college boyfriend!hyungwon;

somehow, someway... the frog prince has become a new lowkey bias of mine,,,, totally on accident

no accidents here we stan like men

so this post is for this request!! i feel like all i ever do is college boyfriend aus but they’re like... so much fun

now, hyungwon... no one knows what he does in college

honestly even his friends take turns guessing what his major is

hyungwon has so many different interests and he bounces from studying history to reading up on fashion to trying out his newest concoctions in the kitchen

everyone knows he isn’t majoring in culinary or anything bc boy cannot cook for his life

but who knowS??? chae hyenigma

but no matter what he does, he always ends up, somehow, near the art school of the uni

he finds himself strolling around, watching students with paint splattered shoes and graphite stained hands furiously drawing in their notebooks or taking pictures of the sky

maybe it’s because whenever he does walk by, students beg him for a pic

hyungwon, in his best gucci cream sweater and styling a louis vuitton backpack: oh,,, you want to photgraph me??? i wasn’t expecting this!! :)))

tbh he loves modeling

he loves people admiring him and he’s definitely aware of how handsome he is so he doesn’t mind it at all

but like, it’s usually nothing new

he’ll do a few unenthusiastic poses and the students eat it up like sunday dinner

part of him just kind of grows apathetic to the whole deal, going as far as avoiding the art school on days when he can’t be bothered to make the same two faces at their cameras anymore

but then he’s running late for a class and the fastest way to get to it is to cut through the art campus, so he knows he’s gotta hightail it out of there

he’s running as fast as his legs can take him, coincidentally, right past you

you’re a photography student tasked with the project of putting together a photo collage based off the word “warmth”

for the most part, you had taken a few pictures of the autumn trees and stuff but nothing really hit you with inspo

right as you’re posing on the ground to take a break, hyungwon flies by, the air he kicks up rustling your hair into your eyes and taking you by surprise

when you look up, all you see is this tall guy sprinting, a long white blouse billowing behind him and before you know it you’re snapping a picture

it’s beautifully hasty and actually kind of good, and you start to smile to yourself, looking up to where the guy has disappeared, but he’s running so fast that he’s around the corner before you can call him back for his permission

you decide that maybe it was just a fleeting glance, and the university is pretty big so you doubt you’ll see him again

wrong

it’s a few hours later when you’re in your dorm studying that you happen across him again

there’s commotion outside and you recognize a few voices yelling over each other so you decide you’ll get a peek on the #drama and maybe yell at them to keep it down

but when you peek out of the door of your dorm, you see

the back

it’s the guy you photographed earlier!!! maybe now you can ask for his permission to use the pic

there are two art students fighting over him, one grabbing his left arm and the other his right, complaining that they saw him first and they wanna use him as their muse

you feel kind of bad for him so you hope that maybe interrupting him won’t bother him too much

you gently tap on his shoulder and for a moment, you think he hasn’t noticed you, until he suddenly turns and

oh no

not this bastard

your hopeful expression falls as soon as you realize that the guy you photographed was chae hyungwon, and flashbacks of freshman year, a spilled coffee and a singed eyebrow come to the forefront of your mind

“you” he huffs, finding the strength to pull himself free

“you” you huff back, folding your arms across your chest, “what are you doing here?”

“i can be anywhere i damn well please!!” the two students are so frightened at the sudden hostility in both of your voices that they just slowly start slinking away, hoping that whatever they walked into they can safely walk out of

you had almost completely forgotten the asshole who had drenched your entire outfit in boiling hot coffee freshman year

and he had almost forgotten the klutz who had mixed up the wrong chemicals for a project and burned off half his eyebrow

he couldn’t leave the dorm for days. his friend hyunwoo had to hold an intervention about external beauty standards for a full three hours just to get him to get out of bed

and i mean it was bad enough for you that most people in your art school raved about how handsome he was and how he had specially picked them to model for and yada yada yada

all you could do was glare at each other, the tension growing thicker and thicker until hyungwon looks down toward your hands and... shit

you had your camera out, and the picture of him displayed on the screen

all too soon he’s smirking at you and plucking the camera out of your hands, effectively holding it out of your reach as he grins, “ohhhhhhh~ to think miss ice queen admires me too??? who would’ve known? were you coming over to gush about how handsome my backside is?”

you manage to snatch the camera from him while he looks at you all smug, “actually, i came to ask the stranger i snapped for permission to use the picture but due to unforseen circumstances i think i’ll just delete it”

your finger is literally hovering over the delete button, and while you have all the strength to do so, a feeling in the pit of your stomach make you think twice

bc this is the first time you’ve actually had inspiration for this damned project, and now you had to delete it bc of this damn guy

suddenly hyungwon is grabbing your wrist and yelling for you not to delete it at all

at first, you’re stunned by his sudden change in tone

he looks actually kind of remorseful as he holds your wrist, and part of you thinks he’s actually gonna apologize for being such a douche-

“that’s a really amazing photo of me, it’d be a sin to delete it”

growling, you rip your hand back, but he’s,,,, really latched on there,,, you didn’t know he had such a grip holy hell

and his eyes are swirling with... determination

“wait,” he actually pleads, “you can use it. how about an exchange, hm?”

“exchange for what?” your eyebrows furrow and the options going through your head do not sound pleasant. pleasurable, maybe, but-

“you take surprisingly nice photos of me. why don’t you take some more?” “what makes you think i want to take more photos of you? you don’t even know what i wanted to use this one for” “then tell me”

and to your shock, he’s actually looking pretty interested in what you have to say

so, very very reluctantly, you start to indulge him on the photo project you’re up to and its theme

you even tell him that the pic had been your first piece of real inspo in days

his eyes seem to light up a lil and he laughs, “perfect. then i can be your inspo, and you can take amazing pictures of me. sounds like a fair deal”

i mean... it kinda was

but this was also chae hyungwon we were talking about, the guy who hated your guts for really no good reason (the chemistry project was an accident, though no one really believed you with your wrists still healing from the coffee burns)

“why do you want me to photograph you? you literally just had two people fighting over that very right a few minutes ago”

but all he does is smile, shrugging, “call it a cease-fire. i was getting a little tired ignoring you on campus all the time”

and i mean, it’s not like you really have a lot of options at this point for inspiration, so damning your inner muse, you accept his offer

your cooperation starts off slow, with you two being extremely awkward around each other

the inspiration is there but you’re so used to the negative energy that encompassed you both that now that you have to be nice, it’s kind of weird

hyungwon can tell how stiff you are, because he’s just as stiff too

he’s never really seen you as anything but the person that almost blinded him tbh

but after he had seen the picture you had taken of him, he realized you truly had a talent with a camera

even the pictures you took that you didn’t like were still beautiful

you two would meet up at random places, take a few dozen photos, and then you’d scrap them all before you even got back to your dorm

after a while, he could tell you were coming close to your wit’s end, so he decided the only fix was familiarity

he showed up to your dorm one morning with two coffees and a big, fluffy red scarf wrapped around his mouth and nose

as soon as you opened the door, he was hissing and brushing past you, mumbling something like “i’m gonna freeze my balls off out there, why don’t you answer your phone?”

it’s only then do you realize what that faint buzzing sound was under your pillow

he’s just shoving the coffee into your hand, pulling his scarf off and going “get as warm as possible. we’re going outside”

after you’ve dressed up in something warm, you’re about to grab your camera but hyungwon stops you, and for once, he actually, genuinely smiles at you, “I don’t think you need that”

it’s cold outside for sure, but the view of bare trees and the ground covered in leaves of all colors is a sight to see with your own two eyes

your hands itch, wanting to capture it with your camera, but hyungwon is insistent that for now, you just need a break

he talks to you on your walk, indulging about himself and tugging info from you about your life and your passions

you even find out that hyungwon’s major is chemical science!! which makes a lot of sense after seeing how distraught he was that year when you had burned off his eyebrow mixing the wrong chemicals

he tells you that not many people expect it of him, and he never indulges because people tend to chalk him up to his pretty face and he’s just kind of accepted that no one expects anything more of him than that

but he also tells you how much he loves calculation and precision, and how beautifully interesting science and nature are to him

he ends up talking your ear off for a good hour about it, and you barely notice time has passed until you can’t feel your toes and hyungwon is walking you to a nearby café to warm up

he orders his drink and while he’s looking away you can’t seem to stop staring at the side of his face, his attention drawn to his phone when his friend kihyun texts him “how the hell are you awake this early???”

you take out your phone, and quietly snap this picture

as you look down at it, a lightbulb seems to flip on in your mind

“I got it!!!” you yell, startling a few customers and hyungwon

“got what???” he asks, placing his hands on your shoulders

“my inspiration... i know what i want to shoot now. come outside with me”

and you proceed to pose him, taking pictures of him kicking up leaves and laughing, taking blurry photos of him sprinting past trees and looking through shop windows

each has its own warm, simple quality

they’re not perfectly clear, but they remind you of the warmth of having someone to be in love with in the autumn cold

you even take a few faceless pictures with him, arms wrapped around the other or your hands holding cups of hot drinks

by the end, you’re so satisfied with the aesthetic of it that you feel a need to tell him

“hyungwon... thank you so much, you have no idea how slumped i was with this project until you came along”

and for the first time, hyungwon b l u s h e s

like... red as a cherry

as soon as you notice you point it out with a laugh, but he’s hiding his face behind his hand and blaming it on the cold weather

he ends up sticking around and watching you put the pictures together and it looks really great afterward

the sun has since gone down and hyungwon has quite literally spent the whole day with you

as you both sit on your bed, laptop burning your legs, you turn to him once you see the time, “oh, hyungwon, you should probably head home before it gets too dark”

and he just nods, unable to look away from you for even a moment

you notice his change in behavior but offer to walk him to his dorm, of that which he accepts

while you’re walking with him, he suddenly jolts out of his quiet reverie, “wait, if you walk me home, who’s gonna walk you home?”

and you just giggle, “i can walk myself home, hyungwon. i don’t know if you noticed but i have killer reflexes and an amazing swing”

and hyungwon is just like “:O glad i’m not an enemy anymore”

you two joke and bump each other until you’re about halfway to his dorm when he stops, looking over at you “how about we part here? then i’ll know you didn’t walk super far to get back home”

but before you can even put a filter on your mouth you’re like “why don’t we just exchange numbers and we can text each other when we get home?”

his eyes widen but he accepts, and you two exchange numbers

and maybe it’s the way you pick one of the photos from your “photoshoot” that day as his contact photo, or the way you giggle at the nickname you give him in your phone as “hyunnie”, or maybe it’s just the cool air playing with your hair as you giggle at the name

but he kisses you on the cheek

and doesn’t move

his lips are the only source of warmth on your cheek

and he’s got his eyes shut tight and he’s thinking “omg why did i do this why why why why i made it weird why why why why”

when he comes to his senses he pulls back with a grimace and grips his hair hard and just kind of curses the very moment he was born

until you hook your fingers with his and tug him into you, catching him off guard and making him stumble into you

he catches his balance right as you pull him in for a kiss on his cheek, giggling to yourself, “now we’re even”

all too soon you’re unfolding your fingers from his and he’s losing your warmth, but you’re waving at him over your shoulder and glancing at him every few feet until you turn the corner

and you text him when you get home first because he’s still standing with his hand on his cheek that you kissed like a fool in puppy love

even though you both have class the next morning, you’re texting well into the early hours of the morning, and you ask him on a date after he proves pretty shy about doing so

when you two start officially dating, hyungwon makes the café you two went to that fateful day your prime dating spot

you two even become friends with the nice lady who runs the place and she always makes sure to make your coffees at exactly the right time, because either you or hyungwon will come through that door with flushed cheeks, texting the other that their coffee is on the way

to hyungwon’s friends’ surprise, he’s actually a big fluff in a relationship

he acts kind of cool on the surface but you’ve managed to break that pretty easily

you’re kind of used as a defense whenever they need something from hyungwon

jooheon: *using you as a shield* hyungwon please help me with my homework please i love you!!!!

and you don’t really mind bc honestly his friends are adorable, you have no idea why hyungwon pretends he doesn’t know them in public

until you’ve been dating for two months and now you’re both coming up with strategies on how to avoid them at all costs

if you’re walking to class and see one of them in the hallways you both split up and hide in different classrooms until they pass by

if one of you gets caught.... well it’s every man for themselves lmao

though it’s pretty obvious hyungwon cares about his friends, because whenever they’re in need, he’s always there to help

even when it’s for the smallest things, hyungwon is always helping you

that doesn’t mean he’s void of scolding you tho :)

“really y/n? how could you not bring a jacket in this weather? here, use mine” “you’re sick because you left the house with wet hair, like i’ve told you not to a billion times... anyway, i’m coming over with homemade soup and cough medicine. i got the flavor you like so you better not spit it up this time” “i’m not wikipedia, y/n. you can’t just use me when you don’t listen in class. now turn to page 93″

he scolds you because he loves you, and because he wants you to be the best you can be in life

best believe that no matter what you do, he’s always going to be on the sidelines, cheering you on

he’s the first to tell you good job when you get a good grade, the first to hug you when you get accepted for the job you want, etc etc

hyungwon sometimes closes himself off tho, and it’s common for you to go a few hours, maybe even a few days not being as close as usual

but when he learns that he can trust you completely, you’re the first person he talks to

about anything

he becomes less shy indulging his emotions to you, and he lets you know you always have a clear, logical support system in him as well

you love his intelligence and you’re always the first to see past the superficial with him

but you’re also the first to get him to get him to do things he wouldn’t even do with his friends

even with the smallest things

like texting him this

you: hyungwon...... if you had to assemble a zombie survival team out of pop idols alone, who’s going first on your list?

hyungwon: it is 3 am.

you: i picked gdragon

hyungwon: jesus christ y/n, are you blind?? everyone knows you should pick taecyeon from 2pm

and it’s like.... kind of funny to you how he notices things about you that you don’t even notice

like even the slightest change in the part of your hair?? noticed. he’s probably going to give you his thoughts about it too

he’s always admiring you even when you aren’t looking, because he’s really fascinated with how he got someone like you

and he thinks fondly back on when you singed his eyebrow, even brings it up as a joke in conversation instead of what he considered “the worst month of my life”

sometimes tho, you’ll catch him staring and you’ll just laugh, “what? is something wrong?”

but he shrugs, unable to contain his fondness as he brushes his thumb over your hand in his, “no... not a thing”
