One.
Two.
Three.
Y/n carefully stepped over the cracks in the pavement, feet twisting and turning between each crack in the cement with a precise, unbroken focus. The air was cool, charged; it had been raining earlier, and the earth was covered in a light, sprinkled-wet sheen, the smell of petrichor hanging in the air.
Y/n kicked up leaves as she went, dodging the little puddles and breathing in the scent of the trees. It made her feel at least a little bit more alive; a lot more alive than she'd been feeling for a long time.
Y/n slowed to a walk, her momentary happiness fading. Viciously kicking aside a wet leaf into a murky puddle, she walked onwards, trudging a little slower than she had before. Her face set itself in a neutral, unremarkable expression.
She narrowly dodged a group of teen boys loitering outside the school gates, their ties and shirts untucked and undone; Y/n huffed ruefully as a rather disciplinary teacher stormed past her, scattering the boys and handing out detentions for uniform misconduct. Her shoulders relaxed a tiny bit; she never wore her uniform wrong, but the fear of being somehow caught out always shook her.
Stepping into the school and wiping her shoes rather unenthusiastically on the large mat, Y/n headed to her locker, weaving past huddles of girls and students running down the hallways. The corridors were rife with laughing and shouting, and Y/n found herself wondering how such energy could be mustered at the raw hour of a nine o'clock Monday morning.
Narrowly dodging a flying basketball without so much as blinking, Y/n opened her locker, mechanically depositing her books into the rack and taking her books for the first few classes of the morning. Every action felt forced and mundane, her muscles aching for no particular reason. A pretty, feminine voice snapped her out of her thoughts.
"Y/n, hey!"
Y/n turned, shutting her locker, slipping the lock back on. She looked up as her friend, Yeji, waved from a short distance away, her sleek, dark hair impeccably styled. As always.
Leaning on her shoulder, Yeji grinned, poking Y/n's cheek just as Ha-eun walked up, clutching a book to her chest with the poise of a ballerina.
"How was your weekend~?" Yeji drawled playfully, sagging onto Y/n. She caught a whiff of her friend's perfume; fruity and light. Yeji had always insisted it was the best scent, especially for 'attracting guys', but Y/n didn't have the heart to tell her she smelt more like a vape.
"It was good," she said monotonely.
Ha-eun tilted her head, brown hair plaited back neatly into a ponytail. Her voice was soft.
"Surely you must have done something, Y/n."
"Yeah," Yeji added.
Y/n shook her head, stepping out from Yeji's leaning. She turned to face both her friends, straightening her dark blazer.
A burst of excited chattering rose from behind them, and Yeji and Ha-eun immediately turned their heads, smiles lighting up on their face.
Sangmi.
The most popular girl in the grade; pretty, smart, helpful, a teacher's dream student. Pretty much everyone knew her.
They all love her too, Y/n thought guiltily. She quite liked Sangmi; she was kind, and a lot of fun to be around, but Y/n couldn't help the howling envy within her heart.
She was just so normal.
Sangmi joined the group, chattering excitedly and sharing her weekend adventures she'd shared with her mom; going to a cafe together, and then later getting their nails done; she'd gone out with a group of girls and studied with them the following day.
Y/n couldn't help the bubble of jealousy that rose up within her and she muttered a halfhearted excuse to Ha-eun before walking away.
Turning a corner, she ran directly into someone, who dropped their books. Apologising, she bent down and began picking them up. Brushing off the cover of a textbook, she looked up at the person.
The boy blinked back at her, slitted, dark eyes, long hair falling into his eyes, a pretty shade of dark brown. He was kind of cute, and Y/n knew who he was, though she couldn't put a name to the face.
"Sorry," she said quietly.
The boy shook his head vehemently, smiling as he took the textbook from her. His voice was velvety.
"My bad. Should have seen where I was going."
Y/n nodded politely and moved past him, walking a little faster to her form class.
Tap tap tap tap tap-
Y/n's pencil drummed against her knuckles; staring out the window, she sighed tiredly and glanced down at her notes. The teacher had been going on for about half an hour now with no sign of stopping.
Her mind absentmindedly drifted back to the boy she'd bumped into earlier, recalling his features. He seemed quite happy, and bright. She'd seen him playing basketball a few times on the courts, always smiling and high-fiving his teammates. She was pretty sure he was on the school team too. Dully wishing she could come across as enthusiastic as he did, Y/n sighed again.
"Alright, everyone," her teacher called. "Get into groups of four, and start working through the questions in chapter three."
Y/n looked to Yeji expectantly just as her friend glanced back at her apologetically, already settling into a group with Sangmi, Ha-eun, and Aeri, another girl from their friend group. A mild feeling of hurt settled into Y/n's gut, replaced by a feeling of panic.
Glancing across the classroom, she stiffly got up and sat with a pair of girls. The popular type, too; their hair was dyed harshly, their lash extensions fluttering, and jaws smacking with gum. Y/n coiled back a tiny bit, the irritating sound ticking her off.
One of the blonde girls whined. "Can't you group with someone else?"
The other nodded dumbly, her mismatched, caked-on foundation crinkling as she frowned at Y/n.
"Um, I can't. Sorry," she finished quietly. "There's no one else to group with."
The two girls glanced at each other. Y/n heard a whisper of 'outcast' and fought the nausea rising in her gut.
Someone sat down next to her, stretching out forearms across the desk. Y/n blinked in surprise. It was the boy she'd run into earlier.
"Don't be mean," he quipped playfully at them. "She can work with us."
"Sorry, Hyunjin," one of the girls pouted. Y/n fought the new urge to throw up at their fake cuteness act.
It came as no surprise; Hwang Hyunjin was one of the most popular boys in the school. Young, handsome, talented, popular; he was the envy of many of the boys in the grade. Most of the girls liked him too, even popular, pretty Sangmi quietly admitting to her once that she thought Hyunjin was kind of cute.
Not that Y/n wholeheartedly disagreed. But she didn't agree that much either. Popular, sporty boys were always trouble.
The trouble spoke. "Y/n, can I borrow a pen, please? I kinda forgot my stuff."
Y/n blinked at him, expression betraying a hint of disapproval. "Do you just show up to classes with no stuff?"
Hyunjin chuckled, unfazed. "Yep."
Sighing, Y/n reached into the pocket of her blazer and drew out a ballpoint, handing it to him. The two blonde girls gazed on disapprovingly, glaring jealously at Y/n, who ignored it.
Hyunjin just smiled to himself and began dividing up the classwork.
The bell went off with a abrasive, repetitive ringing. The students began packing up noisily, chattering and laughing, some with their stuff already eagerly packed and ready to go.
Y/n handed her portion of the group project to her teacher, thanking him quietly before moving back to her desk and slipping her pens back into her case. The two blonde girls whispered and side-eyed her as they passed, one of them bumping her shoulder roughly as they left.
The lesson had gone smoothly enough, except for the fact that most of the class's eyes had been on her.
Mainly because of Hyunjin.
He kept asking for help, asking how to spell words, asking how to explain this and that on the worksheet, and when Y/n had rather grumpily quipped him for his inquiries, he had responded with a cheeky smile and an honest answer.
Because you're really smart, Y/n!
I'm not really, she thought to herself self-deprecatingly. Sangmi and Ha-eun are far smarter than I am.
"Hey, Y/n."
Y/n looked up, slipping her case inside her bag. Hyunjin stood in front of her, his tie slightly undone, eyes crinkled with that smile that somehow permanently graced his angelic features.
She responded so quietly she was sure he wouldn't hear. "Yeah?"
Hyunjin tilted his head. "Is it okay if I keep this pen for my next few classes? I'll give it back, I promise."
Y/n's gaze flitted to his long, slender hand, the ballpoint held elegantly between them. She narrowed her eyes, sighing.
"Fine, but don't lose it."
Hyunjin nodded eagerly before turning away with a quick smile.
"Kay. I won't. See you later!"
Y/n let out a tiny 'bye' in response, hauling her bag onto her shoulder.
Hyunjin walked casually down the hallway, effortlessly slipping between throngs of students with ease. His hands were shoved in his pockets, Y/n's pen clutched between his slender figures as he moved to enter his next class. He was surprised she'd let him borrow it; most people thought she was quite intense and cold, some thought her rather mean. Hyunjin thought she was probably just lonely.
Something like that, he thought. A hint of empathy twinged at his heartstrings. Nevertheless, he was quite pleased with himself; the lie about 'forgetting all of his stuff' had somehow unbelievably fooled her.
One slender hand came down, tucking his pencil case deeper into his bag.
He couldn't believe the lie had worked.

pairing: yang jeongin x reader
summary: you come home to jeongin after a long, exhausting day
genre: fluff, idol! au, comfort, soft innie, reader had a tough day, the snakes are just a metaphor i promise
a/n: this is super rushed. divider by @atsubie
You trudge down the pavement, brushing past pedestrians and groups of chattering students. A man with his phone to his ear shoves roughly past you and you sway where you're standing, a feeling of hopelessness settling into your stomach like a dark, writhing snake.
These past few weeks have been horrible.
First, one of your close friends at work told you that some of the other coworkers have been spreading nasty rumours about you. You spilled your drink this morning on the way to the building and had to run back and change quickly.
Then when you did show up, your boss shouted at you for being tardy in front of your entire division. You elected to work a couple more hours as compensation, and Jeongin is actually at home for once instead of at the company, so you missed out on an evening with him.
You had texted him earlier in the day, saying that you couldn't come home, and he'd called you. He hadn't minded, his tone casual and slightly teasing as per normal, but you knew him well enough to know he was disappointed at not getting to finally spend some time together.
The coiling snake of guilt, shame, and exhaustion in your stomach has been writhing all week long, and honestly, you're just fed up. Pressing a hand to your midriff, you sigh and pick up the pace, weaving between people, muttering sorry and my bad without so much as a second glance.
You shove the door open and run directly into Jeongin with an oof. His hoodie pillows your face in a refreshing wave of fading cologne and fresh linen. You groan and stand there, sagging into him, the door still flung open in the wake of your frustration.
Jeongin blinks down at you, seemingly unsurprised. He wraps his long, firm arms around you, letting you lean against his chest. It's so warm and so comforting it brings tears to your eyes.
"Hi," he murmurs. "Long day?"
You nod mutely, face still shoved into his hoodie.
Jeongin chuckles, picking you up with little effort and carrying you over to the couch. There's a movie playing. He must have been watching it while waiting for you to come home, and your heart twinges guiltily for having made him wait.
"Innie," you whisper tiredly. "It's so late, why aren't you asleep?"
He's kneeling in front of you, gently undoing the buttons of your shirt so you can breathe, then slipping off your socks and shoes. The look of caring focus on his face doesn't go unnoticed in your current overemotional state. When he finally speaks, Jeongin's voice is soft, gentle, firm.
"You know I can't sleep without you, and I didn't want you coming home to silence."
You nod, unable to do anything.
"Besides," he continues, "You always wait up for me, even when I spend hours and hours at the company for dance practices."
He moves to sit beside you, tugging you gently into a side hug, the solidness of his chest against your chest a comforting anchor. You sit like that for a while, the movie muted and faint in the background.
Jeongin's presence is so warm, so comforting, that all you can do is close tired, strained eyes and lean into him further, inhaling his scent, relishing the solid weight of his arm around you. The burden finally lifts and the sharp, dull tension behind your eyes begins to dissolve, leaving you feel more relaxed and cosy than you've felt in a long time.
The coiling snake in your gut settles and disappears.
a/n: no snakes were harmed in the making of this fic
pairing: hwang hyunjin x reader
summary: hyunjin comforts you after a long, painful day
genre: idk!au, soft hyunjin, really angsty, comfort, fluffy, sad, reader is depressed and is having a tough time, mention of throwing up, mentions of eating and ed, please be safe, and remember that you are loved
a/n: sad :( also requests open
You storm through the front door, almost tripping over before tugging off your shoes and slamming the door shut. Huffing, and on the verge of tears, you trudge down the hallway, every single step aching with a week's worth of disappointments, one after the other.
Entering the bedroom, you throw yourself on the bed, rolling over. Tugging off your work shirt, you groan and run tired, aching hands through your hair, just before the nauseating sense of overwhelm sets in.
You bury your face in the bedding and cry.
.
"Love, I'm home," Hyunjin calls from the doorway.
He's busy kicking off his shoes, about to leave them in their haphazard position on the floor, before he notices something. Your own shoes are strewn messily in the gangway, something that normally never happens.
Hyunjin can recall hundreds of times when you'd made him retrace his steps to the door and put his shoes away neatly in the cupboard. It was a familiar and somewhat comforting routine (though a little unnecessary, Hyunjin thinks).
He frowns before picking each shoe up and putting them carefully in the cupboard. Satisfied, he begins moving through the hallway, before quickly retracing his steps and putting his own footwear meticulously into the cupboard next to yours.
Hyunjin moves through the house, peeking into each room, trying to find you. He pokes his head into the bedroom, immediately noticing your spreadeagled state. He chuckles before moving to your dazed form, lying face down on the mattress.
Hyunjin pokes your side. Nothing.
He figures you're asleep before his hand moves to your hair, ruffling it gently. You let out a muffled whine and shake your head, batting his hand away.
Retracting his hand in surprise and mild confusion, Hyunjin peers down at you as you raise your head. His brow furrows in concern as your eyes meet his.
You look miserable.
Lowering his voice, Hyunjin kneels by the bed, cooing softly.
"Hi," he says quietly. "What happened, my muse?"
A fresh wave of tears fills your eyes and you choke back a cry, mouth parting in distress. Hyunjin is immediately next to you, tugging you gently into his lap, rocking back and forth. Sweet nothings and whispered reassurances leave his mouth in a steady, comforting stream, but his usually soothing voice does nothing to calm your frazzled nerves.
It's all too much.
You sob like a child, leaning into Hyunjin. He notices with some worry how your shoulders are tightening in anxiety, and your hands that are balled into fists, clutching his shirt. Like you don't want him to leave, like he might disappear at any given moment.
You don't know how long it's been before your sobs quieten down. Hyunjin is still rocking you gently, kissing the crown of your forehead every now and then. You raise your head and look at him with red, puffy, exhausted eyes, cheeks streaked with hot, sticky tears.
Hyunjin smiles warmly at you regardless, seemingly not minding the large, soaked patch on his white shirt or the mess you've made of your hair and face. The adoring look in his eyes makes you want to cry and sob into him for another hour. It feels like it's been an hour.
At least, your current feelings are so overwhelming that you can do nothing but open your mouth, staring up at Hyunjin like he's the cure. But the usual, pretty, princely smile doesn't penetrate your heart with a beam of sunlight, and the sky outside feels so much dimmer. Everything feels lonely, like you're a sinking stone, trapped under the cool, dark, icy surface, chilled to the bone.
Like you're watching everything going on above water, where there is warmth and smiles and laughter and compassion, while you sink to the bottom of the deep, dark ocean, heavy and burdened and forgotten.
Hyunjin has been speaking for the last few minutes, his voice careful and soft, but you haven't been listening, too occupied with the numbing, aching feeling settling unpleasantly in the pit of your gut. An uncomfortable cloud of guilt settles over your head, sinking into your being and infusing through your skin like the cloying, sharp scent of cheap perfume.
Your head begins to swirl with a mass of racing thoughts, so fast you can't even comprehend. You feel like you're being squeezed, the life draining out of you, the edges of your vision blurring and darkening.
It's not enough. You're not enough, nothing will ever be good enough, no wonder people don't like you, why can't you just be normal, why can't you just be normal-
"Love, you need to breathe, okay? In and out for me, come on. You can do it."
He sounds so far away...
"Jinnie," you choke out, heaving. Tears stream down your stained cheeks.
"I'm here, I'll always be here, okay?"
You shake your head, sobbing. Your hands are tingling but you can vaguely feel something solid and warm against your palm. Looking up with a tremendous amount of effort, you notice Hyunjin pressing your palm to his heart. Through a haze of tears, you can feel the steady, solid thrum of his heart against your tingling, shaking fingertips.
"You're safe, okay? I'm gonna stay right here with you, just breathe in and out, you can do it, love. You're doing so well."
You choke in a heaving breath and Hyunjin coos encouragingly, still rocking you gently in his lap. Your breathing begins to even out, albeit extremely slowly.
Hyunjin doesn't let go.
.
You wake to something cold and damp being swiped gently across your face. Spluttering, you shove it away before sitting bolt upright, immediately regretting it as you feel the strength pour out of your body in a dizzying wave.
Hyunjin pushes you to lie back gently against the pillows, picking up the damp cloth and continuing to wipe gently at your stained, sticky cheeks and nose. You flush, feeling a bit pathetic, but he doesn't seem to care. His voice is soft.
"You fell asleep again, so I laid you down. What happened, hmm?"
You sniffle. "Everything is a mess."
Hyunjin nods understandingly, cooing as your hands come up to gently clutch at his wrist. "Do you wanna talk about it?"
You shake your head, even that simple motion feeling like a test of ultimate strength. And you're losing the battle.
Hyunjin lets out a soft noise, gesturing to the bedside. "That's okay. Whenever you're ready, my muse. I just want you to drink water and eat something, and then we can do whatever you want."
You sniff and look to your right. On the bedside is a bottle of water, a hydration sachet, a couple of painkillers, and a little bowl of something fresh and red.
You look at Hyunjin, voice croaky. "Raspberries?"
He smiles, nodding. "Bought them this morning. It'll help you feel better, they're really good."
"Jinnie-"
"You need to eat something, okay?" Hyunjin's voice is soft but firm. "Please. It'll help, I promise. You've been running on fumes lately."
You look away guiltily, feeling a bit sick. Hyunjin's long, slender fingers come up to your face, the other holding one of the little berries.
You sigh and relent, chewing slowly on the fruit. And he's right. They are really good.
Hyunjin smiles proudly, like you've done something incredibly amazing. Ruefully, you think that in his eyes, you probably have. And it makes you feel just a tiny bit better inside.
He kisses your forehead. "I'm going to get changed, and then we can watch a movie or cuddle, or do whatever you want, okay?"
You nod silently, exhausted.
Hyunjin leaves and shuts the bathroom door, leaving you with the bowl of little red fruits. You eat slowly, nibbling, not wanting it all to come back up. Every movement is an effort, but slowly, you feel your strength ebbing back in tiny, flowing rivers.
The sky outside lightens, just a little.
a/n: *incoherent sobbing* *sniff sniff*
Does anyone else feel lonesome?
Not lonely. Not alone. Just... lonesome. Like you don't feel connected to anyone. Like you never feel that you will find anyone that understands you, that will see you truly, let alone someone who will even like you. You see friends everywhere, but you don't see yourself in their place, like that is not for you, like you're not made for that and that's not made for you. You see people having fun and laughing and dancing and getting drunk and falling in love and you just... don't feel that for yourself. Like you're not supposed to have that, like you can't because it's not for you and you're not for it.
Like you're supposed to be seeing all these beautiful things in the world but not experience them yourself. Like you want to experience so much, experience everything, but be overwhelmed by it so you don't do any of it.
Like you want to be everywhere and do everything, but you don't belong anywhere and can't do anything. Like you're not supposed to be here. Not in a self-deprecating way but in an incongruous way. You want to live you want to be alive, but you feel you're not supposed to be. Not here at least, not like this. Just a presence in the world, not an active member of it. Even your body doesn't feel like home, your face isn't a face you recognise, like you're not supposed to have either. Like you're just supposed to be.
Like you're supposed to observe, but not experience.
i always forget how much of a hell getting up in the morning during the cold months is until im trying to get dressed taking frost damage like ough augh ugha oagh uagh
pairing: lee know x reader
summary: lee know headcanons
genre: fluff, idol! au, comfort, general fluff headcanons, i'm calling him minho bc it's easier to type sorry not sorry
a/n: posting for the first time in a while. divider from @plutism
masterlist
we all know how much minho loves his dancing
so he'll often drag you to the studio to teach you some moves
since you're into stray kids as a whole, you're often trying to learn the choreo
it helps when your boyfriend is the one who helps make it lol
so whenever he can
he's teaching you the moves and how to make them look fluid
you're bored? studio. you just woke up? studio. it's the middle of the night and you can't sleep?
studio
he also likes performing the choreo for you so he can get your feedback
doesn't matter if you're a dancer or not
he just likes doing it for you so he can get another perspective on how he can do better
of course, it's not always helpful because you're always so enthusiastic and think he's amazing at it
he doesn't mind though, as long as you're happy
will tease you when you try and execute the movements like he does with varying levels of success
actually, when i think of it, i think he would love teaching you because it helps him understand the routine better
sometimes even drags you along to the group practices so you can give little opinions and try the moves yourself
likes watching his members show you how to move your arms in legs in a particular position
but he does get a bit irritated when hyunjin gets a little too close to you
airfryer
minho also loves cooking, we all know him as the chef of skz
and you're often hungry at night time for some reason
so you usually just roll over in bed and lightly shake him awake
he'll carry you to the kitchen and sit you down on the counter before turning a nearby lamp on
you might tell him what you're craving or tell him to just surprise you
one night it might be ramen, another it might be a simple sandwich
but whatever he makes for you, it's always really tasty and you have a little tradition of splitting it in half so he can eat too
he doesn't have much of an appetite at night time but he eats his half anyway to make you happy
you always feel super sleepy afterwards so you just let him carry you back to bed
he'll just wrap his arms around you and bury his face in your neck
he's out within a minute
he likes waking up early too, and just breathing you in next to him, fast asleep
for him, it's the highest form of vulnerability
trusting him to be around you when you're unconscious
he's honoured and it's not a surprise when you wake up to see him sleepily smiling next to you
also i feel like he sniffs a lot in the mornings
like he's a sniffy boy when he wakes up
anyways
minho loves anything cosy and warm
he's a whole cat
so expect lots of blanket forts and plush cushions in your living room
you two like collecting knitted blankies and little plush toys cos it makes for super cosy nights in
you could get home at the end of the day and just see him up to his neck in plushies and cushions
usually with a blanket all balled up next to him so the cats can share it
and he's usually asleep too after a long day at the company
so you just collapse into the fluffy mess next to him and take it easy
you and minho also have a friendly competition of who can come up with the most pet names
knowing how teasing this man is, he'll be coming up with the most disgustingly cringy sweet nicknames
he'll say one out of the blue and you'll fire right back, equally as saccharine
then it's usually a back and forth to see how unhinged it'll get
'honey pie' 'sweet pookums' 'fluffy wuffy cupcake' 'my darling toenail' and so forth
they just get more and more ridiculous and by the end of the back-and-forth you're both fighting not to throw up
still funny tho
despite the teasing, minho is the sweetest guy you've ever known
also so supportive of your dreams and ambitions
he also encourages you to talk about your feelings with him
if you're the trusting type, great
but if you're a little more wary, he'll gently encourage you to open up
but he never pushes you beyond your limits, since he hates being pushed past his boundaries himself
that's the thing about minho
he knows what he hates and so he doesn't tend to do those things to other people
he doesn't like it when people ask him why he's quiet sometimes and so he doesn't ask you the same thing
he just sorta knows
he's also very gentle with you in private, always making sure you're comfortable
around the guys he'll be a lot more teasing but you don't mind
in turn, you encourage him to do the same
you know some people call him cold or heartless
it often affects him when he feels he can't convey his feelings about you as well as he wants to
you know he means well and you know he loves you
he's very clear about that
so whatever he gives you, whether it's a little gift or a compliment or even just physical affection, you accept it
and it must be enough because he always gets all smiley
you know his little smile? yeah, that one
he compliments you? you'll thank him happily and he starts getting that little shy smile on his face
it's so cute so you make sure to be as open as you can towards him
there's nothing you both love more than each other <3

Summary: Welcome to the world of underground street racing. Chan is known for his flashy cars and confident attitude. You're new to the racing scene, eager but inexperienced. Felix is known for his sneaky tactics and charming demeanour. What happens when all three of your worlds collide?
Warnings: skz racer!au, fluff, angst, chan isn't as much of a dick (yayyy), jisung is the best, lots of vroom vrooming, not proofread, brief mentions of injury, tiny bit suggestive if you squint, that's it i think 3.6 k wc
series masterlist
"You ready?" Jisung asked.
Y/n nodded shakily, adjusting her leather jacket. The material felt foreign, unusually smooth and uncomfortable against her skin. Jisung had kindly lent it to her, since she didn't have a racing jacket of her own yet, and not for the first time, Y/n was truly grateful for his amiable nature and quick smile.
He was just so easy to be friends with.
Y/n had only spent several days in Jisung's company as he'd helped train her, but by the time Saturday's race came around, she felt as if she'd known him for years. It was a pleasant feeling, to have someone who was so willingly kind to her after experiencing Chan's confusing attitude towards her, and the other racers' nonchalance and ignorance of her presence entirely. Minho's absence still bitterly tugged at Y/n's heartstrings, but with Jisung's constant chattering, grinning, and spontaneous antics, the sadness and longing began to slowly fade away, and Y/n surprisingly found herself enjoying herself in and out of the arena for the first time since Minho's impromptu training sessions.
Jisung nudged her shoulder suddenly, chuckling as she blinked, having been so lost in her thoughts that she'd forgotten where she was. "You'll be fine, Y/n."
Y/n exhaled, nodding, glad that he'd mistaken her quietness for nerves. She liked Jisung, but being a naturally suspicious person, she was finding it truly difficult to open up and tell him things that might have come easy to someone else. She understood now, why Chan acted the way he did, how he might have been feeling the same way as she did, not knowing who to trust or open up to.
Y/n was surprised she currently even had the capacity to hear herself think. The arena was bright and bustling, trails of car exhaust smoke rising in wisping plumes against the night sky. The floodlights were slightly dimmed, their usual blinding, white glare toned down by the hundreds of coloured light bulbs threading through the grandstands, giving the arena and racetrack a garishly dramatic, multi-coloured aura of reds, pinks, blues, and yellows. The cars racing in the next heat were already lined up, decorated in flashy stripes and sheens of neon colours that made Y/n's head spin if she looked for too long. Minho's car, her car now, was there too, the neon green and chrome black cast sending a jolting, bittersweet pang through her heart. Jisung's neon red and candy-pink Mustang was positioned directly behind hers.
Someone brushed past her shoulder suddenly, smelling woodsy and spicy. Y/n knew that scent now.
Chan moved past her, walking into the crowds towards his car as if she'd conjured him there out of her thoughts. She hadn't seen him around much since their shared breakdown in the tuning shop, but she was relieved to at least see that he was okay. Yn subconsciously realised she'd been coming around to him, albeit extremely slowly and warily.
Not to say she had forgiven him for what he'd done to Minho.
Y/n considered going after him suddenly, feeling a strange urge to reconnect with him the way they'd done in the garage. But she knew in her heart Chan wouldn't want to talk about it, especially since he'd been crying. She had a feeling most of the racers here weren't really into shows of affection or vulnerability unless it was shoving their tongues down the throats of the grid girls, who were currently swarming flirtatiously around a blonde-haired racer clad in jet black and blue.
Not that there was any time to reconnect with Chan anyway.
Jisung clapped her on the back, giving her a final, million-watt smile before disappearing behind her to enter his own car in the lineup. Y/n took a shaky breath and opened the car door of her own, sliding smoothly into the driver's seat. Her fingers found their place on the wheel, the cool leather sending an involuntary shiver up her spine. She closed her eyes tightly and tried to focus. Opening them again, trying to clear her head, Y/n glanced in her rearview mirror, noticing Jisung making his final adjustments in his seat. Y/n fought a tiny, fond laugh as he hit his elbow on the window frame, his lean top half temporarily disappearing as he keeled over dramatically at the pain.
Dragging her eyes away from her friend, Y/n glanced across to her left, noticing Chan clenching the wheel of his own car next to her. His sleek, dark Corvette was polished to an effortless shine, the red streamlining catching the multi-coloured lights sprinkled around the racetrack. He was wearing the exact same black and red racing suit he'd worn when she'd first ran into him, and Y/n cringed at the memory, remembering how she'd fallen straight onto her ass afterwards. She was also convinced that Chan probably slept in his racing suit at this point. She was about to smile at the thought, turning to look at him, when she realised he looked a lot more focused than usual.
No, not focused.
Tense.
Like he was worried about something.
Every single muscle was rigid and stiff. He kept shifting in his seat, his usual bravado disappearing completely as he fretted silently to himself, frowning every now and then. Y/n hastily redirected her gaze as Chan's eyes caught hers, her heart thudding at the unexpected glance.
A grating rev from her other side made Y/n jolt. Glaring at the racer to her left, Y/n's jaw dropped a little as she realised the racer who had been flirting with the grid girls was staring directly at her. Her glare disappeared as quickly as it had come, a sudden shyness and sense of inferiority crashing over her being. His car must have been the most expensive one on the track. The McLaren P1's sleek, deep blue body was decorated with vibrant, sky blue lightning strikes detailed in black and white. It was truly stunning.
So is the racer inside it, Y/n thought.
She promptly realised she'd been staring at the blonde-haired racer for some time now. He was doing the same, his dark, almost boyishly pretty eyes boring into Y/n's with an intensity that made her want to shrink into oblivion. His face was freckled, the blonde strands falling down over his forehead and nape in messy, loosely clustered strands. She could faintly see his roots growing out, the colour beneath the harsh dye a pleasant, dark, chocolatey brown.
Y/n watched, stupefied, as the racer smirked, a strand of pretty blonde hair falling into his face. He shook his head a little, shaking it out of the way, before cocking a confident eyebrow at her and smirking again, his tongue darting out to briefly touch his teeth. Heat flooded Y/n's cheeks at the expression, though she knew he was mocking her, nonverbally telling her to stay out of the way.
Out of his way, most likely.
She watched as he threw his head back and laughed, though she couldn't hear it from her car. It didn't seem like the friendly type of laugh, either. More derisive and taunting. Y/n's hands clenched involuntarily on the wheel and she looked straight ahead, trying to redirect her moral compass, and focus.
This would have been so much easier if Minho was here, she thought desperately. She leant forward a little and watched with hawk-like eyes as a grid girl sashayed onto the track, holding a single, black-and-white checkered flag. Y/n's heart thudded as she watched the girl raise the flag. Y/n glanced at Chan one more time before the flag dropped.
The instant the green signal flared, they were off.
Tires screeched against asphalt as the cars launched forward, engines roaring. The blonde-haired racer's car had already disappeared round a turn as soon as the signal flare had launched, and Y/n sputtered, faltering momentarily.
How had he gotten there so fast?
Recollecting herself, Y/n's heart leapt into her throat as she slammed her foot on the gas. The adrenaline surged through her veins as the world around her blurred, the car's momentum throwing her against the seat. Jisung's car sped past her, stuck in the middle between Chan's car and her own, but she strangely found she didn't mind. Jisung seemed to have enough skill to hold his own, and Y/n was far more focused and preoccupied on beating two particular cars.
Chan’s car surged ahead at first, taking an early lead like Y/n had always seen him do, with smooth confidence and practiced ease. Y/n glanced at her rearview mirror; she could already see the blonde racer's car coming up behind her. He was so incredibly fast that Y/n put him out of her mind, instead focusing on Chan's car beside her.
Forget about the hot blonde guy, she thought. I just have to place, and beat Chan.
Chan's car was faster, smoother, and Y/n could tell that he knew the track like the back of his hand. But Y/n stayed focused, her knuckles white against the wheel, refusing to be intimidated. She could feel the power beneath her, every turn and shift of the road pushing her to test her limits, and go beyond. She gritted her teeth and wrenched the wheel, eyes laser-focused on the track ahead and the cars vying to overtake her.
The cars whipped around tight corners, engines screaming, sparks flying as their bumpers almost brushed. Y/n inched closer, narrowing the gap between her car and Chan's. Her eyes flicked to the speedometer—she was pushing her car harder than ever.
Y/n saw Chan’s engine suddenly sputter, and his car jerking violently. The reckless revving dropped, and the smooth power that was seconds ago relied on faltered. His car slowed, losing speed, and within seconds, it was clear—his car was stalling.
Y/n's eyes instinctively flickered back and forth between the track ahead and Chan's car, now dropping behind her. She could see him beat his fist against the wheel, his expression wild and glaring. Her heart hammered against her chest as she grit her teeth, wondering if she should slow down. But regaining her rationality, she cast Chan one last glance and sped past, right behind Jisung and the blonde racer. Steeling her focus, she looked ahead at the finish line, the grid girl now standing on the side of the track, waving the checkered flag.
Her hands tightened on the wheel. This is it.
The finish line was in sight, the wind whipping past her, the crowd roaring as they saw her take the lead, directly behind the blonde. She sped ahead, leaving Chan and his stalling car behind.
Seconds later, Y/n crossed the line, the rush of her first placing victory flooding through her veins. She slammed on the brakes, coming to a hard stop, her heart pounding, barely believing what had just happened.
She turned the engine off and with clammy hands, opened the door, stumbling out. Her ankles and wrists ached with the exertion and her fingers hurt, like they had been molded to the steering wheel. She made a mental note to buy gloves and loosen her grip next time.
The thought flew out of Y/n's head as a large, lean figure tackled her in a hug, her hearing muffling temporarily along with the roars from the crowd. Jisung lifted her above the ground, his hair slick with sweat, eyes crinkled as he laughed. He shrieked, jumping up and down on the spot, Y/n jolting in his arms.
"You did it!" he cheered. "Even beat me and Chan. How's that for a proper race, uh?"
Y/n smiled, letting out a tentative, wheezy laugh, struggling in his grip.
"Thank you, Jisung, but I can't breathe-"
"Oh! Oh, sorry, sorry," he placed her back on the ground, readjusting the jacket from where he'd disheveled it. He grinned at her, running a gloved hand through his hair. The haphazardly neon, overexcited crowd bustled around them, jostling and shouting. "Better?"
Y/n nodded, relieved, just as she spotted a head of messy blonde hair. Peeking behind her friend, she noticed the blonde racer pushing and brushing his way through the crowd. She blurted out a half-hearted excuse to Jisung and disappeared into the mess of people, trying to keep him in her sight.
Finally making her way through to the other side of the crowd, Y/n inhaled in a much-needed breath of cold, slightly smoky air, and glanced around hastily, her eyes settling on the racer. He was a little way away, talking to a slim, well-dressed man with a stern face. Y/n stumbled past a crowd of flamboyantly dressed young women and came up beside him, panting slightly. The well-dressed man disappeared with a glance at her, just as the blonde racer turned to face her. Y/n's breath escaped her lungs in a low whoosh.
He was beautiful.
Stuttering slightly, and feeling like a common peasant in the presence of someone so ethereally charming, Y/n found she had temporarily lost the capacity for speech. Her words finally came out in a rather pathetic, stumbling mess of fragments.
"U-um, I just- wanted to say, that-"
The racer raised an eyebrow, his expression not unfriendly nor open. More... mildly irritated and hesitantly curious at the same time. Y/n was convinced she couldn't have pulled off the expression if she tried.
His voice broke through the charged, slightly smoky atmosphere, the tone and pitch of it deep and thick and smooth like honey.
"Yes?"
Y/n's knees almost buckled. His voice was rich and accented, like Chan's but just a little bit more so. Y/n noticed his freckles again, spotting the bridge of his nose and cheeks, his eyes veiled by long, dark lashes. There was a slighter larger freckle on the smooth curve of his cheekbone, shaped a little like a heart. She fought the sudden urge to smile at the cuteness of it and awkwardly cleared her throat.
"Um, congratulations. For winning the race."
Her words came out more composed than before. Y/n silently congratulated herself on being able to form a singular coherent sentence in front of this ethereal supermodel of a human being.
"Thank you."
Y/n fidgeted, unsure of what to do. She intertwined her fingers, trying not to make things awkward. The supermodel racer simply stared at her, tilting his head slightly, before reaching out and tugging lightly on the collar of her borrowed jacket. A jolt of fire seared through Y/n at the touch, though he had made no contact with her skin. Like a static shock.
"Stealing Jisung's things, hmm?"
Y/n stuttered. "He let me me borrow it. Uhm, for the race."
"I see. Congratulations to you too. Much better since your last try."
Y/n almost choked on her saliva, the humiliating memory of her first race resurfacing in her mind. Had he been watching her?
All this time?
The racer seemed to notice her assumption, because his eyes widened infinitesimally, his hands clenching into fists. Seemingly irritated, he huffed out a breath that felt more forced than genuine.
Must be to keep up an image, Y/n thought ruefully to herself. I bet he's a softie under all of it. Like Chan. I think.
The blonde's thick, velvety voice floated through the air to her again, this time tinted in clarity and begrudging respect.
"Don't get cocky, rookie."
"Okay."
The racer simply nodded, apparently deeming the conversation finished, and brushed past her into the crowd.
Y/n watched him go.
☆★☆
The crowd was like a human barrier; Y/n was pushing and stumbling her way through, trying to get back to Jisung. Suddenly turning around, she ran directly into someone, almost falling over backwards. Panic set in her chest as she stumbled, the jostling crowd around her doing nothing to help her regain her bearings or balance.
Y/n squeezed her eyes shut, bracing, just as a pair of strong arms coiled around her waist, warm and stable. Her feet caught themselves on the asphalt, and one foot hovered unsurely just above the ground. Y/n looked up at Chan.
He smiled ruefully. "Should have caught you the first time, uh?"
Y/n's heart dropped out from her ribcage, down her legs, and out of her ass. She flushed suddenly at the feeling of his arms around her waist, cheeks tingling with fire.
"Thanks," she managed to get out as Chan pulled her fully upright. He released his hold on her and Y/n's body almost followed him like a magnet, already feeling cold without his touch. A sense of bittersweet disappointment filled her stomach. She blinked, hard, before looking up at him, unsure of what to say. Was he upset he'd lost?
"Um, your car-"
"Don't worry about it," Chan's expression was unreadable.
Such a carefully constructed mask, Y/n thought. A lot like Minho's.
But where Minho's mask was gold and ivory, Chan's was silver and obsidian.
Opposites.
In every way, it seemed. Black and white. Light and dark. Like two knights from opposing kingdoms, standing for completely different things.
White knight and black knight.
Y/n snapped out of her thoughts, opening her mouth to speak. Chan beat her to it.
"I'm sorry."
What?
Y/n's dumbfounded expression must have betrayed her surprise, because Chan rolled his eyes, tapping his foot on the asphalt. He huffed, seemingly trying to steel himself, or keep his irritation in check. Knowing Chan as little as she did, she went ahead and assumed it was probably the latter.
"Just- I'm sorry. That I shouted at Minho in front of you, that I left the tuning shop so suddenly. I didn't mean to get so sentimental, just- memories, y'know?"
Y/n blinked, her capacity for speech returning from its brief holiday.
"Oh. Um- it's okay."
Chan blinked back at her, expression mildly surprised. His eyebrows shot up into his hairline, disbelieving. It was clear he hadn't been expecting to be forgiven.
"I thought you'd be pissed."
Y/n shrugged. "I was, but I let it go after a while. I forgive you. You know, if that's what you want to hear."
Chan's mouth formed a small, 'o' and Y/n's cheeks puffed up, trying to hold back a laugh.
"You look like a pufferfish," she snickered.
Chan flushed a light pink across his cheekbones and tutted once at her before hastily running a hand through his dark, sweat-slicked hair. Now that he was standing a little closer, Y/n could see the light bruising around his right eye showing through. She could see the light, careful smoothing of concealer over the sweat-sheened area and bit the inside of her cheek. A tiny patch of purple and green bloomed in faint patches at the corner of his eye, and to Y/n, it looked like it'd gotten worse since the last time they'd seen each other. Se glanced up at the racer, suddenly concerned, but decided not to say anything.
Chan suddenly opened his mouth to retort to her comment and was immediately tackled by a tornado with dirty blonde hair and a mesh shirt. He let out an oof and stumbled back a few steps, freezing as Jisung joyfully squeezed him around the middle. Chan exhaled before hesitantly patting Jisung on the back. Y/n chuckled.
"Y/n beat you," Jisung's voice was muffled, though it contained no small amount of glee.
Chan groaned. "Well spotted. Uh- you can let go now."
Jisung lifted his head from where it was buried in Chan's shoulder, and reluctantly let go, cheeks puffing out in a pout.
Y/n chuckled at her friend's antics and glanced at Chan. The crowd around her was beginning to feel suffocating.
"Let's go sit down."
☆★☆
Chan groaned as Jisung snatched his drink for the fourth time, laughing.
Y/n had dragged the both of them up into the bleachers, where they could watch the entire event without being crowded. The neon flashing lights and the screeching of the cars had dimmed, as if someone had draped a blanket over it, dulling the lights and colours and noises.
She dragged her gaze away from the arena below and turned her gaze to Jisung. He was busy scarfing down the rest of Chan's drink. Tossing it into a nearby bin, he turned to her with a cheeky grin. Chan groaned and shoved him lightly, displeased with the theft of his refreshment, sending Jisung into a fit of laughter.
Looking down at the arena again, Y/n replayed the events of the night. The blonde haired racer popped into her mind, and she turned to Jisung suddenly, curious.
"Jisung?"
"Hmm?"
"Do you, um- there's this blonde haired racer, he was next to me in the lineup. Do you maybe know who he is? He had the McLaren with the lightning strikes on it."
Jisung nodded thoughtfully. Chan was preoccupied, running calloused fingertips over the thick silver chain on his wrist. He looked up in interest just as Jisung spoke.
"Blonde hair, McLaren, lightning strikes... sounds like someone we know, huh, Chan?"
Chan rolled his eyes, leaning back in his seat. The night breeze blew his dark hair black, the wind running its cool fingers through the sweat-dried locks.
"Oh, we know him all right."
Jisung grinned cheekily, chuckling. "Chan hates him because he's a better racer."
"I do not. And he's not that good."
"Mhm, totally..."
"Oh, shut up, Jisung."
The younger boy laughed, holding up his hands in defence, leaning away from Chan. The shit-eating grin on Jisung's face was wiped away by a swift, sharp slap to the upside of his head. He groaned and flopped dramatically to the arena floor. Y/n, meanwhile, just blinked softly, unbothered by their antics.
"What's his name?" she asked inquisitively.
Chan huffed, stretching out his long legs in front of him before propping them up on the seat in front. His voice was gravelly.
"Lee Felix."
a/n: i planned to post this a month ago but oops. also felix introduction yay !
life is all about well-balanced friendships
pairing: hwang hyunjin x reader
summary: hyunjin headcanons
genre: fluff, idol! au, comfort, general fluff headcanons, get you a man like hyune
a/n: divider from @aewinse (or not) rightful owner of this cute divider, please don't be mad at me i'm just a lil thing
masterlist
so
we all know how perceptive hyunjin is
super emotionally aware
not that the other members of skz aren't, it's just that hyunjin seems to sense your emotions the best
i stand by the opinion that he's actually the most sensitive member of skz
anyway
he can always tell when something is off
and he isn't usually upfront about it
like when you come home upset about something, or something bad happens, hyunjin doesn't shove himself in your face
instead, he just quietly stays by your side and offers you little things like hugs or tissues
and unless you ask him for space he's staying right by your side
sometimes he closes his eyes really tight and tries to take the pain away for you
crying
he also brings kkami with him and sits him down next to you because he knows stroking the soft, warm fur helps keep you grounded
just know that whenever you're upset, hyunjin will be right there with gentle words of reassurance and lots of affection to give if you want it
also always has pocket tissues and a bottle of water in every room of the house so if you do end up upset, he doesn't have to leave you
speaking of leaving
hyunjin is always dragging you out of the house on little dates
we all know this man is a hopeless romantic so of course you expected this when you started dating him
usually it's art gallery dates
sometimes it can also be things like visiting pop-up stores
or just random restaurants that look interesting
once hyunjin dragged you to a slightly suspicious pop up food stall
needless to say, you both ended up at the jeongchan dorm for two weeks because of food poisoning
on the bright side you did get to be around him nonstop for a whole fortnight
neither of you complained
jeongin did tho
"chan-hyung, y/n just threw up on my hoodie!"
lmao
hyunjin is also the type of guy to invite you over to his very often
changbin is usually at the gym so you both get quiet time to yourselves
you both have a watch list
most of the time it's cuddling and watching the dramas and movies
snuggling in bed with lots of snacks and warmth
at this point you and hyune both have designated blankets to use when movie nights happen
they usually end up on the floor tho bc you both just tangle yourselves in each other's arms
oh well
forget about the blankets
if it's warm, it works
hyunjin also likes to keep physical contact with you
if you're working, he'll sit beside you and quietly draw in his sketchbook
or on your forearms
as long as it doesn't disturb you, but you don't really mind bc his drawings and doodles are cute
if you wear jewelry, he'll be fiddling with it
or your hair
and he loves your hair so much !!
always messing around with it, suggesting different looks and styles
as someone who dyes their hair a lot, hyunjin knows a surprising amount about the whole process
you could suggest a colour and he'd tell you the whole process
gesturing and making cute faces and holding up strands of his own hair to demonstrate
as much as you love him, you don't really want him to cut or style or colour it for you
sorry hyunjin
he likes it when you try and style his hair tho
whenever you're out, you look for little cute hair accessories and ties you think he might like
then when he gets home
he sits between your legs while holding a mirror, and you clip hairpins and tie elastics into every section of his locks
he loves it
the feeling of your hands against his scalp is so relaxing to him
multiple times he's fallen asleep like that
with his hair full of ridiculous accessories
this makes for a lot of cute photos
hyunjin is pretty much the fashionista in the relationship so he's always down for things like new makeup looks or nail designs
if you're a makeup artist, stylist, or nail tech, even better
if you're not, that's okay too !!
he loves watching your little focused face as you draw clumsy designs on his nails, style jewelry against his skin, and draw on him
he thinks it's like you making your mark on him
so wherever he goes, he always has a little piece of you by his side, whether it's a cute ring you bought for him, a silly drawing on his forearm, or a slightly mismatched outfit
the rest of the members tease him relentlessly but he doesn't care 70
he just likes the feeling of you being comfortable enough around him to share your ideas through styling
he'll also do the same for you, wanting to pick your outfits, especially for the bigger events where you're also invited, like award shows
or versace runway events where you're his plus one
you have a closet at your place which is full of stunning, custom made items hyunjin got for you, designed by donatella versace herself
but even though they're expensive, hyunjin expects nothing in return, only wanting you to look and feel beautiful and stunning
he'll also show his love by buying the both of you matching items
it's a little tradition between the both of you
you both now have matching phone cases, rings, necklaces, bracelets, hairpins, and a variety of other items
to outsiders, you and hyunjin and hopelessly in love
and they're right
usually you guys go out with matching outfits too
because it's whimsical and romantic and you both believe that it showcases your love to outsiders, and bonus, if either of you gets lost, you know exactly what colour shirt to look for in the crowd
needless to say, you're always the matching couple on the block <3
a/n: hyune for the win !
General fluff headcanons with skz
(If not all then just with Chan and Hyunjin!!) ♥️
hihi sweet anon i'm sorry this took so astronomically long ... it's here now tho oops . i got hit with writer's block and lost motivation sigh ... hyunjin version is dropping later tonight, and i might continue the headcanon series if people request for the other members :] we'll see tho <3
pairing: bang chan x reader
summary: chan headcanons
genre: fluff, idol! au, comfort, general fluff headcanons, chan is just a silly lil thing
a/n: i hate writer's block . divider from @aewinse
masterlist
...
first of all
lots of physical affection
like, lots
anywhere he can get you, anywhere he can find you, he's coiling his arms around your waist or around your shoulders, leaning over your shoulder to nosily look at whatever it is you're doing
sometimes, if he wants attention, and is in a whiny mood, he'll drape himself over you and let his weight sag onto your body from behind
which usually results in a panicked squeal from you, a chuckle from chan, and therefore the two of you sprawled in a heap on the floor
from there, you're not getting up
say goodbye to whatever it was you were doing because chan will happily lie on top of you for as long as he pleases
unless you urgently need to get up, like to turn off the stove or go to the bathroom, chan will keep you in his arms for a very long time
the fact that your legs go numb after a while because of his weight is also an advantage in chan's eyes
he can literally just lift you up and place you on the bed or the couch to cuddle with him like a little plush toy
albeit a very whiny one
when he's feeling a little more playful, and in need of your affection, he'll come up behind you and suddenly throw you over his shoulder
the world goes upside down and before you know it, you're cozied up with a giggly chan
he loves taking naps with you fr
we all know this man does not sleep like at all but somehow having you near him helps a lot
he always finds that your warmth makes him feel relaxed and cozy, and he doesn't have to worry about what comes next because it's just you and him, right now
even if he doesn't manage to get to sleep, he's content with just peacefully watching you sleep, and likes to stroke your hair or talk to you softly
even though you can't hear him
chan also loves to cook for you !!
he's always bugging minho to teach him new recipes so he can cook really good food for you
eventually minho just sends him a list of recipe blogs and websites and you usually come home to something hot on the stove
chan's super busy, so on the days he can't be there to cook for you, he'll prepare food beforehand and freeze several containers so you don't have to cook
he gets to take care of you, and you get to eat well
win win
you always save half the portion of your food so that when chan comes home, he can eat quickly before slipping into bed next to your sleeping figure
he doesn't like it much when you do that, since he wants you to eat well without having to worry about him
you do it anyway, knowing that chan often doesn't have the energy or time to make food for himself after a tiring day at the company
also !!
he likes inviting you to his solo studio sessions, usually late at night or during his free time at the company
sits you on his lap without fear because he always locks the door beforehand
"can't have the kids walking in on us,"
or so he says
he just wants you all to himself
you trace the veins on his hands and forearms while he mixes beats and adds elements to his tracks
hums softly into your ear while you lay your head against his chest
and when you get tired, he'll lift you carefully and place you on the studio couch, draping his thick, cologne-scented leather jacket over you
also i just know he smells so good okay
like
i'm thinking like spicy, smoky sort of scent
but not like bushfire smoky or whatever
like a soft, subtle, masculine smell
more woodsy and leather-like
ughhh
he always pulls up these fragrance websites on his phone, maybe from fendi or another fashion house
he'll let you sit on his lap and choose whichever you think will suit him best
and he always buys the ones you choose, wearing your three favourites on alternate weeks so you have an excuse to be close to him
you just want to smell him
don't tell him that though kekeke
chan also loves buying you stuff though you always tell him not to
on your bad days especially, when you get home, there'll be a little care package on the bed in a pretty box tied with a ribbon
he always puts your favourite snacks, sweets, skincare products, and little gifts inside because he knows it makes you feel so much better
also always adds two facemasks so you can both do them when chan comes home
obviously you get first pick tho
chan also likes buying you little things from tour that remind you of him, or things that match the vibe of the songs they performed
when he came back from the maniac tour it was an oversized hoodie with green and purple accents, just like the theme of maniac
when he travelled to seoul for the five-star tour, he came back with a pair of black leather combat boots
and they had these little silver stars studded all over the sides, and thick silver zips
you wear both items as often as you can, trying to incorporate chan's little gifts into your everyday life
you feel bad sometimes because he keeps buying you stuff and you don't want to be a bother, but chan firmly insists on it
"baby, you're never a bother,"
please step on me ugh
aHem
moving on
in return, you always take chan's insta posts and some of his bubble pics too
he always lets you choose which ones he should post, though over time they get less and less thirty bc chan is yours and not stay's
as much as you and chan love the fans, there are some select photos you would much rather keep to yourself
it's more special that way in your opinion
chan likes to take pretty photos of you too
you get like really shy though, and chan can't have that
so he just sits you opposite him, takes your wrists in one hand, and snaps a shit ton of photos of you with the other
there's no way to get out of it
he keeps all his photos of you in a special folder on his phone, and his favourites pictures of you in a locked, password-protected folder
like your anniversary pictures, and other special memories he doesn't want other people to see
the kids nag him to show them the photos but chan never relents, wanting to keep those special memories private
your camera roll is much the same
you're also the number one supplier of bang chan blackmail material
the boys, especially minho and felix, always come to you for blackmail material and stupid photos of chan that he hates
you think they're cute but chan violently disagrees
anyways
chan honestly doesn't mind you having his less-than-favourite photos on your phone
as long as you're happy <3
a/n: reblogs and comments appreciated

You hurry down the paved pathway, slipping between the throngs of pedestrians on the sidewalk. Mumbling a half-hearted 'sorry' to an older woman who you'd accidentally bumped, you push past the park gates and find yourself wandering the paved path through the grass.
There aren't many people around, since it's a weekday afternoon, and you're glad of it. Your tie blows in the light, summery breeze as you hurry down a widened path, the trees expertly twined together and grown over time to form a giant, leafy archway. The lush, green canopy provides a welcome shelter from the afternoon heat, and you stumble as you pass a patch of dappled sunlight that's filtering through the leaves.
You land with a solid ugh onto the pebbly pavement, the side of your head knocking a little against the ground. You wheeze, the air leaving your lungs in a low, instant huff. It hurts so bad you instantly roll onto your side. There's nothing more you want to do than curl up, lie here, and cry, but the small, sensible voice in your head tells you to stand up and find somewhere to sit.
Groaning, you heave yourself to your feet and collapse onto the nearest bench. The tears fill your eyes then and you heave, doubling over, the impact from hitting the ground, the terrible course of the day, and your general state of dishevel rushing up on you in a dizzying wave of nausea and overwhelm.
You cry.
☆☆☆
Gentle footsteps crunch against the pebbled pavement, and you feel a presence move to sit quietly beside you. Your have your knees tucked up to your chest, your head buried between them, so you have no clue who it is.
A faint scent of vanilla fans over you with the soft breeze and you feel a warm, calloused fingertip gently poke the side of your head.
You sniff. "Go away, Felix."
Felix sighs and leans his head on yours, careful not to put too much pressure on you. One hand moves to place itself on top of yours, the deep, velvety tone of his voice penetrating the walls you've built up around yourself.
"Y/n, lift your head."
"No."
"Please?"
You sigh and lift your head at his pleading request, which feels like it's made of lead, and look at him. Your eyes are red-rimmed and watery, hot tears spilling down your cheeks like little rivers of flames. Felix sighs softly and puts an arm around your hunched figure, pulling you into him gently. His warmth envelops you and it's the safest you've felt all day.
"What happened?" he says quietly so as not to scare you. "I was walking back from the shop and I saw you dashing the other way crying."
You sniff, your voice cracked and pitched in distress. "They hate me, Felix. I don't know why, it's just every time they see me, I walk away feeling like shit. They hate me and it's making me hate myself, I feel like I don't even matter-"
Felix's eyes widen and his hold on you tightens, secure and stable around your shaking figure. He lets you sob into him, and by the time you lift your head, the juncture of his neck is soaked with tears.
"Y/n," he says softly. "They're just insecure about themselves. They hate themselves so they want to make everyone else feel the same way. Don't let them."
You cry softly. "I feel so worthless, Lix..."
"You're not worthless, Y/n. You're pretty and smart and creative and stunning and the funniest person I know. I'm constantly checking my phone to see if you've texted me, and every time the door to the studio opens, I hope that it's you.
Hyunjin-hyung and Changbin-hyung tease me all the time because I talk about you so much. The boys love you, so, so much. I do too, and I need you to understand that whatever those bullies say, it's not true. You're worth everything, and I'll be here every second to remind you in case you forget."
You drop your head into his shoulder again and he cradles it close, the warmth of his hand easing the throbbing pain in your temples. You emit a weak, watery, muffled thankyou into his now-soaked shirt and he affectionately kisses the crown of your head. Cupping your face, he looks at your face, seemingly searching.
"You're hurt," he carefully brushes a thumb across your cheekbone, a slight sting following. You probably scraped it when you fell earlier. Felix retracts his hand, his thumb stained lightly with blood. You turn your hands over. The heels of your palms are in the same condition.
Felix tuts softly, stroking the inside of each wrist. "Do you wanna come back to the studio with me? Chan, Hyunjin, and Han will most likely still be there, but there's a big first aid kit in the cupboard, and Chan-hyung might be able to help fix you up."
"I don't want to burden-"
"You're not being a burden," Felix cups your face firmly. "You'll never be a burden to me. Just keep fighting and let me help. Let us help. You don't have to keep doing it alone."
You nod, and move to stand up. Your knees protest in the form of a stinging, searing pain, the scrapes disturbed. You wince and flop back onto the bench, groaning. It's replaced by a yelp as Felix hoists you effortlessly into his arms, bridal-style. Your hands lock around his shoulders and he grins.
"Let's go."
Despite the situation, a question nags at your conscience. "Lix, weren't you supposed to be at dance practice at this time? How come you were out."
Felix begins walking, a cheeky smile making its way onto his freckled face. "I snuck out because Hyunjin wouldn't stop nagging me. Besides, I wanted food from that really good ramen restaurant down the street."
You cover your mouth with a scraped hand. "The rest of the boys are never going to let this go once they find out."
Felix winces. "Oh well. I snuck out for a snack and came back with a Y/n, so I don't think they'll mind-"
You squeal and swat his chest. Felix laughs and continues carrying you down the path.
"Felix?"
He responds with a hum, still smiling softly.
"Thankyou for helping me."
Felix chuckles lightly. The arm that's cupping your shoulders squeezes gently, sending heatwaves flooding into your veins.
"Always and forever, okay?"
a/n: my heart hurts
Hi hi! It's me again :) since you offered and I loved your last fic I read, I was wondering if I could request something? A hurt/comfort+ fluff with Jisung helping you feel better after you overworked yourself <33 cute 🥺 thank you!
hello >< thank you for requesting haha, i wasn't sure if you'd take me up on the offer ! this fic is a little bit self-indulgent and i got carried away, but i had fun writing this ask, so here it is <3
pairing: han jisung x reader
summary: jisung finds out you've been overworking yourself
genre: fluff, idol! au, lots of angst, fainting, mentions of not eating properly, sad reader, hurt to comfort, jisung ft. concerned leader bang chan
a/n: eat, eat, you EAT !!
The scratching of Jisung's pen and the occasional tune of a hum were the only sounds reverberating through the studio. He sighed, leaning back in his chair, pen at his lips, and thought hard, eyes tilting up to look at the paneled ceiling. Changbin was beside him, eyes laser-focused on his own monitor, and his foot tapping every now and then against the hardwood floor.
Struck with another idea, Jisung leaned forward again and scribbled it down so fast he knocked over the energy drink at the end of the desk. Changbin snickered in the background as Jisung scrambled to catch it.
Hurriedly repositioning the can, he turned his attention back to the digital program and added several new beats, creating an entirely new depth to the unfinished track. He scribbled a scheduled recording time on a sticky note and stuck it to the monitor, moving back to his lyric notebook.
He was in the zone.
Said zone was rudely interrupted by a soft yet persistent knocking on the frosted glass of the studio door. Jisung turned almost impatiently, his inspiration and focus fleeing almost instantly at the disturbance. He sighed.
"Hey, Chan-hyung."
The older boy's voice was quiet, apologetic, but his face was unusually calm. Almost too calm, like he was holding back.
"Can you come outside for a minute?"
Changbin glanced up from his monitor before Chan waved a dismissive hand. Jisung got up quietly and shut the frosted studio door behind him.
"Hyung, what's wrong?"
Chan's mouth pressed into a firm line, pulling Jisung's smartphone out of his pocket and handing it to the younger boy. "You left your phone in the dance studio, and it kept ringing, so I picked it up. Y/n's workplace left about seven calls."
A knot of sudden worry settled in the pit of Jisung's stomach. His eyebrows furrowed. "Is she okay?"
Chan's tone was soft, yet urgent.
"She fainted."
Jisung's knees buckled, and he fumbled for his phone. True to Chan's word, there were now about nine calls left unreceived.
"Fuck," he swore.
Chan pulled his car key out of his pocket. "She's at home. Come on, I'll drive you."
✧✧✧
Jisung fumbled with his house key, his hands clammy. He missed the lock about four times before managing to slip it in, and he tripped in his haste to get inside. Chan called a concerned warning from the driveway, locking his car.
Dashing to the living room, Jisung noticed a fluffy head of hair poking up from behind the couch. He climbed over the side and landed with an oof next to you, making you jolt. You were wrapped in a fluffy blanket, a glass of water and several snacks on the coffee table in front of you. You were still in your work clothes, though they were no longer orderly and free of rumples.
His hands cupped your pale face, eyes frantically searching over your body for any sort of injury.
"Jagiya, are you okay? I came here as soon as I could, I'm sorry I missed your calls, wait, why did you-"
"Sungie, I'm fine-"
"You fucking fainted, Y/n! Do you know how worried I was? Chan had to speed here because I was so worried. What happened? This is serious!"
You bit your lip, feeling guilty tears well up in your eyes. "I'm sorry, I just- I didn't mean for it to happen."
Jisung sighed, leaning into your side, his hand coming up to tenderly stroke your thigh. Chan waited by the doorway, eyebrows creased with worry and arms folded across his broad chest.
Jisung's voice was urgent, soft. "Jagi, what happened? Chan told me he saw so many calls from your workplace on my phone, because I forgot it in the studio. He said you fainted."
You nod, a hot tear spilling down your cheek.
Jisung sighed, biting his lip so hard he thought he might draw blood. "Did you eat today? Or drink water?"
Your silence was enough to tell him the answer. Jisung fretted, his hands coming up to gently tilt your face towards him. You hated seeing him so worried. All because of you, you think.
"Y/n, we talked about this, you need to eat, you need to drink water. No wonder you collapsed."
"I'm sorry," you cry out weakly. "It's so hard, Sung... I haven't had time to do anything, I just thought if I worked harder it would all fix itself," you sob softly into his shoulder, "But it didn't."
Jisung sighed, leaning his head on top of yours. "I'm sorry for getting all pissy at you. I didn't mean to snap, I just want you to be okay. Did you drive home?"
You sniff. "My coworker drove me."
Jisung nods, kissing your temple softly. "Have you had anything to eat, apart from these snacks?"
You shake your head.
Jisung lets out a soft noise of sympathy. "Let's get some proper food in you, and some water too. Did you drink any?"
You point to the half-finished glass of water on the coffee table.
"Good girl," he says softly, standing up. "Try and finish that, and I'll make you something to eat."
"Make me something too," Chan pipes up from the doorway, trying to lighten the mood a little, and cheer you up.
You shift a little on the couch so you can watch Jisung in the kitchen. He's busy rummaging through the fridge, pulling out several ingredients, then he disappears into the pantry. He emerges with three cups of instant ramen.
You and Chan watch inquisitively as he pulls the lid off one of the cups, turning around to switch the kettle on. He knocks the entire cup off the countertop, the dried ramen noodles scattering all over the floor. Chan winces just as a muffled curse comes from behind the kitchen island.
You take small, slow sips of the water, the glass cool against your skin as you watch Jisung clean up the mess. Chan carries two tablets to you and you swallow them before thanking him quietly, hoping the medicine will kick in soon. He leans against the back of the couch, watching Jisung clatter about in the kitchen. The kettle stopped boiling a while ago, but you appreciate Jisung's efforts nonetheless.
Chan leans down to you, an eyebrow quirked and his voice low. "He'll be a while," he says with a defeated chuckle, pulling out his phone and swiping up onto a takeout app. "Let's just order food."
You chuckle and nod in agreement.
a/n: i need new dividers
aww @jisunggy i'm so glad it helped 🥺 requests are open if you'd like more <3
pairing: han jisung x reader
summary: you had a shit day and jisung helps out
genre: fluff, non-idol! au, heavy on the comfort, angsty, big softie jisung
a/n: if you're having a shit day, feel better <3
You sigh and throw an arm over your forehead, trying to erase the day's memories from mind. Everything that could have possibly gone wrong went wrong, and all you wanted to do the entire day was get out of your restricting day clothes and flop into bed.
Which is exactly what you did, but it didn't help.
Nothing felt right. The bed was too stiff, too soft, your clothes too loose or tight, and the music currently playing through your earbuds was doing nothing to help the situation. The night air filtering through the window was too cold and it wasn't enough to stop you feeling hot. It just wasn't making anything better, and your short temper was beginning to show through.
You had tried the whole day to keep your seething to a minimum, and now that it had been all bottled up for most of the day, you couldn't help but feel upset.
Rolling over, you poke Jisung in the back. He's asleep, his back facing you, and you can hear soft snores coming from him. He had come home and sensed immediately that you needed to be left alone. You hadn't talked to him for the whole evening, and now you were both lying in bed, one awake and the other fast asleep.
Finally managing to stir him, Jisung rolls over in bed, hair sticking up at random angles from the tossing and turning. His eyes were half-opened and he blinked at you, trying to see in the dark. The only light in the bedroom came from your phone, which was now abandoned on the bedside.
You felt bad for waking him up, but Jisung didn't seem to mind.
"What's wrong, jagiya?" he says blearily.
"Sorry, Sung," you whisper guiltily, eyes filling with stinging tears. "Just- I can't sleep."
"Hmm? Oh, why?"
You sigh softly, tossing your earphones onto the bedside and turning to face him, trying not to cry. "Nothing was going right and my temper kept flaring up."
Jisung nods, running a hand through his hair and mussing it up further. "I thought you were mad at me, but I just figured you needed space-"
"No, it wasn't you, it could never be you, I just didn't want to end up blowing up on you. I just needed to cool off but I still feel hot and bothered."
Jisung's already moved to turn up the fan and he lays back down on the bed with a "hmphff", wrapping an arm cozily around your waist.
"You know," he croaks thoughtfully, "When I get frustrated in the studio, Chan-hyung and Minho-hyung always make me go to the bathrooms and splash my face with cold water, and then drink something cold. I always pretend like it's cooling me down. You should try it."
Your voice is quiet. "But it's dark."
"I'll come with you."
You get up softly, moving to the bathroom. Jisung follows a lot less gracefully, and he flicks the light on, both of you immediately groaning at the glaring brightness. You run the tap til it turns cold, and splash your face with cold water. Jisung leans against the counter while you dry your face. He grins, eyes half-closed from the sleepiness.
"You feel better now, huh?"
And he's right. You do feel better.
He takes your hand and guides you to the kitchen, lifting you up onto the counter. You protest quietly but he ignores it, opening the freezer and depositing several ice cubes into a glass of water. He waits while you drink it, and hums softly when you poke his cheek, fingers cold from the condensation on the glass. You both steal a couple snacks and eat in the light of the refrigerator before Jisung lifts you from the counter and carries you back to bed.
Despite the cold face wash and the cold water, as well as the snacks, you can already feel your eyelids drooping. You feel yourself being placed back into bed, and you feel all warm and full and content. Or maybe the warm feeling is just from Jisung's arms, which are wrapped securely around your waist, pulling you close and keeping you in the warmth of his embrace.
You sleep.

pairing: yang jeongin x reader
summary: you help jeongin choose his outfit of the day
genre: non-idol! au, lil bit of crack, just chill tbh
a/n: no one say anything about the hasty shoe choices in this fic
"How about these? Which one?"
Jeongin holds up a pair of denim jeans and a pair of baggy, black cargo shorts. He grins as you pull an overexaggerated thinking face. The bedroom is disheveled, every surface (including the floor) strewn with heaps of clothing articles and accessories.
You and Jeongin are in various stages of undress, trying on different outfits and mixing-and-matching each other's belongings. You're dressed in your own pair of shorts and one of Jeongin's ridiculously oversized hoodies, the sleeves going about twenty centimetres past your fingertips (though he is pretty tall in comparison to you, to be fair).
Jeongin's in a white t-shirt and a pair of basketball shorts, one of your favourite lace-tipped socks on his left foot and a thick, black sock on the other. He's been messing around all morning, trying to style outfits, and you'd been roped into it.
Not that you minded.
Jeongin pouts as you suddenly snatch the pair of denim jeans, tossing them somewhere onto the floor.
"Aw, why not the denim?"
You snicker. "You look too much like Felix. He's always wearing denim."
"Not like anyone can tell the difference," he rolls his eyes and drops to his knees, digging around. You know he's talking about Changbin. Jeongin lets out a triumphant "a-ha" as his hand resurfaces holding a crossbody bag, checkered in black and white. You grin just as he fastens it around his waist. He looks ridiculous. Mainly because of the pretty, girly sock on his foot. That, and his shorts don't match.
"Innie, take the sock off, and put this on," you hand him a pair of long black shorts to him and he groans.
"I've changed bottoms almost a hundred times-"
"You're the one who dragged me into doing this in the first place. Don't complain."
He whines but puts the shorts on. You glance at his feet pointedly and he very reluctantly takes both mismatched socks off, replacing them with a pair of white Nike socks. The whole outfit looks a lot more coordinated now.
"That looks a lot better, Innie."
"Do you think so? It's still missing something."
"Shoes, pabo."
"Oh, right!"
Jeongin disappears into the hallway, and you can hear him padding to the shoe cupboard. A loud bang follows, and a couple of thumps. There's several minutes of faint scuffling, and Jeongin scurries back into the room, breathless but holding a suitable pair of black sneakers.
You roll your eyes. "Did you make a mess?"
He looks away pointedly, hurriedly. "Just- fixed some things."
You sigh, not even remotely surprised, and wait as he slips the sneakers on, haphazardly tying the laces. He straightens and runs a hand through his hair, glancing at you expectantly.
You laugh. "It looks great."
"Does it?"
You nod, moving to pick items of clothing up off the floor. You're stopped suddenly and pushed back onto the bed, the oversized hoodie sleeves flapping as you fight to rebalance. You huff up at Jeongin with a confused, slightly haughty expression.
"What are you doing?"
Jeongin grins. "My turn to pick your outfit."
"No!"

You get up softly, moving to the bathroom. Jisung follows a lot less gracefully, and he flicks the light on, both of you immediately groaning at the glaring brightness. You run the tap til it turns cold, and splash your face with cold water. Jisung leans against the counter while you dry your face. He grins, eyes half-closed from the sleepiness.
"You feel better now, huh?"
And he's right. You do feel better.
He takes your hand and guides you to the kitchen, lifting you up onto the counter. You protest quietly but he ignores it, opening the freezer and depositing several ice cubes into a glass of water. He waits while you drink it, and hums softly when you poke his cheek, fingers cold from the condensation on the glass. You both steal a couple snacks and eat in the light of the refrigerator before Jisung lifts you from the counter and carries you back to bed.
Despite the cold face wash and the cold water, as well as the snacks, you can already feel your eyelids drooping. You feel yourself being placed back into bed, and you feel all warm and full and content. Or maybe the warm feeling is just from Jisung's arms, which are wrapped securely around your waist, pulling you close and keeping you in the warmth of his embrace.
You sleep.

summary: seungmin's sick and you try to take care of him
genre: fluff, idol! au, descriptions of having an illness (obvs), sick seungmin :(
a/n: everyone say it with me, my fics are yet again... not proofread ! yay ! (no one's surprised)
You shut the apartment door and hurriedly slip your shoes off, depositing your bag on the table and moving through to the hallway. You half-undress as you go, loosening your tie and almost tripping trying to pull one of your socks off. Finally making it to the bedroom, you glance at the bed, hair half-hanging down, your tie and pins a cluttered mess in the palm of your hand.
"Seung?" you say softly.
A muffled groan sounds from under the rumpled duvet. Seungmin's head pops up into view, hair ruffled every which way, and your heart twinges. He must have been tossing and turning for most of the morning.
He sits up with some difficulty, the mattress under the blankets a mess of crumpled tissues. He's taken his hoodie and sweats off, and you can see some of his hair plastered to his nape. Sighing and moving to turn the fan on, you direct it at him in a gentle flow and move to sit on the end of the bed.
You place a hand against his forehead. "You were fine yesterday, hmm? What happened?"
Seungmin groans, clearly not pleased with the prospect of being ill. "Just felt ill this morning, and next thing I know, Chan-hyung is manhandling me out of the studio. And then he told you that I was sick. Such a snitch."
You push his shoulder gently. "Don't get mad at him for caring about your wellbeing. Better to heal now than work while you're sick and end up feeling even worse."
Seungmin groans and flops onto the bed again, his hair mussing even more. You touch his bare chest lightly, reassuring; it's covered in a thin sheen of sweat, and the skin feels like it's burning.
Probably a good thing Chan told me, you think. He must be feeling really ill if even the fan isn't helping cool him down.
"You're burning up, Seung-"
"I'm sorry I distracted you from work."
His sudden apology comes as a surprise; Seungmin isn't really one to apologise or talk about his feelings much. The sudden admission makes your mouth press into a thin line.
"It's not your fault, okay? You're ill. And I'm glad Chan called me. You must be feeling terrible with a fever like this."
He responds with a muffled whine, burying his head in the sheets. His arm moves to fling itself dramatically over the side of the bed. You chuckle and pat his forearm softly, moving to get up.
"I'll go get the medicine, okay?" you pick up his half-empty waterbottle from the bedside table. "Drink that while you wait, and stop pulling the duvet over your head, it'll only make you feel worse."
A high-pitched, mimicking, whiny lilt comes from under the covers, and you punch the sheets lightly, not enough to cause any damage, but still making Seungmin yelp. A smirk makes its way onto your face.
"You're well enough to make fun of me, so I should just leave, then-"
"No- wait.."
You chuckle and pat the duvet, pulling it down to reveal his sweaty, flushed face. You stand and begin moving towards the door, intending to go fetch medicine and a snack for him.
"Give me a minute. I'll be right back, okay?"
a/n: this is so rushed i'm sorry

summary: you and leeknow go to the rescue shelter
genre: fluff, non-idol! au, cats, not proofread, brief mentions of an injury, yes i know writing leeknow fics about cats is very typical but it's so wholesome
a/n: almost to 100 !
"Minho, look at this one!"
You grin and jump up and down on the spot, moving to tug your boyfriend away from the rescue shelter's notice board. You pull him over to the cages to stare through the bars. He blinks, and a big-eyed black cat stares right back.
"Little thing," he muses, poking a finger through the cage bars. The cat hisses wildly and swipes at Minho, drawing a thin, clean line of blood on his palm.
You let out an "oh!" of dismay and tug his hand out, but Minho doesn't blink, not even when you use your sleeve to wipe away the scarlet liquid. He simply blinks again before poking his unoccupied hand through the bars again, trying to tug his injured hand out of your grip.
"Stop it, you're hurt!"
"It's just a scratch."
You huff, keeping a firm grip on his wrist, trying insistently to get him to listen. As expected, he doesn't, simply looking at you with a dismissive sigh and turning his attention back to the cat, which is now a fluffy, frightened ball, backing up against the far end of its cage. Minho lowers his voice, speaking in a quiet, reassuring voice to the cat. You fight a smile.
"You know," he says softly to the frightened ball of dark fluff, "I have three cats at home. Soonie, Doongie, and Dori. They've scratched me lots of times, especially when I first got them. I'm not mad that you scratched me. It's okay."
Your heart melts as a smile pushes its way onto your lips. It's cute that he's talking to it, but-
"Minho, it's a cat. I'm not sure it understands-"
"It does," he says softly.
And sure enough, the dark fur of the cat is no longer ruffled and raised. It's crept up to the bars of the cage, inquisitively tilting its head at Minho, who tilts his own in return. He grins.
"See?" he says triumphantly. "It does understand."
You hum affectionately and bend down a little to peer into the cat's eyes, still holding Minho's cut hand. They're a rich, pretty shade of blue, a bit like opals, and they catch the light as they tilt to your face. You smile a little and reach out a finger, letting the cat sniff it curiously.
You've made up your mind. "Let's get this one."
Minho nods, smiling. He stands up, looking to the volunteer, and asks for the adoption paperwork. She runs off to get it. He turns back to the cat, who's now pawing at the bars of his cage, purring up at Minho.
"He's beautiful, isn't he?" he says softly, tone hushed.
You nod. "Pretty eyes."
Minho chuckles, tapping the cage door lightly. "We'll get him home soon enough. Oh, and Y/n?"
"Yeah?"
"You can let go of my hand now."
a/n: hmmm not sure if i like it but i need to write more fics for minho TT

summary: you and jeongin try and bake something together
genre: non-idol! au, crack, domestic vibes, too much flour, disgustingly sweet fluff warning
a/n: innie... please stay out of the kitchen
The kitchen was already in chaos.
Flour dusted the countertops, and a mix of ingredients cluttered every available surface. You stood next to Jeongin, both of you staring down at the cookbook with furrowed brows. What was supposed to be a simple recipe had quickly turned into a confusing puzzle.
“Are you sure we’re supposed to add this much flour?” Jeongin asked, scratching his head as he peered into the mixing bowl. The dough looked… questionable, to say the least.
“I don’t know, but that’s what the recipe says,” you replied, unsure yourself. You flipped through the pages, hoping you had missed a step, but everything seemed to be in order—well, mostly.
Jeongin hesitated for a second before dumping more flour into the bowl. “I mean, how hard can it be, right?”
It turns out, it was much harder than either of you expected. The dough was either too sticky or too dry, and at one point, the two of you were covered in flour, laughing uncontrollably at how much of a mess you had made. The kitchen had become a battleground, with ingredients scattered like casualties.
Jeongin tried to salvage the situation by kneading the dough, but it stuck to his fingers like glue.
“Uh, I think it’s alive,” he joked, shaking his hands to try and free himself from the sticky dough. You couldn’t help but burst into laughter, grabbing a towel to help him out.
“Maybe we should’ve just ordered takeout, Innie,” you teased, watching as he finally managed to get the dough off his hands.
But despite the disaster unfolding, there was something fun about it. Jeongin’s laughter was contagious, and even though the two of you were terrible at following recipes, it didn’t seem to matter. You were just enjoying the moment, trying to cook together and making memories (very messy memories).
After what felt like an eternity, you both managed to get the dough somewhat under control and into the oven. You exchanged glances, a mixture of pride and amusement on your faces as you cleaned up the flour-covered countertops.
“Next time, we’ll nail it,” Jeongin said, a playful smirk on his lips. “But I’m pretty sure this time… we’re getting cookies that taste like bread. Or worse. I'll call Chan-hyung to tell him to keep the hospital on hold. We'll probably get food poisoning.”
You grinned, swatting him, knowing he was probably right, but that wasn’t what mattered. What mattered was that the two of you had fun.
Cooking disasters and all.

summary: you join jisung for a producing session
genre: fluff, idol! au, comfort, crack, chill jisung
a/n: han would be so much fun to produce with and you can't change my mind
The producing studio was filled with the soft hum of equipment as you sat across from Jisung, both of you focused intensely on the computer screen. The blank canvas of the rather large music project felt daunting, but Jisung’s limitless energy was infectious, putting you at ease. He'd come into the studio with two iced Americanos, a million-watt smile, a pair of cute glasses, and a head full of amazing ideas.
Only the 4th gen ace, you had thought to yourself amusedly as he'd settled down.
“Okay, let’s try something new,” Jisung suggested, his eyes lighting up as he adjusted his headphones. He took a swig of his iced Americano before setting it down carefully on the side table. “I want to hear what you’ve got.”
You hesitated, unsure if your ideas were on par with his. But Jisung, ever the encourager, nudged you gently.
“There’s no right or wrong here, yeah? It’s about creating something that feels like us. Something that feels unique and special.”
You nodded, picking up your bass, hands a little clammy, and tentatively played a chord progression you had been working on. To your complete and utter surprise, Jisung’s face broke into a grin.
“That’s fire!” he exclaimed, fingers already moving over his keyboard to add a beat.
The time seemed to blur and fly by as the two of you worked together, layering melodies and harmonies, Jisung with practiced, flowing ease, and you with slight hesitance and intrigue. Jisung hummed softly for a few seconds, then suddenly broke into a rap, the flow raw and unpolished but electric, his hands waving energetically in what you could only assume was a flurry of rapper gestures. You couldn’t help but laugh at the unfamiliarity of his movements.
“Don’t laugh! I’m serious,” he teased, but his eyes twinkled with amusement. The atmosphere was light and collaborative, professional yet comfortable, filled with shared laughter, occasional banter, and back-and-forth teasing.
Hours passed without notice, but the track was taking shape. The sounds you created together were vibrant, a reflection of your combined, juxtaposing music styles and tastes. Jisung leaned back, so far incredibly satisfied with the progress.
“See?” he said softly, a satisfied smile on his lips. “We make a great team.”
You couldn’t help but agree as you looked at him, realizing that not only was he an incredible artist and producer, but someone who made the process feel like magic. He was so easy to work with and talk to, taking your ideas on board and adding his own flair to it while allowing your unique visions to shine throughout.
You made a mental note to gatecrash 3RACHA's producing sessions more often in the future.

summary: hyunjin lets you do his nails
genre: fluff, idol! au, comfort, i know nothing about doing nails btw, crack at the end
a/n: hyunjin, just one chance, let me do your nails PLEASEEE
"Hyunjin, stay still-"
"I'm trying..."
You sigh and readjust yourself on the floorboards, trying not to jolt Hyunjin's slender, pretty hand, which is currently covered in several tiny smears of nail polish around his cuticles. He's whining as you tell him to stay still, and you fight a smile at the lilting, childlike tone in his voice.
Lifting the brush applicator, you carefully paint three, neat, dark strokes down his middle finger nail, working until you reach his pinky finger. Guiding his hand to the mini UV light you gifted for his birthday, you move to his other hand, before recapping the little glass bottle.
"What do you want drawn on them?"
Hyunjin smiles softly, his previous tantrum simmering down. "Anything you want. But it has to look super cool. I want Stay to see it."
You grin and get up, moving to the vanity, where you pull out a small case and return to Hyunjin's side. He's busy curing his other hand now, and he watches intently with a small smirk as you open the case. You pull out a tiny nail art brush, a bottle of silver chrome polish, and several metallic eyeshadows. You set them down in an orderly line and Hyunjin immediately moves to cheekily mess it up, rearranging the bottles and eyeshadows, the disorder now matching the rest of the room and the floor around you both.
There's a mess of different nail polish shades and tools scattering the floorboards, and you and Hyunjin half-lie down in the mess, limbs awkwardly positioned to avoid knocking anything over.
You carefully pull out his hand from the UV curer light and inspect each nail, gingerly tapping each one to check if the polish is dried. His nails are now a deep, solid black, the surface smooth and unmarred, and you smile in satisfaction at the neatness. His other hand's nails are just as perfect.
Picking up the chrome polish and thin brush, you detail tiny, Y2K style waves and lines over every second nail, leaving his thumbs. Hyunjin watches with an amused smile on his face as you meticulously refine each stroke with the tool, hand close to shaking with how focused you are. The room is quiet and silent, save for Hyunjin's slight shuffling as he waits for you to finish. You move to his other hand while he cures the first.
While he waits for his second hand to dry, you pick up one of your unused makeup brushes and brush a silvery eyeshadow from the top of each nail, creating an ombre effect on every other nail. You do a little for his thumb, leaving majority of the dark nail for the design you have in mind.
Brushing away the excess, you move to his other hand, and Hyunjin lets out a little 'ooh', apparently pleased with the style.
Smiling once more, you pick up the chrome and draw a tiny, silvery star on his thumbnails, writing 'STAY' in tiny, bold letters underneath. You detail the letters 'SKZ' on his middle fingers, curing them quickly before letting him inspect his digits. He kisses your forehead and tells you he loves them.
Later, both of you head to the JYP building, with Hyunjin saying that he needed to rerecord some of his lines for a song. As soon as he skips into the recording studio, he's excitedly shoving his nails into everyone's faces, wanting his members to see his new set, designed and created by you. Han lets out an enraged shriek, questioning why you're not on the stylist team, and you flush at the praise. Chan nods approvingly (though you suspect it's only because of the black element) and Felix and Changbin crowd around Hyunjin, fighting to see the chrome detailing, the smooth black polish, and the silvery stars and lettering that spell out 'SKZ' and 'STAY'.
You catch Minho's eyes, his eyebrows raised, and you grin just as you hold up your hands, where your nails are decorated the exact same.
