you’re a whole constellation; l.jh (teaser)
lee jihoon x afab!reader, will be smut, part of the Don’t Listen in Secret series! can be read alone or w/ the other members’ (as of 11/22, cheol & han) 
Tumblr media
synopsis woozi’s new studio looks a bit too perfect for his liking. he has no idea what to write for his next song, but he has a thought on how to make his new space a bit more homely.
➤ happy bday. ⭐️🍰 wrote this on a whim. title from “nasty” by ariana grande bc jihoon has recommended it before. refer to pics of the universe factory if u don’t know what it looks like. he publically showed his new studio november 2021 for reference. not proofread i’ll do it later! universe factory is unbelievably gorgeous so i needed to do this. expect finished fic sometime around friday to next friday LOL mb </3
-
“holy shit, ji,” you said as a heel clicked against the hard floor upon entering the room. a chuckle was more exhaled than laughed beside you, and if you weren’t busy admiring the setting, you’d see a suddenly shy woozi scratching his neck.
“i like it so much,” he admitted, trailing behind your wandering figure. “i’m so excited to work in here.”
universe factory couldn’t have been executed more perfectly than this. the purple-pink LED lights through the area with a small corner designated to a warm yellow glow, the surprising prism with drawings plastered on each side, and the ceiling.
you felt like a little kid peering through a telescope, wide eyed at the invisible celestials. the nebula and twinkling stars scattered on top were more reminiscent to an old trend of galaxy-print than a NASA sighting. but, as you turned to jihoon for the first time since entering his new studio, you found the stars in his prideful eyes. in that moment, he was sparkling.
“it looks like how to you sounds. i love that. i’m really,” you grinned harder as your vision was suddenly becoming blurry. “wow,” you turned your attention to something down, something to conceal the drama of your happiness. “i’m really proud of you.”
he was fixing the positions of some figurines on shelves ever-so-slightly, if you thought about it more it seemed like he was distracting himself the same way you were. he was never one to get emotional. “thank you. i am too… i just need to fill it with music now.”
your interest piqued at that. it was always so exciting to see how in the zone woozi was while creating music, but also, how his mind worked. his abilities never failed to astonish you— it was so hot how he just hummed a random melody and it would then be the chorus of a number one title track. he was nothing less than a genius.
“y/n?”
since when was he standing in front of you?
you blinked once, then twice. “yeah?”
you watched his eyes squint and the corners of his lips tug upwards, but you didn’t comment. did he have a thermostat? he should get one. the room is hot, the air feels thick. maybe you can buy him one of those hand-held fans. maybe you can fan him while he composes.
“i asked if you wanted to help. like, now, just casually.”
definitely casually, you thought, but the furrow of your eyebrows was made evident to jihoon. “i mean,” he continued, an eyebrow of his own raised, “maybe you’ll have some kind of fresh idea. new studio, new sound?”
“oh.” did he want you to sing? to play an instrument? this was woozi, what could you do that he couldn’t? “i’m not sure how i could possibly help you make a song, but sure,” you smiled. you’ll figure it out, probably, and why wouldn’t you want to spend some time with jihoon?
“trust me, you can help me in more ways than you can imagine. we’ll make a song like the kpop industry has never seen before.”
that had you holding back a scoff— what hadn’t the kpop industry seen? woozi likes it when people are honest around him. you decided to share your confusion out loud.
it only earned a wider grin from the boy who was making his way towards his long sofa. you followed in suit, taking note of the mirror right in front, taking up the full length of the wall, and his piano to the right of the mirror. the brief wonder of why such a large mirror was in his studio was held back from being verbally expressed when your earlier question received comment from the boy who had sat on the soft ivory.
for someone of jihoon’s stature, his hands were truly suprisingly large. his veins exposed themselves as nimble fingers spun a pencil in one hand, the other setting aside a notepad. he still held his smile, exhaling a bit dramatically as he patted the space on the cushions beside him, inviting you. “a while ago, the kpop industry hadn’t seen a 13 member group, a 23-year-old among the top KOMCA members... i’m sure we could figure something out.”

𝐟𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐬𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐥𝐚𝐩 𝐫𝐞𝐪
pairings: xiao, childe, and diluc x gn!reader (separate) 
scenario: you’re very tired today, and your boyfriend makes such a nice pillow
request: Hi! I just found your blog and your writing is just incredible! Could I request falling asleep on their lap for Xiao, Childe, and Diluc?
genre: im running out of ways to say fluff but fluff 100% 
Tumblr media
xiao 
you two would probably be sitting on the roof of the wangshu inn
or maybe the roof of that one tower thats a bit ways away from liyue 
just a roof in general
and maybe he notices you’re a bit tired so he decides he’s going to tell you some stories
just to help you relax
so he tells you about the adventures he’s been on, while trying to keep it lighthearted for your sake
and the sound of his voice is so relaxing 
so you lean against him a bit and then
you have successfully fallen asleep in none other but the guardian yaksha’s arms
after a while of you not responding, xiao looks down to see you softly snoring
the first thought that goes through his mind
protect y/n
i mean yes theres nothing posing a threat to you at this exact moment
but that could always change, no? 
so he pulls you a bit closer to him, and holds you just a bit tighter
the fact that you trust him enough to let your guard down in front of him means so much 
as someone who doesn’t trust his own self a lot, seeing that you are willing to become vulnerable in front of him can help with his self esteem
he lets you sleep until the sun goes down
then he hoists you up into his arms so that he can carry you back to the inn
it wouldnt be smart to stay out after dark after all
if you wake up on the way back, he’d apologize for disturbing you, and take you to your room so you can rest in a bed
he doesn’t think he’s that good of a pillow, but if you want to cuddle then he’ll oblige 
as you sleep, he might just watch over you and make sure you’re safe
which if you woke up to see, you would urge him to get some rest
if he’s tired enough, he will lay down next to you 
maybe even reach his arms out over you 
overall, he’d be very soft and want to make sure your sleep goes on undisturbed 
might even try to fight pigeons who land on the same roof as you guys 
and if you want to thank him, you can make him some almond tofu when you wake up :) 
Tumblr media
childe 
childe would at first not notice that you’ve fallen asleep
maybe you two would be on a bench or a date around liyue
and it’s been a long day, so while stopping to rest he notices your tired state
teasingly asking you “do you need to take a break~” 
but he really just wants you to be comfortable so he leads you both to a nearby seat 
maybe watching the sun set over the harbor with you on his lap 
and wow you’re so good to him and wow he doesn’t deserve you
meanwhile all you’re thinking is
childe warm i sleep 
probably would ask you a couple stupid questions like
why do slimes do the jiggle wobble thing
and you’d be like “mhm, yes sweetheart.” 
he knows you’re tired tho so its ok 
you wouldn’t be able to keep your eyes open anymore so you’d just slowly drift off 
he’d be lost in his own thoughts that he isn’t aware you aren’t answering him anymore
after a while he’d look down to realize
oh they’re asleep 
most likely he’d immediately take you back to your house, or his house if yours is too far
he’d put you on the couch and gently wake you up so you can put on comfier clothes 
maybe some pajamas or if you’re at his house he’d let you wear his 
“y/n, wake up~” 
you might be a bit sleepy but he knows that overall it’d be more comfortable for you this way 
after you’ve changed he’ll bring you over to your bed
and tuck you in, yk laying the blanket over you, making sure your pillow is perfectly fluffed and all that
only the best for his y/n ! 
if you’re a light sleeper, he’d stay on guard over you so that nothing can wake you up
if you sleepwalk, he’d be right there to bring you back to the bed 
he wants you to feel as comfortable and protected and safe as possible
maybe if he was feeling a bit tired he’d lay down with you
but he wouldn’t completely fall asleep, as that would put both him and you in possible danger 
letting his guard down isn’t something he can afford to do around you
as in yes he would treat you very well but also he wants to keep you safe
Tumblr media
diluc 
you’d be out on a walk around mondstatd or windrise
most likely windrise because diluc wants every chance to not see kaeya
he knows you enjoy the landscape of the area near venessa’s tree
maybe a little picnic underneath it
with all the mondstatd specialties courtesy of good hunter
you also glared at donna as you two walked past her house 
and when diluc asks you why you hate her 
smile and wave boys smile and wave 
but like most people, you get a bit sleepy after you eat
diluc notices and offers to hug you for a bit, because the grass might be soft, but it’s certainly not warm
so you do, and sitting in his lap, you feel warmth and happiness 
which causes you to yawn and begin to fall asleep 
diluc had been reading a book while you sat, and when your head nods to the side, he closes it 
you...you fell asleep 
yeah he knew you were tired but 
wait what time is it
basically he was in a trance the entire time just thinking about you and how you smell good and your hair is so soft and
the sun is setting
while normally that would be something gorgeous to watch
you two are kind of far from the winery, which means it’d be dark by the time you get home
so he decides he’ll just stay the night at the angel’s share
yes he might run into kaeya but if it means you don’t have to wake up 
then so be it 
thank god the angel’s share has an extra bedroom that was installed in case someone needed to stay there
he covers you with a soft blanket and sits on the chair by the side, watching the door
if you ask for cuddles or reach out to him he’ll get up and lay down with you
but it’d be really awkward for a bit because you’re all bundled up and here he is in his long black coat skhakfsdlhf
you might also just want to lay against him for that extra warmth
which he will eagerly provide don’t you worry  
who knows he might even fall asleep???
of course the next morning kaeya would bust in to wake you two up 
because he’s like that
and diluc would glare daggers at him because how dare he wake up my beloved y/n i will make him rue the day he stepped foot into my father’s house 
after kicking kaeya out he turns back to you and like asks how you slept
and maybe you two cuddle just a bit longer because he suddenly is in need of hugs 
Tumblr media
a/n: i really enjoyed writing this one, especially diluc’s with the donna slander dskhfsdjkh and i havent got xiao yet :( but i’ve seen some people have like c3 xiao?? bruh what. but i hope you guys like these hcs and thank u anon for the request <3

Helloooo, first of all I have to tell you that I have huge respect for people that write such amazing stories, I always imagine stuff, but I can’t write it down. And to see stories like yours makes my heart beat ❤️
So I wanted to ask 🥺 if you could write a story where Haechan has a huge crush on his Noona (like 5 years older) and she knows and kind of likes him too (because who doesn’t?!) and starts to tease him. And although he is always so confident this gets him off track. So at a Party he tries to tease her and always whines in front of others to finally kiss him or something like that. That makes her want to make him flustered even more so she pulls him into a secluded corner and asks him what he was actually doing and wispers stuff against his ear and skin (seduce him so he is longing for that kiss more than ever and he can’t think straight) and then they finally kiss and have a really hot make out session. Just a little thought I had, nothing that doesn’t let me sleep at night 🙃 thank you sooooo much 😘
Firstly, tysm omg that's so sweet 🥺 (*in Mark's voice* wow this is SWEET) also sowwy for not responding sooner I only really come on at night in my time zone  🥺👉🏻👈🏻 Probably isn't exactly what you had in mind, but since I know literally nothing about men (rip) teasing in a non-sexual way isn't something I would 100% get how u wanted it.
Request: Loading.......///////// 75%
As you strolled into the kitchen, something - or someone - caught your eye. "Yah! Jisung, I told u to warn me when your friends were coming over" you scolded your brother. You always needed warning when Haechan was coming over. He was beautiful, his pretty brown hair with his bangs that perfectly frame his pretty face. You liked him a little, but most people did to be honest, however, you knew how to play it cool, and no even thought about you liking him. Haechan on the other hand, was the complete opposite. He liked you, and he made it very obvious. You could tell he likes you from the way he stared, and he would get easily flustered when you caught him. His confidence was still a force to be reckoned with, so even when he was flustered, it didn't last for long.
"Hey noona" Haechan sounded nonchalant, probably because I hadn't teased him yet. Before you could reply to Haechan, your brother interrupted. "I thought u didn't mind my older friends coming over" Jisung was 18, but he insisted on living with you since he doesn't want to pay for an apartment yet, and he doesn't fancy going to college either. Haechan was 20, and you were 25. "I don't mind it Ji, I just like warning so I can make sure the place doesn't look like vermin live here." You turn to Haechan "especially when you bring the cute ones" Haechan smirked, pretending your comment had no effect on him. "So noona thinks I'm cute" "I wouldn't say you're completely unfortunate in the looks department" you smirk back, and once again Jisung interrupted you. "Y/n, stop flirting with my friends" "I'm not flirting Ji, I'm bonding because I think I see this one too much" Jisung rolled his eyes as you play with Haechans hair, whispering things in his ear, teasing him slightly. You accidentally brush your left hand against his, sending goosebumps down his spine. Jisung speaks up again. "And vermin does live here, it's you" You sent a glare Jisungs way "you look like a rat that just came out the sewers" Haechan giggles a little, which you find very cute.
When Haechan finally goes home, Jisung comes into the kitchen and ruffles your hair. "Can you not, I don't wanna get hair in our cupcakes, and stop being taller than me" He ignores you. "Come to this party at Chenle's house tomorrow please, Haechan likes you, and you don't make it obvious, but I can tell you like him"
"Of course the rich one is having a party." You say sarcastically , "also I do not like Haechan"
"Do too, I've seen u around everyone you've ever liked, and you act the same with him. You tease him all the time, you always find a reason to scurry off to 'leave him wanting more' and I know for a fact you're gonna go full Cher mode on him at a party, and I wanna know how it plays out"
"Fine I'll go, and please never call my techniques full Cher mode again"
~time skip: party~
You decide to wear a short white pleated skirt, and a pink lace crop top. Cute but revealing *smirk emoji*. You show up 10 minutes after Jisung, knowing Haechans already there. You walk around, attempting to locate Chenle. When you finally find him, you talk to him. You liked Chenle, he was absolutely adorable (you didn't have a crush on him or anything, you just found him cute) and he was hilarious, and his laugh added to it. You both stood there laughing for a while, and that's when Haechan came over. "Y/n you came" your mouth almost dropped at how gorgeous he looked, eyes shining under the multi coloured disco lights. "Y-you didn't call me noona" you weren't planning on stuttering, but today, something about him was different, too appealing for you to stay focused if you were honest. He smirked a little, doing some sort of hand shake with Chenle while saying "you shocked cutie?"
Jisung #number 1 moment ruiner calls to announce a drinking game. You mentally slapped yourself, you knew he did it on purpose, he knew the more drunk you were, the more you drank, the easier it was to make you spill your darkest secrets.
You weren't gonna let that happen though. Haechan put his arm over you, making your stomach flip, but you push the feeling aside. As the game goes on, more and more embarrassing questions get thrown around. "Y/n, who do you think about while you touch yourself" you mentally laugh, wrong question to ask. "Yeah I don't do that" all the boys to turn to Jisung for confirmation. "Well if she does she deserves an award for suppressing any moans, and I raid her room daily and she doesn't have any toys so-" he does what daily "Ji why dyu raid my room" Haechan whines. You giggle "What's wrong sweetie" you move slightly, knowing you just rubbed your ass against his crotch, getting him back for his stupid question. "Just admit that you like me"
You pull Haechan over to a corner, and look up at him cutely, flying with the gem of his shirt "I know you want this off baby, but we're kinda surrounded by people" you whisper into his ear "now why were you acting up so much" Haechan doesn't answer, he's got all shy and flustered. Cute. "Haechannie, why were you doing it, do you like me" you grab his chin and lift his head up slightly. He just nods. "Well what would you like to do about it" He shuffles his feet. "Babyboy you have to tell me, or I won't know" " I want to k-kiss you" that's what you wanted to hear.
You pull him in for a kiss, which starts off passionate, but ends up rough and full of lust. Both of you wanting more, but you can't, not right now. His hands slowly travel under your skirt, making you gasp. Haechan takes that as his queue to stick his tongue in your mouth. Your tongues dance and fight for dominance, while you run your fingers through his hair. You both run out of breath, and you pull away to gain air. He throws his head back so he's looking at the ceiling as he groans in frustration and relief. You use that opportunity to attach your lips to his jawline, marking him up. He lets out a quiet groan, this time from pleasure, and he can feel you smirk against his skin. That's when you get interrupted, once again, by Jisung. You take that as your queue to leave, "until next time babyboy"
Request: complete!
I hope it was what you wanted it to be 👉🏻👈🏻
Before you request: Read this

Han Baby: the new girl with a troubled past MO Academy: her new high school Choi Soobin: student council president, member of the Ecosave club, volunteer at the Humane Treatment of Animals, member of the Honor Society, a vocalist in the Jazzed club, the school’s all around golden boy Choi Yeonjun: leader of the Dance club, star of the Jazzed club, the school’s it boy with a bad rep 5 best friends, 1 new girl, 1 childhood friendship, 1 epic love triangle? What will this school year bring?
Tumblr media
Yeonjun’s night wasn’t going so well.
All he wanted was to take his girlfriend to one of the biggest school dances of the year, to pick her up from apartment and have his breath taken away but how undoubtedly gorgeous she’d look, to hold her hand in the backseat of his car and maybe toast with a glass of white wine as his driver takes them to the dance, to take silly and sweet photographs as they enter the venue, to watch every guy’s drop as he walks in with her drop-dead gorgeous self into the hall, to hold her close and whisper sweet nothings in her ear while they slow dance under the twinkling lights and fall petals floating down, and to make it a night they’ll never forget as they make their way back to her place after the dance for their own private “afterparty.”
Yet, he found himself in a throng of kids around his age who he knew would be able to live as lavishly and extravagantly as they wanted to without having to work a single day in their lives, striving to make dull conversations about who threw the latest reckless parties and who hooked up with who and who did this that and so on and so forth. For a “business” party, and it was less on networking and more on gossiping and hooking up for these kids. When his father sprung his mandatory attendance at this event, Yeonjun had initially thought of asking B to come with him so that they’d at least be able to spend the evening together, whether it be at the Fall Ball or not, and he knew that her presence would make it so much more bearable. But as soon as he heard who was hosting the event, he knew inviting B would be a bad idea. Because the event was being hosted by none other than Kim Jisoo, successor to the biggest Technology Firm in the country.
And Yeonjun was quick to learn that wherever Kim Jisoo went, Park Rose was sure to follow.
And right on cue, he spots her.
Her long red hair fell down her shoulders like a velvet curtain, her figure flaunted by the blue slip dress that hung off her body elegantly. She spots him at the same time and gives him a wave. Again, he feels as if he were transported 2 years back to the past, feeling tongue-tied and breathless in her presence. He shakes it off before waving back to her, and she makes his way towards him.
“Hey babe, I wasn’t expecting to see you again so soon.” Rose says, instinctively leaning in to kiss his cheek.
“It’s a party hosted by Kim Jisoo, so my father forced me to come tonight. And I’m not your babe.” he says, though he makes no move to avoid her kiss on his cheek.
“Sorry, I guess it feels a bit weird seeing you again after we’ve broken up. It’s a habit, I guess.” she says, giggling. “Did you come here alone tonight? No friends? Where’s your girlfriend?”
“Yeah, my friends and girlfriend are actually at MO Academy for the Fall Ball. I’m actually gonna ditch this party as soon as I can then head on over to the school dance, but don’t tell Jisoo cause she might not let me go so easily.” he says, taking a sip out of the champagne in his glass.
“Ah, the Fall Ball. I remember how beautiful the last one was. Remember, they covered the whole dance floor with autumn leaves? Then I sprained my ankle when that song by Twice came on and I couldn’t help but dance along.” Rose laughs, fondly remembering the evening. “A swollen ankle wasn’t enough to spoil our little afterparty at The Eastwood though.” she says, referring to the hotel they had booked that night and the hours they spent tangled in the sheets.
“Yeah, I’m sure it’ll be even better this year since the guys and I are the student council leaders now.” Yeonjun says, brushing off her comments about the past.
Rose pouts. “Come on, lighten up Junnie! No need to pretend that you and I are strangers. We’re friends, right?”
Yeonjun raises a brow. “Yeah, sure, friends.” It was something he never thought of Rose as, but given their situation, it felt like an appropriate label. “As a friend, do you want to go around and do that thing we used to do at lame parties like these?” he says, another memory of them popping up.
Rose giggles, remembering how they used to go around the party, pick a couple or group to watch, and make up dialogue for them. It was a fun and entertaining way to get it through a night like this, surrounded by shallow and stuck up trust fund kids. “Ah, now that’s what a friend at a party like this is for.” she says, her eyes quickly scanning the room before landing on a group of people. “Okay, look over there, let’s call the man Mr. Bass, and let’s say he’s got his arm wrapped around his girlfriend yet he’s so obviously flirting with their companion Mr. Archibald…”
The rest of Yeonjun’s time at the party was spent that way, with him and Rose going around the room, people-watching, dialogue-making, story-telling, sipping on Chardonnay and laughing together just like the good old days. The best dialogue they made up was one between Rose’s own friend group, Jisoo, Jennie and Lisa, wherein the pair of them made up a story about how Jisoo and Lisa were trying to outshine each other for Jennie’s affection.
“Wow, Rose, I have to admit that when I stepped foot into this place, I never would have thought I’d actually have fun tonight.” Yeonjun says after they sneak away in a fit of giggles. “Our dialogues tonight weren’t the best, but I’ve gotta say, the one with Lisa, Jennie and Jisoo was genius. Is there any truth to it, or is it purely fiction?”
“Well I made up the scenario, but honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if a bit of it ended up being true.” Rose says, nursing the wine glass in her hand. “I have to say, I thought tonight would be just another night of me glued to the same 3 girls I’ve been stuck with the past year, so thank you. I had fun with you tonight.”
Yeonjun smiles at her. “Speaking of Jisoo, do you think it would be safe for me to leave now? The dance will be ending in about an hour, and I’d really like to catch at least a bit of it before the night ends.”
“Oh, you can’t just slip out cause that might get you on her bad side. You have to come and say goodbye to her, but don’t worry, I’ve got a fullproof plan to ensure that she’ll let you go.” Rose says, giving him a smile before taking a sip of wine.
“Follow my lead.” Rose whispers to Yeonjun, linking their arms together before approaching Jisoo, Jennie and Lisa.
“Hey girls, where have you been all night? I feel like I haven’t seen you around.” Rose says, greeting the 3.
“We could say the same about you. I was starting to worry about you, I feel like I haven’t seen you all night!” Jisoo exclaims, before her eyes settle on the man Rose had on her arm. “But I guess I had no reason to worry after all, looks like you found yourself some company.” she says, smiling knowingly at the pair. “Hello Yeonjun, I’m glad to see you were able to make it to my party tonight.”
“It’s my pleasure, Jisoo.” Yeonjun says politely. “I really had fun.”
“Yes, tonight was fun, but I hope you don’t mind if I leave and take Junnie here with me?” Rose says, giving a pout. “I think I’ve had a little too much to drink and I’m not feeling well. Yeonjun has offered to drive me home.”
Yeonjun subtly raises a brow at her, but she throws him a quick wink.
“Oh no, are you okay? You look like you should lie down.” Lisa says, her brows furrowed with concern.
“Don’t worry about her, ladies. I’d be glad to give her a ride home and make sure she’s okay.” Yeonjun says, quickly catching on to Rose’s plan.
“Oh, Yeonjun dear, thank you so much!” Jisoo squeals, quickly leaning forward and giving him a peck on the cheek. “You’re such a darling. Thank you for looking out for our dear Rose.”
“No problem at all.” Yeonjun says. “We’ll be on our way now, I think Rose really needs to lie down.” he says to Rose, who dramatically puts a hand over her forehead.
“Yes, I think I really do. Thanks again, Yeonjun. Girls, I’ll see you all soon. And Jisoo, I’m sorry I have to leave early, I promise I’ll make it up to you.” she says, batting her eyelashes at the girls.
Jisoo waves a hand in the air. “Nonsense, your presence here tonight was more than enough. You too, Yeonjun! Thank you for coming tonight.”
The pair waves at the 3 girls one more time before they walk away, snickering and giggling.
“Wow, that was genius. Thanks, Rose.” Yeonjun says. “I guess I’m free to go now. Do you, uh, do you really feel sick? Do you want me to give you a ride home?”
Rose laughs. “Am I that good of an actress? No, I feel perfectly fine, that was just an excuse so Jisoo would let us go. But I wouldn’t mind a ride home, thanks.” she says, smiling at him sweetly. “I mean, you owe me now so it’s only fair that I get a free ride home.”
Yeonjun shakes his head, smiling as he pulls out his phone and texts his driver to pick him up at the front entrance. “Alright, let’s go then.”
Yeonjun had to admit that his evening wasn’t as bad as he thought it would be. He was worried that he wouldn’t be able to escape from the party, but here he was in his car with his driver driving away from it. He was dreading having to see his ex again, but he was pleasantly surprised by how her company had made the night tolerable, or fun even. The ride to her house wasn’t a very long one seeing as she lived in the same neighborhood as Jisoo did, but the whole time was spent with the 2 of them laughing and reminiscing, just like the good old days.
“Ah, here we are.” Rose says as the car stops in front of her house. “Junnie, I just wanted to say thank you for tonight.”
Yeonjun smiles at her as his driver gets out of the car and opens the door open for her. “No problem, Rose. I had fun too, thanks to you.”
Rose gives him a smile back, and before he knew it, she was leaning in and he was closing his eyes as her lips met his, melding together like 2 pieces of a puzzle. She tries to deepen the kiss by tangling her hands in his hair, but he pulls away, drawn back to the present-day reality.
“Rose, sorry, I can’t do this. I’m in love with someone else.” he says, his lips stinging as the guilt starts to hit him. “And I’m leaving to go meet up with her right now. Look, I had fun tonight, but like you said, we’re friends. Nothing more.”
Rose sighs, retracting her hands from his shoulders. She sits up, straightening out her dress before she says “Friends. Right, thanks again for tonight Junnie.”
As she stands up and exits the car, she takes one look back at him. “Whoever you love now, I hope they know how lucky they are. But I also hope you know that I don’t think you and I will ever be just friends, and tonight was proof of that. I’ll always love you, Junnie.” she says, giving him a small wave before she walks away, slamming the car door shut behind her.
Yeonjun watches her walk up to the front door, wanting to make sure that she’d make it into her house safely. Once she was out of his sight, he lets out a deep breath, one he didn’t realize he was holding in his chest. He leans back against the car seat, running a hand through his hair. His night wasn’t going the way he thought it would, but hopefully meeting B at the Fall Ball would set things back on track.
Or so he thought.
•°•
He wasn’t expecting the pang of jealousy that hit him when he finally saw B at the Fall Ball.
She was right when she said that his jaw would drop when he saw her dress. She looked breathtaking, and he smiled to himself when he noticed that her blue dress matched his blue hair perfectly. But when he noticed that she was on the dance floor with her face buried in some other guy’s chest and this guy’s hands around her waist, he felt his blood boil.
How dare someone else hold his girlfriend like that.
But as they sway to the music and they shift their positions, Yeonjun finds himself surprised when he finally gets a look at the guy’s face.
It was Soobin. Yeonjun should’ve known by the way he towered over B, and because of the fact that he had asked Soobin to step in for him until he could make it to the dance, but the feeling of seeing him hold B that way shocked Yeonjun.
He felt betrayed.
He trusted Soobin enough to know that he would never make a move on his girlfriend behind his back, but he couldn’t deny the sparks he saw whenever Soobin and B were together. All the way back from the first day of school when Soobin caught her from falling down the front steps of MO Academy, to Hueningkai’s birthday party when Yeonjun was people-watching and he noticed how Soobin had his eyes fixed on B the whole night, to the night of his birthday party when he noticed how flustered Soobin got when he had to kiss B, to tonight when he saw how intimate Soobin and B looked locked in each other arms on the dance floor.
He knew he wasn’t the best boyfriend, especially given the fact that he had kissed his ex girlfriend a total of 2 times now behind his current girlfriend’s back, but he couldn’t help the jealousy that was starting to pound into his ears. He knew that B got jealous too, and maybe she had good reason to given his history with Rose, but those were both mistakes. Those kisses weren’t his fault, and it was only normal for him to feel a little jealous too, seeing her with another guy.
Before he knew what he was doing, his feet were guiding him towards the pair on the dance floor and he finds himself tapping Soobin on the shoulder.
He sees a flash of something in Soobin’s face when he turns and sees Yeonjun standing there, but he ignores it. Instead, he smiles and says “Excuse me, but may I interrupt?”
B’s head snaps out of Soobin’s chest then, her eyes meeting his now, wide with surprise.
“Yeonjun! Y—you’re here.” she exclaims, jumping out of Soobin’s arms and towards Yeonjun.
He smiles at her endearingly. “Hey, Baby. I made it right on time.”
He watches as her eyes shift between him and Soobin before she smiles and gives Yeonjun a hug. He engulfs her in his arms, kissing the top of her head, his nose scrunching up when he realizes that her smell was tainted with hints of baby powder and vanilla. Soobin’s scent.
Soobin gives him a pat on the back then. “Glad you could make it. Cleaned up pretty nicely, too.” Yeonjun smirks. Of course he made sure to look his best. He had an extra shirt, tie and coat tucked away in his car and he changed on the way to MO Academy.
“Are you flirting with me?” he says jokingly. “Thanks for taking care of my Baby for tonight, Soob.” he says, purposely wrapping an arm around B’s shoulders and pulling her to his side.
“Don’t mention it. You 2 enjoy the rest of the night now, I’ll see you back at the table.” Soobin says, flashing a warm smile before he retreats, turning his back to them.
Yeonjun nods at him and watches as he walks away, but before he can get very far, B suddenly takes a step forward and reaches for his arm.
“Soobin, wait.” she says, causing both of the boys to freeze. Yeonjun stares at her hand clutched onto the ends of Soobin’s sleeve as Soobin looks back at her.
“Yes, B?” he asks tentatively. Cautiously.
B’s silent for a moment, and although her back was turned to Yeonjun, he could tell that she was struggling to say whatever it was she wanted to.
“I just wanted to say, um, thank you. For tonight.” she finally says, and Yeonjun feels a pang of guilt in his chest as he recalls how Rose had sad the exact same thing to him earlier that night before they shared a kiss.
“No problem, B. The pleasure was all mine.” Soobin says, smiling warmly at B and giving Yeonjun a small nod before turns and disappears into the crowd.
As Soobin walks away, Yeonjun wraps his arms around B’s waist, resting his chin on her shoulder, mildly disturbed to once again catch a whiff of baby powder and vanilla. He leans in close, close enough so that his lips would brush against her ear as he whispers “You wanna dance, Baby?”
She turns to face him, a bright smile on her face. “I’d love to.” she says.
Yeonjun grins, subtly rubbing his face in the crook of her neck, hoping that some of his scent would rub off on her skin to get rid of Soobin’s smell, before he grabs her hand and spins her around on the dance floor, causing her to squeal and giggle.
Back at table 21, Soobin watches as B lays her head on Yeonjun’s chest, her hands laid on his shoulders as his arms circled around his waist, and he tries to put himself in Yeonjun��s place, which he was in up until a few moments ago. He watches as the 2 of them slowly move to the rhythm of the mellow music, and he watches as Yeonjun plants a gentle kiss on B’s forehead as the song ends, until a new one starts and they start dancing again.
And again.
And again.
He watches until Taehyun finally announces that the Jazzed club had already performed their final song for the night, and that the DJ will be accepting song requests.
He watches until Taehyun, Beomgyu and Kai finally get off stage and join him at their table, Yuna eventually joining them too, taking her place beside Kai.
“Soobin?” Taehyun asks, noticing how spaced out Soobin looked.
“Hm?” he responds, his eyes still absentmindedly watching the couples still dancing in the ballroom, or at least, on one couple in particular.
“Are you okay?” Taehyun asks, nudging him until Soobin’s eyes meet his.
Soobin forces a smile. “I’m good, yeah.” he says, leaving Taehyun unconvinced.
Taehyun takes a quick look around their table, making sure that Kai and Yuna wouldn’t hear him, before he leans in a bit closer and says “I saw you dancing with B earlier, and it looked like things were going well. What happened? Where is she?”
Soobin hesitates, chewing on his bottom lip before he tries to subtly tilt his head in the direction of the dance floor. Taehyun follows the direction, confused at first, until he spots a familiar head of blue hair in the crowd and the girl he had his arms around.
“Ah.” Taehyun quietly says, looking back at Soobin with a regretful look in his eyes. He gently pats his hand over his on the table. “So he came.”
Soobin smiles at him again, a little more genuine this time. “Yes, and I’m glad he did. Look how happy she is now that he’s here.”
“Mm-hm, I mean she looked pretty happy when I spotted you 2 on the dance floor earlier, but if it means anything, at least Yeonjun kept his promise. I was worried he wouldn’t make it, knowing how strict his dad is when it comes to business endeavors.” Taehyun says. “When did he get here?”
“Um, about 30 minutes ago?” Soobin says, trying to count the number of times he watched Yeonjun kiss the top of B’s head with every song that ended. “They’ve been dancing since he got here.”
Taehyun raises a brow. “Well, we all know how much Yeonjun loves to dance. I’m sure they’ll stop by the table to rest for a bit though. Are you sure you wanna be sitting here for the rest of the night? You could ask someone to dance with you, or go for some refreshments.” Taehyun offers. “Gyu and I will just resting for a bit before we hit the dance floor.”
“Yeah, my date’s been too busy dealing with last minute crisises all evening, we haven’t danced to a single song.” Beomgyu suddenly butts in, whining.
“It’s crises, not crisises.” Taehyun corrects him, grimacing yet inwardly wondering how he ended up falling for someone who could make such an adorably simple grammatical error. “And I promise we’ll dance soon. I’m just checking on Soobin.”
“Oh no, please, go ahead and dance. You guys should enjoy your evening.” Soobin says, feeling embarrassed now. “You don’t have to worry about me, I’m perfectly fine. I’ll be heading out and making rounds in a bit to check if everything is going smoothly anyway.”
“You heard him, c’mon Tyun, Soobin’s a big boy who can handle himself perfectly fine.” Beomgyu says, tugging on his date’s arm.
Taehyun looks around the table, noticing that Kai and Yuna had already left and were probably somewhere on the dance floor. He gives Soobin one last look before he sighs. “Alright, whatever you say. But if you need anything, don’t hesitate to let me know, okay? I’m here for you.” he says, gently squeezing Soobin’s shoulder before letting himself be dragged away by a very persistent Beomgyu.
Soobin watches as Beomgyu drags him right to the middle of the dance floor, the crowd magically parting to let them through. All eyes seem to be following them as Beomgyu flamboyantly wave an arm in the air before holding his hand out to Taehyun, who rolls eyes before taking his hand, letting out a squeal in surprise as Beomgyu suddenly twirls him around before pulling him towards him, the 2 boys chest to chest with Beomgyu’s hands on Taehyun’s waist as they start to sway to the music.
“Wow, look at that. Who knew Gyu and Tyun would be so freaking adorable together?” B says, watching in awe as all eyes lock on the 2 boys in the middle of the dance floor.
“I have to admit, they are pretty cute together.” Yeonjun says, leaning down to whisper in B’s ear. “But I think we’re cuter.”
She giggles as his breath tickles her neck. “Oh, hush. Look at them! They look amazing together.” she says, and right on cue she sees Beomgyu say something in Taehyun’s ear and the younger boy rolls his eyes but then suddenly smiles at the former, unable to stop himself. “They’re definitely cuter than us.”
“Stop saying that, we’re adorable!” Yeonjun huffs. “I even ducked out of that stupid business party and rushed over here just so I could see you tonight.” he pouts playfully. “If that’s not adorable, then I don’t know what that is.”
“Sweet, that’s what it is.” B says, reaching up to cup his face in her hand. “The sweetest, actually. Thanks for being here, Junnie. It means a lot to me.”
He smiles easily, his cheeks warming up as she looks up at him. “It’s my pleasure. Anything for you, Baby.” he says, pulling her closer. “Because I love you.”
Now it was her turn to have her cheeks heat up. She lets out an awkward laugh, flustered. “Thanks again.” she says, not sure if she was ready to tell him she loved him back yet. “How was your evening, by the way? Was the party boring? Are you tired?” she asks, wanting to change the topic.
He laughs, knowing she was shy. “Ah, it wasn’t much of a party. It was more like a gathering of boring rich people trying to out-talk each other about who’s richer and who’s business is doing better and whatnot. It was physically and mentally draining to be there, but I feel so much better now that I’m here with you.” he says, as smooth as ever.
B raises a brow. “You always know what to say, don’t you?” she says. “My feet are starting to kill me in these heels. Do you think we can take a little break and sit at the table?”
Yeonjun nods, easily accepting her suggestion. “Whatever you want, Baby.” he says, leading her away from the dance floor and back to table 21, surprised to see that it was empty.
“Wow, I guess all the guys are busy with their dates.” Yeonjun says, sitting down after pulling a chair for B. “I wonder if Soobin has found someone to keep him company tonight, too.”
B’s eyes search the crowd, spotting their friends one by one, save for the said boy. “Ah, if Soobin’s not at the table he’s either getting some refreshments or dealing with behind the scenes stuff to check if things are running smoothly.”
“How are you so sure he’s not dancing with anyone?” Yeonjun asks, raising a brow.
“I’ve been trying to convince him to ask a girl to dance all night, but I guess he’s just taking his duty as Student Council President too seriously to relax and enjoy himself.” B says, shaking her head.
“That sounds like Soobin.” Yeonjun says, taking a quick peek at his phone before setting it down on the table. “Speaking of refreshments, want anything? I could get you a drink or maybe some snacks?” he offers.
B nods. “Oh, yes please! I mean, I knew you love to dance, but I don’t think I can keep up. I need to rehydrate before I step foot on the dance floor again.”
Yeonjun laughs. “My body’s used to it from all the hours I’ve spent training and practicing.” he says. “Okay, you sit tight and I’ll be right back with a couple of drinks, alright?” he says, planting a quick peck on her forehead before making his way to the refreshments table on the other side of the event hall.
B takes the time alone to marvel at the evening, from the beauty of the event hall to the performances by the Jazzed club to Yeonjun appearing right on time. She crosses her legs under the table, absentmindedly tapping her foot to the beat of the music, counting the number of couples dancing past their table, until she feels a buzz on the table and hears the ring of a message alert tone.
Her eyes instinctively move towards the direction of the sound, moving down leading towards Yeonjun’s phone on the table.
Upon seeing what the notification was for, she wishes that she didn’t follow her instincts.
She feels her entire body go cold, her eyes repeatedly reading the message until the screen goes black, the words etched in her mind. Surely, there must have been some mistake. Maybe she just was just seeing things. Before she can convince herself that her eyes must’ve been playing tricks on her, Yeonjun’s phone rings, the screen lighting up with a new message, the messages displayed on his lock screen clear as day.
Tumblr media
Before she could fully stomach what she was seeing, Yeonjun returns to the table with 2 wine glasses in hand, taking his seat next to her. He was saying something about how he spotted a few couples getting a little too intimate on the dance floor, but his voice just sounded garbled to her. All she could do at the moment was try to absorb and make sense of what she saw and figure what she would do about it.
Yeonjun grabs her hand on the table then, snapping her out of her thoughts as he notices that she hadn’t been paying attention to a word he was saying. He turns her palm face up and lightly traces along the lines and creases, knowing how much she liked it when he did that.
“Baby? You okay?” he asks, concern plastered on his face.
She wanted to say ‘Yeah, it’s nothing’ or maybe something like ‘No, but let’s talk about it later.’ But before she could collect her thoughts and compose herself, her mouth spoke out the words without her consent.
“Were you with Rose tonight?”
Yeonjun freezes, his hand going still over hers, and her heart sinks as she realizes that it was true.
“Why would you think that, Baby?” he asks carefully, and her heart sinks further, lurching somewhere in the pit of her stomach.
“Yeonjun. Were you with her tonight, and did you give her a ride home?” she asks, and when he doesn’t respond, she continues. “You left your phone face up on the table when you left to get drinks. And while you were away, the screen lit up with a text message from her. I wasn’t trying to snoop or anything, I never had any reason to doubt you or feel the need to worry about you hiding anything from me. Until now, that is. All I did was look down and I saw it without even meaning to, so if you were gonna hide it from me, you should have tried harder. Heck, it’s like you didn’t even try to hide it at all.”
“Baby, no—” he begins, but B’s eyes widen as another thought comes into her mind and she interrupts him, the words pouring out of her mouth as the thoughts enter her mind.
“Oh god, you didn’t even try, did you? You were with her and you didn’t even try to hide it. Is it cause you wanted me to find out? Is this your way of saying that you don’t wanna be with me anymore? Is this your messed up way of letting me know that you’ve been seeing her and maybe you didn’t know how to tell me so you leave your phone here on purpose so I’ll see it and get the hint?”
“It’s not like that.” Yeonjun says, his eyes trying hard to relay what he was feeling.
“I get it. You wanted to be with her tonight so you go to that stupid business party but then come here to break things off with me? Or heck, maybe you wanted to get lucky with me tonight before breaking things off with me to be with her, is that it? That’s what Choi Yeonjun does, love ‘em and leave ‘em, right?” she says, her tone becoming less shocked and confused and more frantic and spiteful.
Yeonjun looks at her, the hurt in his eyes apparent in his face. She was spiraling, the thoughts swirling around in her head growing more twisted and mixed up the more she thought about it, but she couldn’t help it. Her thoughts were coming out unbidden, as if her mind was flooded and her mouth was a stream just letting it all out
“Baby, Baby please, listen to me. Let’s go outside, someplace quiet.” Yeonjun says, standing up and begging her with his eyes to follow him. “Baby please, come on.” he pleads, lightly tugging on her hand.
She takes a deep breath and nods almost mechanically, standing up and following his lead. As he guides her through the crowded event hall and out into the hallway, he keeps looking back at her to see if she was still following, but whenever his eyes met hers, it felt like she wasn’t even there. They pass by Soobin on their way out, speaking to the security team at the entrance about the guest list and the tickets. When Soobin catches sight of Yeonjun looking tense and B following behind him, he’s confused. When his eyes meet Yeonjun’s, they’re full of nothing but concern, but Yeonjun just shakes his head at him without stopping.
He only stops when they reach the parking lot, the sound of music playing from the event hall almost inaudible outside in the chill of the night. As a gust of cold wind blows between them, he attempts to offer her his coat to keep her warm, but she holds her hand up, unbothered by the cold.
“Yeonjun. I need you to tell me what’s going on right now, because I swear, I’m going out of my mind trying to comprehend what I saw.” B says, her voice oddly calm and detached.
Yeonjun takes a deep breath before he begins, saying a little prayer that things would go well. “Okay, yes, I was with Rose tonight. The business party I attended was hosted by Kim Jisoo, and if my birthday party was any indication, where Kim Jisoo is, Rose naturally would be there too.” Yeonjun admits. “I wanted to invite you to come to the party with me, but I knew how excited you were for the Fall Ball and I didn’t want to ruin your night by forcing you to come to this stupid party with my ex present, so I thought it would be better if I simply stopped by the party for a bit and then spend the rest of my night here with you.”
“So is that supposed to make me feel better? And what makes you so sure I would’ve preferred going to the dance without you over going to some stupid party with you?” B asks, her frustration growing. “Why did you make that decision for me? And if you felt so forced to attend this stupid party, why did you have to spend the evening with her? Why did she feel the need to text you then? Were you hanging out with her the whole time? Did you even try to keep your distance from her after I’ve told you how uncomfortable I feel about you with her?”
“Baby, that’s not fair, I was just—”
“You know what’s not fair? You attending a party knowing fully well that your ex would be there. No, wait, I know your attendance at the party and the attendance of your ex at the party is something beyond your control, but Yeonjun, you could’ve at least told me about it! You could’ve given me a heads up, you could’ve simply let me know instead of doing it behind my back.”
“Baby, the only reason I didn’t tell you is because I didn’t want to ruin your night and I didn’t want you to feel bad. I was just trying to protect you!” Yeonjun says, his voice raising slightly when hers did.
B looks at him incredulously. “Wow, protect me? By lying to me? Yeonjun, I’d rather live with the hard cold shitty truth than live in blissful ignorance with a lie. And can you honestly say that the only reason you hid this from me was to protect me? There’s no other reason why you didn’t tell me?”
Yeonjun hesitates, only for a moment, but seeing it made B flinch. Over the course of their relationship, there were a few things that she had taken notice of about Choi Yeonjun. When he was excited about something, his voice would go a few octaves higher. When he was nervous about something, he would bounce on the balls of his feet nonstop. And when he was lying about something? He would take a deep breath and his eyes would fall to the ground, which is exactly what he did just now.
Upon seeing her flinch, Yeonjun starts to panic, feeling a sense of alarm, as if he could either make or break the situation depending on how the next few moments play out, as if there were a ticking time bomb and he only had a few minutes to defuse it before it exploded.
“Baby, look, Rose means nothing to me. Seeing her tonight was just a chore, and I only hung around her cause my father wants me to stay on Kim Jisoo’s good side, and you know she and Rose are close friends—” he reaches for her, hoping that his touch would break down her walls, but she steps away from him.
“Okay, let’s just cut the crap. I am willing to let this go, to forget all about this and merrily move on and dance the night away with you if you honestly tell me one thing.” B says.
Yeonjun looks at her hopefully, nodding eagerly. “Yes, yes, alright, what is it?”
B takes a deep breath. “Has anything ever happened between you and Rose since we started dating?”
She watches as the hopeful light in Yeonjun’s eyes dies, his face dropping and his shoulders sagging, and she feels her heart break into a million pieces.
“Thanks. That’s all I needed to know.” she says, her voice cracking as her hands start to shake.
“I’m sorry. Baby, I’m sorry, but I promise, it wasn’t that bad, it was barely even—” he begins again, but she couldn’t handle it anymore. All she could feel was her heart being torn out of her chest and bleeding out on the pavement. She squeezes her eyes shut.
“Yeonjun.”
B could feel the heat behind her eyes, knowing that tears were threatening to fall. She could feel heart pounding out of her chest, her hands shaking as she bunches them into fists at her side, clenching them together to stop herself from falling apart right then and there. “I don’t think I can do this anymore.” she continues, knowing that it was true.
“Baby, please, wait.” Yeonjun pleads, taking a step forward and reaching a hand out towards her. She closes her eyes and takes a small step back, keeping the distance between them. He visibly flinches, hurt by her aversion, but he continues to speak. “Please, take 3 deep breaths and try to calm down. Hear me out. Please.”
B keeps her eyes shut, shaking her head. “Yeonjun, no. I can’t do this. I don’t know how I can possibly get past this. I don’t think I could ever let this go.” How did her night go so horribly wrong? She was wearing the most beautiful dress she had ever laid her eyes on, she was having a blast at the Fall Ball, dancing her heart out letting go of all the worries she had, and she had been surrounded by people who she knew loved and cared for her.
So how the hell did she get here?
Yeonjun feels his heart drop. “So what do you want to happen now? What do you want me to do? Tell me anything, and I’ll do it. Baby, I’ll do anything for you. Just please tell me how I can make this right.” he starts, pleading helplessly as he feels her pulling away.
“You want to know what I want to happen?” B asks, gathering up the strength to look him right in his eyes, tears falling down from her own as she says, “I want this to stop. This, us, this evening, this pain, this nightmare, I just want this all to stop. I think the best thing you could do for me now is just let me go, don’t make this hurt any more than it already does. Just let me go.” she says, now pleading as well, tears now spilling uncontrollably down her face. “Yeonjun, please, just let me go.”
“Baby, please, don’t.” Yeonjun says, his voice cracking as what she was saying hits him, knocking the air out of his lungs as his breaths start to come out in sharp gasps, his eyes damp with tears that threatened to fall.
B shakes her head, taking a shaky breath and biting her lip to stop it from quivering. She takes one last look at him looking painfully beautiful with is blue hair blowing in the wind, his soft eyes looking at her like a lost child, his plump lips shaking as he tries not to cry. She takes one last moment to look at the boy she loved before she says
“This is goodbye, Yeonjun. I’m breaking up with you.” •°• Author’s note: Thank you so much for your patience!! The past few weeks have been very hectic. The typhoon that hit my country a few days ago and the 2 days I spent without electricity definitely didn’t help, but alas, here’s chapter 16!! Please let me know what you think, don’t be afraid to leave a message, anonymous or not, cause my asks are open!! I’m still trying to figure out how to make my Tumblr more easy to navigate, but don’t be afraid to reach out to me!! Don’t forget to stream We Lost The Summer MV!!

2 part commission - Harry Hook x reader - the masked princess - part 1
Tumblr media Tumblr media
commission from @musicarose​
=
You sat silently at an empty lunch table, watching as those at the next looked at you wearily and whispered to each other.
You sighed, leaning on your hand and picking at your food.
You were the second daughter of Aurora and Phillip, the younger sister of Audrey…the one everyone avoided because of your sister's attempted take over.
It wasn’t fair, almost everyone had forgiven her within the day she was returned to normal, and almost everyone shunned you for what SHE did.
You looked up, watching as your sister walked through the doors, laughing and smiling with Jane and Evie. You swallowed down the pit in your throat and stuffed some mac n cheese in your mouth.
It wasn’t fair.
--
You looked up from your sketchbook notebook as the teacher announced there would be new students joining the class.
“Everyone, I want you to welcome our new students.” you felt your breath stop as a tall, dark, handsome boy walked through the doors, his bright ocean blue eyes scanning the room as a girl with long teal hair entered in after him.
‘That’s uma’ you thought, remembering her from your sister's ramblings ‘so that must be…’
“Harry ‘ook” the tall boy muttered, obviously bored as the teacher made him introduce himself. ‘Harry Hook’ you finished your thought, finally tearing your eyes away from the handsome son of Hook.
“Alright, Harry you sit back there with miss (whatever aurora and Phillips last name is) and uma-“ you ignored the rest of the teacher's speech, watching from the corner of your eye as Harry made his way towards you and sat down in the desk next to you.
You didn’t bother to say hi, you knew the others would tell him to stay away from you as soon as they got a grip on him.
It didn’t stop your heart from latching onto him, even if you told it that it would never happen.
Because in the week and months following, you saw a side that you knew many others didn’t see.
He was a brother, his playfulness with the younger members of his crew, making faces at his sisters when they weren’t looking. His laughter as CJ jumped onto his back and demanded to be carried.
He was creative, humming little tunes as he worked, little doodles on the edges on his page, the spark of excitement in his bright ocean blue eyes when the teacher would assign an art or writing based assignment.
He was a strategist, joining tourney and quickly rising the ranks to the captain as he shaped up the team and destroying the other schools with quick and witty plans.
 He was smart, in the sense of people, able to tell if someone was angry or sad from simply glancing at their hands. He could taunt someone into messing up, leading to many a victory in tourney and R.O.A.R. along with getting someone like chad to leave the new young isle kids alone.
He was kind, you had seen him carry small animals in his coat and hoodies, cooing at them and handling them gently. He stayed with crew members and younger members of the isle as they cried or had panic attacks.
He was brave, diving into deep-sea waters as Jane fell in. tackling a rabid animal as it tried to attack dude, standing up to a deranged villain.
You just couldn’t help but fall in love with the bright blue-eyed pirate. And it sucked, knowing he only knew you as ‘the girl who I sit next to in a couple of classes and gave me a pencil one time’
So you sat in your corner, watching as girls flirted with him, and him flirt back…including your sister.
She didn’t know you liked him but it still hurt, but you knew that if he had a choice he would choose her over you.
She was more outgoing, she was the perfect daughter, she was the oldest daughter of Aurora, she was the one in the spotlight.
Why would the handsome, brave, kind and charming Harry Hook choose the plain, closed in, and unnoticed younger sister of Audrey.
Then one day.
Tumblr media
You tilted your head, taking one of the free flyers in the clear hanging box next to the hanging poster, turning it over to see the back
-meet at the grand ballroom (cafeteria) the 31st at 7 pm-
That…that sounded fun, you smiled to yourself, you needed a night to just…let yourself be unknown because so many others would be as well.
But…your shoulders sagged, you didn’t have any dresses, and you were too socially awkward to go ask for one.
So as the day of the ball drew closer, you watched as the other students chatter about their outfits and masks, some considering asking their crush or s/o to the ball.
You listened to your sister wonder about asking Harry…and you sat in the background, sketching out a beautiful blue mask and dress, based on the blue version of your mother's classic dress.
A knock sounded at the window of your room, you and your sister looked to each other and you stood and carefully looked out, sighing in relief as three balls of light floated about.
You opened the window and stepped aside.
Fauna, flora, and Merryweather gently flew in, growing in size as they landed on the floor. “hello children~” fauna cheered, her and flora walking over to Audrey as Merryweather sat next to you, offering a cookie.
“We heard there's a ball coming up and we want to help you get ready!” flora cheered, clapping her hands together.
You sighed and sat back, Merryweather tilting her head at you “(y/n)? sweetheart, what's wrong?”
“I don’t think im going” you muttered, Merryweather puffed up and leaned forward.
“why not?”
“well, I don’t have a dress or mask for it, and the guy I like is probably going with Audrey, I- I really don’t see a reason to go” you looked down to your lap, playing with your fingers.
“well…that’s not- alright, ill help make you a dress and mask, and you'll go to the ball, and you'll turn everyone's head and get that boy!”
You shushed her, you didn’t want Audrey to hear “no! not so loud, besides, who would want me there?”
“us!” Merryweather stressed, “we’ll be there as chaperones, and we want you to go out for once and have fun!”
You sighed, laughing a little and nodding “alright, alright ill go!”
Merryweather smirked and gave a triumphant nod. “good, now show me what your thinking of wearing”
As you showed her your sketch, Merryweather's face brightened “oh my, (y/n) that is a gorgeous dress! And that mask-ohhhh that boy will go gaga over you”
You chucked, shaking your head. “alright merry”
As Audrey left with flora and fauna, merry magicked up some blue ombre fabric, gently floating the sketch page in front of her and muttering some random words and measurements.
“you'll look amazing trust me love” you sighed, letting Merryweather do her work.
“and ill enchant it so it won't fit anyone else but you since I know how your sister is” you burst out laughing recalling all the times she borrowed your clothes and never returned them.
“thanks” you settled down in the windowsill chair and pulled your sketchbook to you, sketching down a particular boy and girl dancing away.
===
You finished the wing on your liner, breathing deeply and edging from your mirror, all that was left was to do your hair and get dressed, and then it would be time to go to the ball.
“alright (y/n) you got this, it's just a ball, everyone will be wearing masks, no one will know it's you”
Audrey was already at the “ballroom” being apart of the planning committee. “and maybe- maybe harry will notice you? Yeah right”
You snorted, backing away from the mirror and looking to your bed, smiling softly at the ombre blue ball gown, the light blue mask resting next to it.
“Alright, let's do this!”
---
Harry sighed, he was bored, Audrey wouldn’t shut up and leave him alone, he wished he hadn’t been convinced to come along by evie.
He reached up, fixing the sliding mask on his nose and stood from leaning against the wall, ignoring Audrey as she asked him what he was doing.
He walked to the punch line, groaning loudly as uma stepped next to him, her teal sea-themed mask staring back at him. “your bored aren’t you?” she chuckled.
“there's no one interestin’” he snorted. Looking around the room….wait who- “uma whos tha’?” harry whispered, pointing over to the main doors.
Uma turned, her brows raising as she spotted who harry was talking about.
The masked girl wore an off-shoulder blue ombre ball gown with glitter on the end of the skirt, an elegant blue mask encrusted with diamonds placed delicately on her face.
Tumblr media
Her (h/c) hair (curled, straightened, braided) and framing her face perfectly.
Smokey eyes hiding behind the mask, (lip type) lips painted with a tint of (reddish/peach/whatever color u want)
“Wow, she's pretty” she whistled, smirking as harry broke away from her and walked directly to the girl.
“uh oh” she chuckled “I feel like im in one of those classic fairy tales now”
“why?” Gil came up behind her, mask on top of his head, and eating honey beignets.
“you know it, the young man, bored at the ball, unamused by anyone's advances, suddenly he stops! For there she stands, the girl of his dreams!” gil looked up, seeing Harry's red-suited form walking up to the girl in blue.
“who she is or where she came from he does not know, nor does he care” uma smirked watching as harry gently grabbed her hand, the girl whipping around surprised, her ears becoming darker.
“for his heart tell him, that here, here is the maiden destined to be his~” Harry pressed his lips to her hand, smiling at her.
Uma and Gil looked to each other and chuckled “it seems we may have an addition to the crew?”
“if she unmasks herself at the end of the night like everyone else” uma thought aloud. Gentle music began to play, harry bowed and held his hand out to the girl, inviting her to dance.
She took his hand and he led her to the main dance floor, joining the others.
“uma” Gil announced in a posh voice “may I have this dance milady~”
Uma let out a cackle “you may~”
---
You knew Harry was the one who had walked up to you, kissed your hand, asked you to dance, and continued to spend the night with you.
And you didn’t care, you knew he didn’t know who you were, and would forget about you the next day. But you didn’t care, you would follow Merryweather's wish for you to simply have fun.
It had been a wonderful couple of hours, you had met uma and gil for the first time, and you loved them (you wished you were brave enough to meet them without the mask) you met his sisters CJ and Harriet.
And now you and harry sat just outside the ballroom on the balcony simply talking and laughing.
Harry tilted his head at you, a bright smile on his face “so lass, how come I haven’t seen yeh around the school, Im sure I would have noticed a bonnie lass like yeh around.”
You gave a nervous giggle and shrugged “im not that noticeable, trust me”
You jumped as the bell sounded, looking inside you saw the rest of the school standing in front of the stage where the band was, seeing fairy godmother announce the removal of the masks.
“oh, I have- I have to go!” you stood, desperate to leave when Harry grabbed your wrist, you whipped back around, chest hurting as you looked into Harry's confused eyes.
“But why? Everyones about ta remove their masks, I don’t even know yer name?” you shook free, holding your hand close to your chest.
“im-im sorry”
“10!”
“please at least tell me yer name” harry pleaded, you bit your lip, you didn’t want to tell him your name, you knew as soon as you did he would know and would avoid you like all the others.
“rose…my name is rose” really (y/n)? your mother's old name?
“rose…ill find yeh” you looked into his bright ocean blue eyes one last time and bolted, not bearing to look as the crowd said the final number and removed their masks.
…Harry looked after you, slowly removing his mask.
“ill find yeh” he muttered, he promised to himself, he would find his masked princess.
-----
You slammed your dorm room closed, doing your best to not hyperventilate. “okay…okay, breathe (y/n) breathe! He doesn’t know it was you, he won't find out!”
You stopped “oh but…” a smile bloomed on your face “even if he does….ill never regret this night”
You leaned off the door, slowly dancing as you made your way across the room.
“so this is what mom felt when she met dad” you sighed, removing your mask and gloves, placing them into a box to shove under your bed.
You paused, thumb brushing against the nose of the mask “maybe ill get my prince?”

omg hi! you started off your blog greatly, im so proud of you! do you think you can write an angsty scenario for akaashi? where his crush likes this guy and wants help from him and he feels all sad :( but she ends up confessing to him! i love your writing so far, keep it up!
UMM so i accidentally got really invested in this so it’s WAYY longer than a drabble and i often write long stuff bc of ao3 so this might sound a little more like that kinda fanfic style instead of a tumblr scenario? mainly cos im really a sucker for this stuff hehehe love you anon
also ! the request made it sound sort of akaashi-centric so i hope you dont mind? there will still be a lot of reader-chan here though! please dont leave yet and i hope u enjoy
again ALSO i wrote this half on my laptop half on my phone so please dont mind if it seems a lil clunky in some areas 
3092 words jesus ok here you go
-
Crushes weren’t necessarily a new sensation for Akaashi. Just an uncommon one. In fact, the last time he remembers even being attracted to someone was in first grade when everyone had a crush on this popular girl. He’s not even sure if he really liked her, or just found the idea of it interesting.
Now, second year of high school, Akaashi finds himself in trouble. Because for once, he really, really, really likes this girl. You. 
He can’t even fake himself out of this, because every damn time he looks at you, he feels all warm and tingly and his stomach feels less calm and he can hear his heart bump against his ribcage and god, his face even flushes a little bit.
(A little bit inconvenient when he accidentally finds himself staring at you and daydreaming.)
Akaashi doesn’t like this feeling.
I mean, yeah, Akaashi has somewhat of a sense of confidence in his looks, manners, and ability to make friends. He’s not exactly the top in each subject he thinks, but it lets him pass through high school without too much of a depressingly lonely life. He could easily befriend you and steal your heart, his inner ego-brat says.
But.. but what if you reject him?
He should become closer to you.
(For the record, he doesn’t not like the feeling. He kind of likes the serotonin boost you give him. But he definitely, more than kind of likes you.
A lot more.)
And one day, in the spring, he finds himself paired up with a special biology partner. With familiar, sparkling eyes and the cutest, most gorgeous voice he’s ever heard that always makes his heart fucking backflip.
Akaashi doesn’t think he can survive this.
His teacher blares, “Start brainstorming ideas for your science fair project! It’s due in a month, you know!”, but Akaashi blocks out the noise because all he can focus on is you, goddamn it. He can only focus on the way you push your hair out of your face, the way your lips upturn into the most stunning smile he’s ever had the fate of encountering, and he really hopes he doesn’t get h-
“Akaashi-kun?”
(Fuck you and your completely gorgeous voice that drives him up the wall and makes him want to kiss you.)
“Oh– sorry, yeah?” He kind of hates himself for how his voice lilted a pitch higher.
You laugh, sounding like a goddess. He hopes that it means you don’t hate him. “Ahaha, I was just wondering if you have any ideas for the science fair? It’s a pretty big chunk of our grade, and I am… not the smartest when it comes to AP Bio..”
Akaashi thinks quite the opposite, but he isn’t currently in the position to contradict you.
“Um…” He pauses and thinks furiously. He comes up with some borderline generic idea that has enough room for a unique twist. And your eyes brighten.
“Waaaoo, Akaashi-kun’s a genius, hm?”
(God, he thinks he might have a little more than a crush on that teasing grin and glittering pair of eyes.)
He musters the courage to smile without looking stupid. “Of course.”
Two weeks later, he wants to sink into a hole.
Yes, it might have been his request that you two meet up to work on the project, but that was because he knew you were a procrastinator! You would start the project the night before if he’d let you!
But it was not his idea to do it at his house.
Now he has to live with the fact that you’re lying on HIS bed, spread-eagled in your sweater and shorts, complaining about how lazy you are.
(He wonders how you’re so comfortable about wearing shorts to a male classmate’s house. You two aren’t even that close, although you claim otherwise.)
“Come on, get up,” he rolls his eyes. “We have work to do.”
“But I’m so tiiiiiredddd… and lazyyyy…. wouldn’t it be such a gentlemanly act of Akaashi-kun to do the project for me?” You flash him a sweet smile while stretching out even more on the bed.
Snorting, he watches you sink into his mattress and roll around idly. “Hey, don’t you need the grade? You can’t pass if you make me do your work.”
Sighing, you hum in defeated content. “Well, it was worth a try.” You reach out your hand and tousle his wavy hair, and he almost flinches at the touch. He hates to say it but he loves it so much that you’re so affection with him, and Akaashi knows he would give anything to keep you teasing him with all this attention.
“Yeah.. yeah, it was,” he murmurs to himself before letting himself sit down next to you. He notices how you scrunch your body from a spread-eagle to a cute, curled up position to make room for him.
“Mm, so how are we gonna do this?” you ask, with a subtle mixture of bored and curious seeping into your tone. Then, he watches your features melt into a warm, mischievous smile as you hum, “Unless you just wanna nap and cuddle or something.”
(Holy fuck.)
Akaashi forces himself to scowl playfully and he shakes his head, sighing loudly in mock disappointment. “I don’t know what to do with you.” And equally as teasing, he adds, “I should just kick you out and not treat you to lunch if you’re going to be like this.”
“Noooooo!!!” you whine in this adorably frustrated and threatening voice. “Don’t you dare starve me or I’m feeding you to the rats.”
He chuckles. “See, that’s what I thought.”
But of course, your face wraps into a devilish grin as you say in a singsong voice and throw your arms around him (which makes him flush and makes his heart go WABAM), “It doesn’t matter though, ‘cause I got this whole-ass meal right here~”
“Shut up.”
(But you both know he never means it.)
Thanks to Akaashi (and your obliging albeit lazy participation), you two blow the science fair out of the way and get an A. He’s never seen you so delighted about a grade.
“I’m so happy~” you never shut up about how grateful you are for him, not that he’s complaining. “This is probably the highest mark I’ve ever gotten in this class.”
“Don’t over exaggerate. You’re not too bad at Bio,” Akaashi remarks. “You just need a tutor, probably, if you’re struggling.”
(By the way, he is ecstatic that you two are ACTUALLY FRIENDS!!! He’s even met your dog!!)
“Hmmmm…” You eye him warily before shrugging. “Whatever you say, Akaashi-kun.” Your eyes flit around before returning on him, and you start rambling about the newest anime you’ve gotten into and how it’s practically on-par with the manga, and how hot one of their characters are-
(For some reason Akaashi really zeroes in on that part.)
He really feels like he has to contribute something to the conversation, so he puts in, “Wow, [Name]-san, you’re such a fangirl.”
You snort loudly and put two peace-signs to your face like some kawaii anime girl, doing this mock-sweet smile. “Waaaooo, you’re rightttt. I’m Akaashi-kun’s number one fan!! He’s so cute when he’s yelling at me to do my work and super hot when he helps me with homew-”
He swears to god his face is radiating an inhuman amount of heat and he rolls his eyes before shaking his head and jabbing your side lightly. “Didn’t I tell you not to say that?”
“Ummm, maybe.” Your ‘innocent’ grin tells him otherwise. “But you know, you’re right, Akaashi-kun,” you cross your arms and give your cute little smirk again. “I am a genius, and I’m suuuper good at Bio. I just need someone to channel it.” And you lean forward until both your noses are touching, and Akaashi thinks he’s about to explode. “So maybe you could help me out?”
The subtle pleading undercurrent in your voice compels Akaashi to straighten up a little bit without flushing even redder. Keep cool, keep cool.
(He prays that his skill of keeping a poker face will hide the blood rushing around in his dick.)
“Well, what time?”
This time around, he finds himself at your house instead. You both are sitting at your desk, ‘working’ on your math and Bio homework. In other words, just talking.
He’s confident now in that the two of you are close friends. He’s learned that from afar, you were a sweet and confident yet perfectly kind girl. That was the girl he based his feelings off of. During your Bio project, he found the cheeky, sly and vibrant yet chill girl who always teased him but was still nonetheless sweet.
And now, under that facade, you were an anxious mess with a shit-ton of insecurities.
(He thinks it’s funny how you boast that you’re just like Shrek. You have layers.)
Akaashi glances at you, groaning with your head down onto the table. “I hate math..” he hears you grumble.
“Hey, you’re not too bad. You just have to be careful when plugging in your equations,” he counters.
“But what if I can’t remember my equations??”
“We both know you’re fine at remembering them.”
“I’m gonna fail.”
“Have faith in yourself, because I do.” And Akaashi is being completely honest. His confidence in you being just fine and being able to pass all your classes is strong because he’s seen you work (after procrastinating). “You just have to work on not putting things off until the last minute.”
You make a frustrated noise before resting your chin on your propped hand. “Sometimes I feel like I’m just.. destined to be set back, y’know? Like, everything I do is gonna somehow backfire on me.”
He knows the feeling, especially late at night in bed, stressing over what tomorrow might bring him.
“And like… I have this whole thing set up for me. When people know me as a classmate, I’m an average student, right? Then when we’re like… ‘friends’, I’m all weird and tease-y.” You let out a loud sigh. “And to the unlucky people who get to this stage, I’m a mess.”
“Stop.” Akaashi’s surprised at how firm he is. “I’m grateful to have met you and to have become your friend, [Name]. You’re going to be fine, you need to trust yourself more. Because I trust you more than anything.”
(Yes, he is on first-name basis with you!! Yes, he trusts you even more than he might even trust Bokuto!!)
Your lips twitch into a small smile, one that he’s grown to love and adore. He’s confident that he’s so fucking deep in love and he doesn’t know how to move on. “You really think so?”
“Of course I do.” He flicks some crumpled-up post-it at you. “Since we’re not doing any homework anytime soon, what else do you want to talk about?”
Your gaze becomes a little more shy and nervous. “Umm… Weeell, I need help.”
“I mean, why else would I be here?”
“No, seriously, Keiji-kun. Seriously!!” You throw mock-fit, despite obviously looking anxious.
“Yeah, yeah, I’m listening. Sorry.”
“Uh. Um, so…” You blink and pretend to look focused on doodling on the corner of your math paper. “There’s this dude I like. Like, I reaaally like him, which is surprising even for me.” You laugh a little bit, and as Akaashi feels his heart start to tear in half, he forces out a chuckle to match. “He’s suuuper pretty– I think that’s the word for it? Pretty. And he’s kinda funny in his own way, and he’s really sweet and listens to me all the time even when I don’t deserve his time. And I dunno, I think he might like me back? Also, I really really really like him. But I don’t really know how to confess…
“Because you know, I’m kinda wack like that, haha. I’ll probably screw up the confession and make things worse, and, well, I need help.” You finish your ramble with a loud breath and you collapse your head onto the table, groaning.
“Uh–” Fuck, oh fuck him, fuck his life. “I mean… I think just a heartfelt confession would do? Something simple and sweet that says you really like him, in case somehow your words don’t work.” Akaashi feels like he’s sweating, a lot, and he feels even more frustrated than ever. His heart is crashing against his ribcage, and his mind is a fucking mess.
You frown a little bit, and suddenly a gush of words fly out of your mouth like a stream bursting from a dam. “Oh my god, what if I’m reading the signs all wrong and he doesn’t at all like me back? I mean, I wouldn’t blame him because I’m kinda ugly and have this weird personality thing going on and I’m shit at math and Bio-”
“Stop.” Akaashi forces himself to intervene, mainly because 1) you’re literally the light of his life and 2) he feels like he has to leave really soon after dealing with the news. “Shut up, [Name]. You aren’t ugly at all, and I, for one, enjoy your weird personality. And I already told you, you’re fine with academics.” He makes himself make eye contact with you, peering up from your arm covering your face, and says, “If he rejects you, he isn’t worth your time at all and you should move on.”
(Preferably with me.)
He watches you exhale, like he just unwound a tight spring from inside of you, and your shoulders relax and you melt from your anxious state, just a little bit. “You’re right. If.. if he doesn’t feel the same, I’ll just forget about him.”
“Because you’re a genius.” Akaashi tries to hype you up, but he still feels like crumbling. Falsely checking his phone, he stretches and stands up. “I have to go now, sorry. My mom asked me to pick up my little sister from tutoring.”
“Huh, already?” Confusion flits across your face, and it hurts him even more to just leave you after you confided in him, but he knows he has to leave before he says something he might regret. “Oh, okaayy.. see you tomorrow then. Thanks for helping me out.” You yawn before standing up to hug him goodbye.
“No problem.” He says it casually, but Akaashi feels his mood drop faster and lower than ever. He hugs you back, but he breaks away fast.
After leaving your house and collapsing onto his bed in his locked bedroom (with his 11-year-old sister knocking on the door and curiously asking what’s wrong), he can’t help but feel hurt that you couldn’t even tell him who your mystery crush’s name was.
A week passes by, and neither of you mention the conversation at your house. It doesn’t matter either way, since you two are still so casually best friends. At the same time, he desperately wants to push the matter just to find out who it is.
Otherwise, Akaashi has noticeably been more quiet and moody to the point that he doesn’t know how to control it. Sure, he keeps up the same as he would before your conversation, but he can’t help but feel his heart sink everytime he sees you. His mind is ecstatic every time he talks to you, while simultaneously wanting to tear itself apart.
He’s tried getting rid of feelings for you, in literally every way possible. From avoiding thinking about you (which backfired horribly because he ended up thinking more about you) to focusing on other girls (ew, none of them were even capable of creating the same effect on him as you do), he’s tried it all and it’s all failed.
Akaashi realizes his silent slump has gotten so bad to the point that Bokuto made him sit out a few practice matches in the gym just because Akaashi was nowhere near the spot that any of the team expected him to be at.
After school, he meets with you near the vending machine as always. You buy two cans of coffee, one for you and one for him.
As soon as he takes the can gratefully, you clear your throat.
“Yeah, [Name]?”
Glancing around before staring him in the eye, you start, “Keiji-kun, before you run away, I just…. I just wanted to let you know I really really really like you. Like, a lot.” You start speaking kind of fast, so Akaashi can’t process what you’re saying.
“And I mean it. Ever since the Bio project, you’ve been so nice to me and you’ve been such a great friend even though I made it hard sometimes, and along the way I just caught feelings. You honestly mean everything to me, and I appreciate you so much for everything we’ve been through. I- I think, I love you, Keiji. And I hope you accept my feelings.” You smile, almost nervously but nonetheless sincere, and Akaashi thinks he’s about to explode.
“I- I,” Fuck, oh my fucking god, he thinks to himself. He’s shaking a little bit– that’s how happy he is. “[Name], I..” God fucking damn it, he can’t even express how happy he is. He feels his cheeks blossom and he feels his lips quirk into this goofy smile.
But then he watches you shy away a little bit as you hurriedly say, “I- I mean, sorry. It’s okay if you just wanna be friends-”
“No.” Finally, Akaashi can use his mouth and then he gently takes your cheeks in his hands and closes the gap between you two, lips connecting in a display of pining and affection.
He practically melts into the kiss, he’s never been so happy. He thinks he’s actually about to implode; he’s been dreaming about kissing you like this, against your soft, plush lips. And finally he’s able to call you his, to call you the one. When the two of you finally break away for air, he’s breathing hard and his mind is a mess, which is rare considering his usual stoic state.
Akaashi has also never seen you so flustered and blushy. He murmurs into your ear as he takes your hand, “Feelings are 100% reciprocated.”
“I can tell,” you laugh breathily, and he’s so happy to hear that some of your anxiety has dissolved in that sweet kiss. He’s absolutely infatuated with you in every aspect. He leans in for a soft, quicker kiss on the lips and savors the feeling of warmth he gets. “Dork.”, he whispers.
“Only for you.”

“Trust me, it isn’t just for the camera.”
Tumblr media
Genre: fluff, babey !! nothin like a good ol idol au, am I rite, laid ease??
Warnings: bad words (like everything else I've written ever lol)
Pairing: Taeyong X female idol reader
A/N: junior year is almost over, thank god. I am so tired. writing this was such a good break from studying for my ap exams and cramming for finals. thank u, Taeyong. also, im working on something for the superhuman comeback, stay tuned, yall :)
you had been a model for sm for a few years now
well within your first year you had gained so much popularity that you became the company’s most hired model and had received a nickname from your employers and fans
you were their Golden Girl (hhhhhffk listen,,, we been knew I ain’t creative), and everyone was dying to work with their Golden Girl
most notable for your bubbly personality and striking looks, every employer was fascinated by your ability to pull off any look 
very similar is lee Taeyong, another artist signed to your company
with his stark beauty, it was no understatement to say that you would not have minded working with someone as pretty as him
so, when your manager told you about an upcoming project where you’d be working with Taeyong and a few of the other nct boys you were #sh00k to say the least
“wait..... WHAT?!” was all you could say in response to your manager telling you the good news
“Yeah, I know. I know how long you’ve wanted to work with him. Well, get ready. For this photoshoot they need you to have bubblegum pink hair, and.....” 
for the next few days, you tried to mentally prepare yourself for what was about to happen
yeah, you guys were signed to the same company but that doesn't mean you saw him all the time
you had only seen him once, and that was when you had just become a trainee and were walking through the halls to try and find the recording studio on the third floor
you accidentally went into the dance studio and found yourself interrupting a dance practice for nct u
“Sorry, I have to find someone in the recording studio, where-” 
“You’re fine, don't worry about it! If you go out this hallway, make the next left turn and it should be the second door on the right,” Taeyong said, giving you a small smile 
that was the ONLY interaction you had with him, but boy even when covered in sweat was he gorgeous
and you got to WORK WITH THAT 
the day finally came where you got to work with him yayayay
you woke up at 4 am after having only 1 hour of sleep, thriving
you got up and took a quick shower, did your skincare routine, and changed into comfy clothes for the day
on your way to meeting your manager you grabbed a few coffees for the staff as a thank you for the opportunity
you met your manager at the company building and it started to hit that 
//ohmygod this is really about to happen//
your manager tried her best to calm your nerves but damn, you were not having any of that
scrolling through Instagram, you anxiously awaited the company van that would take you to the photoshoot set
when it pulled up after about twenty minutes of waiting, you and your crew piled in and then you heard your manager tell the driver to hold the van for a few more minutes, seeing as Taeyong and his people were running a little behind
that only made your heart beat even faster
hgjaonfnwnw anxious from waiting, you just wanted to get it over with and rip it off like a bandaid
five minutes later, you saw three people walking over to the van
one of which was wearing sweats, sneakers, a hoodie, and a mask
you automatically recognized who that was despite the baggy clothing and half hidden face
oh fuck oh shit
one of the other two men talked to your manager, who had gotten out to speak to taeyong’s manager and the other person there
Taeyong climbed into the van and made eye contact with you in the back row, spotting the empty seat beside you
“Is this seat taken?” he asked, nodding to the spot right next to you
you felt a blush creep into your cheeks and your throat started getting closed up from nerves
so all you could do was shake your head no
he sat down and gave you a small smile, then started yawning and stretching out his arms
you had one extra coffee left from earlier and you figured it’d be a great ice breaker maybe 
“I have an extra coffee from a coffee run I went on earlier, do you want it? It’s not super hot or anything, but its still a little warm, and its caffeine,” you said and his eyes immediately lit up
“Oh, yes please!!” 
you grabbed the last cup from the drink carrier and gave it to him, and he thanked you right away
“How did you have enough time to go on a coffee run this morning?” Taeyong asked in shock
“I got up at four and am running on one hour of sleep,” you explained, not even trying to seem like you have it together
that's what its like being a hot mess, babey !!1
“That’s not good, you need to get more sleep. Were you out late last night with your schedule or something?” 
concerned mom? yes
“I was out until about eleven pm, yeah, but in all honesty... I couldn’t sleep because I was very nervous to meet you.” 
bro you need to get some sleep and get your filter back in place
bc when you get no sleep?? a bitch has NO filter whatsoever
Taeyong was genuinely surprised that you were nervous to meet him
“Really?? You were nervous to meet me?? Why, am I really that scary or something??” 
“Its not that you’re scary, exactly, but... I have wanted to work with you for a very long time, and it still hasn’t fully set in that this is my reality.” 
he nodded after you spoke, and it seemed to both impress and confuse him
no matter how popular him and his group got, he never got used to having people look up to him
and to hear it from someone as successful as you, someone he has constantly seen in the media for so long?? mind boggling
it kind of made him nervous tbh
before he could reply, the managers and everyone piled in and the van started moving to the photoshoot set
as soon as you guys left the company building, your head leaned onto the window and you passed tf out
when you woke up, Taeyong was tapping you on the shoulder and telling you that yall got to the set finally
taeyong’s face greeting you when you woke up? shocking, but not an unwelcome sight
“Alright, we need to get you guys into hair and makeup, then we will send you both over to wardrobe and they'll make any last minute touchups and then you can get to work. Sound good?” your manager told you two, and when you both nodded, she immediately directed you to the makeup studio
your artists were very excited to work with you, which made everything much more pleasant
“The feel we are going for with this shoot will perfectly fit your aesthetic and your features, I’m so excited!!” and “You’re naturally this pretty? And after only one hour of sleep? Oh my god, my under eye bags are permanent and it looks like you don’t have any at all!” or the occasional “I wish I could be as stunning as you without even trying...” 
it sounded like Taeyong was going through the same thing, as you could hear some of the other makeup artists gushing about his sharp features
“Wow, your eyes are so beautiful!” and “Your smile is stunning!” and “I wish I was half as pretty as you are!” 
you could tell it made him a bit uncomfortable because he sat there with a :} face 
(unrelated but: that face looks like the grinch lowkey, ok sorry for interrupting lol, back to the fic)
you two made eye contact in the mirror and you could practically read his mind
I want this to stop, they’re making me uncomfortable, oh my god. 
to which your eyes said, Same here, and I am used to dealing with this on a daily basis.  
luckily, they finished putting shadows and liner on your eyelids, and then they sent you to the hair department
for hair, they teased and curled your hair, giving you a tired and just woken up look
well, a styled just woken up kind of look
Taeyong came in halfway through your hair and all they had to do for him was throw some gel in his and make it a little messy and he was good to go
by the time you made it to wardrobe Taeyong was already on set and getting individual pictures for the concept
they threw you in clothes, and by clothes you mean a men’s oversized white button up, short shorts, and a bright red bra
and before you could even leave to head to the set, they made sure that the first few buttons were undone on the shirt
to say you felt a lil bit exposed and cold was an understatement
the second he saw you, Taeyong had a glint in his eye and he couldn't stop staring at you
naturally, that made you blush and get really self conscious
?? wot
“Hello, I am your photographer for the day. This shoot is supposed to be sort of a couple, romantic fashion shoot, so I hope you two know each other very well and are comfortable with being close to one another. Do you two have any issues with that?”  
you both looked at each other, 
and then lee Taeyong, 
while staring dead in your eyes, 
said
“No, sounds perfect!” 
bitch
what the fuck was that supposed to mean ?! 
“sounds perfect” uhhhhhhhhhhh lemme get a mcfuckin explanation 
he gave you a small smile before you managed to get out, “No issues here.” 
that only made him smile more
njsdncvcaehcfabcafcb bitch!! you were whipped for him already
“Great! Let’s get started, then. Y/N, I will have you stand over here, and...” 
let’s just say that the photographer had you two start with basic stuff, like you two standing next to one another with Taeyong putting his hand on your shoulder and things like that
it quickly escalated though, and he had you doing things like laying your legs across his lap and running your hands through his hair
“Sorry if this is a little too intimate for you,” you whispered into his ear during another shot, where you were draped over his sitting form and your hand caressed his cheek
“Don’t apologize, it’s not. If anything, I’m a little flustered to have someone as pretty as you staring at me the way you are, Y/N, even if it is just for the camera,” he told you, shifting so that you were turned with your back to the camera and chest flush to his, your hands delicately placed on his upper arms, his hand resting on your lower back and you staring up at him
faintly you could hear the photographer say,  “THIS IS IT, THIS IS THE ONE!”
“Trust me, it isn’t just for the camera,” you mumbled, not able to filter yourself due to sleep deprivation
you thought he didn’t hear you, but then a smirk formed on his face and you knew you #fucked up
the end of the shoot was arriving, and there were a few more pictures the photographer had in mind, but he wanted to let you guys do your own thing and see where it ended up
“You guys can do what you want for these next few pictures, just do what feels naturally and I’ll angle it well.” very encouraging, right
making use of the pieces of furniture on the set, you decided to lay on the bright red couch and Taeyong looked down at you from behind it
“I couldn’t hear what you said earlier, can you say it again please?” he asked, trying to fish a confession out of you
Oh, Mr. Lee Taeyong, it won’t be that easy. 
“Hmmm, what do you mean?” you asked, purposefully trying to be as close to him as you could, so you sat on your hips to the side more and pulled him down so your hand rested on his cheek and your face was //right there, you could feel his breath on your lips//
(the photographer would have fainted there if he could get away with technical time theft while on the job)
taeyong’s breath hitched and a blush crept onto his cheeks and you knew you got him
ladies and gentlemen.... we got ‘im
even still, he tried to get it out of you
“Well, I thought I heard you say something under your breath before the photographer spoke to us,” he coyly explained, sitting down and pulling you onto his lap
at that point it became a game of who could get the other to blush more
and lemme just say, mama didn’t raise no lil bitch, so you were NOT about to lose
grabbing both sides of his face in your small hands, you leaned in and whispered, “I hope it’s okay that I’m going to kiss you now.” 
his eyes went wide, and then he said, “MORE than okay.” 
and the next thing you know, your lips were planted on his and the photographer was sobbing genuine tears
“THIS IS PEAK PROFESSIONALISM, OH MY GOD, IT’S BEEN YEARS SINCE I’VE WORKED WITH MODELS AS GOOD AS YOU TWO, OH MY, THIS IS THE SHOT THAT WILL MAKE IT BIG, I’M-” 
of course his enthusiasm made you start giggling, and you could feel Taeyong smiling into the kiss
when you two broke apart you leaned your forehead on his and stared into his eyes
“I think we both know what I said earlier,” you told him, throwing your arms around his neck
“Good, because I hope we are both on the same page,” he said, smirking slightly
“And that is?” 
and all he did in response was kiss you again, but this time not smiling from the photographer’ s goofy remarks
the photographer gave the okay after he got that shot and told you two that he wish he’d gotten to work with you sooner
the ironic thing here is that you and Taeyong wished the same thing
you headed back to the dressing rooms, hand in hand, getting stares from the staff but not caring much
or at all, really
#bad bitch club: RISE
“I hope you know that as soon as those pictures get released, people will assume we are dating, right?” you said, wiping the makeup off and combing through your hair
you quickly ducked into changing room, throwing on the clothes you were wearing when you arrived
you heard him chuckle from the other little makeshift room
you exited your changing room and found him waiting for you
“Why let them assume when we could tell them the truth ourselves?” 
and somehow, despite the crazy hectic schedules you both had, 
and all the crazy ups and downs of being in the public spotlight,
a few months later, when the magazine finally hit the shelves and the cover image was you two kissing each other and looking like the happiest couple in the world,
when you got invited to an interview to discuss the inspiration for the images and the experience of working with each other, 
you two walked in hand in hand, smiling brightly and looking like your average couple that was in love
and when asked if you two were dating, 
you replied, “Yes, and it has been the best few months of my life so far.”

You’re one of the only Hetalia art blogs still active that I absolutely love! Do you know any more of them?
Actually!!! I spent the past week sitting on this question, but im finally able to compile (most of) i have a bad memory and theres just so many, you see) the hetalia artists ive admired. ill write up a little blurb on each so you can know what to expect
warning, this is super long
I’m going to list my fav Prussia focused artists first:
@theknoflook is SO SO SO good at capturing the worn/rough-round-the-edges Prussia and they’re 100% the BEST at drawing the aged feel of him. They draw a lot of characters with human imperfections, it’s just such a RAW emotion I feel from each drawing.
@maplevogel I’ve admired since I was like,,, 13. You have no idea how much I want to be able to draw like them. Their watercolour illustrations are KICKASS!! They have such a sense of mystical-ness to each piece, everything is so unreal in what they draw it gives me such a sense of calm-ness. Constantly they’re using watercolour to it’s full extent, im EXTREMELY floored and always have been.
@mieudiary is another person ive admired since i was a absolute baby. Their art teeters on anime-realism and their use of lighting, shading and blending is SOOOO GOOD. They’re able to make their characters so real yet overly gorgeous lol. They’ve got the best damn detail in form/muscles (flesh) ive ever seen.
@kisamesfacioplegia is LITERALLY DRAWING RENAISSANCE PAINTINGS OKAY. Their art is always refined and carries the same aura as those huge paintings you find in museums, with extremely good storytelling and illustrations. Best historical prussia and germany on this site imo.
@carnagekiid (i dont know if they do aph anymore but their recent work is JUST AS GOOD) has the cutest modern interpretation of gil and is my fav. i personally am not a fan of like,,, the “ideal” canon prussia, and the way they draw emotion/use of colours (for all their work) with prussia has that like,,, UMMF of character, yknow what i mean??? they focus on ruspru i think but idk lol
Okay those are just the best prussia’s ive seen, heres some more general hetalia artists that focus on other characters
@payadraws is quite possibly my FAVOURITE HETALIA ARTIST???? IF NOT AT LEAST IN THE TOP 3 BC THEIR STUFF IS SO GOOD AND STYLIZED PERFECTLY. their linework is stunning, and colouring has that tone over all of it that harmonizes the whole piece. The way their utilize their style in everything is PERFECt, idk how to use words for it, just take a look. Their austria/switzerland is deadass on-the-money.

@paperdrawsshit is SO GOOD at using that like,,,, the form/silhouette of characters. like,, the shapes they use, the flow of each pose, the hands, ALL OF IT SCREAMS PERFECTION. Each drawing has such flow and structure at the same time, and each character has such a pretty fashion sense. Excellent use of lighting and i strive to be as good as them in drawing people
@jackce THIS ARTIST HAS LIKE.,, SUCH A CLEAN CUT ART STYLE ITS GORGEOUS. Each drawing has the smoothest lines and the characters have distinct features. Their prussia, italy and germany styles stand out so much because of the way they draw the noses, jaw, features etc. Like they look like screenshots out of a professional 2d animated feature. Seriously.
@starstray (not sure if they draw hetalia anymore but i need to tell yall about them anyway) has such gorgeous like,,, composition. like if you dug through a collection of paintings from the renaissance you’ll find a few of theirs scattered in their.

The way they manage to make sketches look incredibly refined and capture the movement in each drawing???? LIKE IVE ADMIRED THEIR ART FOR SUCH A LONG TIME ITS BEEN 300 YEARS
@miss-ostrich-art BRUH how does one manage to draw ???? like them??? the way their characters’ forms and muscles can be seen but like not overly detailed??? they have the PERFECT amount of detail in each drawing, and the expressions!! the way they draw noses and facial structure and *italian hand gesture* PERFECT.
@maryluis THEIR EXPRESSIONS ARE SUPER DYNAMIC!!! AND THE POSES HAVE SUCH FLOW. Also did i mention the amount of detail they put into minor things?? like WOW.

@cioccolatodorima YOOOOOOO THIS IS LIKE THE FIRST ARTIST I SAW WHEN GETTING INTO THE FANDOM. ONE OF THEM AT LEAST. Their non-hetalia work is actually my fav and i want to do just what they do when im older! I love their illustrations, and their way of drawing characters/character design (ginjinka of mr.kitkat are my favs). The way their lighting looks, is SO pretty and the linework is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. their art blog (not just hetalia) is @rainbow-taishi
@ask-badlydrawnseborga lemme tell yall about a thing. i love how funny their art is, and like,,,,, i know its “badly drawn seborga” but the way the hair flows and the proportions,, everything about it is SO nffhhklahjdj polished.

Seriously, I want to be able to draw as well as them, its incredible how the amount of work and effort is shown in each drawing.
@buruzaitama !! The way they draw characters has like,,, this level of realism and the way they do their lighting just pushes that to the next level. I don’t know how people can pull off drawing realism yet still make it so unique that i can instantly tell that a piece is drawn by them, but this artist IS SO GOOD AT THAT. LIKE WOW
@inkodoodles Okay their “1 hour drawing challenges”? IM FLOORED ANYONE CAN DRAW THAT IN ONE HOUR. The have such detail and flow and movement in each drawing! And the lighting they have is so soft and calming, it lends itself to each piece REALLY WELL. Whatever emotion each drawing is supposed to give is conveyed to a tee
@heyheyartman BRO the style??? is so fucking UNIQUE AND ICONIC?? And the way they manage to pace comics and storytell is sO GOOD. Like,,, the way they can use shapes for each of their characters is so refined and stylized i love it. Their use of colour seriously KICKS ASS and im floored every time i see their work.
@merasgar their art is so detailed!! and the backgrounds/environments are so soft and gorgeous to look at! I have like,,,, no idea how you can pull off such beautiful hair and eyes in each drawing!! They draw a lot of rochu and like,, the features look so PERFECT for the characters ghhghghg
@yosb ALRIGHT LISTEN UP THIS ARTIST SERIOUSLY HAS ONE OF MY FAV STYLES. It’s so refined and you can see the distinct features of each character. The style isnt realism but the characters FEEL REAL. They have such a perfect way of paying attention to details and putting in proportions/facial features to each character im so amazed and love their work so much
and of course i want to include @paachubelle though theyre working on their own project ( @the-otwya-project ) now, they’re one of my like,,,, friends that i made on this blog through hetalia ask blogs and i figured id like to include them on this list. Idk how people can draw in pencil with such detail and everything but they do it EXPERTLY. The line work is always so clean and the shading is always so well done!!
of course, im very clumsy and forgetful so i know i forgot some names but i cant remember things!! Either way, these are some of my all time favourite iconic hetalia (and non-hetalia) artists!! I want to be able to draw as well as them one day!

ceo!yoongi - the wedding
Tumblr media
→ pairing: min yoongi x reader
→ genre: ceo!au, the fluffiest fluff, humour, you look like a pRINCESS, a lil bit of n s f w, jungkook is a brat no surprise there
→ wordcount: 7.7k
→ notes: it’s hERE the big day!!!!!! i’m so happy that you guys like ceo!yoongi you blew my expectations for the response to this fic out of the water!!!! i had,,, such a good time writing this i fckin love weddings as you can tell i got a little carried away because this ‘“”””drabble”””’’ is nearly 8000 words long?? whoops ALSO i used google translate for the korean part so,,,,,,, if it’s not an accurate translation please don’t come for me i am SORRY 
if u wanna ask yoongs or y/n anything u know what to do ;-)
you’re getting married to min yoongi today. holy shit. 
(gif isn’t mine!) 
(((and the read more function iS there but most of the time it doesn’t work on mobile :// i am sorry don’t attack me by sending passive-aggressive anon messages)))
you’ve never felt more like a princess than in this moment
“not half bad” you mutter to yourself, turning a little and checking yourself out in the mirror
your gown is beaUtiful you got it custom made and everything and it even came with a VEIL
“oh my god,,,, i’m going to cry” jimin appears behind you in the mirror and he presses a hand to his chest “you don’t even look like yourself whERE are your mismatched socks”
“i couldn’t find a pair of socks to go with the heels” you joke and turn your head a little but the makeup artists turns your head back so she can dab a little more lipstick on your lips
yoongi hired like a miLLion stylists because he didn’t trust jimin to do your makeup and hair (and tbh jimin doesn’t trust himself to do your makeup and hair either lol)
a minute goes by before she decides you’re good to go but she fixes your veil a little and then dusts some glittery powered on your exposed chest and your shoulders
wow
you really are a disney princess now
“could you guys give us a second?” you give the many stylists a polite smile and they all agree and eventually file out of the room
you lift the dress up a little so you can step off the mini podium and jimin immediately rushes over to grab onto your shoulders
“…you’RE GETTING MARRIED TODAY”
“…I’M GETTING MARRIED TODAY”
“i can’t believe you’re getting married before me”
“i know!!! crazy stuff” you smile
“i’m so happy for you” jimin sniffles and you coo before leaning in to give him a hug but he stops you before you can hug him and you pull away clearly hurt
“you’re going to get glitter all over my suit and i dO not want that” but he leans in to kiss your cheek very very gently
“i miss yoongi” you pout and turn to look at yourself in the mirror (wat u look rly good okay)
you haven’t seen yoongi in like 24 hours because both of you had your bachelorette/bachelor parties and then it’s the whole ‘the bride and groom can’t see each other before the wedding’ thing so you and yoongi had your own hotel rooms :-(
of course jimin shared a room with you so it wasn’t that bad
“yoongi looks really good in his suit” jimin grins and stands next to you in the mirror “just to let you know”
“i-“ suddenly your phone vibrates on the table and you click-clack over in your heels to grab it
your face immediately lights up in a smile when you see who’s calling
“hey boss” you pick up the call and you hear yoongi’s raspy laugh on the other end
“hi, baby.”
“i miss u”
“i miss you too. i can’t wait to see you.”
you glance over your shoulder and jimin’s preoccupied with fixing the rose in his suit pocket
“i’m wearing the thigh garters and the lacy white panties you bought for me under my dress” you lower your voice a little so jimin can’t hear you
“oh yeah? quit trying to lure me out of my room - you’re the one who said we weren’t allowed to see each other” yoongi teases
you hear some commotion from yoongi’s end and you check the time on the clock
yep
it’s time
“i think that’s my cue. i’ll see you soon. i love you.”
“love you more” you whisper and then yoongi hangs up and you put your phone on the table
“i can’t believe you’re making me walk down the aisle with jungkook” jimin grumbles and fixes a strand of his hair
“we didn’t have enough bridesmaids!!” you giggle and jimin rolls his eyes before giving you a quick hug and another kiss on the cheek
“i’ll see you out there?” he raises his fist and you fist bump him gently and nod
once jimin leaves a second later your parents enter the room and your mom coos at how gorgeous her daughter looks on this wonderful day
“look at you!” she gasps and wraps you up in a hug and you laugh lightly
“never thought i’d see the day where you actually put in effort with how you look” your dad jokes and your mom smacks his arm in warning “you ready, champ?”
“as ready as i’ll ever be” you grab your bouquet off the chair and link arms with your mom
it’s only once you’re standing in front of the closed double doors that you realise you are noT as ready as you’ll ever be
your heart is going like a million miles per hour
and you didn’t think it would happen to you
but you have cold feet
what if you’re too young to get married?
maybe you and yoongi are diving into this relationship too quickly
like you’ve only been dating a couple months and that iS a pretty short time to date and then suddenly decide to get married
what if you turn into those couples who get married young and then eventually the spark disappears from the marriage and you guys turn into a bitter old couple stuck with each other forever
oh god
if you and yoongi divorce you’ll have to find another job and you don’t wANT to find another job
there was an opening at the damn sandwich station
you don’t want to spend the rest of your life making sandwiches with too much mayo and too little tuRKEY
you don’t want to be a LISA
lol shady
oH GOD
you are 110% not prepared when the wooden doors open slowly  
but the first thing you see is yoongi waiting for you at the end of the aisle
and oH
he looks so handsome in his crisp tux
and he has a red rose in his suit pocket
his hair is styled perfectly and he’s positively glowing
the venue itself is gorgeous too
fairy lights twinkling everywhere the rose gold and white go reaLLy well together 
the lights are the perfect level of dim and everything just looks so romantic and well put together 
everything is perfect
and this is the part where you’re supposed to start walking
okay
thIS is the part where you’re supposed to start walking
okay nOW
uh-oh
your feet feel like they’ve been glued to the ground and everyone’s just… staring at you
“you okay, honey?” your mom nudges your side gently and you’re snapped out of your thoughts
your mouth is all dry and you can’t open your mouth to say anything but you nod quickly
your heart is like exploding in your chest
of course your mother knows best and she can tell you’re like suPer nervous
“you know, i was pretty nervous before my wedding too.”
you immediately turn to look at her and you’re like …go on
“i thought i was too young to be getting married. thought i was ruining my life. i had so many things i wanted to do, so many things i wanted to see, and i thought getting married was going to hold me back. but… i loved your father so, so much. all those things that i wanted to do and all the things i wanted to see? i ended up doing those things with him right by my side. it’s your wedding - of course you’re nervous. but tell me - you see that man at the end of the aisle?”
you turn to look at yoongi and he’s staring at you with worry in his eyes because you stILL haven’t started walking and the crowd is getting a little antsy
“do you love him?”
“of course i love yoongi” you breathe out
you love yoongi with your entire heart
you love how sweet and caring he is like when you stay late with him and end up falling asleep at your desk and you always wake up with yoongi’s suit jacket around you to keep you warm
sometimes he carries you to the car and he’s sO gentle with you to make sure he doesn’t wake you up
you love how thoughtful he is like when he knows you’re having a bad day and surprises you with cookies or a pint of ice cream even though that’s the last thing he wants you to eat
you love how considerate he is like when you tell him an awful joke and he laughs anyway even though you’re like the least funny person in the entire world
and hello?? he’s so snuggly in the morning you loVe that
you love min yoongi.
“and you want to marry him?”
“more than anything else in the entire world”
“then what’s the problem?”
“...i don’t wanna trip down the aisle” you squeak out and your dad stifles a laugh before patting your arm gently
“c’mon, y/n. can’t keep your fiancé waiting.”
there seems to be this collective sense of relief in the crowd when you start walking and jimin reaches up to dab the bead of sweat lining his forehead before shooting yoongi a thumbs up
both you and yoongi are just staring at each other as you make your way down the aisle and yoongi can’t help but think about how fuckign lucky he is to be marrying you
you give your parents a hug and a kiss before they’re handing you over to yoongi
you wobble a little on your heels but yoongi grabs your hand before you can topple over thAnk god
yoongi lifts the veil up over your head and his heart flutters when he sees you smiling at him with rosy cheeks
“hi” you whisper quietly and yoongi smiles in response before brushing some of your hair back
the crowd takes a second to settle in and yoongi takes advantage of the rustling
“hi. you okay?”
you nod quickly and squeeze his hand “i love you”
his cheeks immediately warm and a smile tugs at the corner of his lips “love you more”
the two of you turn to face the priest
“dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to celebrate the marriage of min yoongi and y/n y/l/n…”
the priest goes on and on and the entire time you and yoongs are just staring at each other and giving each other knowing looks like ‘good god, this is boring’
yoongi pinches your hand hard when it looks like you’re about to let out a yawn and you quickly suppress it when he gives you a warning look
finally it’s time to exchange vows and noW you know what you forgot this morning
your cue cards
you were never really good at improvisation so this… is going to be interesting
luckily the priest invites yoongi to go first so that gives you some time to come up with soMEthing  
“y/n. when we first met, i have to be honest - i did not like you. like at all.”
wow
it doesn’t get much better than that lol
“whA-“
“you insulted me in the elevator, you spilt coffee all over me, you kept forgetting to remind me when my meetings were scheduled, you nEver threw away your cookie wrappers-“
“okAy i think we get it” you scowl and everyone in the audience can’t help but laugh
how the hell are you getting roasted even at your own damn weDDing
yoongi smiles and squeezes your hand
“but even after all of this, somehow, someway, i fell in love with you.  i fell in love with the way you stumbled into my office every morning with a half-ass made cup of coffee, the way you were willing to stay late with me even though i know you would much rather go home and watch TV, the way your face lights up whenever i bought cookies for you... i knew you were the one for me the night that we kissed, and i wouldn’t want to have anyone else in the world help me tie my ties. y/n y/l/n, i loved you then, i love you now, and i’ll love you forever.”
aW that’s so cUTE you didn’t know yoongi had it in himself to say something that cheesy without puking
“i actually left my cue cards in the office. so. there’s that.” you clear your throat and give yoongi an apologetic look “i…” for a second you blank because you actually forgot what you had planned to say
bits and pieces are coming back to you but daNg it you spent like a week’s worth of lunch breaks writing them out
“yoongi. i also wasn’t a huge fan of you when we first met. no matter what i did, you’d always give me a look of disappointment and scold me for being a bad secretary. all i know is…”
fuck it
time to improvise
you clear your throat and stand up a little straighter
“all i know is that you’re the one i want to spend the rest of my life with. your beauty, heart, and mind inspire me to be the best person i can be. i feel truly blessed that out of all the people in the world - you chose me. you chose me, and i get to share my life with you, and you’ve chosen to share yours with me. you make me happier than i ever could imagine and more loved than i ever thought possible.” you clear your throat because you feel a lil lump growing in there
you’re not usually this emotional but
there’s just something about weddings
“…min yoongi, you are my person. you are my love and my life - today, and always.”
everyone bursts into applause when you finish and you can’t help but feel a sense of pride because everyone’s tearing up and also yOONgi’s eyes are gLASSY
and yoongi nEVer cries
and now it’s time to make it ~official~
“Min Yoongi. Do you take Y/N Y/L/N as your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?”
yoongi’s never been so sure of anything in his entire life
“I do.” he slips a ring onto your trembling hand and you try your best to calm your nerves but you’re just sO happy
“Y/N Y/L/N. Do you take Min Yoongi as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or-“
“yES i dO” you reply a little too enthusiastically and the crowd bursts into a murmur of giggles
the priest smiles before gesturing for you to slip the ring onto yoongi’s finger
and…
“i now pronounce you man and wife. you may now kiss the bride.” yoongi immediately swoops down and plants his lips on yours and you instinctively wrap your arms around his neck when he places his hands on your hips to pull you closer
everyone’s cheering around you but all you can focus on is yoongi
it feels like you guys are the only ones in the room
“aLright you two save it for the honeymoon” jimin smacks you with your bouquet and you blush before pulling away but you still cling to yoongi
“i love you” you beam and yoongi leans down to give you another kiss
“love you more”
you and yoongi are all over each other at the reception
not like thAT but like in a more romantic lovey dove ooey gooey way
“we’re married” you giggle and nuzzle against yoongi’s neck and he reaches over to yank your chair closer to him
“we’re married” he repeats and holds your hand out so he can look at the twinkling ring on your finger
you pull away and look at him
“i made you cry”
“you did no such thing”
“i maDE you tear up” you tease and jab at his chest and yoongi swats your hand away
“there was dust in my eyes”
“there was nO dust anywh-“
clink clink clink
jimin’s suddenly standing up from his seat next to you and he’s clinking the side of his flute of champagne
“everyone! i’d like to make a toast.”
you turn your attention to jimin and woW your best friend looks especially handsome tonight!!!!
this lighting makes his skin look greAT
“first of all - congratulations to the newlyweds.” everyone applauds you and yoongi and the two of you give nods and smiles of acknowledgements “y/n and i have been friends for as long as i can remember. i’ve always been the one y/n goes to in times of need, i’ve always been her pizza/movie night buddy… but everything’s different now. boss, please take care of my girl for me, okay?”
“of course i will.” yoongi nods and you push your bottom lip out in a pout when you see jimin’s eyes glimmering
omg
your eyes are getting watery too
“okay. that’s all i have to say.” jimin’s voice wavers and then he sets down the microphone and you immediately get up and coo and wrap your best friend up in a big fat hUG
“mY babY!!!!!” you sniffle and press a kiss to jimin’s cheek and basically cling to him and you and jimin are off in your own little world and yoongi’s like ahEm i am your husband pls pay attention to me
“i wanna make a toast too!!!!” jungkook stands up and nearly knocks his chair over
clink clink CLONK
he clinks the side of his flute and it immediately shatters into a trillion pieces
“whoops” he blinks down at the shards of glass and then sets his flute down and picks up the microphone
“i’d just like to let everyone know that y/n herself said that if yoongi wasn’t in the picture she would’ve definitely ended up with me. yoongi - i can still steal your girl, so don’t piss me off”
“excuse me?” yoongi’s glare immediately makes the smile drop from jungkook’s face
in that moment he knew he fucked up
“nothingi’msorrysir”
so yeah everyone’s having a pretty good time
you break away from all the socialising to get yourself a drink
and the next thing you know you’re hearing jungkook over the loudspeakers and you’re like oh nO what is this punk what up to
“everyone! please help me welcome mr and mrs min for their first official dance as a married couple!”
o god
o gOD you forgot the first dance was a thing
obviously you like the part where you dance with yoongi but not the part where everyone like staRes at you dancing with yoongi
yoongi knows how much you hate crowds buT also he wants to show you off as his wife so u better get ur ass over here or he’ll literally drag you over
you end up getting nudged back to the dance floor by everyone and you whine quietly when yoongi takes your hand and pulls you in
“this is so embarrassing” you groan and yoongi laughs before wrapping his arms around your waist
“only you would be embarrassed at your own damn wedding”
you peek over yoongi’s shoulders and see literally evERyone staring at you and your cheeks flush instantly
“hey, look at me. it’s just you and me, hm?” yoongi presses his forehead against yours and you crinkle your nose in responsethe two of you dance for a little while longer and you want to stay in the moment forever because yoongi’s whispering sweet nothings in your ear and you are just so so SO in love with him
he has his arms wrapped tightly around your waist and your arms are dangling loosely around your waist
occasionally he’ll swoop down to give you a small kiss but he keeps it PG because you do have an audience after all and he’s not about to make out with you in front of ur parents lol
finaLLy the slow song switches back to a pop song and everyone floods the dance floor once again and you’re like phEw but also kinda bummed out at the same time because you wanted to slow dance with ur mans for a little while longer you felt like you were at prom lol
cutting the cake had to be the most fun part because you got to smash it into yoongi’s face
“y/n, i swear to god, this suit was sO expensive if you get onE dollop of cream-“ yoongi doesn’t get a chance to finish his sentence because you’re suddenly pushing the slice of cake right into his face and everyone bursts into laughter at the sight
yoongi staggers back and is like :0000000!!!!!!!!!! and he wipes the chunks of cake off his face and off his precious suit before glaring at you and you’re like uh-oh
and then you realise he’s not actually mad because he’s lunging for you grabbing your face and pulling you in for a FAT kiss
you squeal because cake is getting all over your face but you kiss yoongi back anyway and giggle against his lips
and of course yoongi gets his revenge because he digs his gruBBy hand into the cake and you’re like N O   W A IT
anyways you end up getting cake all over your chest and yoongi gets it all over his suit but you both clean up to the best of your abilities
the party finALLY gets started and all you have to say is that your friends and family get wild sOoo quickly
everyone here has obviously taken advantage of the endless cocktails
people are jamming out on the dance floor
some people are enjoying drinks by the bar
jimin dragged yoongi off somewhere so you’ve kind of just been hopping from table to table thanking people for coming
“joon you look so handsome tonight!!!! thank u for coming!!” you bend down and wrap an arm around him to give him a hug from behind before pinching his cheek and sitting down in the empty seat next to him
“of course i had to come to my favourite coffee-thief’s wedding” he teases and takes a sip of his champagne “also this champagne is like reALLy good”
“right??? it’s the really bougie stuff i almost picked the one with real gold flakes in it but i resisted because i don’t want to completely destroy yoongi’s wallet”
the two of you end up chatting for a little while longer before suddenly jimin appears out of nowhere and drags you out of your chair
“wOah where are you taking me???” before you know it you’re being plopped down on a chair in the middle of the rOOm and there’s a crowd around you
and when you turn to face the front you see your husband walking over to you
you immEdiately feel warmth ziP down to your nether regions
he’s taken off his suit jacket and his tie and he’s unbuttoned a couple buttons on his shirt anD he has his sleeves rolled up and holy shit did it suddenly just get warm in here or what
you can tell he’s a little tipsy because he has a lazy smirk on his face and his eyes are kind of cloudy
“hi baby” yoongi cups your jaw before bending down and pressing his lips against yours
he tastes faintly of beer and mint
“how much did jimin give you to drink?” you giggle and push at his chest gently then watch as he drops to his knees in front of you
and the way he looks up at you with dark eyes makes your insides melt
it takes a second for you to realise what’s actually happening
the thigh garter
the crowd goes wild when yoongi’s head suddenly disappears under your dress and you feel his hands grip at your knees before pushing them apart so he can wiggle himself in between them
“yOongi!” you gasp quietly when you feel him nip at your inner thigh
he’s definitely noT supposed to go this far up
your face is on fire at this point but yoongi’s having the time of his life and everyone else seems to be into it
you feel him press a trail of warm kisses from the inside of your knee all the way to your inner thigh
and then he’s taking your garter in between his teeth and slowly pulling it down your leg
a bunch of cheers and whoops echo around the room when yoongi crawls out from under your dress with the lacy garter in his mouth
he smirks up at you and your cheeks heat up and you quickly shuT your legs
he ruffles his hair quickly to fix it before getting up off his knees and immediately tossing the garter into the eager crowd of mEN
you’re not surprised that jimin is the one who catches it (he shoved like three other guys out of the way) and you’re like alREADY planning his bachelor party for him in your head
yoongi’s like the last person you think of when you think of ’dance floor’ so when he suddenly drags you towards it while you’re in the middle of getting another glass of champagne you’re like genuinely shook
jungkook and jimin and all ya friends are all bopping on the dance floor and you feel yoongi grab your wrist before he’s twirling you around in a circle
you stumble into his chest and giggle before wrapping your arms around his neck loosely
“what has gotten into you!!!!” you’re not complaining at all you’re a huGE fan of this loosey-goosey yoongi
“i’m just really happy that’s all” he murmurs and leans down a little to give you a kiss
“yeah? you’re just really happy?” you giggle when yoongi abandons your lips and instead decides to begin planting kisses down your neck before biting down playfully on your shoulder
“i think we should go and consummate our marriage as soon as possible” yoongi purrs into your ear as he sways the two of you back and forth “our suite is ready for us”
the whole thigh garter thing put him in a certain mood
“we can’t just leave our own party” as muCh as you want to leave it would just be rude!!
“it’s not like anyone’s going to notice with jungkook dancing on the bar like a madman” you look over and sure enough there’s jungkook jumping up and down on the bar while the poor bartender’s just trying to do his job
of course
because he’s min frickin yoongi
a Professional Businessman Who Is Good At Convincing People To Do Things For Him
he convinces you to leave your own damn party
the two of you manage to sneak out but not before jimin rushes over with yoongi’s suit jacket and tie and your phone and tells the two of you to have fun wink wonk
yoongi slips into his suit jacket and leaves his tie hanging around his neck and then he’s grabbing your hand and the two of you are slipping out the back door
and now it’s just the sound of your heels and yoongi’s dress shoes clicking against the marble floor while the two of you practically sprint down the hallway in a fit of giggles
“can’t you move any faster?? you’re wasting my time here woman” yoongi groans playfully and you’re like this dress is like fiVe pounds and these heels are like six inches what do you expect me to dO
“take your heels off then”
“u know what that is a very good idea yoongs” you bend down and step out of your heels before picking them up
and the next thing you know you’re being swept off your feet and thrown over yoongi’s shoulder like a sack of damn potatoes
“jEsUs-“ you shriek in surprise and yoongi smacks your bum over your dress as he walks the two of you into the elevator “u know there are more romantic versions of doing this”
you’re getting red from all the blood rushing to your head and yoongi chuckles before bending over to let you get back onto your feet
“alright, fine. i’ll try to be more romantic just for you.” yoongi grabs your arm and wraps it around his neck before he’s lifting you up and carrying you bridal style just like how u wanted
you coo and lean in to kiss his cheek before you’re holding your left hand out and admiring the glimmering wedding ring on your finger
“i’m married” you beam and watch the ring reflect under the light
“wow, me too. what a coincidence!” yoongi replies sarcastically and you pinch his cheek before taking the room key out of his breast pocket
yoongi lets you back down onto your feet after the elevator door opens and he’s not surprised that the first thing you do is basically scream rACE U TO THE ROOM and you zip down the hall
yoongi laughs when he sees you stumble a little and then chases after you
unsurprisingly he catches up to you right as you reach the doors
it’s hard to unlock the door to the suite with yoongi nipping at your shoulder and very subtly grinding into your bum and you giggle and swat his wandering hands away before finally pushing the door open and wOW
how did they fit a damn chandelier in here??
your heels fall to the floor with a clatter and you walk in even further and there’s a golden cart sitting by the couch with chocolate covered strawberries and champagne with goLD flakes in them and um??? ARE THOSE
ARE THOSE YOUR VENDING MACHINE COOKIES
you gasp and nearly trip over your dress as you stumble over to the cart and yoongi’s like i should’ve hID the food cart damnit because it’s pretty obvious you’re not in the fuck me mood you’re in the fuck me uP WITH THIS FOOD mood
you plop down on the couch and it bounces underneath your weight and yoongi can’t help but laugh because you’re like drowning in your dress you kinda look like a cupcake
he sits down next to you and pulls the food cart towards him
“what a perfect way to end the night” you sigh happily and yoongi turns and is like what do u mean end the night pls tell me we’re not ending our night like thIS
you reach over to nab a cookie while yoongi pops the cork off the champagne
some of it flows out from the top and yoongi shakes it off his hand before pouring some into the two flutes
he hands you a glass and you take a sip and your eyes roll to the back of your head because that is sO good
you watch yoongi underneath the dim light of the chandelier and watch as his adam’s apple bobs after he takes a sip
fuck
he looks good
you snap yourself out of it and your attention turns to the food
“gimme a strawberry” you poke yoongi’s side before shuffling a little closer to your husband
yoongi rolls his eyes playfully and sets his flute down before bending forward a little and choosing the biggest strawberry for you
“here you go, you big baby” you giggle and as yoongi raises the strawberry to your mouth  
you take a bite of it and he pops the other half into his mouth
he raises his hand and his fingertips are stained with melted chocolate and he turns to look for a napkin because he is not about to stain his suit with chocolate
and what he’s definitely nOt expecting is for you to take his hand and bring it to your mouth
o,,,,,oh m,.,my
you wrap your lips around yoongi’s pointer finger and pull away with a pop
and then you’re taking his thumb into your mouth and sucking gently before you pull away and wipe the corner of your mouth and yoongi swallows thickly
“there you go, all clean” you murmur shyly and that,,,, was.,.,. the hottest thing he thinks he’s ever seen in his entire life “gimme another one”
yoongi raises another one to your mouth and when you go to bite it he pulls it away and smirks
you see the playful glint in his eyes and you go for the bite again and he pulls it away aGain
“yoongi!!!” you whine and pout and yoongi grins at you with his gummy smile and cocks his head
“what? come and get it” yoongi holds the berry in between his teeth and points to it and you immediately scramble over to take a bite
before you get the chance to do that yoongi spits the berry out quickly so you end up kissing him instead
and you could technically pull away and grab a berry from the plate yourself but like
making out with yoongi is always nice
“that was sneaky” you mutter into the kiss and yoongi hums in response
his hands are starting to wander
you feel one hand disappear under your dress and the other moves to your back to tug at the zipper of the dress
you jump when you feel yoongi’s hand give your ass a good squeeze and dang now your dress is fully unzipped and is starting to slide off your shoulders
“waiT wait” you pant and push yourself away from yoongi
“what’s the matter?”
“i wanna go to the bedroom i’m not letting u fuck me on a couch on our first night as a married couple r u kidding me”
touché
yoongi groans impatiently and flops onto his back on the plush bed because once you get the bedroom ur like okay give me a minute i need to pee
what!!! he’s a man with simPLE neeDS
he just wants to make love to his wife okay!!!!!!!!
yoongi doesn’t know how he forgot this detail but when you emerge from the bathroom dressed in a very vERy sexy pair of lacy bra and panties that he bought for you to wear especially for tonight he’s suddenly like lol the wait was woRth it omg
“like it?”
it came with this short silky robe that’s slipping off one of your shoulders as you approach him
yoongi swears his mouth is watering
“like it? i fucking love it.”
holy fuck
you are
so
sO
hot
you giggle because you’ve never seen yoongi so flustered before
you straddle him and his hands are like hovering over your hips
you’ve worn lingerie for him before but tonight you look extra ravishing
you look at him and his eyes flicker up to from your boobs (he can’t help it they’re like right in his face okay) to your face
his eyes are all dark and blown out and he places his hands on your hips before giving you a squeeze and taking his bottom lip in between his teeth
“fuck, look at you...” even after all this time you have to admit you still get blushy when yoongi sees you wearing lingerie just for him
now you’RE the one who’s flustered  
once he gets the flimsy robe off of you and tosses it to the ground you instinctively cover yourself up but yoongi grabs your wrists before you can do that and he holds them behind your back with one hand
“c’mere” yoongi rasps, hooking a finger under your chin and pulling you down towards him so he can kiss you
when he lets go of your wrists you immediately reach up and start undoing his buttons as he peels his suit jacket off and tosses it somewhere
“you gonna make love to me now?” you feel yoongi unclasp your bra before he’s helping you take his shirt off
“cheesy,” he teases “but yes, i’m going to make love to you now”
you never know why yoongi buys so much lingerie for you because they all end up on the floor like -5 seconds after you show it to him
“fuck, fuck, that’s it, you’re so good for me” yoongi pants and tilts his head up in pleasure because you feel sO tight and soft and warm around him “you’re a-all mine,” he grunts and thrusts into you again and it hits thAt spot inside of you making you cry out
“yours, i’m yours,” you moan and yoongi wants to fall apart when he hears you whimper an ‘i belong to you’ into his ear
he intertwines his fingers with yours before leaning down to plant his lips on yours
it’s reminiscent of the night he proposed to you because he feels your ring biting into the sides of his fingers when you squeeze his hand
the only difference is that now it’s a wedding ring instead of an engagement ring
yoongi wraps his fingers under your thigh and hitches it up against his waist
and he can’t help but look down at where the two of you are connected and he watches himself disappear into you as he thrusts
“shit, baby, don’t squeeze like that” yoongi warns you and you apologise quietly before you nudge your nose against his and kiss him
it only takes another minute or so before you start feeling warmth bubbling inside of you
“yOon- ’m not gonna- please let me c-cum i’m so close”  
yoongi bites down on your shoulder hard when he feels you dig your nails into his back
the bed starts to creak underneath the two of you but yoongi literally does not give a shit because all he can focus on is getting you to cum
his fingers are rubbing figure-8s on your clit while he’s hitting the sweet spot inside of you over and over and ovEr again and you think your soul actually leaves your body when you finally are pushed over the edge
it’s just the sound of your guys’ moans and groans and skin on skin echoing around the room
“i- ah! i love you i l-love youiloveyouiloveyou” you’re crying out yoongi’s name and he just wants to hear you cry out his name on loop for the rest of his liFE
“love you- fuck - love you m-more” yoongi lets out the most guttural groan when he cums and you feel him spurt inside of you as he rides out both of your orgasms
yoongi leans back on his heels and pulls out of you slowly and you immediately clench around nothing
“pretty little pussy n it’s all mine” yoongi mutters more to himself than to you and you immediately blush and clamp your legs shut because you never know what to say when yoongi says something like thAt
“nuh-uh, don’t get shy on me now, you minx” yoongi pries your legs apart with a grin and slots himself in between them again before leaning down to give you a sweet kiss
anyways you and yoongi end up having sex like three more times that night because you guys can’t get enough of each other and each time you finish your hormones are like lol nopE let’s do this AGAIN
thank god the walls here are thick otherwise you’d get many many noise complaints
you wake up early the next morning and find yourself snuggled up to yoongi
you unravel his arm from around your waist and sit up before stretching out your limbs
you pull the sheets up so that it’s covering your chest and you turn to look at your snoozing husband
he’s still glowing from last night and his lips look so soft and pouty
his eyelashes cast a shadow over his cheeks
he looks so beautiful in the soft glow of the morning light
you’ve never been more in love with him than at this moment
your eyes trail down his face to his bare chest until they reach his left hand and your heart warms at the sight of a silver ring wrapped around his ring finger
your heart flutters in your chest because you are no longer ms y/l/n you are now mrs min
wow
you guys are married
you’re his wife
he’s your husband
holy shit
he stirs underneath you and you wait for him to open his pretty brown eyes
“good morning, mr min” you have your chin propped up on your folded hands and yoongi wraps his arm tighter around you before yawning and stretching his limbs out
“good morning, mrs min” his voice is low and raspy from just waking up but he reaches down to poke your nose gently “…how long have you been watching me sleep, you creep?”  
ah
who says romance is dead?
next week you guys are flying to yoongi’s hometown daegu for a traditional korean wedding
which you’re reALLy excited for because you’ve always loved learning about different cultures and traditions
and hello??? the hanbok you’re going to be wearing is a deep purple colour and you love that
plus you’ve been brushing up on your korean lately and you’re preTTY much fluent at this point
(not rly)
you know what though you realised that you can pretty much get away with anything as long as you keep saying 네 [yes]
“shouldn’t you be working right now? i’m not your tutor” yoongi snorts when you stumble into his room with a bunch of korean textbooks clutched to your chest
“listen liSten i’m like basically fluent now okay just have a conversation with me i promise u i will be able to hold a basic conversation” you sit down across from him and yoongi leans forward on his folded arms on the desk
“okay, fine. 안녕하세요.” [hello.]
“안녕하세요!!!!!!!!!!!” [hello!!!!!!!!!!!] you say hello a little too enthusiastically and yoongi chuckles at how cute you are
you have a slight accent (obviously) and he thinks it’s just the cuTEST thing ever
“잘지냈어요?” [how are you?]
“좋은. 그리고 너?” [good. and yourself?]
yoongi figures maybE he can have a little fun with this
“좋은, 고맙습니다. 너 쿠키를 가져간거야?” [good, thank you. are you okay with me taking your cookies away?]
your eyes widen a little in surprise because whaT did he just say,,,.,,,
okay don’t panic
“…네”
“오! 좋은. 또한 점심 시간을 없애고 있습니다.” [oh! good. also, i’m taking your lunch break away.]
“…네…”
“너는 더 이상 지민을 볼 수 없다.” [you’re not allowed to see jimin anymore.]
um
okay you heard jimin in there somewhere
maybe he’s asking you if you like jimin???
“네!”
“나는 리사와 결혼하고 너와 이혼하고있어..” [i’m marrying lisa and divorcing you]
your brows immediately furrow because did he just mention,,, liSA
you don’t know what he said but if lisa’s in there it can’t be good
“아니!” [no!]
“i think you might need to brush up on your korean a little more” yoongi smirks and tilts his head before gesturing to the door “go back to work, jagi”
“why!!!!!!!!!!! my korean’s like noT half bad”
“really? because you just agreed for me to take your cookies away, take your lunch break away, and you’re no longer allowed to see jimin. at least you said no to me marrying lisa and divorcing you. i have a conference call, you gotta get outta here” yoongi gets up from his chair before placing a hand on the small of your back and nudging you towards the door
“wha- that’s SO unfair you know i only know the basics you can’t just do that!!!!!“ yoongi opens the door for you
“sure i can! you agreed to all of it. 키스 [kis-su], please.”
okay at least you know what that means
you cup yoongi’s jaw and pull him down to give him a lil kiss and he taps your bum
“waiT wait i have something else to say” you turn around before yoongi can push you out
“what is it noW”
he’s expecting you to swear at him or say something dumb but instead you wrap your arms around his waist and prop your chin up on his chest to look up at him
“사랑해~” [i love you]
and yoongi’s heart grows like a triLLION TIMES BIGGER YOU ARE SO CUTE
“너를 더 ���랑해.” [love you more]

okay, a couple of things I have to talk about from JWFK (mainly clawen really) because I can’t contain myself anymore. If you haven’t seen it and want to stay s*poiler free, don’t read below the cut. This is all sporadic and I’ll probably be more coherent after I see it again, but after my initial view....
ASDFGHJKLASFGHJKLASHJKLASDFGHJKL now that that’s out of the way... SO MUCH CLAWEN. SO MUCH CLAIRE BEING BADASS. SO MUCH OWEN GIVING CLAIRE HEART EYES.
Let’s start with the big kahuna... the kISS. So... I was initially pretty bummed that they weren’t starting out together in this film since back in 2015 I hoped they’d be engaged or married with a little baby Charlie Grady. However, I kept telling myself that they were going to get back together in this movie. They had to, right? Still, I was scared- that not only they wouldn’t get back together in this film (since Ellie and Allen didn’t end up together and I thought they were going that route) and that we wouldn’t get a kiss and we had to wait another 3 years for a maybe kiss.
Because fact of the matter is that this has always been a major dino franchise which is great because dinos !!!! but Clawen... so yeah I was filled with anxiety but I kept my hope, and it was building with each moment they had leading up to the kiss. 
quick note: I’m so thankful for the writers we have. For them taking the time to develop the characters and their arcs and clawen’s love story. It’s not just a humor romantic side bit for shit’s and giggles- it’s REAL. There was a lot of emphasis on the first without being overkill (for general audience def not me ever), but they carried on with it so well in this one. I only wish we got more info and details as to what happened between them, but I understood why they can’t fit in everything. 
Another thing- I kept thinking that if they were going to kiss in this movie and get back together, how awesome would it be if Claire was the one to initiate it this time? I mean tbh at the end of the day I didn’t care as long as their lips locked, but THEY FOLLOWED THROUGH WOW WHAT A PARALLEL TO THE FIRST??
When I saw the indoraptor’s claw dig into her leg I felt like crying out because poor Claire!! I hate seeing her in pain!! And then my immediate thought: Owen is going to LOSE HIS SHIT. I loved that instead of him running off right away- he stayed. He couldn’t leave her. How he kept telling her to look at him, the softness and care and concern in his voice... my GOD. And then when she looked at him aND PLANTED ONE ON HIM. I stopped breathing. The audience cheered but I- lost my damn mind.
The look on his face- he just- he loves her so much and the fierce in which she kissed him was just so familiar? It was an “I still love you, you idiot, now go save that little girl and then we’ll come back to each other because we’re inevitable.”
Their first JW kiss was hot and hurried in the middle of chaos again, but it was more of an adrenaline rushed “thanks for saving me god I love you that was so hot” type of kiss. This was just screaming with pure love? That kiss was filled with the deep relationship you know they built. A desperate plea to go and do what is necessary but also a “please don’t die and I’m not letting you go without letting you know I still love you”. I keep quoting what that kiss said just because it said so much?? I have to hand it to Bryce and Chris and their acting. Their genuine care and love and respect for each other as friends really bled into clawen and you could just feeeeel that history and connection between them so well. 
I could talk about that kiss forever but I’ll try to move on to some other things now:
*Real quick and honestly my mind is a mess because this was a jam packed movie with parallels that were so beautiful and I have so much to say, but my fave parallels have to be the kiss, the shot of Claire in the elevator asdfghjkl when I saw the heels and jeans I lost my shit... and her hair up in a pony tail in more casual clothes but still badass af... I lost it. Did I not say that already? Also, Bryce looked gorgeous in this movie. I mean, she always is but... jfc. 
-Another parallel that I loved was when Claire was told she had to speak to Owen and she got that look in her eyes... she didn’t roll them like last time, she looked... scared almost. To go back there. Then when she went to see him and she was fixing her hair (against like the first part) and was so shy and softly said his name “Hey Owen” ahem “why do you call me Mr. Grady?” I love a parallel and progression in one !! Also, I def need to see again but... he was singing “I still love you” right? Anyway, I died.
-Hearing Bryce’s laugh in this movie was everything I never knew I needed so much. At first I thought she was quickly drunk or something... but then hearing them talking and lightly arguing about what happened between them gave me all the feels because YES THEY WERE IN A RELATIONSHIP BEFORE. THEY’VE SLEPT TOGETHER. WERE GOING TO LIVE TOGETHER. I-
When his voice got all soft again and told her her skin looked nice I ???? Like someone on here mentioned, I bet he call(ed)s her beautiful all the time. When they were together and in bed. In the mornings. Cuddling. He would call her beautiful just because asdfghjkl anyway.
-Claire’s look of anguish when Owen couldn’t get into the gyrosphere. When he was in the water and the look they shared. Again, Bryce and Chris’s acting was impeccable. It just screamed how much they were scared of losing one another. 
-Small moment, but when Claire saw that Owen was in the back of the plane asdfghjkl cute af
-There were so many cute little moments. I loved the teamwork. When they were trying to get the blood from the t-rex and Owen was laughing at Claire being on top of it. Also- Claire on top of a t-rex? I can’t wait for all the parallel gifs from the first movie with this one. Claire is one badass babe.
wHEN THEY FELL ASLEEP AND HER HAND WAS I N S I D E HIS SHIRT honestly it couldve been outside- but no they were like lETS HAVE IT INSIDE SINCE THEY USED TO HAVE ALL THE SEX I see you Jay you beautiful director you. AND THEN OWEN’S LIL SMILE WHEN HE SAW HER AND THEN HE SMELLED HER HAIR AND THEN PRETENDED TO BE ASLEEP WHEN SHE STARTED TO STIR R U KIDDING ME THIS IS WHAT FIC DREAMS ARE MADE OF I swear the entire JW crew ships clawen we are hashtag BLESSED.
-I love their trust for one another and how well they knew each other and I love that that was something so prominent yet casual all the same? All the teamwork and Owen telling her to start the truck when they were getting off the island...
-When Owen was going to see Blue and Claire was worried and Owen started to play into her emotions because it’s him and she did that little gasp because this is the part where he tells her he loves her or kisses her (also for audience reasons) and it was just so aslsadjla cute and funny and them and also worked perfectly because when they DID kiss it was 97654321 times more emotional so 10/10 writing. 
-Claire knowing how much Blue means to Owen. Owen telling her it wasn’t her fault. Owen talking to her softly when she was trying to decide to save the dinos. His hand on her shoulder. 
-When they stood like a family next to Maisie and they all but drove into the sunset together?? I guess they’re parents now??????? Did this actually happen?? I do hope Maisie asks for a little sibling and if there’s a time jump in the next one they need to be married with a little Grady baby.
Anyway, this is all over the place and I’m sure I’ll analyze more the next time I go see it because it just has to happen. I loved it so much I got so emotional and overwhelmed bc I missed this movie and these two characters. I can’t believe it’s been 3 years since the first which changed my life and ugh I can’t wait for the next one but also don’t want it yet bc I’m soooo not ready to say goodbye to it. At all. Ever. Can it just be a tv show??
I was very pleased with the clawen we got. Even if they weren’t together in the movie, we got so many scenes with them together and it exceeded my expectations with the love that was felt, the looks we got, the CUDDLING, the KISS. THEY REALLY DID KISS AGAIN MY GOD.
I’ll probably do another post on just Claire on how badass she was because that’s a whole other essay with how amazing her arc and progression is. But real quick:
-she looked so beautiful I will never stop talking about this
-boots or heels it doesn’t matter she will save the day
-she served so many good looks in this movie asdfghjkl Claire in jeans and all nice and corporate and then badass I’m- overwhelmed
-how sweet she was with Maisie WHAT A MOM
-when she gets on the roof with the rifle and it’s raining ummm am I the only one who go seriously turned on? ESP after getting badly injured?? yooooo
-how she went from “the assets” to dino!mom trying to save them all just makes me want to curl up in the fetal position and cry forever
-WHEN SHE BANGED THAT ASSHAT’S HEAD AGAINST THE BARS AND OWEN LOOKED SO PROUD OF HIS GIRL ASDFGHJKL; again: I was turned on
-she loves Owen so much
speaking of Owen he was so mature and loves Claire so much he literally only went because of her you can’t convince me otherwise even tho he wanted to save Blue too. He loves his girls... and he has another one now.
ahhhh ok I know I’m missing a lot of things- I want to talk about the plot and other characters, visuals, etc later in more detail but I had to get all my clawen excitement out because I was bursting. Still am tbh. I can’t wait to see it again and for everyone to post gifs so I can catch the little things I missed. And oh the fics... how I missed them. 
Again, always feel free to fangirl with me over this movie because I’m currently still spiraling.

Sexy Photoshoot ;-)
yay, i told myself i’d finish this today and here it is, my first ever tyler joseph x male reader (NSFW)
Tumblr media
one day you were asked by a friend if you’d do a photoshoot for his classmate. as an aspiring photographer you were no stranger for doing favors, but when he said you’d actually be paid, you were all in. he set you up with a time and place to meet, and you weren’t expecting much. but when you finally met the singer/piano player ‘tyler’ at a chipotle, you were floored. stood before you was this lanky, shy boy in a hoodie with large brown eyes and the most pouty pink lips. he looked innocent, yet his fluffy hair and bedroom eyes screamed sex. you could definitely work with this. if only your mind would stop undressing him and imagining his pretty lips stretched around your cock, you might actually be able to focus and have him as a regular client.
“i rented out this studio downtown for tonight, i think it’ll be perfect” tyler mentioned between sips of his soda. “it’ll be at like 1 am though, i hope that’s ok?”
“it’s not a problem, but why so late?” you asked.
“there weren’t many time slots, and i need these pretty soon. also the late night hours are usually cheaper. plus i like staying up late” he explained.
“i see. do you want to plan out some of the shots in advance or just kind of see what happens” you asked. tyler looked down at his hands as if the answer was there.
“i was sort of hoping that you could...um...direct me” he said, a slight blush rising on his cheeks. you could almost feel the animal side in you about to take over, but you maintained your cool not wanting to creep the guy out.
“of course we could... try a few things” you said, blushing when that sounded more suggestive than you’d intended. ok tone it down you’re going to scare him away. “well here’s my number. text me with the address and i’ll be there.” you casually said, scribbling your number on the back of a receipt. you could feel him eyeing you as you were writing, and he only confirmed it when you looked up and he bashfully broke eye contact. he grinned, taking the receipt and putting it in his hoodie pocket before you both went separate ways.
you were never so excited to receive a text in your life. it was up to you to make him look good and to focus on him the entire time. but with the sexual tension from earlier, you were unsure exactly how it would work out.
11:32 pm: hey, it’s tyler. meet me at 2495 nameoki rd downtown behind the brick building :)
you stared at the text for a few minutes before replying with a “k thanks c u there” and saving his number. you had kind of a plan for how you were going to style him and have him pose, but it’d all depend on what he was comfortable with. time flew by as you got ready, grabbed your camera/tripod and headed out at half past midnight.
when you pulled into the parking lot behind the building you seen a dark figure standing next to the entrance. yep, definitely him. he was still wearing the hoodie, except with his hood pulled up. he seemed intently focused on his cell phone which was lighting up his face. he smiled nervously once he seen you pull up and get out.
“hey” he greeted you, opening the door and leading you inside the building.
“hey. this is pretty cool, i never knew of this place” you said, looking around at the large, mostly empty room with white walls.
“yeah, me neither. in fact this is my first photoshoot ever and i’m glad my classmate knew of someone who’d do this. i’m not confident in getting my picture taken” tyler admitted.
“really? well maybe i can change that, you know. bring out your inner model” you teased. he laughed, which seemed to break some of the tension.
“yeah right, model” he rolled his eyes at just the idea. wow, this kid really doesn’t see that he’s fucking gorgeous?
“what do you mean?” you asked more seriously.
“well, i’m not much to look at. which is ok, because i do music and…” he began before you cut him off.
“wait wait wait...not much to look at? you really have no idea that you are actually hot, do you.” you knew it was a little bold, but it was a knee-jerk reaction to the atrocity he just spoke.
“y-you think i’m...hot?” he asked, barely above a whisper. he was already standing next to you, watching as you set up the tripod. you could tell your little confession changed things for him, and it gave you confidence that he didn’t freak out.
“certainly” you answered, standing up and smiling at how he lit up at the compliment. he was going to be lots of fun. you put your hands on his shoulders, massaging them to get him to relax while thinking.
“lose the hoodie” you demanded, voice low and husky. his eyes widened, but long, slender fingers immediately flew to his zipper. finally you could see a bit more of what you were working with, and you were definitely pleased. he shrugged his hoodie off, letting it fall to the floor. you started taking an interest in how obedient he was, and how he was gazing at you innocently just awaiting more orders. you smirked, realizing how you may be able to pull out his kinky side with just a little bit of manipulation.
“alright, good. very good...” you praised, looking him up and down and shamelessly checking out his body. you purposefully did it for a little too long, asserting your dominance until he was shifting impatiently. you stepped forward, closing the little bit of gap and stroking his soft cheek, noting how he closed his eyes and swallowed. your knuckles trailed down his throat to his adam’s apple.
“you have a very hot body. and a very stunning face.” you spoke gently but authoritatively. he nodded slightly, eyes flicking back to yours. they looked hazy and unsure, but he still leaned forward to press his lips to yours ever so softly. you were pleasantly surprised by his initiative, cupping the nape of his neck and granting his tongue access. his lips were warm and plump, and you could taste some kind of minty sweetness on his tongue. a string of spit connected your lips to his when you pulled back and looked at his flushed face. he licked his lips, breaking the string and snapping you out of your thoughts.
“okay, as bad as i want to destroy you right now, i better take these photos before i do that.” you said, still panting lightly.
“what would you like me to do?” tyler asked sweetly.
“i’d like you to take your clothes off. but for now i guess...stand in front of that backdrop.” you instructed.
“o..okay” he said, stumbling back towards the backdrop. he naturally put his hands in his pockets and stared at you with these glossy eyes, desperation giving him this mysterious edge. you figured this would come across perfectly in a photoshoot, considering his style.
“good, just like that” you encouraged, and right away you started snapping photos. they were simple, but just the fact that they were him automatically made them more interesting.
“but i’m not really doing anything” he said, shrugging and shifting on his feet, then running his hand through his hair nervously. you smiled as you continued taking photos.
“you are, though. you’re being yourself!” you said in a dorky way to make him laugh.
“oh my god, that’s so lame!” he yelled, laughing.
“alright, now you have to give me something sexy. your best pose” you said mischievously. he gave you a playful glare, pulling up the hem of his shirt to show some skin while biting his bottom lip. you had to admit, the gesture and his ‘fuck me’ look was enough to cause your dick to jump in your pants.
“such a little tease. should i spank you for that?” you asked, adjusting yourself and trying to be subtle.
“maybe” he answered, pulling his shirt higher to expose his hard nipple. he blatantly grabbed his dick, smirking and knowing that you were still snapping photos. you could see the perfect outline of his hardon the way he was grabbing it. oh that’s it, you thought.
within minutes you had him bent over your lap with his pants and underwear down around his knees. a naughty boy like that deserved a good spanking.
“yes, pleeeease oh fuck…” tyler moaned, rolling his hips as you palmed the smooth, round curve of his ass. you slowly built anticipation before landing a generous smack, grabbing the right cheek roughly. his hips jolted forward as he let out a harsh cry, making you think you might’ve done it too hard.
“is that okay, baby boy?” you asked out of concern.
“mhmm, more” he mumbled.
“ooh, my little slut wants more now, does he?” you teased, watching the red develop on his ass. you rubbed over it soothingly, running your other hand up his arched back before slapping two more times. “you want people seeing those slutty photos of you, baby? or do you want them to be just for me?” you asked, sucking your middle finger.
“just...ahh, just for you” tyler moaned as you slid the wet finger around his hole before slowly inserting it. you felt him tighten around your finger as you wiggled it, coaxing him to relax. you were both hard from the teasing, your cock pressed into his stomach and his naked cock leaking on your outer thigh. you pulled your cock out of its confines with your free hand and as you expected, he just had to look down and take a peak for himself.
“well, what do you think? it’s not gonna suck itself.” you said playfully, causing him to smirk. he scooted down a little and wrapped his hand around your cock, leaning over to take your tip in his mouth. he teased around your glans with his tongue, finally wrapping his lips around you firmly. you placed your hand on the back of his head, pushing a little.
“fuck that’s a good boy. your mouth feels so good, lovely” you moaned, out of breath as he took your cock further down his throat. he was a damn professional, moaning and sucking like his life depended on it. you groaned loudly, hand pressing harder on his head without realizing it. it stayed there down his throat too long and caused him to gag, catching your attention.
“shit, i’m sorry, baby. here, let’s get that shirt off.” you said, allowing him to come up for air.
“it’s ok, i like it” he muttered, eyes watered and red. his lips looked so shiny and slick you could’ve nutted from the sight alone. you pulled his shirt up over his head and while you were at it you took yours off too. then you guided him to lay on his back, straddling his hips. part of you knew it was wrong to hook up with a perfect stranger that you were supposed to be taking photos of, but when you seen him gazing up at you with those big brown eyes while clumsily kicking off his pants, you couldn’t say no. he didn’t feel like a stranger to you anyway. you guided his legs apart once he was naked, lining yourself up to his hole and pressing in. he was a tight fit at first, but as he relaxed, you could tell he wasn’t new to anal penetration. whether he fucked often or used toys, you didn’t care. you watched in amazement as his mouth fell open and eyes rolled back from taking your cock.
“fuck, y/n, your cock feels so good” he sighed, nails delicately scratching your shoulders at the full feeling. his praise encouraged you to start slowly rocking your hips, hitting his spot over and over and causing him to tense around you like a vice. you knew it wouldn’t be long for either of you.
“you like it when i fuck you like this, tyler?” you asked, wanting to hear more of his sexy voice. your thrusts were involuntarily speeding up, but you kept it shallow to hold off just a bit longer. you wanted it to last, because part of you wasn’t sure if this would be the last time.
“ugh god yes, harder please” he begged, squirming. he tilted his face up to yours and parted his lips, asking for a kiss. he was irresistible. you connected your lips to his, once again exploring his delicious mouth. his legs wrapped around your back tightly to hold you in deep.
“wanna cum, princess?” you asked, sitting up on your knees and hooking your arms around his legs. he whimpered, either from the nickname or the angle change, you weren’t sure. but when he nodded enthusiastically, you took that as your cue to really lay into him. he was the one to cum first, quickly stroking himself and finishing on his chest. he wasn’t even through his orgasm when you released inside him, causing him to shiver at the warm sensation and adding to his pleasure. you gently set down his legs, pulling your now flaccid dick out of him and smirking when he softly whined.
“so was i any good?” you asked, already able to tell it was from the state he was in. you grabbed your shirt nearby, cleaning him up. you didn’t mind the thought of leaving with his cum on your shirt.
“y/n, i don’t think i’ve ever been fucked like that before” tyler admitted, still looking quite dazed and exhausted. he put his hand up to his head, wiping the sweat from his brow and you laughed. you went to put on your shirt, but he grabbed it from your hand and pushed you down on your back. you were surprised by his sudden dominance, landing on your back with an oof, but allowed him to crawl on top of you and kiss you anyway. you both made out like that for a bit until tyler got cold and needed to put clothes on. “so i’ll just text you when i need more pics?”

                             remember my thanksgiving list? this one is gonna be worse. yes you read right, im attempting this and i hope whoever sees this has a nice day and happy holidays. star tr.ek in more ways than i care to admit has shaped my life so to write paul and get back into the fandom felt like a fresh breeze while simultaneously it felt like coming home and i’m incredibly happy to be here again with such cool and kind folks like you all.                             basically, because german’s celebrate christmas on the 24th and we open our presents the same evening this might come as a pre-present to some of you but whatever. HAPPY HOLIDAYS, guys, under the cut is a long ass list from me to you to express just how grateful i am for you all to be here. i tried my best to include as many people as i could but of course, i sadly don't have the capacity to find kind words for all of my beauty followers but please be aware - and i might repeat myself but it doesn't make it less true - i love you all and im thankful you’re here with me.

@burnedlegend : you truly are a very special specimen. obv not in a bad way i mean i fucking love you but in a way that you’re so unique even though you’re sometimes a mess i can honestly say im looking forward to seeing you grow and be happy in your life bc already you have a fantastic personality and a kind soul and you’re so refreshing to talk to (when u fucking answer) idk if i have told you lately, probably not bc lets face it i suck as well, but i adore you and i value your friendship and i’ll always be here if you need me. you’re great no matter what anyone says, bc you’re you and i love that man that i have come to know over the course of this year bc he is such a passionate disaster and i wouldn’t want you to stop being you for anything in the world.
@revivedlegend : you’re an absolute dear, you have been there for me in tough times and you’ve given me so many great advice i honestly don't know what i would do without you. i know life is hard and i know people say it gets better but sometimes it doesn’t look that way? listen, you’re perfect and you deserve good things and im absolutely positive that you’ll reach great things, that life will be beautiful for you but until then im here for you and i love you with all of my heart and some that i borrowed from gabe. you are amazingly creative even if you dont see that right know but i have always loved your portrayals, your writing and your devotion to the things you love. christina you’re fantastic, okay. <3

Top 10 Albums of the Decade: Nic Martin
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Nightmare Avenged Sevenfold
[2010]
This is a fitting album to start with; I will probably always pin my decision to pursue music as a career on Avenged Sevenfold. 14-year-old me was absolutely crushed by the tragic death of drummer Jimmy Sullivan in 2009, but truly believed in the band’s decision to carry on, full speed ahead, and manifest Sullivan’s vision that he never got to complete; being 2010’s Nightmare.
While I personally never cared for the title track/lead single, it was cathartic and honest tracks like Victim and Tonight The World Dies that really showed me a new and important layer to the band I was already so inspired by. We still had the A7X that has gone on to, frankly, dominate the world stage - the relentless Danger Line and prog-epic-closer Save Me were reminders that these California boys were on to something huge, and they knew it.
Tumblr media
Teenage Dream  Katy Perry
[2010]
Admittedly: I came to listen to Katy Perry because I had a mad celeb-crush on her in this era. This album is a surprisingly diverse collection of legitimately well written pop songs, front-to-back. Obviously it has the singles we’re all numb to these days (I’m pretty sure California Gurls and Firework were enforced listening for every Jayjay’s across the country), but I found myself using songs like Circle The Drain and Hummingbird Heartbeat as an excuse to enjoy the undeniable pleasure of great pop melodies. 
I guess I just feel like this was one of those “cut-above” mega-pop albums, alongside T-Swift’s 1989 and Bieber’s Purpose, I guess I just never saw either of them shooting whipped cream from their chest.
Tumblr media
There Is A Hell, Believe Me I’ve Seen It. There Is A Heaven, Let’s Keep It A Secret  Bring Me The Horizon
[2010]
I rarely hear people cite this as their favourite Bring Me album; never disregarded, but never the top of many lists; yet you Tumblr-Millennials out there would be lying if you said you never reblogged a grainy photo of a bedroom strewn with fairy-lights and band posters with lyrics from It Never Ends or Blessed With A Curse edited over it. I have no issue in saying that the quality of Oli Sykes’ voice was at a low point for this release, but I will always defend the telling depth and emotion that’s explored in the lyrics and structure of each song.
A dark and pummelling metalcore offering in a general sense, it’s Bring Me’s signature unapologetic approach to the point of difference they’re always pursuing – especially on tracks like Blacklist, the transition between the second half of Fuck into Don’t Go, and the catastrophic closer The Fox and the Wolf – that ensured I would keep tabs on this band’s evolution throughout the decade.
Tumblr media
Periphery II: This Time It’s Personal Periphery
[2012]
I have a tattoo dedicated to this album and how much this band + album changed my perception of music, especially heavy metal. With that considered, I struggle to find a way to describe this album in way that isn’t simply “If you like metal, go and listen to this album” because there is bound to be something within this gem that will scratch an itch you didn’t know you had.
No one else sounded quite like this, and no one really has since. Whatever, djent. This album absolutely rips. Spencer Sotelo’s vocals are inhuman (not pitch-corrected on this album, noteworthy), and it contains multiple personal-favourite guitar solos ever, ever (Luck As A Constant and Mile Zero). Listen to the whole damn thing, but check out Muramasa, Facepalm Mute, Scarlet, or Ragnarok if you need convincing.
Tumblr media
Parallax II: Future Sequence  Between The Buried And Me
[2012]
“Goodbye To Everything”. One hell of an alluring motif, no? There is a LOT to unpack on this album, and if you struggle to resonate with musical journeys that take you across the galaxy and back 10+ minutes at a time, then it’ll take a while to sink your teeth into Future Sequence to the depth that it deserves to be appreciated at. The technicality and intricacy of the music accurately reflects the complexity of the lyrical narrative, only made even less-accessible by Tommy Giles Rogers’ ambiguous, cryptically simple/broad verses. 
As necessary as the shorter breather tracks/interludes are, the highlights on this release are the lengthier pieces that all take you on a true journey, taking its time to set each scene and its mood. Lay Your Ghosts To Rest and Telos are integral tracks that really take you to a new dimension and show you every nook and cranny of it; and the final 18 minutes of Silent Flight Parliament & Goodbye To Everything (Reprise) has got to be the single most epic metal album closer this decade; a claim I’m open to having challenged. 
Make no mistake, this is literally a 72 minute melting pot of progressive rock and technical death metal, with hearty sides of wack synths and lush orchestration, atmosphere that shifts from grand to crushing, and cheeky passages that skim from surf-rock to noodly jazz.
Tumblr media
Altered State  TesseracT
[2013]
My uncle introduced me to TesseracT’s first album One in 2012, which immediately cemented the band as one of my favourites. But 2013’s Altered State is one of those “perfectly aligned” albums for me: it was exactly what I needed to hear right when it was announced and released. It’s the only album to feature vocalist Ashe O’Hara (who now sings for Voices In The Fuselage) and is widely considered their crown jewel – although I firmly stand by the sentiment that TesseracT are incapable of writing a song that isn’t stunningly incredible.
The album is 10 tracks split into four “suites”: Of Matter, Of Mind, Of Reality, and Of Energy; so it was a daunting thought to try and absorb the entire thing in that way during my first listen. This is one of those albums that you know how incredible it is, but it’s not until you find yourself going back to it again and again over the years that you get to truly appreciate how perfectly executed the entire 50 minutes really is. The effortlessly impossible, extended rhythmic passages in Eclipse and Singularity; the sound of a heart exploding in Resist; the GOD DAMN SAXOPHONE in Calabi-Yau and Embers, it’s ALL there to make one of the most remarkable progressive metal albums ever; and they did it without a single scream or sub-drop.
Tumblr media
To Pimp A Butterfly Kendrick Lamar
[2015]
I have no shame in announcing that hip-hop is a genre I forced myself to like. My brother had a soft spot for it growing up, and a lot of people in my school liked it; so, while I was familiar, I hadn’t found the album ‘for me’. good kid, m.A.A.d City showed me who Kendrick Lamar was and that – like pretty much every other teenager in 2012 – I quite liked his songs. The Blacker The Berry will never not-give me the same goosebumps I got upon first hearing it. I remember seeing the announcement that To Pimp A Butterfly had just been released hours earlier on iTunes, it was probably the first album I ever purchased online that wasn’t anything close to rock or metal, and – once again – I have no shame in admitting that the artwork was a big reason for why I was so immediately drawn to wanting to hear it.
Man, as I sit here listening to the intro to u at 12:30am, driving the entire album into one of its many, many dark and completely out-the-gate corners, I’m reminded that this album was so damn ahead of its time. Kendrick is unpacking SO much. He sits you down and pours you a drink as Wesley’s Theory lulls you in with its sexy groove and upbeat formalities, and he continues to tell you EXACTLY what the fuck is up, and he does it with pure, unapologetic class. The music on this album is just… it literally leaves me speechless nearly 5 years on: there are moments where it feels like the speakers couldn’t possibly handle another layer of jazzy instrumentation or lush, effect-laden basslines. But it’s when you take that, then add Kendrick’s stories, and that’s why this album transcends beyond most other hip-hop/rap releases; listen to How Much A Dollar Cost? or Mortal Man and tell me that he doesn’t have SO much to say that the already-limitless musical landscape can barely contain him.
Tumblr media
131 Emarosa
[2016]
Something I had to keep remembering as I considered my list and wrote about each album is that we were asked to talk about albums that were important to us and our lives on a personal level. So, although Emarosa have multiple FANTASTIC albums, 131 was an album that found me and reached out to pull me out of a dark place in my life. Bradley Walden had already proved that he was a beautiful vocalist with a gorgeous voice on 2014’s Versus, but 131 feels so honest and more real in comparison. 
This album doesn’t try to be anything more or less than what it is: a collection of meaning rock songs about life and the more personal, intricate emotions and tribulations that most people endure. Songs like Sure and Cloud 9 draw you in with their ear-worm choruses, but they keep you around with the heartfelt stories being told, all of a sudden you’re lying on your kitchen floor with tears streaming down your face wailing to the climax of Never while you think about your bb. This album helped me understand and forgive myself, I hope it can help you too.
Tumblr media
Clairvoyant  The Contortionist
[2017]
“Wow, Nic put Clairvoyant in his ‘Albums of the Decade’ list? What a genuine surprise…”
Anyone who knows me is probably sick of just how frequently and in-depth I talk about this album. The Contortionist were that band that all my favourite bands loved but I never got around to checking out. That was until my friend Declan showed me Return To Earth, which would easily make my top singles of the decade, too. It’s a perfect representation of the entire album: melancholic, intense, epic, and worth being patient with as it pulls you in with its devastating themes of addiction and loss. Vocalist Michael Lessard has said the album’s lyrics were written as the darker extension of 2014’s critically acclaimed Language; the general story revolves around his close friend’s untimely overdose due to his struggles after losing his mother, with Clairvoyant taking a more subdued, less metaphorical look at the despair his friend endured.
While this album does have its hookier and more upbeat moments - found in Reimagined and the title track – it’s the way these sections are woven into a much bigger picture that really turns every track into one 54 minute journey that you’d be remiss to not repeat a few times on a road trip or during a rainy day in. A personal highlight for me is the closing track Monochrome (Pensive), particularly after having listened to the entire album from the beginning first. As one of the most heart-crushing and honest moments lyrically, the song is ultimately an indescribable piece of art: catastrophically grand, breath-takingly emotional, this album is one of my most highly recommended ever.
Tumblr media
Sundowning Sleep Token
2019
My most treasured musical discovery this year; I heard a 7-second-long snippet of Sleep Token’s 2017 single Calcutta on another artist’s Instagram story and was shocked: were you even allowed to pair a voice as lush as Vessel’s with a musical landscape that ultimately builds into a down-tuned breakdown? I was hooked, I needed more than the minimal offerings (heh) that were available – though EVERY song leading up to Sundowning is absolutely stunning in their own rights.
All of a sudden, The Night Does Not Belong To God appears on YouTube as I check my phone early one Thursday morning: fantastic, a new single. Two weeks later, to the day: The Offering makes itself known and has since dominated the band’s ‘popular songs’ on all streaming platforms. Another exact fortnight later, Levitate is an unexpected, yet welcome change of pace as a tender piano ballad topped with Sleep Token’s signature grand-finale-breakdown that can only be described as a wrecking ball levelling everything that was so intricately crafted in the 3-4 minutes prior. A pattern was emerging, and I was HERE for it. Sundowning revealed itself as 12 tracks, each carefully composed but linked together with an emotional lyrical thread, as well as aligned graphics/videos and even merch released with each track. As a working musician, this marketing approach completely blew me away, but when the music being pushed is this boundless, this forward-thinking, this calculated yet so naturally flowing, it gives me hope for the future of heavy music.
Every song is worth giving equal time and attention to, the band knows this and that’s why they released it that way. There are no two songs that sound like each other, but there certainly are various, vivid shades to Sleep. From the brutally thick ending to Higher or Gods, to the cheekily obscure, trap-versed banger Dark Signs, to the gorgeously progressive epics Say That You Will and Blood Sport; this album is one that anyone who considers themselves a fan of music needs to check out. This is what the future of music sounds like.
Listen to our decade wrapped over on Spotify!
