jay park thought he could have the most regular morning by making some coffee until he was proven terribly wrong by the kids he was in charge of.

so one saturday morn’, jaebeom was in the kitchen making a nice jug of coffee when minjun sauntered in with jeans down to his thighs and superman boxers up to his hipbones, all revealed for the show to its stunning glory. now the fan might’ve been screamin’, “PRAISE DA LOOOOORD, HOLLAAAA” at a sight like that but jaebeom was no fan, and he was rubbin’ his eyes real hard, unable to believe such a scene he’d just witnessed. his brain was no liar though, because it replayed the whole thing again in the leadja mind, rolling the tape back to when minjun swung open the door and stuck one leg out in swag fashion, all the way to the end when minjun had waddled, waddled, waddled across the kitchen floor with stern eyes and shit, and then swung the bathroom door close.

chansung waited in the rain for too long until he spotted his friend's car and immediately got in. he'd never predict that he'd thank the rain.

it began to rain on that sunday afternoon, and though chansung did not hate the rain, the cold pelting raindrops made it hard for him to stand under the tree and wait for his friend to pick him up. for the hundredth time, chansung checked his phone to see if junho had texted him, but there were no notifications and chansung was left to make a decision to either stand (dangerously) under the tree as the rain began the pour cats and dogs or walk half a mile back to the mall where he had spent his day shopping with wooyoung.

pg. nichkhun/wooyoung. 1,502w.
nichkhun and wooyoung play with fire and they both knew it was dangerous.

let me tell you a story.

this took place in the dark because nichkhun was too lazy and too afraid to turn on the light. they broke into a cafe at exactly 1:47am.

to be more exact, only wooyoung did because when he suggested the idea, nichkhun laughed at him. so wooyoung went alone. he shattered the window with his elbow, felt badass about it when he stuck his arm carefully past the broken shards and reached around for the door knob on the other side. he unlocked it and let himself inside. it was too dark but he didn't want to get caught. so he found a table after stumbling into some chairs and sat down.

un
Chansung, this is Junho. I know leaving abruptly during dinner was not okay—I know, I really do, and it doesn’t help my case at all, but you have to listen. You’ll understand right? I met this guy. Moonful eyes, cherry blossom lips, and there’s more, but I can’t explain... because there’s no time. The best thing about him is how his gazes and words are secrets, only for me. I don’t know if he notices the small little details, like the way I do with him.

taecyeon wrote an informational guide, in which he revealed there was more than what met the eye (much to his own delight).

The guide to never date Minjun and why.
Written by Ok Taecyeon

I. green sucks.
Your boyfriend will never wear matching clothing with you. Don’t even think about couple clothing. And don’t even try to wear matching colors, especially green. He’s going to tell you green looks absolutely atrocious because “it’s not swaggy enough.” You’re going to feel hurt and depressed and then you’ll feel like, goddamn, why do I love him? And you’re right. Why do you love him? Things like these happen all the time, because arguments and disagreements are inevitable. But the one thing you can avoid, is the aftermath. Just because he tells you that green is the worst possible color to wear in the world, and that he prefers yellow, or blue, or red, just any color other than green, doesn’t mean you should stay with him. But most of us are all stupid anyhow, and since you love him, you just have to deal with it. All you have to do is suck it up, go to your closet and burn all your clothing. Maybe you feel like he’s being biased. Maybe you think the color he dislikes is only because you wear it. And you’re absolutely right. That’s the exact reason why he hates it. If his certain close “brother” like Nichkhun or Wooyoung wore green, then he’d approve of such a wonderful swaggy and dope color because it works well on them. Not on you. So you can’t ever wear green. So just remember to go to your closet and burn all your clothing, especially the green ones. Then maybe, he’ll acknowledge your existence.

everything that could possibly go wrong does go wrong, until junho met the angel who would change his life.

The first time Junho was instructed to sing in front of the judges, that didn’t really go well. One of the experienced trainees elbowed Junho,  the moment he stepped onto stage. Junho stumbled, his footing couldn’t hold up against gravity, and the audience, with ballooned eyes, watched Junho lurch offstage, in slow motion. Everyone waited on the edge of their seats to see if Junho would get up himself. But when the wait stretched on forever, they realized it wasn’t a joke. So, someone rushed down to help him. With much commotion, Junho managed to get himself up and the crowd gasped at the sight of his face, drenched in streaming tears and dripping blood. His pristine white shirt was stained in blood red, and when he turned around to flee from the scene, the audience burst into explosive laughter. His pant seam had been torn.

( his mind was playing tricks on himCollapse )

pg-13. nichkhun-centric (wooyoung's pov). 2,354w.
dark was the mind of wooyoung, as he battled raw emotions, vivid hallucinations, and fatal truths about nichkhun. deception tasted worse than their dessert.

"The person I loved the most saved me,” he said. And when I looked at his hand, his ring finger banded by marriage, I realized he wasn't pointing at me, he was pointing at a smiling woman.

r. chansung/junho. 1,311w.
so it was not the dinner junho planned, but it was something better. best thing about it, chansung loved it.

Friday night was the day off for them that week and Junho had this great idea and impressive talent he wanted to show off. So Chansung found himself sitting on a stool by the counter, tapping his fingers on the surface. He placed his chin in the palm of his hand and smiled in amusement while watching Junho attempt to make dinner for the two of them. Somehow, this was where the great and impressive talent was hidden, that Chansung had been waiting and looking forward to. But now, he wasn’t so sure.

( he hated walls more than anythingCollapse )

r. nichkhun/wooyoung. 424w.
something inside of wooyoung broke and he just couldn't stand it anymore.

the day wooyoung met eternal damnation was the day he caught the eyes of nichkhun. brown, deer-like, and so disgusting because it was animalistic and wooyoung hated fake gorgeous creatures that walked on two legs. it was a tortuous hypnosis because wooyoung didn’t want to get lured or dragged by that stupid fucked up thing called love. it happened anyway, and nichkhun found it really amusing. especially when nichkhun smiled, there was a smug look about it that wooyoung wanted to march up to him and smack his face hard. so hard that teeth and bloodied spittle would fly out and there’d be a red stinging imprint across the cheek. that’s what you get you fucking bastard, wooyoung wanted to say. no, not say, he’d scream and shout it at the top of his lungs. but for now, he’d watch (helplessly) as nichkhun grabbed his wrists and lead him to the bedroom, where, as always, he’d succumb to nichkhun’s soft caresses that fucking mocked him for being weak because he couldn’t say no, ever.

pg. taecyeon/chansung. 2,323w.
in which taecyeon went out of his way to express that fluttery feeling in his stomach, to the one person who mattered the most.

Taecyeon sighed dreamily while staring at his phone. He couldn’t contain the bubbling giggles in his throat and so he rolled around in his bed until the covers got caught within his arms and legs and now he was in a tight blanket-roll. Then he rolled the blanket right off of him, lying flat on his stomach and he reached around him to flatten the mountains and valleys ruffling the fabric’s surface.

( acting like a dumb lovestruck foolCollapse )

pg-13. wooyoung/junho, nichkhun/wooyoung. 945w.
wooyoung does not want to admit that there were two very attractive things that made things heated for him. nichkhun and junho knew it all too well.

There were only two things that bothered Wooyoung. Apart from the dense mind he had, Wooyoung refused to embrace the fact that Thing One had rivulets of sweat trekking through the back of his shirt. Or the fact that his mind wasn’t doing anything to help his body’s reactions, because a single glance at Thing One blossomed into heated ideas.
