this love - kang taehyun
final letter ; kiss me
synopsis: what happens when soccer player!kang taehyun, who isn’t focused on school but is smart enough to pass, sees yn walk in the hallways nearly everyday after homecoming. taehyun’s new hallway crush begins to grow into something bigger, but what happens when he has to make a choice between yn or continuing to fail school ? will taehyun be able to focus on sports, classes, and trying to win yn over ?
Tumblr media
“yn this is so ridiculous.” beomgyu stated, pacing around in your room with you. a slick black tuxedo showed off his more sharper side, the side of beomgyu that would make just about anyone swoon. “you can’t just let him get away with the shit he pulled.
“i’m not letting him get away with anything beomgyu… i’m just making sure he’s serious about all of this.. and maybe i just need to make sure that if he isn’t serious then i won’t feel attached.”
“and you’re doing that by giving him the favor of spending an important night with him ?” beomgyu sighed, he knew that you just wanted to spend the night with taehyun. it was the thing that you were looking forward to throughout the past few months ever since taehyun had promposed, beomgyu knew that. he listened to you ramble on about how much taehyun cared for you and how magical you imagined the night would go. “are you denying the truth or are you lying to me ?”
you turned your head, as beomgyu took a seat next to you. you avoided making eye contact with him.
“i still like him.. beomgyu.. i just..- i know he didn’t have a choice. he did what he thought was good for me, and even if it wasn’t the right thing.. he still put me over his own self. y’know… it’s the thought that has me so stuck up on him. but i don’t want to let him win me over so easily, i want to hate him, but i can’t..” you admit, feeling a bit embarrassed from your confession to beomgyu. which he only put an arm around your shoulder, pulling you in a bit.
“have you talked to sunghoon since y’know.. that day..?” beomgyu hesitantly asked as you pulled away a bit to make eye contact with the boy who sat in front of you.
“no.. i’ve been trying to talk to him but he’s been avoiding me. sunghoon’s a cool person and all, but i don’t think i ever saw him in that way.. y’know ?” you questioned, “even when i wasn’t with taehyun, i think.. i just always saw sunghoon as a friend.”
“don’t feel bad just because you didn’t have the same feelings, yn. that’s probably why sunghoon didn’t tell you, he probably knew that you’d feel so guilty over not liking him back. in fact, im surprised that you didn’t end up with him out of guilt.” beomgyu advised, a tiny smile reappearing on your face. you pulled beomgyu into a tight, warm hug.
“thank you so much, beomgyu.. for like- everything. you’re always looking out for me. and even though you don’t really like taehyun, you’re supporting my feelings.. and you always have.” you can’t help but feel your heart warm up from looking back at just how much beomgyu has been supporting you no matter what. everyone knew beomgyu as a silly guy who took nothing serious, but others knew beomgyu took him as this serious person who always showed empathy to those he loved. however, you knew the real beomgyu, the beomgyu who would give anyone the cold shoulder if they gave you the wrong look. the real beomgyu that constantly gave you a shoulder to cry on and would make you laugh the tears away. beomgyu wasn’t just funny or only sympathetic, beomgyu was a passionate person who cared about his loved ones, he wanted to see them laugh while also being sure to be the supportive person that he always wished to be. and he never failed at making you comfortable, you always felt like you could rant to him, and you always knew that you could tell him a terrible dad joke and he would still give you an impressive laugh which would only prove to be contagious as you would start a fit of laughter.
beomgyu was.. beomgyu. a kind hearted boy who was there for all the people he loved. if you were sure that you wanted to be with taehyun, then he was okay with it.
“that’s what i’m here for ! just, don’t replace me..” beomgyu mumbled into your shoulder. a small huff coming from your mouth as you suddenly pull away from the hug, catching beomgyu completely off guard.
“ha ! as if you’re replaceable !! you’re a one of a kind beomgyu !!” you jokingly argue, seeing beomgyu’s lips grow into a huge grin. just as the two of you were about to get into another rage of laughter, you phone rang, seeing the bolded letters read ‘taehyun 🚫’. you took a look at beomgyu then back at your phone.
“answer it !” beomgyu exclaimed, picking up your phone and handing it to you as you panicked to swipe the green phone button.
“hello..?” taehyun answered the phone wondering why there was no noise coming from your end. he fumbled with the buttons on his tuxedo, being sure to look his nicest for you.
“oh. hi !” you say a bit too aggressively even though you didn’t mean to come off aggressive. you nervously begin to bite at your lip, before stopping due to receiving a cold stare from beomgyu.
“yn.. i’m outside for whenever you’re ready..” taehyun mumbled into the phone, taking out a bouquet from the backseat of his car. he messed around with the petals ensuring that the bouquet looked as lively as it could.
beomgyu gave you one last look, “if you don’t think you can spend the rest of the night with taehyun. just give us as call.. and we’ll be by your side,” you grinned, thanking beomgyu for his kind actions and for offering his shoulder for support. beomgyu had proven himself to be your biggest supporter ever. you give him one final hug before hurrying outside, spotting taehyun. his eyes widened as he took a singular look at you. his heart pounding, his anxiety piling onto him as he took a minute to catch a breath, trying to find words to tell you.
“yn.. you look.. really really pretty..” taehyun complimented, sticking out a bouquet filled with different colored hydrangeas. a tiny smile on his face, he pointed to the pink hydrangeas, “pink hydrangeas are the most romantic flowers… umm.. they also resemble a beating heart..” taehyun mumbled the last part, his own heart beating at a rapid pace. he couldn’t mess this up at all, he had to make you happy no matter what. if you wanted him to spend thousands of dollars on a piece of jewelry then he was willing to go into debt for the rest of his life to make you happy. and taehyun was sure that he’d never regret that decision, especially since it was something that he was doing for you. if you wanted him to truly stay away from you for the rest of your life then he was willing to do so if it was going to make you happy. if there was anything in the world that you wanted or wished to happen, then taehyun was willing to do anything to make it happen.
“thanks..” you sent a tiny and awkward smile towards taehyun’s way. he reached out for your hand, which you hesitantly accepted, on the roof of his car, rested a small box. he opened it, a blue hydrangea peeking its petals out from the box. he picked up the flower from the box, attached to it was a pearly bracelet. taehyun’s placed the corsage onto your wrist. “what does this one mean..” you knew very well what a blue hydrangea meant, but something inside of you wanted to make sure that taehyun was on the same page as you. you needed to know that taehyun didn’t just get a blue hydrangea because he thought it was cute. luckily for you, taehyun did extensive research on hydrangeas, he didn’t stop for the first flower that he found. rather he took time to find a flower that you liked while knowing the meaning behind it.
“so many people agree that blue hydrangeas are really, really pretty.. but personally i’ve said things to you that i don’t mean… things that i regret ever even thinking about saying to you, so.. blue hydrangeas represent regret and apology. i’m sorry for everything i've done to you, sorry for all the pain i’ve caused you.. please be patient with me.” a soft smile appeared on your face, happy to see taehyun pass your test.
“should we just.. forget about everything ?” you asked, so far you were pleased with the way that taehyun was treating you, you were so impressed with everything that taehyun had done for you so far, in all honesty this was just the beginning. you wanted to spend the rest of the night with taehyun, happily. you at least wanted a remarkable prom night, and even though you wanted to hate taehyun, something inside of you just couldn’t bring yourself to truly hate the boy.. that very same thing inside of you told you that taehyun was the only person who could grant you a happy night. “at least for tonight..”
“if it’ll make you happy, we can do anything you’d like.” taehyun grinned, pulling you into a sweetly warm embrace. he grabbed your bouquet, placing it in the backseat of his car, before hurrying over to open the passenger door for you. which you gladly accepted, taking a seat in the passenger’s seat. waiting for him to come over to the driver’s seat, which you didn’t wait long for him to do.
the two of you sat in silence on your way to the venue, not much to say after taehyun had given his apology. you continuously looked at the corsage that taehyun had gifted you, eyes trying to hide just how much you loved it. the smile that you tried to hold back, the one that would give away all just how vulnerable you were to taehyun’s loving actions. everything that he had done so far was telling you exactly just how the night was going to end. how you were going to be back into your romantic dream of a relationship. taehyun noticed the look behind your eyes, a bit of relaxation running through him, his eyes staying on the road, yet a part of him still wanted to turn to look at your flustered state. your focus moved from the corsage to the dark blue sky, attempting to calm your flustered state down. you were nearly worried that taehyun could hear the intense pounding of your heart. it had been such a good minute since you had felt so.. loved.
you caught the passing scenery, beginning to melt into the current warmth that you felt emitting from taehyun and perhaps the nervous yet excited feeling that you felt deep down in your tummy. taehyun put the car in park as soon as he found parking outside the venue. you stepped outside the car, waiting for taehyun patiently as he walked around. hand in hand, the two of you walked towards the entrance of the venue taking out your ticket to show the two teachers who were waiting by the entrance to overlook any kind of people who were sneaking in. as soon as both you and taehyun gave them your names, they nicely welcomed you in, wishing you an amazing night.
“did you eat beforehand ?” taehyun yelled into your ear, attempting to speak over the music. you could barely catch what he was saying, nodding to his question, before asking him the same thing. taehyun just nodded, knowing that he was lying because he just couldn’t bring himself to have a meal, not when he felt so nervous and clammy. this entire time, he had put so much work and effort into your relationship, and all he could wish for was for tonight to go his way.
both you and taehyun spent sometime dancing with each other, quietly. the two of you were too afraid to say anything, afraid to break the oddly calm tension between you two. however, just as you left the dance floor.
you caught sunghoon’s presence, watching as he tried to pass by you and hoping to not grab your attention. however that seemed to fail as you grabbed a hold of his wrist, taehyun watching intently, feeling worried. had he done something wrong ? were you going to ditch him for sunghoon ? his overthinking began to overwhelm him, keeping his hand in yours. hoping that you wouldn’t call him out for his sweaty palms. it was impossible to not notice the clingy hold that taehyun had on your hand, worried that you’d leave him. you gave his hand a reassuring squeeze, pulling him to your side.
“sunghoon ?”
“oh, yn.” you noticed ning ning by his side as she began to feel quite awkward. after sunghoon had discussed everything out with taehyun, he decided to take ning ning out as his friendly prom date. she didn’t mean to avoid you like sunghoon had suggested, but she did want to avoid any question about who she was going to prom with which eventually meant avoiding you and beomgyu, even taehyun as well. for some odd reason, she felt like she was betraying you by agreeing to sunghoon’s promposal.
“can we talk ?” you asked, giving a look between sunghoon and ning, trying to silently propose to talk alone. however you received a returning look from sunghoon to taehyun. you turned to look a him, holding onto his hand. a affirmative smile and a gentle shoulder squeeze was all it took to get him to stop worrying as much as he was. you followed sunghoon off to a more private area, less people surrounding you than where you were previously at. now you were in some sort of hallway that seemed to lead to the restrooms. two windows on the left wall and a painting hung in between the gap of the two windows. a small table underneath the painting.
“what do you want to talk about ?” sunghoon casually questioned, it nearly seemed as if the two of you had no issues to talk out.
“about me and you.. y’know exactly what i want to talk about ?”
“i do ?” sunghoon sarcastically answered, his eyebrow raised as he moved his foot, nearly playing around like a child.
“yes.. y’know, you liking me.. why are you avoiding me ? i’m sorry that i didn’t like you back, but i really loved you as a friend and i just don’t want us to fall apart due to such trivial issues.”
“well to you it may be trivial, yn. but this shit felt like the world to me. i helped you get through your breakup with taehyun and i know that he and i had this whole conversation about how he quite actually has your heart, but you need to give me some space, i can’t just.. i can’t just get over you so quickly. just trust me, a little more time to myself and i promise, we’ll be back to how we used to be, okay ?” he raised his eyebrows one last time before seeing you nod. “okay, don’t ruin your night because of me, i think taehyun wants to dance one last time with you.” sunghoon turned around and made immense eye contact with taehyun as you tried to see where he was looking at, as soon as you spotted taehyun, you went right into his direction. attempting to push through the crowd to get to taehyun, who ended up doing the same thing, meeting him in the middle of the crowd, tiny smiles created.
the two of you followed the crowd, hearing the supervisors countdown to their announcement on prom king and queen. you held taehyun nearby, even playing with his fingers, awaiting for the announcement to be made. the way that the two of you were together fooled everyone, it seemed as if nothing ever happened and as if nothing could ever happen to split the two of you apart. the body language was the same as to when you and taehyun were still together with only a few differences that only the two of you could notice, the only other difference was the lack of words that the two of you were barely exchanging.
“after counting all the votes, tonight’s prom king is..” your principal leads up to the answer asking for a drum roll before quickly announcing, “kang taehyun !!” you clap for the boy, immediately releasing him from your grasp. as he stood there, taking a minute to process everything. you ushered him up to the stage, before attempting to leave.
“yn.. don’t go just yet.” taehyun winked before proceeding to give back the spotlight to your principal. she gave a tiny smile, knowing that taehyun had worked rather hard for his plan to be fulfilled.
“and it’s only fitting to announce that tonight’s prom queen, is none other than, l/n y/n !!” the principal announced, you stood there stunned, seeing taehyun hold out his hand for you. for the past month he had spent time communicating with his close friends and any acquaintances to vote for you and him as both king and queen. spending time persuading his close friends to tell anyone they knew to vote for you. and to be fair, taehyun was the school’s sweetheart, it was impossible to not do as he kindly asked. you hesitantly took his hand, shyly walking up the stage.
you and taehyun had plastic crowns placed on your heads, a tiny smile on your face, unable to believe everything that was happening. you couldn’t believe that even the principal knew all about taehyun’s plan. slow music began to play, as you knew that the prom king and queen had to dance together, the two of you moved down to the center of the dance floor, placing you hand on taehyun’s shoulder, as he placed his hand on your waist. the two of you gently moved to the rhythm as everyone else followed, getting their loved one or even their closest friend and beginning to slow dance with them.
“i want you for worse or for better, i would wait forever and ever. broke your heart, i’ll put it back together.” taehyun nervously whispered into your ear, his hands caressing yours as he pulled away placing a small grin on his face. a ridiculous amount of butterflies filled your stomach, forgetting that you and taehyun were in the center of the dance floor. ignoring all the people around you, a giggle exiting your mouth as you realized exactly what taehyun was saying.
“are you serious ?” you spoke, a smile decorating your face as you looked into taehyun’s eyes. eyes filled with nothing but love for you, nothing you would refuse to accept.
“you’re really pretty.” taehyun commented, his ears beginning to burn after being caught reusing taylor swift lyrics in order to save his own relationship. he changed the subject, fixing the gem-filled crown that rested atop your head. his hand moved to rest on your waist extending the arm that kept your hand in his, his hand left your waist in order to move your hand onto his shoulder, before returning to your waist. as he began to move his feet to the rhythm.
“you’re so cute.” you broke taehyun’s long rampage of silence, a smirk returning to his face as his confidence was beginning to fade back into his life.
“but you’re even cuter.” taehyun brought his hand up to caress your cheek. a comforting atmosphere finally being resettled between the two of you. your trust running back to you, as you took his hand and gently guided him out of the crowded venue, exiting and catching a cold spring breeze. you saw the cherry blossoms that had petals falling off of the branches, already imagining the romance movie-like scene that would be created. taehyun couldn’t help but chuckle at your rather cutely excited state. running to the trees before finally facing him once again, hand in hand. you looked down before bringing your eyes up to his, taehyun looked ethereal in the moonlight, his features being brought to light by the streetlights. light reflecting off of the concrete road.
“so.. you’ve really made me realize so many of things taehyun. one.. you’ve made me realized that i really can’t live without you, even after everything and trying to see you in such a negative light, i had such a hard time hating you because it was just so impossible. it was hard to even think that someone who has loved me and treated me like no one else has ever cared for me could truly just be in this relationship for the academic benefits. another thing that you taught me is that, love truly blinds people. i think that i was so caught up in my own pain that i never really realized or processed the things that you said to me, that you broke up with me for my own good. looking back at it now, i get it, you just didn’t want to see me in pain, but you shouldn’t be the one to decide what happens to me. i know you were looking out for me, but we could’ve spared both of our feelings if we had better communication to begin with.. i shouldn’t have blamed everything on just you, it was also my fault, for not understanding..”
“yn.. you had every right to be upset, i said things to you that i didn’t mean. those things aren’t the best words to hear from someone who’s supposed to love you. just trust me when i say that i didn’t want to say any of that, trust me when i tell you that you’re the person who i, this is gonna sound really cringy and weird.. but i just, i want to spend my future with you..” taehyun frowns, beginning to fear that maybe he was planning way too ahead into the future than you were ready for. you’d never really thought about anything so far into the future as taehyun had. you’d only thought about enjoying the memories you were creating with taehyun. however, the more that taehyun’s words sunk into your mind, the more you realized that a future with taehyun wouldn’t be so bad. in fact, it seemed quite surreal. you could almost imagine it now, waking up next to taehyun, exchanging homemade packed lunches for each other. spending life with each other even through ups and downs, you were nearly sure that taehyun could never purposely want to hurt you. after all, everything that had happened was because of something out of his control. well not exactly, but you knew that if it wasn’t for that then taehyun would’ve never exchanged such cruel words to you.
your hands gave taehyun’s a small affirmative squeeze, looking at him with a wide smile. beginning to reach up onto your tip toes to reach his mouth. your lips pressing against his as you couldn’t help but let your happiness and excitement get the best of you. it was all just so- romantic. you didn’t care if taehyun’s words were cheesy, all you wanted was to make sure that he stuck by his words and that you would be able to spend the rest of your life with him no matter how many hurdles life would throw at the two of you.
you pressed your ear against taehyun’s warm chest. a happy smile resting on your face, a comfortable silence resting in the atmosphere. taehyun’s hands ran through your hair, soft tiny grin decorating his already handsome face.
you couldn’t be any happier, with taehyun back on your side, you knew that all of this was unbelievable. if someone told you in the beginning of the year that you would end up arm in arm with kang taehyun, you would’ve looked at them oddly. you with the school’s athletic sweetheart ? tutoring the sweet boy and getting to know him ? you would’ve been shocked to hear how on the first day of tutoring you would be absolutely enamored by kang taehyun. his once-hallway crush was now in his arms, as his lover. he couldn’t mess this up, he didn’t plan on doing so either.
“what’s your favorite flower..” taehyun questioned one last time.
“pink hydrangeas, it hasn’t changed. yours ?”
“i have a lot, mistletoes, petunias, primrose, lavender roses.. even red tulips.”
you looked at taehyun, feeling so fulfilled by his innocent confession, pressing one last kiss on his lips.

an: this is the last chapter or “letter”…. kinda sad but i had to finish it especially because i felt like i was less dedicated to writing this smau than i was with anti romantic. i just feel like this smau lacked a conflict even though i think it had a stronger conflict. i actually know what im doing for my next smau but i really want to write a good handful of chapters before posting because… i really don’t trust myself to be consistent. i will try to post one shots in between the time that it takes me to finish the smau. hint : it has to do with a poll i did a while ago. ALSO HOW DID YALL LIKE TXT’S COMEBACK ? I LOVE MIRACLE !! also who’s going to see txt !! i’m seeing them both days in rosemont 🤭🤭

the two of you sat in silence on your way to the venue, not much to say after taehyun had given his apology. you continuously looked at the corsage that taehyun had gifted you, eyes trying to hide just how much you loved it. the smile that you tried to hold back, the one that would give away all just how vulnerable you were to taehyun’s loving actions. everything that he had done so far was telling you exactly just how the night was going to end. how you were going to be back into your romantic dream of a relationship. taehyun noticed the look behind your eyes, a bit of relaxation running through him, his eyes staying on the road, yet a part of him still wanted to turn to look at your flustered state. your focus moved from the corsage to the dark blue sky, attempting to calm your flustered state down. you were nearly worried that taehyun could hear the intense pounding of your heart. it had been such a good minute since you had felt so.. loved.
you caught the passing scenery, beginning to melt into the current warmth that you felt emitting from taehyun and perhaps the nervous yet excited feeling that you felt deep down in your tummy. taehyun put the car in park as soon as he found parking outside the venue. you stepped outside the car, waiting for taehyun patiently as he walked around. hand in hand, the two of you walked towards the entrance of the venue taking out your ticket to show the two teachers who were waiting by the entrance to overlook any kind of people who were sneaking in. as soon as both you and taehyun gave them your names, they nicely welcomed you in, wishing you an amazing night.
“did you eat beforehand ?” taehyun yelled into your ear, attempting to speak over the music. you could barely catch what he was saying, nodding to his question, before asking him the same thing. taehyun just nodded, knowing that he was lying because he just couldn’t bring himself to have a meal, not when he felt so nervous and clammy. this entire time, he had put so much work and effort into your relationship, and all he could wish for was for tonight to go his way.
both you and taehyun spent sometime dancing with each other, quietly. the two of you were too afraid to say anything, afraid to break the oddly calm tension between you two. however, just as you left the dance floor.
you caught sunghoon’s presence, watching as he tried to pass by you and hoping to not grab your attention. however that seemed to fail as you grabbed a hold of his wrist, taehyun watching intently, feeling worried. had he done something wrong ? were you going to ditch him for sunghoon ? his overthinking began to overwhelm him, keeping his hand in yours. hoping that you wouldn’t call him out for his sweaty palms. it was impossible to not notice the clingy hold that taehyun had on your hand, worried that you’d leave him. you gave his hand a reassuring squeeze, pulling him to your side.
“sunghoon ?”
“oh, yn.” you noticed ning ning by his side as she began to feel quite awkward. after sunghoon had discussed everything out with taehyun, he decided to take ning ning out as his friendly prom date. she didn’t mean to avoid you like sunghoon had suggested, but she did want to avoid any question about who she was going to prom with which eventually meant avoiding you and beomgyu, even taehyun as well. for some odd reason, she felt like she was betraying you by agreeing to sunghoon’s promposal.
“can we talk ?” you asked, giving a look between sunghoon and ning, trying to silently propose to talk alone. however you received a returning look from sunghoon to taehyun. you turned to look a him, holding onto his hand. a affirmative smile and a gentle shoulder squeeze was all it took to get him to stop worrying as much as he was. you followed sunghoon off to a more private area, less people surrounding you than where you were previously at. now you were in some sort of hallway that seemed to lead to the restrooms. two windows on the left wall and a painting hung in between the gap of the two windows. a small table underneath the painting.
“what do you want to talk about ?” sunghoon casually questioned, it nearly seemed as if the two of you had no issues to talk out.
“about me and you.. y’know exactly what i want to talk about ?”
“i do ?” sunghoon sarcastically answered, his eyebrow raised as he moved his foot, nearly playing around like a child.
“yes.. y’know, you liking me.. why are you avoiding me ? i’m sorry that i didn’t like you back, but i really loved you as a friend and i just don’t want us to fall apart due to such trivial issues.”
“well to you it may be trivial, yn. but this shit felt like the world to me. i helped you get through your breakup with taehyun and i know that he and i had this whole conversation about how he quite actually has your heart, but you need to give me some space, i can’t just.. i can’t just get over you so quickly. just trust me, a little more time to myself and i promise, we’ll be back to how we used to be, okay ?” he raised his eyebrows one last time before seeing you nod. “okay, don’t ruin your night because of me, i think taehyun wants to dance one last time with you.” sunghoon turned around and made immense eye contact with taehyun as you tried to see where he was looking at, as soon as you spotted taehyun, you went right into his direction. attempting to push through the crowd to get to taehyun, who ended up doing the same thing, meeting him in the middle of the crowd, tiny smiles created.
the two of you followed the crowd, hearing the supervisors countdown to their announcement on prom king and queen. you held taehyun nearby, even playing with his fingers, awaiting for the announcement to be made. the way that the two of you were together fooled everyone, it seemed as if nothing ever happened and as if nothing could ever happen to split the two of you apart. the body language was the same as to when you and taehyun were still together with only a few differences that only the two of you could notice, the only other difference was the lack of words that the two of you were barely exchanging.
“after counting all the votes, tonight’s prom king is..” your principal leads up to the answer asking for a drum roll before quickly announcing, “kang taehyun !!” you clap for the boy, immediately releasing him from your grasp. as he stood there, taking a minute to process everything. you ushered him up to the stage, before attempting to leave.
“yn.. don’t go just yet.” taehyun winked before proceeding to give back the spotlight to your principal. she gave a tiny smile, knowing that taehyun had worked rather hard for his plan to be fulfilled.
“and it’s only fitting to announce that tonight’s prom queen, is none other than, l/n y/n !!” the principal announced, you stood there stunned, seeing taehyun hold out his hand for you. for the past month he had spent time communicating with his close friends and any acquaintances to vote for you and him as both king and queen. spending time persuading his close friends to tell anyone they knew to vote for you. and to be fair, taehyun was the school’s sweetheart, it was impossible to not do as he kindly asked. you hesitantly took his hand, shyly walking up the stage.
you and taehyun had plastic crowns placed on your heads, a tiny smile on your face, unable to believe everything that was happening. you couldn’t believe that even the principal knew all about taehyun’s plan. slow music began to play, as you knew that the prom king and queen had to dance together, the two of you moved down to the center of the dance floor, placing you hand on taehyun’s shoulder, as he placed his hand on your waist. the two of you gently moved to the rhythm as everyone else followed, getting their loved one or even their closest friend and beginning to slow dance with them.
“i want you for worse or for better, i would wait forever and ever. broke your heart, i’ll put it back together.” taehyun nervously whispered into your ear, his hands caressing yours as he pulled away placing a small grin on his face. a ridiculous amount of butterflies filled your stomach, forgetting that you and taehyun were in the center of the dance floor. ignoring all the people around you, a giggle exiting your mouth as you realized exactly what taehyun was saying.
“are you serious ?” you spoke, a smile decorating your face as you looked into taehyun’s eyes. eyes filled with nothing but love for you, nothing you would refuse to accept.
“you’re really pretty.” taehyun commented, his ears beginning to burn after being caught reusing taylor swift lyrics in order to save his own relationship. he changed the subject, fixing the gem-filled crown that rested atop your head. his hand moved to rest on your waist extending the arm that kept your hand in his, his hand left your waist in order to move your hand onto his shoulder, before returning to your waist. as he began to move his feet to the rhythm.
“you’re so cute.” you broke taehyun’s long rampage of silence, a smirk returning to his face as his confidence was beginning to fade back into his life.
“but you’re even cuter.” taehyun brought his hand up to caress your cheek. a comforting atmosphere finally being resettled between the two of you. your trust running back to you, as you took his hand and gently guided him out of the crowded venue, exiting and catching a cold spring breeze. you saw the cherry blossoms that had petals falling off of the branches, already imagining the romance movie-like scene that would be created. taehyun couldn’t help but chuckle at your rather cutely excited state. running to the trees before finally facing him once again, hand in hand. you looked down before bringing your eyes up to his, taehyun looked ethereal in the moonlight, his features being brought to light by the streetlights. light reflecting off of the concrete road.
“so.. you’ve really made me realize so many of things taehyun. one.. you’ve made me realized that i really can’t live without you, even after everything and trying to see you in such a negative light, i had such a hard time hating you because it was just so impossible. it was hard to even think that someone who has loved me and treated me like no one else has ever cared for me could truly just be in this relationship for the academic benefits. another thing that you taught me is that, love truly blinds people. i think that i was so caught up in my own pain that i never really realized or processed the things that you said to me, that you broke up with me for my own good. looking back at it now, i get it, you just didn’t want to see me in pain, but you shouldn’t be the one to decide what happens to me. i know you were looking out for me, but we could’ve spared both of our feelings if we had better communication to begin with.. i shouldn’t have blamed everything on just you, it was also my fault, for not understanding..”
“yn.. you had every right to be upset, i said things to you that i didn’t mean. those things aren’t the best words to hear from someone who’s supposed to love you. just trust me when i say that i didn’t want to say any of that, trust me when i tell you that you’re the person who i, this is gonna sound really cringy and weird.. but i just, i want to spend my future with you..” taehyun frowns, beginning to fear that maybe he was planning way too ahead into the future than you were ready for. you’d never really thought about anything so far into the future as taehyun had. you’d only thought about enjoying the memories you were creating with taehyun. however, the more that taehyun’s words sunk into your mind, the more you realized that a future with taehyun wouldn’t be so bad. in fact, it seemed quite surreal. you could almost imagine it now, waking up next to taehyun, exchanging homemade packed lunches for each other. spending life with each other even through ups and downs, you were nearly sure that taehyun could never purposely want to hurt you. after all, everything that had happened was because of something out of his control. well not exactly, but you knew that if it wasn’t for that then taehyun would’ve never exchanged such cruel words to you.
your hands gave taehyun’s a small affirmative squeeze, looking at him with a wide smile. beginning to reach up onto your tip toes to reach his mouth. your lips pressing against his as you couldn’t help but let your happiness and excitement get the best of you. it was all just so- romantic. you didn’t care if taehyun’s words were cheesy, all you wanted was to make sure that he stuck by his words and that you would be able to spend the rest of your life with him no matter how many hurdles life would throw at the two of you.
you pressed your ear against taehyun’s warm chest. a happy smile resting on your face, a comfortable silence resting in the atmosphere. taehyun’s hands ran through your hair, soft tiny grin decorating his already handsome face.
you couldn’t be any happier, with taehyun back on your side, you knew that all of this was unbelievable. if someone told you in the beginning of the year that you would end up arm in arm with kang taehyun, you would’ve looked at them oddly. you with the school’s athletic sweetheart ? tutoring the sweet boy and getting to know him ? you would’ve been shocked to hear how on the first day of tutoring you would be absolutely enamored by kang taehyun. his once-hallway crush was now in his arms, as his lover. he couldn’t mess this up, he didn’t plan on doing so either.
“what’s your favorite flower..” taehyun questioned one last time.
“pink hydrangeas, it hasn’t changed. yours ?”
“i have a lot, mistletoes, petunias, primrose, lavender roses.. even red tulips.”
you looked at taehyun, feeling so fulfilled by his innocent confession, pressing one last kiss on his lips.

an: this is the last chapter or “letter”…. kinda sad but i had to finish it especially because i felt like i was less dedicated to writing this smau than i was with anti romantic. i just feel like this smau lacked a conflict even though i think it had a stronger conflict. i actually know what im doing for my next smau but i really want to write a good handful of chapters before posting because… i really don’t trust myself to be consistent. i will try to post one shots in between the time that it takes me to finish the smau. hint : it has to do with a poll i did a while ago. ALSO HOW DID YALL LIKE TXT’S COMEBACK ? I LOVE MIRACLE !! also who’s going to see txt !! i’m seeing them both days in rosemont 🤭🤭

this love - kang taehyun
letter 18 ; it only feels this rough right now.
synopsis: what happens when soccer player!kang taehyun, who isn’t focused on school but is smart enough to pass, sees yn walk in the hallways nearly everyday after homecoming. taehyun’s new hallway crush begins to grow into something bigger, but what happens when he has to make a choice between yn or continuing to fail school ? will taehyun be able to focus on sports, classes, and trying to win yn over ?
Tumblr media
sunghoon’s giddy steps carried him to his lunch table, wide grin on his face as he took a seat in front of his friend. observing his friend, noticing that heeseung’s eyes were completely distracted in something else.. in someone else. he turned around trying to see where heeseung’s line of direction led him to. he watched as taehyun walked by with an arm around nari, two gleeful expressions on each other’s faces. however the happier the couple appeared, the more upset heeseung seemed to become.
“they’re so fake..” heeseung muttered, grabbing a fry from sunghoon’s tray and throwing it into his mouth. sunghoon just watched as the boy continued to rant about the couple. sunghoon didn’t really agree with heeseung, he thought nari and taehyun were a cute couple who had a great relationship. “he’s so obsessed with soccer, i’m nearly convinced that he has no thoughts outside the sport.” heeseung rolled his eyes as he took a sip of his own water, eyes still trailing taehyun.
“does.. it really matter ?” sunghoon questioned, raising his eyebrow at heeseung before continuing to eat his fries which were the best part of his lunch, there was no way the school would be able to ruin the fries, and they didn’t. the fries were quite tasty as long as you had them with some sort of condiment, they were perfectly golden and crispy.
“it matters if you care about nari at all, or if you even have an inch of sympathy in your own life. how could you not care about someone whose clearly being toyed with..” sunghoon let out a sigh as heeseung’s comment, knowing that in reality heeseung had no kind of concern for nari. sunghoon began to observe the lunchroom, before making eye contact with you, you sent a small wave his way. which sunghoon gladly sent a reciprocated motion back. his mood brightening a bit, he had talked to you a bit in class along with beomgyu, and he truly felt a bit jealous in your friendship. a friendship that truly was built off of your trust for one another, a bond where the two of you simply just listened to each other ramble for hours. sunghoon wished his friendship with heeseung could be that pure.
a few days later, sunghoon was absentmindedly walking to class. sighing as he realized that he wasn’t even halfway through the week, thinking about the drama between nari and taehyun arising, wondering if heeseung was right the entire time. however, he snapped out of his thoughts as he felt a hand on his shoulder, turning around to see taehyun with a rather angry stare. “let’s walk each other to class, sunghoon.” taehyun tried his best to put on a fake smile, attempting to convince sunghoon that nothing was going to be wrong or that there was no issue between the two of them. the two of them walked side by side together. small hums coming from sunghoon as he felt a bit threatened by taehyun’s presence. “you have any idea over what heeseung did ?” taehyun asked, sunghoon shook his head, before stopping in the middle of the hallway, taehyun paused in his steps and turned over to look at him.
“.. did he break the two of you up.. you and nari ?” taehyun just nodded, an upset expression resting on his face, brows furrowing. “i mean.. i knew he was obsessed with the two of you.. but i just.. never thought he’d get this out of hand.. i’m sorry..”
“for what ? you’re not the one who did it.” taehyun scoffed, rolling his eyes at sunghoon’s apology. “and for some odd reason, i don’t think you’re lying.. so..”
sunghoon rushed to take a seat across from heeseung. “you really can’t keep fucking doing this heeseung.” sunghoon scolded, sighing when he saw the boy attempting to ignore him. “breaking nari and taehyun up ? that’s so fucking shitty of you. i get that you don’t like taehyun, but taking it this far ? i get that you like nari and because of that.. you don’t like taehyun, but that doesn’t give you the right to split them apart. i don’t care if it was going to happen either way because who are you to say that any of this was supposed to happen.”
“tell me exactly what i did wrong..” heeseung laid back in his chair, a furrowing his brows. “you know nothing about me..”
sunghoon explained the entire situation with you, legs crossed, sitting up straight as you stayed in your spot on your bed. your blanket warming up your entire body as you weren’t sure how to feel with the entire situation. you didn’t really feel your sentiment towards taehyun change. “i was friends with heeseung, but i, i slowly just distanced myself from him. that’s when i became friends with you and beomgyu.”
sunghoon felt quite hesitant to continue, the next few things that he planned on saying weren’t really his words to tell you, but he knew taehyun wouldn’t mind, in fact he’d be happy if he knew that sunghoon was going to put in a good word for him. “but the other night.. the night when taehyun broke up with you.. i saw heeseung sneak into the changing room. and i know you might hate me for this.. but im completely understanding why taehyun did what he did.. but i think that what happened is something the two of you should discuss.. i just think taehyun deserves a second chance, maybe just listen to what he has to say..” sunghoon stopped himself from saying anything else, knowing that you and taehyun actually just had to speak things out.
“then tell me.. tell me why yn started doubting everything after you ran up to them spewing nonsense about taehyun. and it all happened the day that you talked to taehyun in the locker rooms… and the same day that you ‘coincidentally’ ran into yn after bothering them through messages.” sunghoon had a sarcastic tone in his voice. “so please enlighten me on what i exactly missed out on..”
heeseung stood up from his seat, “you’re really testing your limits here, sunghoon.. you’re suddenly on taehyun’s side ?”
“i’m on taehyun’s side because your selfishness ended up hurting my best friend.. you’re acting as if this same scenario didn’t occur already, y’know, when you decided to break up taehyun and nari.” at this point, heads were beginning to turn.
“since when did you care so much about yn-“
“i cared about yn the moment they showed me more care than you ever did !.. i cared about my friendship with yn and beomgyu because they looked over me more than you ever even showed interest in me.” your own head turned at the mention of your name. seeing sunghoon in the middle of an argument with heeseung. “be serious, heeseung. move on.. in the end nari didn’t like you to begin with.”
that was heeseung’s trigger, a punch being thrown towards sunghoon’s face. which sunghoon soon retaliated the move. as you ran over, attempting to help sunghoon calm down. taehyun made his way over to sunghoon too, pulling him back as someone else aided heeseung on his way out of the crowd. once you had officially separated sunghoon from heeseung, the three of you sat down elsewhere, unknowingly being led to the stairwell, knowing that there was going to be some kind of school admin that was going to confront sunghoon on the entire situation. however, you were glad you made it to sunghoon before it got too serious.
“are you okay..?” you whispered, heart beating a little quicker than usual, nervousness from the situation still lingering. you were truly worried about sunghoon, the worry wouldn’t stop even though he was already just away from any harm. placing a hand on his shoulder, caressing his back just to make him feel at peace with everything.
“i’m fine.” sunghoon shook off your hand, awkwardly returning it to your side. taehyun stood up from the stairs, dusting off his back. pulling out a hand for you.
“i think he needs just some time to calm down..” taehyun tried to put on a comforting smile but it only came off as an awkward grin. you looked at his hand, refusing to take it and getting up on your own.
“just let me know when you’re ready..” you got up and left the stairwell, leaving taehyun behind on his own with sunghoon. taehyun sat down next to sunghoon again, not taking his own advice.
“you should go after yn…” sunghoon mumbled as he messed around with his fingers.
“i should, but i don’t want to make things worse.. but thanks for confronting heeseung.”
“it wasn’t for you.. well you already know that i was friends with him, during that time he was just so.. so petty and i couldn’t get along with him, but i just kept my mouth closed.. it was more for yn than it was for you.”
“mm.. atleast you had me a little bit in your thoughts when you punched him back ! i’m not gonna lie sunghoon, that was pretty impressive, it was so hard to pull you away too, i kind of didn’t even want to pull you away because it was kinda satisfying to see heeseung face his reprocussions. i’ve always wanted to just throw a punch, but i didn’t want to get in trouble by my coach..”
“well what prevented you from doing so today ?”
“i don’t know… something about heeseung… sunghoon ?” the boy just hummed in response, his chin resting on his hand, arm balanced on his knee.
“do you like yn..?”
taehyun straightforwardly questioned, a serious tone in his voice. sunghoon felt his heart drop, . tension building up, so thick that it nearly felt unbreakable, no kind of reassurance could stop the tense atmosphere, and in reality, sunghoon didn’t feel like lying.
“yeah..”
sunghoon paused. his heart was racing quite quickly. anxiousness causing his leg to bounce as he felt like he was becoming quite sweaty. “but.. yn likes you and im not getting in the middle of that..”
“so you apologize to me for heeseung’s actions, you confront heeseung for everything, you comfort yn after i broke their heart.. just how selfless are you..? i’ve done nothing but hurt yn.. you’ve at least.. you’ve helped yn.” taehyun could feel his jaw clench..
however, sunghoon couldn’t help but let out a small laugh as taehyun’s praises, but he stopped laughing as he commented, “taehyun.. you made yn happier than i’ve ever seen. i think you deserve to prove yourself. plus im moving on, think it’s time that i find my true self before even thinking about someone else.. i’ve always just been a follower, doing what everyone else loves like heeseung and yn.. but i think i’m gonna see what i like. plus, i bet you yn’s waiting for you, so hurry and go find them.”
taehyun just nodded, silently standing up and leaving the stairwell, not expecting to see you across the door, waiting for him. “you waited for me ?”
“i didn’t wait for you, i waited for you to leave sunghoon alone..” you stated, knowing completely well that you were waiting for taehyun the entire time. you hoped that even though you were giving him the cold shoulder, you wished that maybe he saw the hints of true love that was masked behind your cold persona.
“you heard everything.. huh ?” taehyun grinned, taking a look over towards you. a kitten-like smile on his face. you just nodded, ears turning red like a tomato after being caught. your eyes looked elsewhere, embarrassment taking over.
“and ??” taehyun led, practically asking you for your thoughts.
“and… i’m upset that you’d be so willing to hand me over so easily, especially when it’s my choice at the end of the day..” you frowned, letting out a particularly heavy sigh. “just like how you made that decision that heeseung threatened you with all on your own.. did you even care about how i would feel ? or did you just not want any of my pain in your hands ? did you not want to see me get side comments everyday just because you decided to be selfish ?”
“yn.. you don’t get it.. i wanted you to be happier, i wanted you to be a lot happier and if i have to destroy myself over your happiness then im okay with that. and yes ! my guilt would’ve eaten me alive if i let you deal with any kind of pain… and i know i sound contradicting but.. if i could, i would’ve gone back in time to take back all those words i said to you, but for some reason, during the moment.. my mind just went blank, and breaking up with you sounded better than ever letting you hear such things about you.. and i get it, again, i sound really contradicting, but i thought it would’ve been easier for you to hate me than to go through that every single day !”
“that’s ironic because for some reason it’s harder to hate you than to deal with any kind of rumor about me.. and that would’ve died out a one point..” you argued back, “if heeseung would’ve come up to me, i would’ve just threatened him back, why is heeseung even such a big threat ! is he really that bad ! seriously, what could he even do to ‘hurt me’, did you even think it through ?”
“well would you have thought it through if somebody came up to you asking if you would breakup with me to save me from harm !”
“well when you put it like that, yes i would, but you didn’t specify what kind of harm !” you argued, crossing your arms. a sigh left taehyun’s mouth, the entire argument had felt a bit unserious even though the two of you had been talking genuinely, every single word had a true meaning behind them. “did heeseung specify ?”
“look yn..” taehyun stopped himself, trying to think of a way to explain his feelings and decision. “yes.. he did.. but you have to understand that when i hear that he was going to hurt you.. the worst thoughts came to my head and it’s not like i had time to think it over. i had a game to win, i wanted to impress you for what seemed like the last time i would be able to.” there was a change in taehyun’s tone, a moment that truly made you feel sympathy for him. even though sunghoon told you a synopsis of what occurred, you felt somewhat better, but you still felt like taehyun did you completely wrong. plus, the words that he said to you were completely hurtful. “i love you, i fucking hate seeing you despise me, i hated the idea of you hating me, and now that it’s here, it sucks.. it hurts me to see you avoid me at all times when you used to run up to me and show me all the love in the world. and i hate how it had to be me who said those things to you, i hate how you have to hate me because things that i chose to say. i hate how even now when we’re arguing over whose right, you still have a clear mind and you’re obviously right. i should’ve chosen you, i should’ve stayed with you, i should’ve, i could’ve and i would’ve. but i didn’t. and because of my of decisions, you’re hurting and you’re in pain because of me, because of someone who is supposed to love you till the end of the world, because of someone who loves you more than they could ever show you. but now you’re regretting everything because of me, you’re regretting everything because i said things that would obviously make you second guess our entire relationship… i just wish, i wish that i could go back in time, tell you the truth and kiss your worries away.
i wish that i could make you go back to your happy days, the days where we would share smiles and giggles. the days where we would do nothing but just cuddle after having a picnic, those days where i would have to protect you from a harmless bee. when you would hide behind me and pretend like your life depended on it.” taehyun let out a little laugh while bringing up the situation where you hid right in his arms after hearing a small, faint buzz after spotting a black and yellow bug flying around. “y’know.. i never meant any of the things that i said that day.. giving you the spot as my favorite supporter, it wasn’t because it was to ‘reward you’ i just.. i wanted to show you off to the world, wanted to show everyone that i was yours..”
“and im just supposed to trust your word-“
“yes, you are.. because if i meant any of the things that i said, then.. i wouldn’t be trying so hard to win you back.. i would have turned a complete blind eye to you. would’ve pretended like nothing ever happened.. but i didn’t. i’m right here standing right in front of you. i’m right here explaining why you should take me back, im here practically begging you to love me. do you think someone who truly didn’t want anything to do with you would do any of this ?” taehyun ironically asked, knowing the answer to his own answer and he knew that you were rethinking his words. and you were fully digesting the thought of taehyun still loving you, the thought finally settling into your mind, that was until beomgyu came up to the two of you. a deadly side glare already targeting taehyun. he already wasn’t a fan of the fact that you were standing here with taehyun.
“and what are you doing here ?” beomgyu asked, nearly in a strict father-like tone. his eyes looking at taehyun up and down with a judgemental expression sitting on his face.
“i just came to help yn calm down sunghoon..” for some reason taehyun was caving under beomgyu’s pressure. he felt embarrassed to be standing in front of beomgyu after everything he’s done to you, even though you knew the truth, taehyun couldn’t help but think if there truly was a way around this entire mess.
beomgyu took one single look at you before signaling that you two should just leave and catch up with sunghoon later. you just followed beomgyu as he turned his back and walked away, you couldn’t help but turn to see taehyun.
“wait.. yn !!” he called out, as you stopped in the middle of the hallway, beomgyu turning around and stopping as he saw you just standing there. “i’ll make it all up to you at prom, i promise, just.. be my date !?”

this love - kang taehyun
letter 18 ; it only feels this rough right now.
synopsis: what happens when soccer player!kang taehyun, who isn’t focused on school but is smart enough to pass, sees yn walk in the hallways nearly everyday after homecoming. taehyun’s new hallway crush begins to grow into something bigger, but what happens when he has to make a choice between yn or continuing to fail school ? will taehyun be able to focus on sports, classes, and trying to win yn over ?
Tumblr media
sunghoon’s giddy steps carried him to his lunch table, wide grin on his face as he took a seat in front of his friend. observing his friend, noticing that heeseung’s eyes were completely distracted in something else.. in someone else. he turned around trying to see where heeseung’s line of direction led him to. he watched as taehyun walked by with an arm around nari, two gleeful expressions on each other’s faces. however the happier the couple appeared, the more upset heeseung seemed to become.
“they’re so fake..” heeseung muttered, grabbing a fry from sunghoon’s tray and throwing it into his mouth. sunghoon just watched as the boy continued to rant about the couple. sunghoon didn’t really agree with heeseung, he thought nari and taehyun were a cute couple who had a great relationship. “he’s so obsessed with soccer, i’m nearly convinced that he has no thoughts outside the sport.” heeseung rolled his eyes as he took a sip of his own water, eyes still trailing taehyun.
“does.. it really matter ?” sunghoon questioned, raising his eyebrow at heeseung before continuing to eat his fries which were the best part of his lunch, there was no way the school would be able to ruin the fries, and they didn’t. the fries were quite tasty as long as you had them with some sort of condiment, they were perfectly golden and crispy.
“it matters if you care about nari at all, or if you even have an inch of sympathy in your own life. how could you not care about someone whose clearly being toyed with..” sunghoon let out a sigh as heeseung’s comment, knowing that in reality heeseung had no kind of concern for nari. sunghoon began to observe the lunchroom, before making eye contact with you, you sent a small wave his way. which sunghoon gladly sent a reciprocated motion back. his mood brightening a bit, he had talked to you a bit in class along with beomgyu, and he truly felt a bit jealous in your friendship. a friendship that truly was built off of your trust for one another, a bond where the two of you simply just listened to each other ramble for hours. sunghoon wished his friendship with heeseung could be that pure.
a few days later, sunghoon was absentmindedly walking to class. sighing as he realized that he wasn’t even halfway through the week, thinking about the drama between nari and taehyun arising, wondering if heeseung was right the entire time. however, he snapped out of his thoughts as he felt a hand on his shoulder, turning around to see taehyun with a rather angry stare. “let’s walk each other to class, sunghoon.” taehyun tried his best to put on a fake smile, attempting to convince sunghoon that nothing was going to be wrong or that there was no issue between the two of them. the two of them walked side by side together. small hums coming from sunghoon as he felt a bit threatened by taehyun’s presence. “you have any idea over what heeseung did ?” taehyun asked, sunghoon shook his head, before stopping in the middle of the hallway, taehyun paused in his steps and turned over to look at him.
“.. did he break the two of you up.. you and nari ?” taehyun just nodded, an upset expression resting on his face, brows furrowing. “i mean.. i knew he was obsessed with the two of you.. but i just.. never thought he’d get this out of hand.. i’m sorry..”
“for what ? you’re not the one who did it.” taehyun scoffed, rolling his eyes at sunghoon’s apology. “and for some odd reason, i don’t think you’re lying.. so..”
sunghoon rushed to take a seat across from heeseung. “you really can’t keep fucking doing this heeseung.” sunghoon scolded, sighing when he saw the boy attempting to ignore him. “breaking nari and taehyun up ? that’s so fucking shitty of you. i get that you don’t like taehyun, but taking it this far ? i get that you like nari and because of that.. you don’t like taehyun, but that doesn’t give you the right to split them apart. i don’t care if it was going to happen either way because who are you to say that any of this was supposed to happen.”
“tell me exactly what i did wrong..” heeseung laid back in his chair, a furrowing his brows. “you know nothing about me..”
sunghoon explained the entire situation with you, legs crossed, sitting up straight as you stayed in your spot on your bed. your blanket warming up your entire body as you weren’t sure how to feel with the entire situation. you didn’t really feel your sentiment towards taehyun change. “i was friends with heeseung, but i, i slowly just distanced myself from him. that’s when i became friends with you and beomgyu.”
sunghoon felt quite hesitant to continue, the next few things that he planned on saying weren’t really his words to tell you, but he knew taehyun wouldn’t mind, in fact he’d be happy if he knew that sunghoon was going to put in a good word for him. “but the other night.. the night when taehyun broke up with you.. i saw heeseung sneak into the changing room. and i know you might hate me for this.. but im completely understanding why taehyun did what he did.. but i think that what happened is something the two of you should discuss.. i just think taehyun deserves a second chance, maybe just listen to what he has to say..” sunghoon stopped himself from saying anything else, knowing that you and taehyun actually just had to speak things out.
“then tell me.. tell me why yn started doubting everything after you ran up to them spewing nonsense about taehyun. and it all happened the day that you talked to taehyun in the locker rooms… and the same day that you ‘coincidentally’ ran into yn after bothering them through messages.” sunghoon had a sarcastic tone in his voice. “so please enlighten me on what i exactly missed out on..”
heeseung stood up from his seat, “you’re really testing your limits here, sunghoon.. you’re suddenly on taehyun’s side ?”
“i’m on taehyun’s side because your selfishness ended up hurting my best friend.. you’re acting as if this same scenario didn’t occur already, y’know, when you decided to break up taehyun and nari.” at this point, heads were beginning to turn.
“since when did you care so much about yn-“
“i cared about yn the moment they showed me more care than you ever did !.. i cared about my friendship with yn and beomgyu because they looked over me more than you ever even showed interest in me.” your own head turned at the mention of your name. seeing sunghoon in the middle of an argument with heeseung. “be serious, heeseung. move on.. in the end nari didn’t like you to begin with.”
that was heeseung’s trigger, a punch being thrown towards sunghoon’s face. which sunghoon soon retaliated the move. as you ran over, attempting to help sunghoon calm down. taehyun made his way over to sunghoon too, pulling him back as someone else aided heeseung on his way out of the crowd. once you had officially separated sunghoon from heeseung, the three of you sat down elsewhere, unknowingly being led to the stairwell, knowing that there was going to be some kind of school admin that was going to confront sunghoon on the entire situation. however, you were glad you made it to sunghoon before it got too serious.
“are you okay..?” you whispered, heart beating a little quicker than usual, nervousness from the situation still lingering. you were truly worried about sunghoon, the worry wouldn’t stop even though he was already just away from any harm. placing a hand on his shoulder, caressing his back just to make him feel at peace with everything.
“i’m fine.” sunghoon shook off your hand, awkwardly returning it to your side. taehyun stood up from the stairs, dusting off his back. pulling out a hand for you.
“i think he needs just some time to calm down..” taehyun tried to put on a comforting smile but it only came off as an awkward grin. you looked at his hand, refusing to take it and getting up on your own.
“just let me know when you’re ready..” you got up and left the stairwell, leaving taehyun behind on his own with sunghoon. taehyun sat down next to sunghoon again, not taking his own advice.
“you should go after yn…” sunghoon mumbled as he messed around with his fingers.
“i should, but i don’t want to make things worse.. but thanks for confronting heeseung.”
“it wasn’t for you.. well you already know that i was friends with him, during that time he was just so.. so petty and i couldn’t get along with him, but i just kept my mouth closed.. it was more for yn than it was for you.”
“mm.. atleast you had me a little bit in your thoughts when you punched him back ! i’m not gonna lie sunghoon, that was pretty impressive, it was so hard to pull you away too, i kind of didn’t even want to pull you away because it was kinda satisfying to see heeseung face his reprocussions. i’ve always wanted to just throw a punch, but i didn’t want to get in trouble by my coach..”
“well what prevented you from doing so today ?”
“i don’t know… something about heeseung… sunghoon ?” the boy just hummed in response, his chin resting on his hand, arm balanced on his knee.
“do you like yn..?”
taehyun straightforwardly questioned, a serious tone in his voice. sunghoon felt his heart drop, . tension building up, so thick that it nearly felt unbreakable, no kind of reassurance could stop the tense atmosphere, and in reality, sunghoon didn’t feel like lying.
“yeah..”
sunghoon paused. his heart was racing quite quickly. anxiousness causing his leg to bounce as he felt like he was becoming quite sweaty. “but.. yn likes you and im not getting in the middle of that..”
“so you apologize to me for heeseung’s actions, you confront heeseung for everything, you comfort yn after i broke their heart.. just how selfless are you..? i’ve done nothing but hurt yn.. you’ve at least.. you’ve helped yn.” taehyun could feel his jaw clench..
however, sunghoon couldn’t help but let out a small laugh as taehyun’s praises, but he stopped laughing as he commented, “taehyun.. you made yn happier than i’ve ever seen. i think you deserve to prove yourself. plus im moving on, think it’s time that i find my true self before even thinking about someone else.. i’ve always just been a follower, doing what everyone else loves like heeseung and yn.. but i think i’m gonna see what i like. plus, i bet you yn’s waiting for you, so hurry and go find them.”
taehyun just nodded, silently standing up and leaving the stairwell, not expecting to see you across the door, waiting for him. “you waited for me ?”
“i didn’t wait for you, i waited for you to leave sunghoon alone..” you stated, knowing completely well that you were waiting for taehyun the entire time. you hoped that even though you were giving him the cold shoulder, you wished that maybe he saw the hints of true love that was masked behind your cold persona.
“you heard everything.. huh ?” taehyun grinned, taking a look over towards you. a kitten-like smile on his face. you just nodded, ears turning red like a tomato after being caught. your eyes looked elsewhere, embarrassment taking over.
“and ??” taehyun led, practically asking you for your thoughts.
“and… i’m upset that you’d be so willing to hand me over so easily, especially when it’s my choice at the end of the day..” you frowned, letting out a particularly heavy sigh. “just like how you made that decision that heeseung threatened you with all on your own.. did you even care about how i would feel ? or did you just not want any of my pain in your hands ? did you not want to see me get side comments everyday just because you decided to be selfish ?”
“yn.. you don’t get it.. i wanted you to be happier, i wanted you to be a lot happier and if i have to destroy myself over your happiness then im okay with that. and yes ! my guilt would’ve eaten me alive if i let you deal with any kind of pain… and i know i sound contradicting but.. if i could, i would’ve gone back in time to take back all those words i said to you, but for some reason, during the moment.. my mind just went blank, and breaking up with you sounded better than ever letting you hear such things about you.. and i get it, again, i sound really contradicting, but i thought it would’ve been easier for you to hate me than to go through that every single day !”
“that’s ironic because for some reason it’s harder to hate you than to deal with any kind of rumor about me.. and that would’ve died out a one point..” you argued back, “if heeseung would’ve come up to me, i would’ve just threatened him back, why is heeseung even such a big threat ! is he really that bad ! seriously, what could he even do to ‘hurt me’, did you even think it through ?”
“well would you have thought it through if somebody came up to you asking if you would breakup with me to save me from harm !”
“well when you put it like that, yes i would, but you didn’t specify what kind of harm !” you argued, crossing your arms. a sigh left taehyun’s mouth, the entire argument had felt a bit unserious even though the two of you had been talking genuinely, every single word had a true meaning behind them. “did heeseung specify ?”
“look yn..” taehyun stopped himself, trying to think of a way to explain his feelings and decision. “yes.. he did.. but you have to understand that when i hear that he was going to hurt you.. the worst thoughts came to my head and it’s not like i had time to think it over. i had a game to win, i wanted to impress you for what seemed like the last time i would be able to.” there was a change in taehyun’s tone, a moment that truly made you feel sympathy for him. even though sunghoon told you a synopsis of what occurred, you felt somewhat better, but you still felt like taehyun did you completely wrong. plus, the words that he said to you were completely hurtful. “i love you, i fucking hate seeing you despise me, i hated the idea of you hating me, and now that it’s here, it sucks.. it hurts me to see you avoid me at all times when you used to run up to me and show me all the love in the world. and i hate how it had to be me who said those things to you, i hate how you have to hate me because things that i chose to say. i hate how even now when we’re arguing over whose right, you still have a clear mind and you’re obviously right. i should’ve chosen you, i should’ve stayed with you, i should’ve, i could’ve and i would’ve. but i didn’t. and because of my of decisions, you’re hurting and you’re in pain because of me, because of someone who is supposed to love you till the end of the world, because of someone who loves you more than they could ever show you. but now you’re regretting everything because of me, you’re regretting everything because i said things that would obviously make you second guess our entire relationship… i just wish, i wish that i could go back in time, tell you the truth and kiss your worries away.
i wish that i could make you go back to your happy days, the days where we would share smiles and giggles. the days where we would do nothing but just cuddle after having a picnic, those days where i would have to protect you from a harmless bee. when you would hide behind me and pretend like your life depended on it.” taehyun let out a little laugh while bringing up the situation where you hid right in his arms after hearing a small, faint buzz after spotting a black and yellow bug flying around. “y’know.. i never meant any of the things that i said that day.. giving you the spot as my favorite supporter, it wasn’t because it was to ‘reward you’ i just.. i wanted to show you off to the world, wanted to show everyone that i was yours..”
“and im just supposed to trust your word-“
“yes, you are.. because if i meant any of the things that i said, then.. i wouldn’t be trying so hard to win you back.. i would have turned a complete blind eye to you. would’ve pretended like nothing ever happened.. but i didn’t. i’m right here standing right in front of you. i’m right here explaining why you should take me back, im here practically begging you to love me. do you think someone who truly didn’t want anything to do with you would do any of this ?” taehyun ironically asked, knowing the answer to his own answer and he knew that you were rethinking his words. and you were fully digesting the thought of taehyun still loving you, the thought finally settling into your mind, that was until beomgyu came up to the two of you. a deadly side glare already targeting taehyun. he already wasn’t a fan of the fact that you were standing here with taehyun.
“and what are you doing here ?” beomgyu asked, nearly in a strict father-like tone. his eyes looking at taehyun up and down with a judgemental expression sitting on his face.
“i just came to help yn calm down sunghoon..” for some reason taehyun was caving under beomgyu’s pressure. he felt embarrassed to be standing in front of beomgyu after everything he’s done to you, even though you knew the truth, taehyun couldn’t help but think if there truly was a way around this entire mess.
beomgyu took one single look at you before signaling that you two should just leave and catch up with sunghoon later. you just followed beomgyu as he turned his back and walked away, you couldn’t help but turn to see taehyun.
“wait.. yn !!” he called out, as you stopped in the middle of the hallway, beomgyu turning around and stopping as he saw you just standing there. “i’ll make it all up to you at prom, i promise, just.. be my date !?”

this love - kang taehyun
letter 17 ; long live all the magic we made
synopsis: what happens when soccer player!kang taehyun, who isn’t focused on school but is smart enough to pass, sees yn walk in the hallways nearly everyday after homecoming. taehyun’s new hallway crush begins to grow into something bigger, but what happens when he has to make a choice between yn or continuing to fail school ? will taehyun be able to focus on sports, classes, and trying to win yn over ?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
pink rose petals fell around you, a few landing on the top of your head. small giggles erupting behind you as you turned your head only to see taehyun, spotting the culprit of the petals that landed around and even on top of you. your giddy boyfriend was smiling from ear to ear, pulling you into his grasp. the sun was setting adding an ethereal effect on taehyun, his smile shining like the sunshine that laid upon the two of you.
“tyun !!” you cheerfully greeted, feeling engulfed in his warmth and comfort. pure joy rising in your eyes, wrapping your arms around his waist and putting, you pressed a kiss onto his cheek. the two of you pulled away from each other’s hold, staring lovingly into each others eye’s intoxicating one another with love. receiving a weakness in your knees from just how much adoration taehyun was gifting you with.
“follow me !” he grabbed your hand, gently dragging you over to a nearby park bench, pink azalea flowers laying on top of the wooden table. sweet alyssum’s lingering around on top of the table. a small paper resting in the bouquet of pink azalea’s with taehyun’s handwriting spelling ‘prom ?’ you picked up the piece of paper, smile unknowingly overtaking your face. “will you ? will you do me the honor and allow me to take you to prom ?” taehyun asked, holding onto your hands, inches apart from your face, face to face. eye contact being held as you somehow grew a smile even wider than the one that was previously on your face.
“of course !! oh my gosh taehyun!” your eyes full of love and pure happiness. it was as if your eyes were truly shining, taehyun wished this moment could last forever. he wished that he could always have his hands in yours, he wanted to spend his entire life making you happy. he wanted to continue sending these secret messages through floral communication. something about the way that it would make you so excited, he wanted to always see you smile with the biggest smile that you could ever have.
“taehyun.” yeonjun called out, pulling taehyun back into reality. taehyun blinked a few times, finding himself in his bed, all cozied up with a soft pillow underneath his cheek. he quickly sat up though, not remembering ending the night this way. in fact, he had stayed up until the crack of dawn, at least that’s was the last thing he remembered. his eyes felt like they had such a heavy weight on top of them, he had just won the season and yet it didn’t feel like a moment of celebration. although he had achieved such a huge milestone, he had lost the one thing that had even allowed himself to achieve his goal. not only had you ensured his spot in the team, but you kept him going in general. he wanted to win for you ! he didn’t even care as much about winning for himself anymore, he just wanted to make you proud that he was your boyfriend. was as in past tense, taehyun still couldn’t wrap his mind around that, he didn’t want to. he didn’t want to come to terms with the fact that the two of you were no longer together, he didn’t want to even think about the shit he told you, he didn’t want to think about how you were even doing, because he was afraid that it would just break him down again. he didn’t even deserve to think about you, not after everything he told you.
“you good ?” yeonjun once again attempted to get the words out of taehyun. yeonjun’s heart ached for the boy as he saw his tears well up, he had never seen taehyun in such a state. the two of them had been the closest of friends since middle school, which was why taehyun felt particularly hurt when yeonjun was upset with him after the entire nari situation. yeonjun pulled taehyun’s fragile figure into his arms.
“i miss yn so much,” taehyun mumbled, feeling the tears slowly drip down his cheek before being absorbed into yeonjun’s shirt. “d-didn’t wanna hurt them..”
“well then, let’s fix all of this before it’s too late..” yeonjun smiled softly at taehyun, pulling him away for a second so taehyun could see the comforting grin that yeonjun put on just for him, even if it was fake, it instilled some kind of comfort into taehyun as he simply just nodded his head. two other people barged into taehyun’s room, soobin and huening kai innocently entered the room. falling witness to taehyun’s small outburst, eyes already completely puffed up.
you weren’t in a much better state either. laying in your bed, staring at the ceiling, playing all different kinds of break up music as tears filled up your eyes. blurry view of the ceiling as you attempted to make out any kind of interesting thing of the flat and uninteresting ceiling. for some reason, you felt bed ridden, you felt as if your body was a heavy. you couldn’t get up from your bed no matter the amount of inspiring videos that you watched. you heard footsteps of your brother coming towards your room, immediately wiping off the tears and sitting up, grabbing your phone and pretending to be looking at something important.
however, once the door opened, it revealed sunghoon’s silhouette. he entered your room, seeing traces of ning ning’s presence before he arrived. you had spent 14 minutes alone before sunghoon’s arrival and within that time you managed to listen to all too well by taylor swift, as it brought out all the emotions you were feeling. in fact, you could just about put yourself in the song. the silly butterflies that taehyun gave you which only led you to feel such despair. you didn’t share the same exact experience as whatever taylor was going through when she was young, however, you were feeling the same range of emotions. from happiness and thinking that you were the most joyful person in the entire world to fire fueled anger and a tearful feeling. you were so sure that taehyun was going to be the person to love you the best way that you could ever imagine, but now.. well now you knew it was all just a dirty little lie, at least that’s what taehyun had told you. but why destroy you, he didn’t need to love you the way that he did, he could’ve easily just befriended you and leave. but he didn’t, he made you believe that he had passionate feelings for you even when he didn’t. was it your fault ? or was it actually just an entire lie ?
“ynie ?” sunghoon spoke, cutting the silence in half with his words. you blinked up at him sharing a tiny grin before realizing that your music was still on. ‘and you call me up again just to break me like a promise, so casually cruel in the name of being honest.’ you hadn’t realized that the song was on loop, ‘i’m a crumpled up piece of paper lying here.’ and well it was too late to stop it now, because now the tears were returning, you happy facade was so easily torn apart by the idea of taehyun. not even 24 hours ago, the two of you were so happily entangled in each other’s warmth. giving each other the most loving and gentle stares ever. sunghoon sat the end of your bed, spreading out his arms, inviting you into a warm embrace, which you gladly accepted, not being able to decline the slightest bit of affection. “cmon ! let’s do something productive, how about we clean your room, how does that sound ?”
you instinctively nodded your head. wiping your tears for the nth time this morning, your snot designated towel was of no use as it was completely used up. you got up from your bed with a bit of help from sunghoon as your stubborn body was refusing to get up, however, sunghoon somehow helped you get up. between the two of you, cleaning your room was such an easy task which was ironic because you really thought that you wouldn’t be able to. however the two of you settled back into your now made bed. throwing a small christmas designed blanket on top of the two of you. turning on the tv and putting on a random disney movie. the thought of taehyun couldn’t leave your mind, nor could it leave sunghoon’s as he felt a tendency to tell you everything that taehyun told him. he truly wanted to tell you everything because he trusted taehyun’s word, he only trusted him because he knew the kind of person that heeseung was. and he just couldn’t watch you fall victim to his so hurtful and cruel actions.
“yn.” sunghoon spoke up, getting the tissue box ready in case you were going to breakdown due to his talk about taehyun..
“yeah, hoon.”
“about taehyun… i think- i think it was all heeseung. remember that night, he said it was heeseung’s doing.. and i believe him, unlike ning ning and beomgyu. i believe him because i’ve seen how heeseung is.”
you simply just blinked at the boy, not responding..

“well then, let’s fix all of this before it’s too late..” yeonjun smiled softly at taehyun, pulling him away for a second so taehyun could see the comforting grin that yeonjun put on just for him, even if it was fake, it instilled some kind of comfort into taehyun as he simply just nodded his head. two other people barged into taehyun’s room, soobin and huening kai innocently entered the room. falling witness to taehyun’s small outburst, eyes already completely puffed up.
you weren’t in a much better state either. laying in your bed, staring at the ceiling, playing all different kinds of break up music as tears filled up your eyes. blurry view of the ceiling as you attempted to make out any kind of interesting thing of the flat and uninteresting ceiling. for some reason, you felt bed ridden, you felt as if your body was a heavy. you couldn’t get up from your bed no matter the amount of inspiring videos that you watched. you heard footsteps of your brother coming towards your room, immediately wiping off the tears and sitting up, grabbing your phone and pretending to be looking at something important.
however, once the door opened, it revealed sunghoon’s silhouette. he entered your room, seeing traces of ning ning’s presence before he arrived. you had spent 14 minutes alone before sunghoon’s arrival and within that time you managed to listen to all too well by taylor swift, as it brought out all the emotions you were feeling. in fact, you could just about put yourself in the song. the silly butterflies that taehyun gave you which only led you to feel such despair. you didn’t share the same exact experience as whatever taylor was going through when she was young, however, you were feeling the same range of emotions. from happiness and thinking that you were the most joyful person in the entire world to fire fueled anger and a tearful feeling. you were so sure that taehyun was going to be the person to love you the best way that you could ever imagine, but now.. well now you knew it was all just a dirty little lie, at least that’s what taehyun had told you. but why destroy you, he didn’t need to love you the way that he did, he could’ve easily just befriended you and leave. but he didn’t, he made you believe that he had passionate feelings for you even when he didn’t. was it your fault ? or was it actually just an entire lie ?
“ynie ?” sunghoon spoke, cutting the silence in half with his words. you blinked up at him sharing a tiny grin before realizing that your music was still on. ‘and you call me up again just to break me like a promise, so casually cruel in the name of being honest.’ you hadn’t realized that the song was on loop, ‘i’m a crumpled up piece of paper lying here.’ and well it was too late to stop it now, because now the tears were returning, you happy facade was so easily torn apart by the idea of taehyun. not even 24 hours ago, the two of you were so happily entangled in each other’s warmth. giving each other the most loving and gentle stares ever. sunghoon sat the end of your bed, spreading out his arms, inviting you into a warm embrace, which you gladly accepted, not being able to decline the slightest bit of affection. “cmon ! let’s do something productive, how about we clean your room, how does that sound ?”
you instinctively nodded your head. wiping your tears for the nth time this morning, your snot designated towel was of no use as it was completely used up. you got up from your bed with a bit of help from sunghoon as your stubborn body was refusing to get up, however, sunghoon somehow helped you get up. between the two of you, cleaning your room was such an easy task which was ironic because you really thought that you wouldn’t be able to. however the two of you settled back into your now made bed. throwing a small christmas designed blanket on top of the two of you. turning on the tv and putting on a random disney movie. the thought of taehyun couldn’t leave your mind, nor could it leave sunghoon’s as he felt a tendency to tell you everything that taehyun told him. he truly wanted to tell you everything because he trusted taehyun’s word, he only trusted him because he knew the kind of person that heeseung was. and he just couldn’t watch you fall victim to his so hurtful and cruel actions.
“yn.” sunghoon spoke up, getting the tissue box ready in case you were going to breakdown due to his talk about taehyun..
“yeah, hoon.”
“about taehyun… i think- i think it was all heeseung. remember that night, he said it was heeseung’s doing.. and i believe him, unlike ning ning and beomgyu. i believe him because i’ve seen how heeseung is.”
you simply just blinked at the boy, not responding..

this love - kang taehyun
letter 15 ; my heart won’t start anymore for you.
synopsis: what happens when soccer player!kang taehyun, who isn’t focused on school but is smart enough to pass, sees yn walk in the hallways nearly everyday after homecoming. taehyun’s new hallway crush begins to grow into something bigger, but what happens when he has to make a choice between yn or continuing to fail school ? will taehyun be able to focus on sports, classes, and trying to win yn over ?
one singular use of a cuss word (i think), 2k words 😧
Tumblr media
“yn !” you heard your name being called out by a rather familiar but not too recognizable voice, turning around to see heeseung waving his arm. you stopped walking as your friends continued to walk to your designated seats in the bleachers. sunghoon, however, turned to see who it was, knowing that he recognized heeseung’s voice. sunghoon couldn’t help but feel a deep worry inside of his gut. heeseung whispered, lips close to your ear. “don’t forget about what i warned you about.”
“hey, heeseung.” sunghoon harshly greeted the boy, wrapping a hand around your wrist and gently pulling you away from heeseung. a confused expression sat on your face, questions spewing in your mind.
“it’s been a long time, sunghoon.. hasn’t it ?” heeseung spoke, you felt sunghoon’s hands become sweatier around your wrist. sunghoon, for once had broken out of his calm state, entering a nervously fragile moment. it had been so long since he had seen heeseung and in reality, he wished he never ran into him.
“i really don’t care how long it’s been. i don’t care about whatever grudge you hold against taehyun, just leave yn out of it.” the nice and quiet sunghoon had finally spoken out. for once, showing his true feelings instead of agreeing with whatever heeseung was trying to do. you remembered nari’s words, her warning you about heeseung, and now sunghoon, his old friend, doing the same.
“don’t be so cold.” heeseung commented, before waving once more at you and walking away, taking a seat on the bleachers, front row.. yet some distance away from you. instead of explaining anything, sunghoon just led you to your friends. ning ning noticed sunghoon’s tenseness, cracking a few jokes which easily broke him away from the burden of heeseung in his thoughts. you watched as taehyun made his way out onto the field, immediately cheering along with your friends. while it seemed like a cheery moment, you couldn’t help but notice the frown that was applied on taehyun’s face. along with the way that he stared at you before immediately looking away, not doing his usual smile and kissy face at you, which he typically did before a game. you tried to not think much about it, maybe he just felt a tad bit more worried since it was his final game, maybe he wasn’t having a good day or something. you tried to make multiple excuses for the boy’s lack of affection and short attention towards you. apparently you weren’t the only one who noticed, beomgyu watched your reaction as he saw the way that taehyun nearly looked like he was fully ignoring your presence.
your smile wavered for only a second before returning, wanting to show full support for your boyfriend in case anything was wrong. meanwhile, taehyun felt so bad. he wanted to give you all of his affection, he wanted to spoil you with loving glares and gazes. yet here he was, unfortunately, being forced by heeseung to stop being with you. you watched as the opposing team came out, they did their typical stretches that would help them perform better with a lower chance of getting an injury. the opposing team had been rivals with taehyun’s team for the longest. nearly every year the two teams had made it to the finals and yet every year, taehyun’s team had managed to lose, always coming to a close cut before the timer would go off and they had no choice but to accept the loss.
the game was nothing but eventful. dirty tricks like side tackles and such being used by both teams. the other team trying to show that they were truly better than taehyun’s team. whereas taehyun’s team was just desperately trying to win their final game of their high school career. penalties being taken and techniques being put into use. you felt a bit off while watching the game, cheering for taehyun any time that he looked like he was about to score a goal. however, even taehyun was playing a bit off, failing in things that he usually played perfectly. as halftime arrived, you let taehyun have sometime to talk to his team, knowing that they had a lot to discuss. he needed to take a break, chest heaving and the scoreboard reading 1-2, home team having the least amount of goals. taehyun’s performance was all over the place, his mind in a different spot than his body.
when the break was up, taehyun was more tired than usual. but, if he was going to lose you today, he needed to at least win something. that way it wouldn’t hurt as much when he was going to let you go. maybe heeseung was right, taehyun was fighting to win, but he so easily gave you up. it nearly felt like you didn’t mean so much to him, but you did. he was beginning to get clammy and it wasn’t the sweat from running around the field, but rather it was from the nerves that came with letting you go. he didn’t want to confront you and tell you that he didn’t want to see you again. maybe if he was meaner when breaking up with you then it would be easier for you to let him go. if he told you the truth then neither of you would be able to let one another go. so instead of confronting heeseung and telling him that he wasn’t going to do any of it, he began to take out his anger on the poor soccer ball. kicking it halfway through the field, passing it to yeonjun who was able to score it in thanks to taehyun’s ability to pass it while distracting the other team.
when the game ended, your side of the bleachers only erupted with cheers as the other side began to boo taehyun’s team.
and all of a sudden, you were in front of taehyun, shaky breaths leaving your mouth. how did you even get here ? how did you get from being taehyun’s most adored lover to hearing the words..
“i’m breaking up with you..” taehyun released the words from his mouth, cheers still errupting from behind him, a pang hitting him in the chest as he watched your eyes begin to water, hands beginning to tremble. he just wanted to wrap you around his arms and tell you that it was a mistake to say those cruel words to you. however, he had to hold himself back, he had to.. he had to do all of this for you. taehyun wasn’t sure what heeseung meant by telling him that he was helping you in the end.
“why.” his heart ached with your response, voice quivering, lips slightly trembling. everyone around you cheering, it was as if you were the only one who was being forced to live through a slow period of time. why did this have to happen ? we’re the two of you not equally happy in the relationship ? the last thing that you could remember was all of the heartwarming moments and memories that taehyun had created for the two of you to admire when you would look back on your eventful life.
“yn… it’s the end of the season.. do you really not know why i was dating you this entire time.”
“taehyun.. you’re joking.”
“i’m not.” yes he was, he had to be joking. within the next few seconds you would be back in his arms, playfully hitting his arm for pulling such a cruel joke on you. yet that never happened. it was never going to happen. taehyun stood there, trying to put on the most serious face he could and mask his sadness and guilt. if you looked closely enough, you could see his hand trembling. he was trying to hide his tears. even if he wanted to kiss all your worries away, he couldn’t. not with the way that heeseung was planning to get back at him.
“then why go that far to trick me ? flower field dates ? always bringing me my favorite flowers ? why ?”
“you’re smart yn, im sure you can figure that out.”
“then why give me the most important spot on your senior night..” you looked at him, teary eyes looking straight up towards his. the guilt in taehyun’s eyes was covered by your lack of judgement, not being able to tell that taehyun was pleading you to not give up on him. your brain only focusing on the words that were spilt through his gritted teeth.
because you were the most important person to him in this wicked world, that’s what taehyun wanted to tell you. he wanted to confess the deep feelings that he had for you. he wished to confess the way that you made him have butterflies in his tummy, the way you made him feel like he had something to look forward to. taehyun was previously just a person with nearly no ambition. nothing separated him from his peers, he was just showing up to school everyday so that his parents wouldn’t be upset with him. but once he started seeing you. he would wake up everyday in the early morning, sun shining straight into his eyes. rubbing his eyes and looking at the date, typically if it was a tuesday or thursday, taehyun would get up with a ton of time to prepare himself to see you. he would wake up motivated by the idea of getting another tutoring session with you.
“well you helped me, shouldn’t i at least give you something in return ?” taehyun came up with the worst lie ever, he knew that you coming as his partner for senior night was all for him. you didn’t gain anything from coming, only the idea of spending time with him and being the first one to congratulate him. but instead; here you were, harming words being exchanged towards you.
“you’re so fucking cruel, kang taehyun.” you wiped away one of the tears that had fallen down to your cheek. you didn’t want to show too much vulnerability in front of him, and the last thing that taehyun wanted to see was you crying because of what he’s done. “but i guess heeseung was right this entire time.. you really don’t care about anyone but yourself.”
“heeseung..?” taehyun questioned. but it wasn’t long before you just turned your back on him, you hadn’t noticed the amount of heads turned towards you and taehyun. all attention on the two of you, taehyun’s mind immediately began to remind of his situation with nari. he could promise himself that he heard nari mention heeseung’s name that day. he set everything up that day, weakened nari’s heart and beliefs in taehyun. taehyun remembered the threat that heeseung made to him right before his game, either way your name was going to be dragged left and right. heeseung’s threat meant nothing if it was always going to be your name that was going to be hurt. “wait, yn !”
all he could see was as your figure arrived at the location of your friends, as they started sending him death glares. he wasn’t worried about that, currently, he was worried about whatever heeseung might’ve told you. he followed behind you, attempting to get your attention only to be blocked by beomgyu.
“you’re so lucky that yn’s here… or i seriously would’ve put these matters into my own hands.”
“sunghoon…” taehyun called out, ignoring whatever nonsense beomgyu was spewing towards him. “it’s heeseung, it’s always been heeseung.”

this love - kang taehyun
letter 14 ; you are not the exception; you will never learn your lesson
synopsis: what happens when soccer player!kang taehyun, who isn’t focused on school but is smart enough to pass, sees yn walk in the hallways nearly everyday after homecoming. taehyun’s new hallway crush begins to grow into something bigger, but what happens when he has to make a choice between yn or continuing to fail school ? will taehyun be able to focus on sports, classes, and trying to win yn over ?
Tumblr media
“are you threatening me ?” taehyun was flabbergasted, not believing his ears nor was he able to believe the boy in front of him. surprise written all over his face as he continued to prep himself up for the upcoming game.
“that’s some kind of way to put it.” heeseung responded, fidgeting around with the different kinds of gear that was in the locker room, only reminding him of the days that he played soccer with the team. until he lost all of that due to taehyun. he lost nari, he lost his passion. the only thought in his head was getting back at taehyun for all the stuff he made him go through. “so choose; you and yn while yn suffers through slight comments made towards them about rather ridiculous things or break up with yn and the two of you continue to stay happy.. just apart.” heeseung offered, a small smirk sitting on his face. checking his watch every few minutes, ensuring that taehyun felt pressured to make his decision as he was only giving the boy the decision to make on the spot.
“you’re so.. why ? why does this all effect you ? why are you going out of your way just to hurt me ?” taehyun turned, resisting any kind of desire to put his arms physically on heeseung and scaring him away. the only reason he didn’t want to do so was so that he would still be able to go out on the field and play. if someone were to see taehyun pin heeseung against the lockers than it would definitely make its way to his coach and he couldn’t risk that.
“because taehyun.. i’m doing this for yn, even though i’m asking you to break up with them.. y’know you’re gonna end up hurting them in the end.. you’ve got your priorities placed elsewhere taehyun, let’s be honest with each other. i’m over the entire nari situation.” heeseung let the lies spill out of his mouth. “if anything, i’m just looking out for you and yn. in reality, you should be thanking me.”
“just give me until tomorrow..” taehyun sighed, tears unknowingly beginning to well up. tensing up at the situation that was unfolding right in front of him. but he had a game to play and he refused to let heeseung tear him apart bit by bit.
“you have until after the game.” heeseung stood up from the bench that was placed right in the center of the locker room. “it was great catching up with you, kang taehyun.” heeseung stated right before exiting the locker room, taking one last look at the broken-down taehyun as he left. yeonjun hesitantly entered as he saw heeseung, who’s face was decorated with a rather cruel smirk, exit.
“tyun ?” yeonjun questioned, noticing the boy who faced the door, tense shoulders, chest rising and falling unreasonably fast.
“you’re right.. i never loved yn.. i was always just doing it all for myself.” he spoke, an angry tone coloring his words.
“what ? why wouldn’t you like yn ?” yeonjun questioned, taking a seat on the bench that heeseung was previously sitting on. “taehyun, be serious.. you got upset at us and tried to prove that you and yn could be happy together, you set up an entire flower field date for the two of you.. you even gifted yn an entire bouquet for your very first day of tutoring..”
“how do you know about that ?” taehyun questioned, raising an eyebrow at his friend who sat still, a nervous smile on his face. “the last part.. i didn’t tell anyone about that..”
“well.. you see.. i have some connections.. me and sunghoon are pretty close friends, and y’know… sunghoon and yn are quite close too..”
“sunghoon ?” taehyun asked, he had ate lunch with you multiple times, but he never really analyzed his surroundings. not only that, but he only ever saw you with beomgyu, the two of you were practically attached by the hip. “sunghoon as in heeseung’s friend, sunghoon ?”
“yes.. him and heeseung ended up having so many arguments, just like nari.. sunghoon ended up disagreeing with heeseung.. he ended up becoming friends with yn and beomgyu…” yeonjun spoke as taehyun put his head against the locker. “but seriously.. what made you give up on yn ?”
“it’s surprising that you’re not talking about how you were right.. maybe yn was just a silly little fling that i took too far..” taehyun replied, taking a seat next to yeonjun and fixing up his long socks. taking in deep breaths every few seconds, due to the heavy weight that sat on his shoulders. he truly didn’t want to break up with you, you were the greatest thing he’d ever experience. he’d never do such sweet gestures for anyone, not even nari. he truly felt so full of happiness when he was with you. and now that was all going to be taken away, due to his own decisions and past actions. he never thought that his past with nari and heeseung would end up coming back to bite him.
