What do you do when you feel like you found the one?  That one person you can completely let all your guards down with. Some decide to rush fully into something with them, others are too afraid to even jump from the shore. When people let themselves fall in love, they let their guards down somehow.

That's how falling for Seungcheol felt like, it wasn’t something too rushed, but you grew confident around each other pretty fast for two people that didn’t really know each other for long.

You first saw him going around campus, and you just noticed how he was always when two other guys that you supposed were his friends. At first, you preferred watching it all from the sidelines, deciding that it was better if you didn’t get too close to them, also considering that they had enough girls going all over them. 

Whenever the three of them crossed paths with you, you would always linger on their walking figures, noting how they had an infatuating aura going around. Maybe the girls were crazy for them for a reason.

But you never noticed how Seungcheol would also look your way when he was far enough, paying attention to you silently.

And for that your friends, Mingyu and Seungkwan, would always tease you: "Are you sure Seungcheol and you don't have like a secret relationship or anything?"

You would deny it and justify your stares by saying that he wore such comfy outfits and that you thought about getting a hoodie like his. None of them bought your lie though, knowing how bad you were at lying.

Maybe denying the small crush, which you weren't going to act about, you had developed for the older guy was something that wouldn't really help you forget about him.

You weren't expecting him to approach you at your favourite coffee shop though. "Hello, is this seat taken?"

You couldn't believe your eyes, was the Choi Seungcheol really talking to you? Glancing up you replied to his - quite random - question "Oh, no, but there's another table-" You couldn't really finish your sentence, because he was already sitting down across from you. Smiling at you and letting you see his gummy smile and crescent moon eyes.

"Thank you, Y/N. I really appreciate having some company, especially yours."

Boom, boom, boom. Was that your heart ringing in your ears? Why was he flirting with you so blatantly?

"Are you that straightforward with every girl you talk to?" His bluntness didn't make you uncomfortable, but maybe a bit nervous, since you usually never received any compliments from other people that weren't your friends.

"I try not to, but I find you quite interesting, so I thought that I might as well get to know you a bit better" he winked at you. Did he have to be so flirty? You were trying to keep your heartbeat under control, having someone flirt with you wouldn't help your hopeless romantic self.

Actually, you usually kept it in check, since Seungkwan and Mingyu always brought your feet down when necessary. But, right now, Seungcheol was playing with the strings of your heart.

Coming back to reality, you decided to cut his act: "As long as you let me work in silence, you can stay"

"Sure, angel" he winked at you, again.

"And don't call me angel, please"

"Alright, Y/N"

You kept reading your book and noting things down, but from time to time, you tried to take a quick glance at the figure across from you. Surprisingly, he kept quiet the whole time, something you really appreciated, considering this coffee shop was your safe haven when you needed to hide for a little bit. How did Seungcheol know that you were here, though?

"May I ask something?" being taken by surprise, you noticed how he looked up from his phone the instant he heard your voice.

"Go ahead"

"How did you know I was here? Only two people from campus know I come here." You only confided in Seungkwan and Mingyu to let them know that if they couldn't find you, you most likely were here.

"Well, sometimes when I pass by I see you from the outside" he confessed "But I decided to say hi today for the first time, I didn't really want to look like a stalker. I don't look like one, do I?" 

"No, not really, but it did take me by surprise, considering we never spoke before and I'm not the most known person on campus or anything"

He moved his gaze from you to the window before speaking up again: "Well, it doesn't matter whether you're known or not, I want to spend time with and get to know you"

"Sure thing you do..." you muttered under your breath.

You both stayed like that for a while, he was just keeping you company, and from time to time your stolen glances were a habit of yours he picked up, looking at you from time to time too.

It was almost 9 pm when you decided you were done for the day, and ready to head home. "Hey, Seungcheol, thanks for the company. I'm going to be heading home now, it was nice seeing you" 

You tried to leave as fast as you could, but he grabbed your wrist before you took a turn to leave: "You're just going to leave without letting me accompany you home? Am I that scary?" Like a deer in headlights, he caught you. Scary? No, he wasn't scary at all, but his presence was numbing your senses and you weren't sure how much more time you could spend this close to him without turning to putty.

"Scary? You wished. I just want to get home quickly, take a shower and have some dinner before bed."

"Let me keep you company though, I'm not going to let you walk around all alone at this hour" he seemed serious, so you guessed it couldn't be that bad if he was alongside you on the way home.

"Alright, but which way is your house? I don't want you to go the opposite way or anything"

"It's fine, we live in the same neighbourhood anyway" He took you by surprise, how did he know that? You didn't want to press on, but that kind of sparked your curiosity, was he paying attention to you from time to time too?

"Okay then" you both left the cafeteria, your wrist no longer being held by his hand, but you felt all the electricity it left behind.

For some reason, even if rush hour was over, the underground was busier than most days, which left you no choice but to stand awfully close to Seungcheol. His strong perfume and closeness was, yet again, numbing your senses to the point that you were dissociating.

What if you said something about it? About how good his hair looks? Would it be the start of something?

You guessed that it was better not to do anything,  thinking he would find you weird and disturbing. Feeling nervousness creeping into your cheeks, you moved a little, getting a bit closer to him.

"You're kinda cute, do you know that?" he whispered into your ear from behind.

You had no time to reply to it, since you just got to your stop. So, instead of saying anything about it, you jumped out of the train, kind of hoping he wouldn't follow you.

Unfortunately, while you were taking out your underground card, you saw him from the side of your eye. “I said I would accompany you home, and that is what I’m going to do, so don’t run away from me, please?”

Finding it hard to retort his question, you just gulped and nodded, extremely aware of his eyes staring straight into your soul. 

“Now let’s go, we need to get you home safe and sound” he decided to grab your hand just so you wouldn’t try to run away from him again.

You noticed how his hand was bigger than yours, engulfing it and keeping it warm. Was the action making you feel warm in other places too? Seungcheol’s touch was electrifying, and for some reason, your heart was hoping that he was feeling that electricity running along his body too. 

The walk to your apartment from the underground station wasn’t really long, but having someone accompany you for sure did something to ease the anxiety of having to go back home at night. You two didn’t really talk much while walking, but felt comfortable nevertheless.

Once you got to the door of your apartment building, you turned around and looked Seungcheol in the eyes, flushing when you noticed that he was looking at you too. He was making you feel like such a  flustered mess.

“Thanks for keeping me company, Seungcheol”

“It’s no problem, we can even do this more often if you’d like” he shrugged, “I like spending time with you, anyways”

“Is this where you confess your undying love to me?” you took all the courage that you could possibly have within your body and decided to say something that was a double edged sword. Were you going to get cut?

“So you want me to confess how I’ve been unable to take my eyes off you at any chance I see you on campus?” you choked on your own saliva, not expecting this back and forth with him to end like this. “Because I can do it, I just don’t think you would believe me.”

Would you not? He really didn’t know that every single detail of any interaction the two of you might have had in the past could make you write a whole chapter on how the tingling sensation was growing each day. But you wouldn’t confess that, not even to your friends. 

You weren’t a really stoic person, but some things and situationships in life made you suppress your feelings, just in case anyone was coming with their guns pointing at your heart, ready to aim at any moment. So, for you, it was better to just build some walls around your heart in order to protect it.

“I might or might not believe you, but I’ll let you guess” you winked, taking all the courage possible to be subtle and leave him wanting more “Tomorrow, around 4pm, I’ll be at the cafeteria again, if you feel like keeping me company again. So see you tomorrow?”

“You’ll see me, I’m sure of it” he winked at you too, making your heart jump again.

You might need to keep your heart inside a cage if you were going to meet Choi Seungcheol more often.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You woke up in the middle of the night because of a nightmare, and desperately searched for the person that was sleeping beside you. Feeling the coldness in the spot that he was supposed to be, you got anxious, thinking he had left you. 

“Mingyu? Baby?” you asked, hoping that he was near you.

After not getting a reply, getting up, you picked up a blanket and wrapped it around your body, winter was being really cold these days. Looking around the apartment, you noticed that all of the lights in the living room were off, but looking to your right side you saw a dim light coming from Mingyu’s office.

You looked at the clock that was hanging on the wall, what was he doing at 4 am? Curiosity got the best of you, so instead of going back to bed, you decided to peek just a little.

Opening the door a bit more and trying to be as quiet as possible, you saw him on his computer, being all concentrated while looking at the screen. He had his headphones on, so that’s why he didn’t reply earlier.

Sitting down on the sofa that was next to your bookcase, one that he built for you to keep some of your favourite books in there, you decided to just sit there while he was doing his thing. Being alone wasn’t the best feeling after your nightmare.

After some time passed, Mingyu brought his hands to his face, feeling frustrated because the video he was editing wasn’t going as planned. He spinned around in his chair, noticing you were curled up and fast asleep on the sofa. His gaze softened when he noticed how comfortable you looked while sleeping, and decided that he did enough video editing for the day (or night). 

He walked up to the sofa and layed down on his knees to be face to face with you, gently caressing your face with his warm hands. “Did you miss me, baby?” He knew you weren’t going to answer because of your sleepy state, and decided to keep looking at your face, noticing all of the small details of it, from your freckles to your long eyelashes.

Considering how late it was, he thought you would be fast asleep and that there wasn’t any problem with leaving you in bed while he did some work; but you probably noted his absence at some point since you would always cling to him while sleeping. 

You looked so at peace sleeping now, but he knew that if you stayed on the couch you would wake up complaining about your neck hurting, so he decided that picking you up and going back to bed carefully to not wake you up was the best option.

But before he even tried to pick you up, you were already complaining because he stopped touching you. ��Why did you stop? Your hand was really warm and soft…” whining a little as usual, he melted at your soft voice.

“I was going to take you to bed with me, don’t you want to sleep in a more comfortable place?” He said while smiling

“But I was comfy here” you pouted and he pecked you softly. “I might change my mind if you kiss me some more, though”.

Hearing his soft chuckle, you smiled a bit before getting up just so he could pick you up more easily, Mingyu was big enough and strong enough to carry you bridal style as if it was nothing much, but it was easier to pick you up if you were sitting down instead.

“Why did you leave the bed?” you asked before you both left his office. “I was trying to hug you but you left and it kind of scared me not seeing you there.”

Pouting again, you rested your head on his shoulder, waiting for his reply.

“I couldn’t sleep so I decided to come into my office to at least be a bit productive, you know I find it hard to concentrate when I got you right by my side” he smiled at you and you understood what he meant, you were very clingy with him, and any time you both would be in the office, you had the need to stay close to him, something that made it hard to work for him. “Not that I’m blaming you or anything, I just love having you close to me too much for my well being.”

“You better not…”

“Why are you awake by the way? I thought you’d be in dreamland by now” He asked worriedly.

“I mean, yeah, but I had a nightmare and you were there and then my anxiety made me think about a hundred different reasons why you could’ve left me, so I came looking for you, and decided to just watch you while you worked; but I guess I was too tired to stay up watching you silently” you calmly explained, feeling a lot calmer now that he was by your side. “And you know the noises that you were making made me fall asleep without even realising”

Closing your eyes again, you smiled to yourself, knowing Mingyu was probably watching your reaction.

“I’m sorry I wasn’t there for you when you needed me, baby. Do you want to go to bed now? I promise I won’t leave you until morning.”

Humming happily you agreed. “Okay, but, can we wake up later than usual tomorrow? I wanna cuddle with you for the rest of the night” you asked while he was leaving you on the bed.

He nodded, going to his side of the bed to lay right by your side. “Sure, I don’t feel like waking up early tomorrow either.”

Feeling a lot calmer than when you woke up, you happily rested your head on his chest, feeling his arm come around you to hug you. “I love you so much, Gyu.”

“I love you too, baby” he kissed you goodnight before you closed your eyes. “Now go to sleep, I’ll be right next to you when you wake up, I promise.”
