HOME ALONE (mingyu as a dad pt. 3) genre ➳ fluff. mingyu as a dad. warnings ➳ minghao being a menace. mingyu getting bullied. extremely adorable fluff. pairing ➳ husband!mingyu x fem!reader. wc ➳ 2.6k. pt. 1 | pt. 2 | pt. 3

Mingyu waved goodbye to you as you pulled out of the driveway knowing it would be the last time he’d see you for 5 whole days. You were going to visit your family and attend your cousin’s wedding, leaving Mingyu alone with the 3 kids. You were confident in his ability to take care of them without you, but Mingyu, despite the puppy dog smile on his face, was having a minor crisis as he watched you drive away.

He stood there on the porch for a couple seconds, hand frozen in the air, no longer waving, but not brought back down to his side yet. He wished you would drive your car back and say it was all a prank and you weren’t leaving him, childish as that was. When he finally realised he was maybe being a bit dramatic he sighed and turned back to the front door.

He could hear the high pitched screams and giggles that came from the playroom even from outside. They could probably be heard by the neighbours, Mingyu thought. How was he going to manage to take care of a toddler and two babies (who had now mastered the art of crawling and could probably win races with how good they were at it) without the help of his beloved wife?

There was only one answer.

Uncle Minghao, or, as Dowon called him, Uncle Froggie.

Mingyu pulled out his phone, clicking on Minghao’s contact as he walked back inside. Micha sprung on him as soon as he stepped foot in the playroom, clinging to her father’s leg until he hoisted her up to hold in one arm while he talked on the phone with the other.

“Backup would be apprecia- Dowon give your brother the toy or he’ll start screaming!” Mingyu juggled with the justice of the playroom and hoped that Minghao would get the message without further prompting as he hung up the call.

Micha giggled as she watched the chaos around her, holding her father’s t-shirt in a stronger grip than Mingyu thought was possible for a 1-year-old. She had grown even more clingy now that she could travel distances, and always made an effort to reach her father who she’d much rather be attached to 24/7 if that was possible. If she was crying or upset, being in Mingyu’s arms usually calmed her down within seconds.

Mingyu grinned goofily and booped his daughter's nose just to hear her giggle and then sat down to help his sons build their train set. Micha hugged her pink stuffed bunny and sat in her fathers lap, watching with wide eyes as the train tracks were placed down one by one.

Minghao invited himself in through the front door, already knowing the ins and outs of daily life with Mingyu’s three children. He sometimes felt like he spent more time at Mingyu’s house than he did his own apartment, but spending time with his niece and nephews was worth it. He had told Mingyu one late night that he could call him over anytime if he needed backup and he had fulfilled those words every time.

He heard the noises from the playroom and naturally made his way past the living room to the doorway. He cringed a bit and then started laughing, running his hand through his hair as he took in the scene. It usually wasn’t this chaotic. He suspected that his nephews in particular decided to misbehave whenever you weren’t around.

Mingyu looked absolutely helpless, Minghao observed. He was on the floor, Mijun pulling on his hair lightly, Micha bouncing up and down on his chest, and Dowon making a mess of the rest of the room, toys practically flying everywhere.

Dowon stopped when he saw his favourite uncle walk through the door. His face lit up (something Minghao would never get tired of seeing, it was just so cute) and he ran over, his favourite toy car in his hand.

“Uncle Froggie look at my car!!” He shouted, jumping a bit as Minghao grinned and crouched down to take a good look at the toy and ruffle his nephew’s hair.

“You’re here.” Mingyu mumbled, any excitement in his voice long drained along with his energy. Entertaining a toddler and two hyperactive babies was a challenging task.

“You look like you’re managing.” Minghao joked, joining the 4 on the floor and waving to the babies. They paused their torture of their father to giggle and wave back. Mijun even let go of Mingyu’s hair in favour of inspecting Minghao’s earrings for the day— one of his favourite things to do whenever he saw his uncle.

Now that Mingyu was free of his hair being tugged by a tiny hand, he sat up as best he could, making sure his daughter didn’t fall (not that he really needed to; she was still clinging onto him like the playroom floor was made of lava).

“I need to get out of the house. The messier it gets without Y/n around, the more I’m reminded of how much she’ll scold me when she gets back.” Mingyu said, voice cringing at the thought. As your family had grown more and more, your need for some sense of organisation grew with it. Back when it was only newborn Dowon and the two of you, you could deal with small messes not being dealt with for a while. Juggling the ins and outs of being new parents was enough of a challenge without worrying about every messy spot in the house. Maybe it was your mom instincts kicking in as the years went by, but now you practically walked around with a vacuum.

“Usually it doesn’t get this messy this fast. It’s only been, what? An hour since she left?” Minghao teased.

Mingyu’s face fell, eyes pleading and grumping at the same time, “I swear these little ones,” He enunciated it clearly, gesturing to his children, “Always make more messes when I’m the only one to deal with them. As if I don’t make enough messes on my own…”

“Well, if you wanna get out of the house, ice cream’s on me.” Minghao suggested. Dowon approved immediately and his excitement seemed to alert his siblings that this was a thing to be excited for. Soon, all three children were clambering at the thought of going outside to get ice cream.

Mingyu loaded the twins into their stroller and asked Dowon if he wanted to ride in the stroller or walk, to which he chose the latter. Minghao held Dowon’s hand tightly and Mingyu pushed the stroller as they walked the three blocks to the ice cream place.

Minghao happily bought Dowon a cone of cookies & cream ice cream, opting for mango for himself while Mingyu chose neapolitan because “the twins will be able to have a taste of three different flavours this way”. Minghao had rolled his eyes playfully at Mingyu’s dad instincts, though it was cute, he supposed.

It was hot outside, and Dowon’s cone was messy, the ice cream starting to drip faster than the toddler could lick it. Mingyu tried to help, but somehow managed to knock the cone so that the scoop of ice cream landed on the floor.

Minghao’s jaw fell slack, Mingyu’s eyes widened as he started apologising and kicking himself for being so clumsy. Dowon just stared at his father with big betrayed eyes, tears starting to well up causing Mingyu to panic.

“It’s okay Dowon-”

“You really think telling a three year old that it's okay after you just dropped their ice cream on the ground?!” Minghao raised an eyebrow, feeling offended on behalf of Dowon. He patted the boy’s shoulder, coming up with an evil suggestion, “It’s okay Dowon, you can get payback.”

Dowon looked up at his uncle, tears coming to a halt slowly. After a pause for deliberation, the boy’s eyes lit up at the idea despite his father’s desperate glares. When you weren’t around, your children were fearless. Their mischievous uncle only aided their troublemaking.

“How?” Dowon asked eagerly, awaiting his uncle’s instructions with a grin. The two were like partners in crime: Minghao was the mastermind and Dowon was his little henchman that carried out the deed.

“Put the ice cream on his nose.”

Before Mingyu could protest the uncalled for plan of revenge, Dowon was already moving swiftly, scooping some of the spilled ice cream up in the palm of his hand and then booping his father’s nose with his sticky fingers. Mingyu scrunched up his nose at the cold feeling. He couldn’t even find it in him to tell the two off right now. He had felt very guilty about spilling the ice cream in the first place, so he probably deserved it.

Minghao and Dowon were laughing uncontrollably at how funny Mingyu looked, his nose garnished with cookies & cream. Minghao quickly took a couple pictures of his friend, perfectly capturing his facial expression; a mixture of confusion, guilt, and defeat.

When Minghao held up his phone to Mingyu and he saw just how goofy he looked, he started laughing too. Once the giggles had died down, Mingyu scooped up Dowon in his arms, carrying him and the sticky mess on his fingers back into the ice cream shop to wash up in the bathroom.

“We should send the pic to mommy!”

“Didn’t you already get enough payback?” Mingyu laughed, helping his son wash his hands at the high sink by lifting him up. “I’ll show her when I call her tonight, okay?”

“I miss mommy.” Dowon said suddenly as a little frown took over his features.

“Me too. But, she’ll be back in a few days. We can call her every night, okay?”

Minghao stayed for dinner and his presence alone seemed to create a calmer atmosphere with the kids. Maybe it was because he meditated. In any case, it allowed Mingyu to cook a proper meal for his family while Minghao kept the twins entertained. Dowon helped a bit with dinner. Mingyu was training him to be as good a chef as his father.

After Minghao had said goodbye and the twins were soundly asleep for their early bedtime, Mingyu FaceTimed you on his phone while he got Dowon ready for bed.

“Hey baby, how are you holding up?” You asked, a smile immediately forming as soon as Mingyu’s handsome face popped up on your screen. From what it looked like, he was in the bathroom, going through his nighttime routine with Dowon.

“We’re doing alright. Minghao came over and then we got ice cream.” Mingyu narrated while rubbing some moisturizer on his face.

“Daddy dropped my ice cream!” Dowon informed you animatedly, peeking up into view from the side of the camera lens. Mingyu giggled and adjusted his phone so that you could see Dowon better.

“No he didn’t!” You said, feigning more shock than you actually felt. Dropping ice cream seemed like exactly the thing your husband would end up doing by accident. The thought made you giggle.

“But then I put it on his nose! Daddy show mommy the picture!” Dowon urged as if this was the most exciting thing that had ever happened in his life. Apart from his third birthday party or when Micha spoke her first word, it might just have been.

“God…” Mingyu winced as he looked at the series of pictures one more time before sending them to you. You started laughing as soon as you saw the first one. Your husband was just so adorable with the most offended expression on his face. You could tell Dowon must have been laughing as well from his huge grin and eyes scrunched shut tightly. As you flipped through the three photos eventually you landed on the last one. Mingyu had ditched the sullen expression and was smiling as widely as his son.

“Dowon really is your carbon-copy.” You pointed out with a grin.

“What is that?” Dowon asked curiously.

“Your mommy just means that when you grow up you’ll look as handsome as me.” Mingyu provided the definition, sneaking you a quick wink through the camera as he did it. You rolled your eyes at his constant attempts at flirting. It sometimes made you wonder just how much he enjoyed seeing you blush and smile from it. Even after almost 7 years together, he acted exactly the same, except you found him just a bit more goofy and a bit more lovable. Or maybe it was just some extra charm he had picked up after 5 years of marriage.

Mingyu advanced in putting Dowon to bed, getting him his favourite stuffed animal and doing a quick clean of his room as he listened to you tell him about your events and catching up with your relatives.

“Wanna say goodnight to mommy, baby?” Mingyu asked, sitting down on Dowon’s bed where he was cosily tucked in.

“I’m not a baby.” Dowon quickly corrected, eyebrows furrowed at his father as he found the nickname to be too childish. It was what everyone called the twins and he was infinitely bigger than them.

“You’re right, you’re a big boy now, aren’t you?” Mingyu cooed, ruffling his son’s hair lovingly. Despite the babyish tone that Mingyu said it in, Dowon still accepted the correction with a firm nod which made you giggle.

“Goodnight, Dowon. I love you. Be good to your siblings and daddy, okay?” You said softly, exchanging waves with your son who couldn’t hold in his yawns for any longer. Mingyu said his goodnights and turned off the overhead light, leaving on the small night light. He yawned himself as he walked back out to the living room and flopped on the couch, smiling at you.

“You tired, love?”

He nodded, “It was a long day.” He sighed, gathering his thoughts as he ran a hand through his messy hair, “I kept thinking… if I appreciate you enough or not. Everything you do, for me and the kids. I really realise just how much you hold this family together whenever you’re gone.” Mingyu muttered, eyes scanning over the messy living room as he spoke, driving his point home. “Just the little things like cleaning or taking one of the twins… I didn’t realise how much I depended on that. You know that I love and appreciate everything that you do, right?” He whispered the last part, starting to feel a little emotional. He fiddled with his wedding ring on his left ring finger, recalling just how lucky he was to be able to call someone like him his wife.

“Baby, I know. You don’t have to say it out loud, I know. Everytime you hug and kiss me, I know.” You reassured him, smiling at his small pout from your words.

“Now I really really want to kiss you.” He whined.

“Wait 5 more days, then you can kiss me as much as you want.”

He nodded dejectedly and then sighed, “I should let you go to sleep, you must be tired after the long car ride.”

You smiled, “Yeah, just a bit. You look more tired, though. Take care of yourself while I’m not around to make sure you do, okay?”

“I will. Goodnight, sweetheart! I miss you. And I love you so, so much” He waved goodbye and gave you a quick finger heart to which you gave a flying kiss in return.

“Goodnight! I love you too, baby.” You waved until Mingyu pressed the hang-up button and ended the call. 5 days was starting to feel more like 50 when you knew your family was waiting for you to return.

┈─ 𖧷 BOY’S AN UNEXPECTED ( AND UNWANTED ) VISITOR ﹕ CLÉO ANYA TORELL. set during THE CLÉOWON DATING SCANDAL. genre, angst. ( what’s the point of crying ? it was never even love .. ) featuring dowon, minho, hyunjin.

the song is halfway written when she gets a visitor. or rather, when she hears a scuffle begin to form in the hallway from her room, followed by heavy breathing and a pained groan.

cléo drops her pen to stumble out into the open space, brows furrowed in confusion. minho had let himself and hyunjin in with no problem about an hour earlier, shooing her off when she’d sheepishly mumbled something about wanting to finish a couple songs. hyunjin had walked her to her room even when she joked she didn’t need help finding it—but he’d stubbornly followed with nothing but a childish scowl and a shove to her arm.

the three don’t mention that she hasn’t participated in schedules for two months. the three of them don’t talk about the one member gap in their formation. the three of them don’t mention her mistakes. she was always making mistakes.

but she still doesn’t understand. last she saw of the two of them they were sitting comfortably in the parlor of the apartment she shared with xavier and moniqa, hyunjin engrossed in a new show and minho pretending he wasn’t as interested. she’d suspected they were only here to alternate watch over her, but the company had been appreciated anyway. she missed them.

her socks slide against the wooden floor in her haste to re-enter the parlor, wide eyed as her heart pounds. had another fan found her new apartment? the company was supposed to have taken care of that. this new place was supposed to be safer, a more monitored area, easier to spot unwanted visitors—

she turns the corner to meet dark eyes widen upon seeing her. her heart drops sixty feet underground.

minho has him pinned to the floor with an expression she’s never seen on him before, furious beyond words the more dowon keeps struggling and squirming. hyunjin doesn’t see her at first, but when he does he’s at her side before she can blink, an arm raised in front of her as a shield. his features hold no bit of the warmth and ease she’d seen just an hour ago. her head spins.

“how the fuck did he get in?” minho’s voice wafts in and out of her ears, and she grips hyunjin’s arm for stability. “why the hell did you come here?”

he still has the key she gave him. stupid, stupid, stupid girl. she swallows down a pathetic noise.

“i just—wanted to talk,” dowon grunts, hissing in pain when minho presses down on the arm twisted around his back in response. “didn’t think her fucking guard dogs would be—shit, can you relax?”

minho’s face goes stone still. cléo grips hyunjin’s arm even tighter.

“min,” her voice cracks, the first sound she made since she’d seen him. minho looks up after a moment and she shakes her head. he looks down at dowon, exhales sharply, but eventually releases him. dowon groans as the pressure leaves and shakes his arm out.

“fucking psychopath,” he grits, throwing a glower at the other man. minho doesn’t move. “anyway—”

cléo slaps him, hot and heavy across his cheek. his head turns with the force of the impact, and he chokes on his next exhale with a hiss. hyunjin stifles a shocked sound behind her.

silence hangs for a moment. her hand stings. her heartbeat thrums in her ears.

“i deserved that,” dowon starts slowly. minho scoffs lowly somewhere to her right. dowon turns and red blossoms across his face angrily. “i deserved that. i’m sorry.”

he takes a step towards her and she takes two back. her fists clench at her sides when he sighs with a hint of impatience.

“you’ve gotten your revenge,” dowon states matter-of-factly as if he were talking to a child. “do you need to slap me again? i’ll turn the other cheek,” he muses lowly, brown eyes almost black in the low light. “i don’t know what you want me to do. i’ve already apologized.”

“you used me,” cléo balks, breath caught in her throat. “you used me and you want me to forgive you because you came into my home without permission and said ‘i’m sorry’?”

she can’t help herself. she laughs, in complete and utter disbelief, as his nonchalance simmers into mild anger.

“the public finds out i’m the poster board for all the people you and your friends,” she spits, venom lacing her words harshly, “used and discarded like trash as you pleased, and you want me to forgive you? you want me to pretend like you didn’t almost ruin my life and act like nothing fucking happened?”

“cléo—”

”shut the fuck up!” her anger melds into something hysteric, fists shaking at her sides. the parlor is suddenly too small, the apartment is suddenly too small. she blinks, and hears a muffled crash of some sort. her gaze focuses on dowon again and he looks moderately unnerved. good. at least he was feeling a fraction of what she was.

“get out.” dowon frowns, brows furrowed in disbelief. “get the fuck out! get out!” he tries to approach her again, and this time, minho steps between the two of them with a stern glare.

“she said get out,” he starts, then tilts his head to the side. “or should i make you?”

dowon’s nose flares with an exaggerated exhale, gaze shifting between the three before stalking towards the door. but in a last minute act, he lunges for cléo the moment the other two turn to face her. she screams, acting purely on instinct.

her elbow rams into his face, knocking his face back before they stumble apart, hyunjin rushing to a trembling cléo while minho forcibly hauls dowon out of her apartment. the front door slams shut and cléo jumps from the impact, sliding down a wall and taking hyunjin down with her.

for a moment, the quiet in cléo’s apartment is a solid weight hanging on all of their shoulders, minho’s breathing being the only thing breaking the heavy silence. hyunjin rubs her arm soothingly, but doesn’t speak just yet. she rests her head on his shoulder and stares at the wall.

“took the trash out,” minho finally speaks, cracking a threadbare smile, which makes cléo huff a strained laugh and hyunjin pats her with a thin smile. “sorry you seem to attract the worst kind of people.”

”yeah.” cléo forces a laugh again, ignoring the burn beginning to spread across the bridge of her nose. she sniffles once, twice. “yeah, i just— i don’t know why—”

she bursts into tears, covering her mouth to muffle her sobs as her shoulders begin to shake. minho drops to a crouch in front of her, startled, and begins to apologize but she waves him off with a watery laugh. hyunjin wraps his arms around her as she covers her face, slumping back against the wall tiredly.

“i even gave him a key,” she hiccups with another laugh. “i gave him a key, i’m so stupid—”

”not stupid,” hyunjin chides her gently. “just… mislead. you fell in love with the persona he put on. that’s not your fault.”

minho nods slowly, settling against the wall on her other side. “it’s not your fault. love is blinding like that. besides,” he nudges her shoulder, “you’ve got us and your other friends. love comes in different forms and relationships. you don’t need a romantic one right now. and,”

he digs into his pocket and pulls out a set of keys, grinning widely when cléo’s eyes widen and hyunjin begins to laugh. “now he has no keys. too bad for him.”

hyunjin stares at minho in awe, which makes cléo crack a smile. “since when did you get so wise! “love is blinding like that’. who are you—”

“yah!” cléo laughs again, a real one this time, moving to rest her head on minho’s shoulder. “we were having a moment! fine, then. see if i give commentary again.”

Monthly likes/dislikes

👎🏻 Our Skyy2 - it’s a shame because except for The Eclipse and NLMG none of the episodes have been good. The ABAAB episodes have been surprisingly entertaining and they were better than the show itself but overall it’s obvious that this whole production was rushed and most of them did not put the required thought + effort into creating these stories; especially the MSP episodes had me shaking my head for so many reasons. Maybe the concept of 16 episodes for 8 couples in the span of 3 months was putting too much on their plates but it’s frustrating because it had a promising start. Hopefully this season marks the end of this project altogether.

⁽ LOST IN MY MEMORIES ⁾ ⁎ MBE ¸ the shorthand of memory bank entertainment, is a south korean company that specializes in music production. the company was founded in 2006 by jang minho, a successful producer who wanted more control in his music.

minho started off by debuting his first boy group in 2007, PASTPACE who was known for their vocals but were severely mismanaged by the company. they only released three albums before being shelved for the next big thing: BLOOSOOM. their first girl group debuted in 2009 with moderate success, especially with older male fans. the group faced multiple lineup changes throughout their four years of activity, and by their disbandment none of the original members were in the group.

in 2013 both groups terminated their contracts with memory bank and officially disbanded. a couple months later, the company faced several lawsuits from investors and businesses as they hadn't seen any profit or been paid by the company. multiple employees also came forward about not being paid, and so the investigation into the company began. memory bank temporarily shut down from 2013-2015, calling it a 'period of restructuring' although they had gone bankrupt.

by 2016, memory bank had been bought out by clockwork creative, a controversial decision since clockwork is one of the biggest entertainment companies in the country. the entire company was actually rehauled, and jang minho had been removed from the company since the lawsuits happened. eun jangmi, a young but rising employee at clockwork, was chosen as CEO for memory bank due to her creativity and strict work ethnic, along with her knowledge of the industry. within a year, the company was completely unrecognizable and suddenly the future seemed bright.

⁎ … … JANGMI EUN, also known by her former stage name EUNMI was born south korea, and the history of her family is unknown. jangmi was a member of the legendary girl group SUMONE'S GIRL and debuted when she was 14 under clockwork creative. jangmi was one of the most popular members in the group, but decided to go solo after their contract expired in 2015- however she never released any music.

she was approached by clockwork's ceo kim hyunwoo and offered a 'creative leadership position' which jangmi gladly accepted. she was made CEO of memory bank entertainment in late 2015, and despite being underestimated due to her age and inexperience, the company completely shifted into something new.

being a bit close in age to the new group LACY, jangmi is extremely close to the group and is often called their older sister. she is the first reason the member's list when recalling why they joined the disgraced company. ⋯ BIRTHDAY ⁙ july 5, 1994 ⋯ ZODIAC ⁙ cancer ⋯ BIRTHPLACE ⁙ seoul, south korea ⋯ HOMETOWN ⁙ unknown, seoul ⋯ NATIONALITY ⁙ korean ⋯ YEARS TRAINED ⁙ 3~ months ⋯ POSITIONS ⁙ main vocal, maknae ⋯ FACECLAIM ⁙ han sohee

⁎ … … DOWON KWAK, was born in south korea to an artistic family, both of his parents are accomplished musicians which gave him an instant foot into any musical pursuits. however, dowon's interest was more in illustration and directing. although he learned music to please his parents, he went to school for film and began working at various production companies before getting lured in by eun jangmi.

dowon is the creative director of everything memory bank's new group LACY does. some of his decisions have been controversial, but his vision is part of what has brought the group success. it is noted in interviews that the girls are close to dowon, but they do not get any creative freedom or say when it comes to their concepts, music, and other decisions. ⋯ BIRTHDAY ⁙ october 6, 1995 ⋯ ZODIAC ⁙ libra ⋯ BIRTHPLACE ⁙ seoul, south korea ⋯ HOMETOWN ⁙ gangnam , seoul ⋯ NATIONALITY ⁙ korean ⋯ FACECLAIM ⁙ lee dohyun

CHAPTER 4: "Chaos & Confusion"

| We Who Remain | Chapter List |

Previous | Next ------------------

I walked along the corridor to find the cafeteria. The sun rose with its rays hitting the trees causing the pathway to glow in between the cracks of the branches. The path there was peaceful. The green leaves danced while the tree held onto them. The sound of birds chirping filled the air. They were perched on the trees as they sang with one another. It was serene.

I soon heard the voices of people.

There were a good amount of civilians coming out of the dorm building. The campus slowly became lively with single individuals, small families, and elderly couples. It felt like a small town.

The bustling noise brought my attention to the building that appeared to be the cafeteria.

I followed the crowd and entered the building.

The place was well organized and had different levels of seatings. Although there were only a few stalls to get food, it appeared we could only get portions like every other safe haven canteen.

Upon standing in the line and grabbing my food, I began to wander the place in hopes of getting a good seat. There were stairs to go to the upper seating and I made my way up. There was still a good amount of people and it bothered me.

I know Dokyeom wants me to fit in, but where and who do I sit with?

I heard footsteps behind me and I quickly turned around. The man's eyes met mine. He froze for a moment and his eyes widened with fear. He brought his free hand up and pointed at me as if I was some kind of monster.

"You again!?" He yelled in shock.

I sighed. It was that guy with the lab coat. Jihoon was it?

"Oh, it's you," I say with a tilt of my head. I was not interested in causing another commotion.

Dokyeom says I have to be nice. I rolled my eyes at the thought of him. I heard Jihoon shuffle as he tried to go back down the stairs. It was like he was avoiding me.

I'm not too surprised to be honest. But I need to make a friend, and I don't have a lot of option.

"Hey," I call out to him. "Jihoon."

He froze in his spot once again. He was trying to sneak away but failed terribly. He slowly turned his head to look at me.

"That's your name right?" I ask him.

He slowly nodded his head with closed eyes. I can see fear run through him. As much as I felt bad for bothering him, he'll understand once I explain my situation.

"Yes... that's my name," he slowly says. "Why?"

I smiled upon hearing his response. "I'm sorry for what happened before. Can I sit with you?"

I tried to put my most innocent smile. I have to be friendly. At least until I can go find Dowon.

He squinted his eyes at. It was like he was trying to read my mind whether or not I was being sincere with my words.

Of course I was. I'm not that terrible of a person. Or so I believe.

I know I threatened him earlier, and he could have died- but I didn't pull the trigger...

Actually, that still doesn't make anything better-

"What if I say no?" He asks me.

I smiled to hide my disappointment.

What the hell am I supposed to say?

Oh yeah I'll find someone else to sit with?

We all know that won't happen. I embarrassed myself already earlier today. The least I could do is apologize to someone that I met earlier.

"Then I'll cry." I pouted at him. Men are weak to girls who cry. Well... that's what Dowon told me.

I watched as his face scrunched up in disgust at me. He was judging me as though there was something wrong with me.

I internally screamed seeing how he reacted the opposite of what I hoped for.

I slowly stopped pouting and realized how ridiculous I looked. I sighed before straightening myself out.

"Listen, okay?" I tell him. "Just this once, then I won't bother you ever again."

His expression slowly changed into a look of deep thought. He was deciding whether or not he should let me eat with him.

Yes. Please say yes.

He sighed before looking away from me. "Fine."

I grinned brightly with happiness. "I knew you were kind."

He frowned at me before rolling his eyes. "Don't make it weird."

"Whatever you say!" I pranced down the stairs and followed after him.

He sighed once more before leading the way. I followed him like a child. He knew this place fairly well. If it was me, I'd get lost.

"We're not eating at the cafeteria?" I asked him seeing how far we were getting away from everyone.

"No," he replied. "There's hardly any seating. That usually happens to late comers."

He gave me a look as if I was to blame. I closed my lips with an awkward smile.

That's probably because I caused a commotion earlier and slowed down his and everyone else's schedule...

"I apologize," I softly said.

In response he sighed. "It's whatever."

As we walked further away from the bustling section of the building, I realized some of the hallways looked the same with their bare walls and nameless doors but other ones had more color with bulletins and pamphlets.

It was strange.

"Hey Jihoon," I called for the man's attention.

"Yes?" He responded before looking over at me.

"Why are some hallways barren but others aren't?" I ask him.

He stopped for a moment before looking at the hallway we were in. He hummed in thought.

"Some of them are locked for private uses. If more people join the community, then they would be used as bedrooms," he replied. "Empty halls just mean nobody resides in the area. So wherever room people are stationed in are where the bulletins are usually at."

I raised a brow. "I thought there would be a more complicated answer."

He chuckled from my words. "Many people ask about that. I was here since the beginning of the plague. I know the place pretty well."

He smiled with pride. It was like he was showing off, but he quickly changed expressions and started glaring at me.

"I swear, if you try anything funny-"

Ah there's the suspicion of me.

"Relax," I interject. "I'll be long gone. So don't worry about me."

I don't plan on sticking around. Besides, I doubt anyone would want me here other than Dokyeom.

I don't really have anyone to go home to anyways...

The thought of my parents ran through my head along the possible situations my sister could be in right now while I stroll in this safe building. Who knows what trouble she could be in.

I realized how quiet it got and saw Jihoon staring at me. It was like he wanted to ask me something, but he hesitated to do so.

I didn't bother asking what's on his mind- or rather, I didn't think I should. I don't plan on getting attached to him or getting to know him. Just like everyone else in the world, I know this will all be temporary until I find somewhere else to go.

Jihoon opened the door to what seemed to be a small office with a large window that took over one side of the wall. There was a white bed and a few other things that seemed like it belonged to a laboratory.

"Is this your office?" I ask him.

"Yeah," he replied before sitting down in his office chair. The chair moved as he slid in causing the wheels to rumble.

He pulled out a stool from his side and motioned me to sit with him.

The place was rather well organized, even his desk was clean. I sat in the stool and placed my food next to him.

There was an awkward silence between us as I gazed at everything in his office. He had books neatly stacked on his desk next to the wall along with notebooks and journals.

He seemed to be working on something. I heard him pick up his metal chopsticks with a clank effect upon them hitting each other.

"Are you going to eat or just stare?" He asked me before putting his hands in prayer.

He was getting ready to say his thanks for the food. I quickly copied him upon realizing my rude table manners. We soon started eating after. There was a moment of silence while we ate before he decided to speak.

"There's a rumor going around that you're Staff Sergeant Lee's lover."

I almost spat out my food.

What. The. Fuck.

"HUH?" I said as I tried to stop myself from choking. "Hell no!"

He stared at me with wide eyes. He began to laugh seeing my reaction.

"Ah," he said with an amused smile. "I guess that's wrong then."

I raised a brow at him as I wiped my face with a napkin. I sighed before debating whether or not I should tell him that he's in love with my sister, but I held my tongue.

"Let's just say, he's like an older brother to me," I explain to him. "I've known him for awhile so he takes care of me like family."

Jihoon nodded his head before taking a sip from his canteen.

"Family, huh?" He repeated after me.

I nodded my head slowly as I finished my food. He stared at me for a moment before looking at the object in his hand.

"Where's your canteen?" He asks me.

"My canteen?" I raised a brow before staring at the one in his hand. "Oh, that."

I hummed in thought as I remembered how I left it outside my room.

"I left it outside my bedroom," I tell him before swinging my feet above the ground. "Why?"

He gave me a questionable look. "I got those for you, you know?"

I stared at him with wide eyes before judging him. "Oh, so you're the one sneaking around the building. I have you know, I don't accept things from strangers."

He scoffed at me.

"Listen, everyone gets those necessities." It was like he was scolding me. "I have you know, I woke up earlier than I usually do because of orders."

Orders? I tilted my head at him.

"Orders from who?" I dare ask. "Staff Sergeant Lee?"

He frowned at me. "Who else would it be?"

I scrunched my face. It would make sense that it was Dokyeom, but even so, I don't particularly care.

"I'll be fine without it," I mutter. "I'll find something else to use."

I began to put my trash together while Jihoon stared at me perplexed.

"You're really on edge, aren't you?" He suddenly says.

His voice came out rather confused instead of annoyed. It was like he was trying to read me, but he couldn't.

"Why wouldn't I be? The world is screwed over and I don't have anyone to really rely on." I say with low eyes. I picked at the stains on my bowl with my chopstick.

I didn't bother looking at him. I didn't like talking about my feelings, especially not towards a person I just met and almost shot.

I heard him move in his chair and I turned to look at him. He seemed to be thinking of something while he looked at me.

"I'll get you a new set tomorrow if that makes you feel better," his voice came out rather sympathetic. "I'll sanitize it and everything so you don't have to be so anxious."

I squinted my eyes at him. Was he feeling pity towards me?

I sighed. If this was his way of trying to form some kind of acquaintance between us then so be it. I wasn't entirely against the idea of knowing someone will go through the hassle of getting me something thoroughly cleaned.

I began to feel bad.

I leaned my head on my hand before staring at this man that could have died earlier today.

"I'd appreciate that Jihoon," I tell him.

He rolled his eyes at me. "Don't make it weird."

I laughed at his comment. "I'm not. Just being grateful that's all."

He shook his head at me with amusement, but before he could speak, I heard a scream.

It was faint but I could hear it.

My ears perked up and I got off the stool. I reached for my gun, but what I felt was a different object. I looked down and remember how Dokyeom took my handgun and gave me a knife as replacement.

I narrowed my brows.

"Shit," I muttered.

Jihoon soon stood up. "What's up with you?"

I hushed him with a hand towards him to stay quiet. He tried to speak again, but I hushed him once more, signaling something was going on. There was a moment of silence.

It was almost inaudible, but I heard it.

There it was.

A snarl with a follow of a bang.

It sounded like it was hitting a door.

I turned to look at Jihoon and he stood there with his eyes wide. He must have heard it too.

"Stay here," I tell him.

"You're going to check it out?" He said with surprise. "Are you crazy? We should tell the guards!"

He went to grab his radio off his coat pocket.

"You can do that," I tell him while I heard him switch stations on the device. "Just stay here, I'm checking it out."

Before he could protest, I left the room with a shut of the door. I was careful not to make too much noise as I followed the sound.

It was coming from the hallway we were just at. The barren hallway where no one is supposed to reside.

I squinted my eyes as I tread lightly. I had to be careful. Who knows what's going on in that room.

I looked down at the floor and saw no blood, but the closer I got to the room, the louder I heard muffling with the follow of clamping of teeth.

Jihoon said the door was supposed to be locked... Nobody should be inside there.

I slowly turned to the knob to see if it was true, and it wouldn't budge. I frowned. I heard another bang and I backed away from the door.

"Are you crazy?"

I turned to see the man who followed after me. He was light on his feet. He made little noise and was carefully whispering to me in fear of what could happen.

"I told you to stay at your office," I whisper back.

He glared at me. "I may be a researcher, but I can't leave a woman to defend herself."

I narrowed my brows at him. "Stop playing hero and go back."

The snarls soon got louder with a follow of a bang. He backed up while I took out my knife.

"Go back, Jihoon," I tell him once more.

He stared at me with detest. He was certainly against my words.

"Atleast tell me your name before you get yourself killed," he quickly says.

I looked over at him. Was he being serious?

"How the hell do you not know my name?" I say with a hint of confusion.

He looked at me with full offense. "Nobody told me your name." He tried to keep his voice low. "They just referred you as the young lady stationed in room 4-7 they saved last night."

Is he fucking for real?

I sighed. I don't have time for this.

"Noe Jaewon," I quickly say. "My name is Noe Jaewon. Now just go, Jihoon."

He stood there for a moment before looking at me with shock. He didn't say anything before nodding his head. I didn't question his reaction since I had more important matters to deal with.

I turned to look back at the door that suddenly seemed quiet.

The silence was eerie. I didn't like it.

I didn't like it one bit.

The door began to bang repeatedly. It was trying to break the door down.

Bang.

Jihoon stood next to me as if he felt frozen in place. I couldn't speak nor could he. It was like we were waiting for the inevitable. If we ran now, our backs would be vulnerable to that thing.

Silence.

It stopped. Or so I hoped.

The door flew open and I quickly pushed Jihoon out of the way before jumping the opposite direction. He fell to the ground while I landed on my feet. I was crouched to the floor when my eyes met the beast.

It looked human, but it also didn't.

It huffed and puffed as if it just turned. Behind the monster laid a woman in a lab coat whose body was mauled into pieces. The scent of blood reeked the air with the splatter of blood everywhere.

Glass was shattered through the window with the follow of blood stains. I could only imagine what happened to the poor woman. How she got dragged into the room before getting killed inside.

The monster twisted its head as it looked at me before turning to Jihoon who was struggling to get back on his feet.

It was analyzing us. It was like it had some sense of consciousness or control over him. I watched its every move as I raised my knife to it. Whatever it was planning, I had to be ready for it.

It snapped its head up as if it was in a trance before letting out a hellish screech. It was ready to lunge at Jihoon.

"JIHOON RUN!" I yell.

I watched as the man shuffled to his feet before running as fast as he can. His steps were light, and the beast ran after him.

I dashed as fast as I can as I chased the mutant. It wasn't an evolved so it was much slower than the others, but its speed was still fast.

"SHIT," I cursed under my breath.

I followed them down the twist and turns of the hallway, and I could hear Jihoon telling the civilians to run the moment a person shows up in view.

Their retreating figures weren't fast and some stumbled to the floor. I felt fear running through me of what could happen to them.

Once the beast reached them with their shaking bodies, I expected the worst.

But nothing happened.

It continued to chase Jihoon as if nobody else mattered. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Mutants attack any human they see, but this one- what's wrong with it? Why was it acting different?

I ran past the scared civilians as I got closer to the beast.

I don't know what the fuck was going on, but I knew one thing.

Whatever this mutant was up to- was not normal.

I took out my knife and jumped on its back. I pierced the metal into its neck in hopes to slow it down, but atlas, it kept going. I held on to it in hopes of not letting go.

"Why the fuck aren't you slowing down!?" I curse at the beast who ignored me.

It stumbled for only a moment when I jumped on it before it continued to target Jihoon.

I deepened my knife in hopes of wounding the thing, but it was acting as if it was numb to the pain. I don't understand why it didn't hurt. The neck and brain are its weak points, so why the fuck was it acting as if it was immune?

Soon, Jihoon ended up at the cafeteria were everyone was at. I could only assume he was avoiding dead ends which lead him back to where we once were.

I gritted my teeth in fear of what was to come.

The doors flew open by the beast's strength before it threw me to the ground. My knife flew out of its neck and blood splattered everywhere.

I watched the civilians freeze upon seeing us. There was a moment of realization as they witnessed what was happening. Jihoon stared at the beast as he tried to catch his breath. He stood in front of the seated civilians who began to panic.

Their screams filled the air as they began to run for their life.

I picked up my knife and lunged at the beast again. I was aiming for its head. Suddenly it snapped its head at me. Its head went backwards before turning its body to me. I felt a chill run down my spine upon feeling its hand on my forearm.

It stopped me from stabbing it, and I couldn't move from its grip.

It opened its jaws before closing it. The sound of clamping began as it repeated the action. It was threatening me.

I quickly dropped my knife and used my free hand to catch it before trying to stab it with my left hand. I had to stop it from biting me.

It was a direct hit to the neck once again, but it didn't wince in pain. Rather, it looked at me as if nothing happened. As if the blood he lost was nothing to it.

Then it hit me.

It was regenerated itself.

The wound on the neck I once punctured was healed like it was never there. I felt a chill run down my spine and a rush of fear take over me.

I needed my gun to kill this thing, but I didn't have it.

I didn't have anything to that was fast enough and durable enough to kill it.

It grabbed my free arm with its other hand before trying to bite me. It was aiming for my arms. My adrenaline rush kicked in. I kicked the thing away from me as I pulled my arms from its grasps.

It stumbled backwards with my knife still in its neck. My heart raced as the mutant snarled at me. I grabbed a knife from one of the tables before getting ready for it its attack.

"Come at me you stupid fuck," I mutter under my breath.

It ran straight at me and was ready to kill the thing. The moment it tried to reach me, I swiftly moved to the side and got behind it.

In one quick movement, I kicked it behind its knee causing the monster to fall. I swung my knife and it pierced its head which caused it to screech.

I crouched down on top of its back to hold it down just in case it tried to escape. I let the knife sink deep within its skull with a crack heard forming once puncturing its bone.

Then I hit it- the brain.

It's screeching turned into dreadful incoherent sounds as though it was in pain.

Then it stopped moving.

It got quiet.

I felt my hand shake as I yanked the metal out of its skull. Blood gushed out and my knife dripped with blood.

The scent of its tainted spilled organs began to sit in my nose before me realizing how much blood I got on me not from just stabbing its head, but from the overall chaos that just happened.

I panted as I tried to calm my nerves. I got off the thing, and I felt my legs get weak from the after effects of my adrenaline.

I stumbled towards one of the nearest tables before settling in a chair. My hands and legs shook vigorously as the beast's blood dried on my clothes, face, and hands.

My eyes remained on the corpse with my knife still ready for it to get up. I heard soldiers and guards arrive to the scene, but I didn't bother looking at them.

I felt everyone's eyes on me. Those who witnesses the event and those who just arrived.

But I didn't care.

What bothered me the most was how this thing entered this place. How this supposedly tight security safe haven was supposed to be one of the best.

I was mad, but I was also perplexed.

How did nobody see this thing enter this place?

And why did it only target Jihoon?

I heard someone call my name, but I remained still. I had too much on my mind and my heart was racing too fast for me to respond to him.

I felt their presence come next to me, but I couldn't look at them.

"How the hell did it get in here?" I mutter.

I sat on the white bed. Through the window, I could see Dokyeom outside talking to a man who wore a bulletproof vest. The man seemed to be in high in position with the way the guards stayed close to his side even when he entered the cafeteria after I killed the thing.

I heard Jihoon on the other side of the door and I could hear his discussion with one of the female doctors.

"I can't believe that happened," I heard her say. "Taemi is really gone..."

There was a moment of silence before Jihoon spoke.

"I can't believe it either, Soyeon," he mutters. "Staff Sergeant Lee and Seungcheol are discussing what we should do next... Everyone is on edge... I don't understand how that thing could even come in here."

I heard their footsteps come closer to the door and I watched as the woman peeked her head inside to look at me.

"Hey," she greets me. "We'll have that blood sample of yours tested to make sure you aren't carrying the plague, okay?"

I nodded my head. "Okay."

She took a blood sample off my finger for safety precautions. Tainted blood on me could have entered my system and they have to make sure I won't turn into those mutants.

She slowly nodded her head at me before pointing. "For the time being, we'll have to leave you here with the door locked because of regulations. If you need to shower there's a bathroom over there, okay?"

She was quarantining me from everyone else just as expected. Jihoon then took her place so he can talk to me.

"Are you doing okay, Jaewon?" He asks me.

I slowly nodded my head. I was still in the process of getting over what happened. The after effects were hitting me while I tried to get over it.

I couldn't get it out of my mind how this incident was very similar to what happened to the other safe haven my parents resided in.

"Hey, Jihoon," I call for his attention.

"Yes? What's up?" He asked with wonder.

Was it too much to ask him for a favor? I bit my lip in hopes he would agree to do so.

"You're a researcher, right?" I asked in remembrance of how he introduced himself.

He nodded his head with confusion on where I was going with this.

"If it's too much to ask- can you do me a favor?" I say with low eyes.

"If it involves getting you out of this room, I can't do that," He tells me.

It was like he knew me pretty well after a few hours of being with me, but he didn't know me well enough.

I shook my head. "No, it's not that."

He raised a brow in anticipation of what I may say.

"If it's possible- can you get a sample of that mutant from earlier?" I ask him.

He seemed a bit surprised from my request, but he also didn't seem to be against the idea.

"Do you want me to do some research on the subject?" He asked me. "I can. I just need permission from Staff Sergeant Lee and Seungcheol."

I looked outside to see the two men who were talking were gone from the perimeter. They seemed to have gone elsewhere while security roamed the area.

Everyone had to be scared of what happened.

"If you can, Jihoon- that'd be great," I tell him.

"Okay," I heard him say. "Go rest, and I'll tell you what I know by tomorrow."

The door then shut and I was left alone in the room. I could hear the door lock with the follow of Jihoon and Soyeon's footsteps getting further from me.

Then there was silence. All I could hear was the sound of my breathing and the ticking of the clock that hung on the wall.

It was noon and so much happened already.

I should shower, then I'll rest. So much for fitting in. I made a commotion twice today. I could only imagine what everyone is thinking.

Escort.

Would I even become escort with these conditions?

"Dowon, don't die yet. No, not yet. I'll find you," I mutter to myself.

My sister is still out there. I have to leave this place once the opportunity comes.

I grabbed the towel and spare clothes left for me on the table before making my way to the bathroom.

I need to clear my mind and clean this gunk off me. Maybe I'll feel better by then.

I woke up to the sound of what appeared to be coming from the doorway. I stared at the ceiling above me that wasn't as bright as it was before. From the looks of it, the sun was setting. I looked at the clock that kept ticking to see the time.

6:32 pm

I slept that long? Was I that tired?

I got off the bed and my body began to feel groggy. That nap didn't make me feel any better. My mind felt clouded and my legs felt tired.

I dragged my feet to the doorway and tried to open it.

It was locked.

I sighed. Of course it's locked. I'm quarantined.

I was trying to remember what happened before I fell asleep since I still felt tired. The knocking began again and I could clearly hear its coming from the other side of the door.

"Yes? What do you want?" My voice came out rather tired and annoyed.

No response.

I sighed. "Listen, I'm not trying to get into any more trouble. I already did enough today."

I felt something come from underneath the door and it hit my feet. I looked down as I analyzed the object. I crouched down while rubbing my eyes to see what it was.

Paper? A written note?

--------- This wasn't an accident. Don't tell them what you know. - X ---------

I narrowed my brows upon reading the paper.

What the hell?

Was this person telling the truth or were they messing with me?

"Hey," I softly whispered. "Who the hell are you?"

Silence.

I shook the doorknob but it remained in place. Whoever was on the other side was making sure I wouldn't know their identity. I didn't hear footsteps, though. Was this person still here?

I then heard footsteps, but they weren't going away. They were getting closer to the door.

The doorknob then clicked.

I stepped back.

Were they unlocking the door for me?

My eyes met another pair of orbs, but it wasn't who I expected.

"Oh, you're awake?" Seoyeon said with surprise. "You missed lunch."

"Uh... yeah? Sorry about that." I said confused by her words. "Were you the one knocking on my door?"

She had a puzzled expression before turning around to see if there was anyone else nearby. She seemed taken back from my question.

"No? Did someone try to talk to you?" she asked me.

I widened my eyes from her response before hiding the note in my pocket.

"Oh, maybe I was hearing things then?" I scratched the back of my head.

I couldn't tell her what happened, and if I did who knows how she'd react. I have to pretend nothing occurred. My gut was telling me to listen to the note- it felt like if I didn't, things wouldn't go well for me.

Soyeon raised a brow. "You're probably getting paranoid. You'll be safe in here, okay? Let me go get you your dinner."

I watched as she shut the door before scurrying off to who knows where.

I looked back down at my pocket before pulling out the note.

"Who the hell gave this to me then?"

Jealous Yeosang

An ATEEZ fanfic by AbsentCaryatid

Inspired by Yeosang's Universe TMT quiz answer that he would rather have ATINY look at another idol than catch them going to another idol's concert.

1.2K words, Content note: gender neutral reader, rated all ages, the jealousy is teasing only

It was a cozy night in with your boyfriend over. Given Yeosang's fame as a member of ATEEZ, most of your dates were quiet evenings at your place or his and tonight was no exception. After the takeout meal he had arrived with was demolished, you ended up cuddled on the couch watching television together. Revisiting a favorite series on Netflix, you had brought up the first episode of Rookie Historian Goo Hae-ryung to introduce Yeosang to the series.

You thought he was getting into the show the way he was watching so intently but you were missing the way your devoted partner kept a close eye on your reaction every time the character Prince Dowon showed up on the screen. Finally he could keep it in no longer and paused the video. “That actor is Cha Eunwoo. I recognize him from the group Astro.”

“You are right,” you agreed. “I really like him....”

Yeosang cut you off with a snort. “So you have a thing for the visual in each group? He is taller than me and a model too.” His tone was taunting, but the slump of his shoulders hinted that an insecurity was exposed.

“Are you jealous?” Turning on the couch to face him, you caressed his cheek gently. “As I was saying, I really like him paired with Shin Se-kyung as Goo Hae-ryung. They make a great couple. Seeing them on screen makes me think of us and how much I love you.”

He visibly relaxed, but still looked stressed. “You are not just waiting to move on to him if you get the chance?”

You drew back in shock. “Yeosang, I could never. There is nobody for me but you.” He seemed to recover further until you made an addition. “Sure Eunwoo is handsome, and I like to look at him, but that is all. Okay, maybe I'd also go see Astro in concert.”

Yeosang pretended to be scandalized. “Not only do I expect loyalty as my partner, but as an ATINY as well.”

Wrapping your arms around him you bestowed a deep kiss then drew back. “As a couple we are exclusive, Yeosang, but as a music listener I can make no promises. ATEEZ will always be my ultimate group, but my heart has room for many musicians. You have seen my album collection after all.”

As someone who benefited from the occasional raiding of your extensive music library, Yeosang agreed it was okay to love many groups. Settling back into the cushions once more, you leaned against each other and resumed the series, liking it so much he binged three episodes before falling asleep snuggled into your side. Multiple dates went on like this until sighing together at the expected happy ending for the lovers in the story.

Such frequent time in close contact on the couch had been good to build up a reserve of loving touch to get you through time apart once Yeosang was on tour with ATEEZ. While the video calls and messages left on your phone were meaningful, you still needed ways to distract yourself from missing your adored boyfriend.

The best idea you came upon was to go to an Astro concert. Originally you had hoped to go with Yeosang when your boyfriend was back from overseas tomorrow, but that date was sold out before you could get tickets. While tonight's entertainment had been fun, it was not as enjoyable without your partner there at your side.

Show now over, you sauntered to the bus stop humming your favorite tune from the evening. Your way was lit by the white light stick with vivid purple star declaring yourself an Astro fan. You held it aloft, swaying, as you relived highlights of the performance.

“Hey ATINY,” you heard a very familiar voice call out. Looking up, you saw Yeosang lowering the backseat passenger window as one of the KQ Entertainment sedans drove by and your face broke out in the largest grin. Opening the door, he pulled you into the vehicle.

Surprised by Yeosang's presence when he was not due home yet, you kissed him all over after being apart for so long. Once he could get a moment to breathe, he revealed that he caught an earlier flight home because he missed you so much. “I just left the airport headed to the dorm and we passed by the concert hall lit up for Astro. To see my own beloved partner walking down the street waving that group's light stick while I am supposedly still out of the country was hard to take.”

Professional as he was most of the time, the manager at the wheel was still heard to laugh as Yeosang mock berated you for going to see a concert that was not ATEEZ.

“It was one thing to have you looking at Eunwoo on screen, that I could endure. But to go to see him live on stage? Cheating on me like that is unforgivable!”

The way you laughed in return let Yeosang know you understood he was only joking. A truly jealous and controlling partner would have been ditched by you in an instant. Instead you both recognized his reaction for what it really was. Envy. Yeosang would have liked being at the concert too if he had been available. Even with his own tour stories to tell, he listened politely as you excitedly recounted everything you enjoyed about the show you had been caught headed home from.

“Sounds like you liked it a lot. Does that mean you wouldn't mind going again tomorrow night as my date?” Your look of joy gave Yeosang the answer he was hoping for. “You have sacrificed a lot for my fame and while I know you enjoy our evenings at my dorm or your place, I wanted to take you out on a real date and that's why I came back on the night flight instead of with the rest of the guys tomorrow. We have dinner reserved at that nice place you have been wanting to try, then front row seats for the second day of Astro's performance.”

This was one of the many reasons you adored Yeosang. There was so much to him beyond a stunning face and witty commentary. He listened to what you liked and remembered that information to put it to use making you happy. That thoughtfulness went a long way with you because it was your love language too.

The next night as you sat side by side, you took note Yeosang knew all the fanchants by heart. After the fantastic meal he had gifted you the latest version of the Astro light stick so tonight he borrowed your older model and you bobbed them in time to the music. Yeosang was not even bothered when Eunwoo himself blew a kiss in your direction from the stage, especially not when you reacted by squeezing his own hand tighter, landing a kiss to Yeosang's cheek, and thanking him yet again for such a perfectly planned date with the only man you loved.
