Hello!!! I really like your svt imagines/headcanons could I request a neighbor!moonbin thing? Thank you so much ^^

neighbour!moonbin!! + awkward first meetings

you swear you transported in the last box like,,,,,twenty boxes ago 

this is it, you think, moving has officially become your arch-nemesis

but you swear you’ve already said this like,,,,,twenty houses ago

because of your parent’s business, moving every six months or so is nothing new 

and with every move, there’s a new set of neighbours for you to meet and forget even exist 

the last neighbours were a couple in their 70s whos apartment smelled just …. like old people  

the ones before that were a couple in their 20s who were,,,,active,,, to say the least 0-0 

the ones before that were a family of three that always asked to borrow a frying pan or spoon or bowl and just never returned it

the ones before that had a dog that almost bit off your bike handle and barked at anything that moved 

so you were used to having rlly rlly rlly weird people living beside you all the time 

your new neighbours this time, however, aren’t home as you move in and even after you get settled in, you don’t see them for a while 

the first meeting however

YIKES

your mom had called and said she’d be home in about 5 minutes, since she just went to the grocery store across the street to pick up some more side dishes for dinner tonight 

so when you hear a knock at the door later and you’re just in your towel from showering a minute ago

your very small towel 

your very small towel that covers up everything just enough

you’re completely expecting your kind, understanding, punctual mother to stand there holding your precious pickled radish and ready to scold you to put some clothes on

but instea d .

you open the door 

to see  someone who is very much not your mother

who is very much a man, who is very much not expecting you to look like that when you open the door, who is very much holding a bowl of freshly cut fruit as a small welcome gift,,, and who is ,,,, ,very much,, goodlooking 

you yelp loud enough that your cat screeches back in surprise and the very handsome boy at your doorstep does the same 

“wha t T HE FU K–WHO ARE YOU ?!” 

there’s just a jumble of screaming and trying to close the door but his foot is in the way and you jam his foot and then there’s just a jumble of apologizing from both ends and you end up just slamming the door in his face from sheer panic 

you hear a “I’M SO SORRY OH M YOGD” through the door 

and you muster up the courage to say something back

“I’M SORRY TOO,,,,ALSO I CAN’T OPEN THIS DOOR BECAUSE I HONESTLY JUST CAN’T LOOK AT YOU IN THE FACE RIGHT NOW”

“THAT’S FINE, ,, ,,, I JUST WANTED TO INTRODUCE MYSELF AS YOUR NEW NEIGHBOUR,,,,”

he tells you his name is moonbin and his parents wanted to bring over a bowl of fruit as bearing a little offering 

and there’s a little pause before he continues, “which i’m starting to think wasn’t a really good idea,,,,,” 

you find yourself scoffing and then really laughing besides the situation and soon theres a giggle behind the door too 

you tell him to wait a couple seconds as you run and put on some cloThes

honestly if you had more time you’d pick a cute outfit to actually try and make a good impression on this boy who seems pretty sweet? 

but you settle for a hoodie and joggers before you open the door and this time you actually catch a good glimpse of his face

there’s still a slight pink tinge on his cheeks but you swear his face lights up when he sees you 

and your stupid annoying foolish heart does a little something 

you visibly seem him try to gather his bearings and you can’t help but laugh again 

he extends the bowl of fruit and offers his hand as an official introduction this time 

“i’m moonbin, your new neighbour!!” 

you gladly take it “i’m y/n!” 

after you’ve established that this introduction would be the version you’d tell your parents, you find yourself asking him to come in and he can meet your mom who should be here any minute!!

he grabs a seat at your dinner table and before you know it, you guys just chat away 

as he’s talking you kind of,,,,drink in his appearance and how the corners of his mouth perk up when he’s talking and his eyes smile before his lips do and how he nods and absorbs every word you say

you forget you just met 10 minutes ago and it isn’t until your mom opens the door and sees a stranger at her dinner table that you realize ,,,, oh yeah,,,, u just met 10 minutes ago

but you introduce him to your mom who shakes his hand and who admires the pretty little bowl of fruit 

“thanks!! i did it!” he announces cheerfully

your mom offers to have him stay for dinner but he says he has to get back to finish up schoolwork, but maybe tomorrow !! 

you see him to the door and thank him 

“you know,, you’re like the first normal neighbour i’ve had in a really really long time lol”

“yeah? well, you’re not so bad yourself” 

and he smiles

and your knees almost buckle 

so he leaves and turns around and just gives you another small, shy smile before you close the door 

you lean your back against the door and just take a huuUuUUGE breath

what is this i’m FEELING WTF

and it also doesn’t help when you hear your mom go, “so,,,,moonbin huh? ;)” 

*screams at the top of my lungs*  I LOVE MO OON BI I N N N N N 

[imaginingit]

He’ll forever be in our hearts

UM

someone tried to come for me abt hyuck being a pats fan he falls asleep w a brady jersey on and Cries hugging a blue n white fat foam finger square uP

[imaginingit]

high school au!haechan

GUESS WHO’S BACK !! in case you’ve never met anyone that embodies SUCH a typical high schooler like hyuck before, here u go ! may or may not have done the quarterback and band geek trope . i regret nothing 

oh BOY

first of all 

let’s backtrack a little bit and talk about middle school!haechan too cause...,,, dude is a Mess 

was the sketchy one in seventh grade that sold like g-shocks and silly bands at the hill in front of the park every lunch recess 

had a power ranger lunchbox all the way up until he was like 13 lol when yukhei would be like.....hyung......What.

during the summer when the school staff are making up the lists for the classes everyone’s like 

“nO no way he’s in a class with renjun, renjun is the only person he’ll ever be afraid of i can’t have that dispute in my class”

“um. hyuck can’t be in the same class as jisung either...i once saw him try to feed jisung yellow snow saying it was lemon flavoured... poor boy believed him...”

“mark’s mother gifted me a box of chocolates last year with a note thanking me for my hard work and begging her son to be in a different class than hyuck. sorry, guys.”

the principal looks over all the lists and is like UM these are bullshit reasons, just put all of them together, how bad could it be???

ahem. BAD.

every science class starts with chenle and yukhei SCREAMING the bill nye theme song do u guys watch the vlives my GOD i thought chenle was hard to keep up with and nOW THERE’S LUCAS 

dodgeball during phys-ed is just haechan, yukhei and jeno absolutely slaughtering everyone

mark has his headphones in the entire time in art class and if one of the guys try to talk to him he just raises his finger and shushes them

jeno and jaemin flirt 

renjun, chenle and yukhei trying to win jisung over and then ending up just swearing at each other in mandarin 

anyway

has been the football captain since he was at the youngest age that was  eligible to even sign up,,,,, he’s that good 

always always makes mark walk home with him after practice 

so mark just sits on the bleachers with his bio textbook in his lap and glasses slipping down his nose, pages just flying left and right from the wind, bored out of his mind like fUCking hyuck i hate u i hate waiting two hours for practice to end just so you can show me your new pokemon cards at home ffs

everytime there’s practice before school, he’s always the last one to stay on the field, promising coach he just wants to try another long catch

SO because he’s always late this BITch just runs straight to first period with sweaty hair and practice clothes and athletic tape still on his fingers 

renjun: you disgust me.

jaemin: here’s my deodorant. and jeno’s. and jisung’s. here take all of ours take it please just take it oh my gO d

loves this sport more than absolutely anything honestly 

his entire bedroom is just full of patriots posters and banners 

his mom pranked him on his birthday telling him to open the box on his bed with pats tickets inside 

ran upstairs crying hysterically and fucking opened it to find a picture of his siblings going HA YOU THOUGHT 

resented them for the rest of his life 

but this boy also really loves music!!

always performs a ballad every year at the school talent show with jisung doing some sort of contemporary performance

his parents are both fans of old schoolers, like abba & elvis & beatles such, so he grew up with the beautiful combination of football on the tv and ‘mamma mia’ spinning on the record player in the kitchen 

during his final middle school year, he performed a version of his favourite park hyoshin song, and finished with the entire school in uproar, cheering and screaming HYUCK HYUCK HYUCK!!! YES!!!

and so he puts the mic back on the stand and runs down the stage to his teammates waiting in the crowd

so excited and and ready to jump into their arms

only to witness a couple of them standing there motionless and checking their wrists, as if waiting from the start for his performance to be over 

he sees the defensive tackle of his team, some dude that probably shaves twice a day and is beefed BEYOND belief 

“hey man, abt time you’re done, coach wants to run over some plays for next week’s game against yg tech, let’s go”

and that was it

the hoard of guys in letterman jackets pull him into their midst and before he could even complain, they mercilessly make their way to the gym as a group

with renjun, chenle, jaemin, jeno, mark and yukhei all just standing there like ... o ... ok ... we just wanted to congratulate u, hyuck...

donghyuck never brings that moment up ever and the dreamies don’t question (yes lucas is a dreamie square up)

from then on, they notice hyuck’s been humming less and isn’t even commenting about day6′s new releases or how renjun’s grandfather bought a brand new record player from the most expensive record store in their town 

donghyuck continues being the school’s star quarterback and having meetings with minor league scouts every week 

they know it’s a touchy topic and being as close as they are with each other, they don’t pry hyuck about it and knows he’s the type to hold it in but will bring it up when he has to 

but unlike what they all think, hyuck doesn’t explode in anger or spite 

he finally opens up on a regular friday night when mark’s sleeping over after finishing a hefty assignment 

and mark is surprised that he prods on this topic with, not anger or spite, but ,,,,, fear? 

“hey mark.......what if this is the only thing i can do?"

“what do you mean?”

“i don’t want to just be some brainless jock” 

mark is a little... stunned... he’s known him all his life and this is the first time hyuck has shown any sign of fear?? of anything???

mark just scootches in a little closer....”you’re not brainless, and this won’t be the only thing you’ll be good at, i promise”

BUT OF COURSE they never speak of it again hyuck’s just kinda like hahahahahha emotions what ahahahah sadness what ahahhahah

but graduation hits and before the dreamies (and yukhei hehe) know it, it’s time for high school

all the upperclassmen know him and think he’s a little shit but love him anyway, so embraced him and all his friends when they entered 

fascinated by how much wider the hallways are and how BIG  the school actually is 

gets lost MORE FREQUENTLY THAN HE’D LIKE TO EVER ADMIT OUT LOUD .

tryouts for the football team are on like the second day 

was so excited!!!! to play with his close hyungs and co-captains jaehyun and youngho 

coach personally came up to him and was like .... boi it’s so rare for a freshman to be on the varsity team, hERE’S YOUR JERSEY NUMBER AND YOUR LOCKER AND YOUR EQUIPMENT AND YOUR OWN PERSONAL PRACTICE SCHEDULE I’LL WORK AROUND U IT’S OKAY 

is treated automatically like the superstar at the first official practice and honestly doesn’t ..,,know how to handle 

he’s only always been around his middle school friends, aka people he’s known all his life and who know he doesn’t like being smothered 

donghyuck knows he’s good but again, will anyone ever look him past the football?

mark sees all this new attention he’s getting and his heart silently breaks a bit knowing hyuck doesn’t truly want all of this

the football, yes !!! the clout, not really 

but hyuck is a freshman!! and knows he can’t speak up quite yet so he endures this superstar status already bestowed on him and forces his uncomfortable smile away 

it’s ok !! he tells himself

it’s good to be recognized for something you’re good at ..,, right ?

but as years pass and seniors graduate and championships continue to be won, hyuck slowly climbs up the popularity pyramid with it too

so by the first day of senior year, having just recently started getting close with the captain of the cheerleading squad and throwing the biggest party of the summer break as a last hurrah a few days prior, hyuck walks into the high school doors as the talk of the TOWN

all those stereotypical popular pretty boys you see on tv namely um troy bolton um austin ames um finn hudson um scott mccall um YES 

that’s literally him at this point 

loved by all students for being a social butterfly and not ??? an asshole ??? to those that aren’t as popular

teachers adore him cause he participates in class and always hands assignments in on time despite his student schedule and always gifts them little holiday baskets at the end of every semester

renjun had junior year chem with him and almost threw his paper out the window when he saw hyuck’s mark

“how are you this good ,,,,,,,, when you don’t even DO anything?!” 

point is, he’s at the top of his game

and this year, senior year, the stakes for the championship are higher than ever; with hyuck’s school topping the rankings for the east, they’ll likely be meeting with the champion team in the west for the finals, and coach claims he hasn’t seen a matchup this neck-and-neck in terms of stats, style of play, and pairing matchups in .,,,, years

so there’s absolutely no screwing around this year - losing is not an option

but overall, haechan believes he has his shit planned out: there were assignments, then exams, then playoffs, then the championships, followed by celebrations here and there, and then hopefully a scholarship, followed by graduation and then college, and then it’ll just be the flower road from there

what he really doesn’t factor in, though, is a certain captain of a certain school marching band, swooping in to save his ass for the first time of many,,,,many more to come 

it happens on a regular tuesday afternoon 

you two shared the same stupid humanities elective class during last period, and it didn’t dawn upon him that a rough copy of this useless visual presentation was due today that he did nOT even know was even assigned 

the teacher comes around with her pointy ass glasses and a clipboard decorated in purple flower stickers, visibly softening at an obviously panicked hyuck 

“hello, donghyuck, ready to show me the rough copy?” 

“well,,,,see i-i um ,,, i”

THE ENTIRE CLASS IS SILENT AT THIS POINT BC

????? LEE DONGHYUCK FORGOT AN ASSIGNMENT? 

the teacher kind of urges him on, half in disbelief and half in pity at how scared he looks for the first time ever

he’s still trying to conjure up a plausible excuse, all the while LITERALLY WANTING TO HIT HIMSELF IN THE HEAD

ugh ur so stUPID, hyuck, he thinks, coach even ended practice early last night too and all u did was binge the last airbender for the 80th time AGAIn like a DUMBASS ugh 

so there’s a couple more awkward moments of silence 

until

“oh, ms kwon! i should have said something, haha we partnered up for this one! i have it on my laptop here!!”

his flushed face whips around and lands on you 

in your oversized knit sweater and cute skinny blue jeans ripped at the knee, round glasses threatening to fall from your nose 

and a surge washes over him he’s neve r ev  er felt before 

relief ?? ya, sure. we’ll call it that for now 

the teacher looks at you, then back at hyuck with an eyebrow cocked and you steal that moment to send him a nod and stern look in your eyes

he’s spluttering at this point 

“ye-yeah, sorry miss, just a little tired and f-frazzled i guess...”

the teacher kind of just gives herself a knowing smile, as sort of a “heh....alrighty then” but walks over to your desk nonetheless 

the entire class seems to buy it too, and go back to their white noise chatter 

hyuck lets out the loudest exhale before scrambling to his feet over to you just glaring at him with a knowing smile and your arms crossed across your chest

“i’m so soRRY I DON’T EVEN KNOW YOUR NAME WHY DID YOU JUST DO THAT FOR ME YOU REALLY DIDN’T HAVE TO i’m s o sorry i had practice late last night and holy crap it just totally slipped by me and-”

he stops at the sight of you bursting into a fit of giggles and is even more ??? confused ?? hes so frazzled

you: “it’s ok, you idiot, i know you always get stuff in on time anyway” 

and he shuts right back up and turns BRIGHT RED bc who even is this person? who’s so cute n helpful 

you: “i’m y/n btw!! i’m captain of the marching band for ur team” 

and the lightbulb visibly clicks for hyuck 

“OOOOH so that’s why you look so familiar!!” 

so the two of you chat away about playoffs coming up and the championships the last few years and how it’s so strange neither of you have crossed paths in the pass when you’ve had so many connections

and you kind of just smile and nod at that 

because you fully know why 

lee donghyuck, captain and quarterback of the football team

lee donghyuck, school heartthrob and teachers’ favourite

lee donghyuck, the social butterfly and the amicable figure in every situation 

he had always been there, practicing on the field in front of you as you tried to pry your eyes off of him and run the trumpet section one more time,,.,,,,he was always there, but always so??? unreachable???

you couldn’t pretend you never laid eyes on him on freshman orientation day when he was being stopped by every person he walked by to be high fived and welcomed to the team

and thought wow . his skin? his aura? the way his smile lights up the whole goddamn room? 

and you’re in a lot of classes with jaemin and always see hyuck drop by a few minutes before class to sit and goof around before getting lovingly chastised by the teacher 

but never reached out to say hi or anything 

he was always too unreachable 

BUT OF COURSE you don’t say anything and instead just smile at the ground and shrug 

“guess that’s just the way we’re supposed to be, you know?” 

and just as he was about to ask what you meant by that, the bell rings and you let out a breath you didn’t even realize you were holding 

like w Ow a whole 1 hour class w ur crush and he’s finally talking to you ???? TOO MUCH FOR ONE DAY 

you don’t even utter a goodbye  but just give him a bright, knowing smile, stuff your papers into your bag and leave for the day 

and even as the classmates pack up and the teacher is gone and hyuck knows he doesn’t have practice today but needs to get home bc he promised his mom he would help with her flat tire, he can’t find it in himself to stand up and leave 

he’s sitting there processing your words, and just,,,,you

“i’ve really been around y/n this whole time and didn’t even know it?” 

suddenly he just feels stricken with guilt and shame and remembers all the time the ball landed by the bleachers and you exCitedly running down the steps to toss it back clumsily 

he remembers always smiling back and saying “thanks”, but never quite meeting the eyes of the person 

he lets out a grumble and just plunks his head onto the wooden desk loudly 

chenle and jisung come bc they were all supposed to walk home together 

and just see a slumped hyuck bumping his head up and down on the table whispering “stupid, ,,,,, so stupid” over and over again

jisung: he did it oh my god it’s done it broke him football finally broke him HIGH SCHOOL FUCKING BROKE HIM 

so after fixing the tire and helping clean after dinner and finally lying in bed that night

he makes this silent promis e ??? to make it up to u somehow ?? 

you both wake up the next day, both w each other lingering in your minds, and both unsure of what to do to get rid of it 

though hyuck isn’t sure he wants to 

you both daze off during classes and stare at the back of the head of the person in front of you,,,,just,,, thinking 

and then it’s time for fifth period 

and you don’t think you’ve ever speedwalked so fast to a class before 

people start pouring in and as the second bells starts to ring you still don’t see his face and you decide getting your hopes up all day for no reason was just stupid 

the teacher is about to start the class before the door opens one last time and you see a visibly flustered hyuck shuffle in 

right into the seat next to you 

what you don’t know is two minutes prior to this, poor dude was in the bathroom rinsing his face and trying to do something, anytHING to get the blush off his cheeks but to no avail 

so the lesson today was about families and societies and you swear the next ten minutes felt like forty 

your eyelids start getting a little heavier before you hear the scratching of a pencil on paper 

he’s marked the side of your notebook with a little “hello ^-^” 

you try to conceal the beaming smile threatening to creep on ur face but you really can’t

you’re just a little whipped aren’t u

that entire class is then just spent doodling stupid things on each other’s notebooks and giggling and even had to have the teacher turn to you guys and give a stern look before realizing it was hyuck and just BEAMED 

by the time the class ended you were packing your stuff up to leave before he gRabs your hand 

“what the--?” 

he takes your thumb and places it on the fingerprint scanner before fiddling with something on it 

your mind immediately sprinted to the WORST IDEAS

“he’s hacking my instagram right now isn’t he he’s telling my family on facebook that i do drugs, isn’t he LEE DONGHYUCK GIVE ME MY PHONE”

so you start to fumble for it before he hands it back to you calmly,

“i’ll be expecting a text tonight”

and then he’s gone 

SMOOTH ISN’T HE 

and that was the start of the cutest friendship ever ???? 

you guys talk about anything and everything, from the colour of your room to his sister’s favourite food to the one time you fell from your treehouse and had to get stitches to the time lucas got stuck in a slide on a children’s playground when they all decided to sneak out at like 11pm at night and had to call the fire department to come get him out 

and texts eventually turn into calls and calls eventually turn into being inseparable at school

the boys LOVE YOU and immediately pinned you on their side to torture hyuck together

and as time goes by, all the boys start noticing changes in hyuck and how he would never do anything with them without mentioning your name

like they’d be out having ice cream after studying at jisung’s and he’d absentmindedly mention that this lemon ice cream is the perfect colour of your room and that yellow is your favourite colour 

or that the disco ball in jaemin’s basement is exactly the one you have dangling on the rearview mirror in your car 

so WINK WINK NUDGE NUDGE but the boys respect you enough to not tell you yet bc you deserve to have hyuck confess on his own

you guys hang out any chance you get and it isn’t till near spring formal that he comes over with some mcdonalds that you realize you’ve gotten so comfortable so fast 

so you both settle into the kitchen before he opens up the big mac, takes off one of the buns of the burger, to reveal ketchup dotted across the patty spelling “SF? :D” bc the patty was too small to spell the full words, “spring formal?” lol 

and you scoff and throw a fry at him bc of course you’d go with him 

and your heart’s just racing for the rest of the night

after dinner you head out to your backyard and lay a blanket on the grass to stare up at the stars 

hyuck knows a lot about astrology so you love just lying there and hearing him tell you about the lyra constellation and its myths 

you spend the night just giggling and laughing and shoving each other around before it starts to get really late and he knows he should be going 

but he can’t seem to move

and so he asks,

“hey, are you mad at me?”

and you’re a little,,,confused before you reply, “for spilling jisung’s apple juice on my laptop the other day? just a little, but i’ll forgive you if you pay for my spring formal ticket for me hehe”

he rolls his eyes and scoffs and says, “no you idiot”

you can’t think of why you’d be upset with him, considering it was just a regular night for you two

he explains, “you know.....for not really knowing you before this year”

your heart kind of sank bc you weren’t really expecting it but you also deep deep deep down seriously wished he would never bring this up 

it’s silence until you answer

“no, because i don’t blame you for it” 

“what do you mean”

“well...” you know it’s a tough thing to tell him but you know he’ll listen to your words

“you’ve just always been unreachable, you know? like i remember seeing you on freshmen orientation day and just thinking, you know, this guy is just something else,,,something i’ll never be. and over the years, i made my peace with that, bc that’s just the situation you were thrust in,,, you know, football and parties and stuff”

and hyuck’s heart sinks with each word because you really mentioned everything he was afraid of,,,,that he was only ever gonna be popular because of football,,,,and that he never really had a say before he was thrust into the social status he’s in now 

just as he’s about to clear his throat from emotions and get up to spout some stupid excuse on why his mom wants him home now even though she was probably already in bed, you continue

“but....now i know that’s not all that you are...you’re kind and smart and sweet and funny, and yeah you’re crazy good at football but you’re also crazy good at singing and science and fixing tires and vacuuming and playing with your little sister and making people laugh,,,that’s why you’re my friend now”

hyuck doesn’t realize how long he stares at you after you said that before you wave your hand in front of his face ((”uh dude.....”))

he feels tears welling up in his throat so he just lies back down and makes some nonchalant comment again, playing it all off like he usually does

“mhm okay yea enough with the sappiness i just wanted to know if the geeky band girl hates the quarterback captain like they typically do okay blah blah”

but you and him both know

you’re both concealing smiles as you lay there, staring at the stars 

he’s never heard anyone talk about him like that before 

and you’ve always known that he was still a little unsure of himself 

and maybe this just put this all to rest 

and as you both lay there with the sound of your own frantic heartbeats in your ears, you dwell on the fact that maybe it shouldn’t be beating that hard,,,,that fast,,,,

ANYWAY

senior year is going by, and before you guys know it, championships are in three days  

your school wins the semi-finals in dramatic fashion, with the winning touchdown seconds before the final whistle 

and you couldn’t make it to that game bc of a huge assignment due the next day but hyuck makes sure to call you as soon as he grabbed his stuff from the locker room 

“hEY WHERE ARE YOU GOING WE’RE GOING TO MINGYU’S HOUSE FOR DRINKS TO CELEBRATE”

“SORRY DUDES SOMETHING IMPORTANT CAME UP!!! HAVE FUN WITHOUT ME!!”

it was only a beat of silence before jungwoo just scoffed and shrugged, “someone’s WHIPPPEEEDDD” 

hyuck just blushes red and runs out in the midst of the entire locker room hollering and throwing sweaty towels at him 

bc he knows he doesn’t really have feelings for you, does he? 

these past few months have been amazing but it can’t be 

all he does know is 

how your hair smells like vanilla when you whip your head around to scold him for pinching your sides 

how your eyes crinkle when you laugh at some pun you read on reddit 

how your fingers get really bad circulation so they’re always cold and red and you have to make sure to wear sweaters during the winter to keep them warm

how you hate helping out the flutes cause they’re always screechy 

how you started playing the saxophone because your grandma did when she was in college 

how your eyes light up when someone mentions your favourite tv show character 

how you hate carrots but he always makes you eat them cause they’re good for you and you just sit there all pouty

how much he loves loves LOVES when you come over to just do nothing like sit on his windowsill and read or go through his old childhood pictures for the millionth time and giggle at every cute smiley one for the millionth time

he’s standing there in the middle of the field with his phone in his hand, dangling by his side, with you hollering through the receiver like “,,,,hello? bitch u called ME, HELLO?!!” 

and he just mumbles a “uh i gotta go sorry i’ll tell you about it tomorrow” 

and hangs up

cause fuck 

he’s in love isn’t he 

and he’s lying in bed again that night, knowing that he wants to tell you but he’s also so afraid, cause you’re his best best best (sorry mark) friend

and he’s never gotten so close to anyone so fast 

and he loves going to practice early with you so you guys can grab breakfast before 

and how he always makes sure to “accidentally” miss a toss and have it land on your head while you’re running a piece

so he tosses and turns all night 

before he comes to a decision

he knows the marching band always has practice on the bleachers every wednesday morning, coinciding with the team’s morning practice as well  

he rips his sheets off his tired body but surges up and runs to his computer, types in a few things onto the search engine and presses “print” 

it’s the next morning, and as you groggily heave yourself up from your bed, dreading having to deal with the flutes and their screeching sharps today, you also think abt hyuck and you wonder why he was acting so weird last night

but you brush it off as fatigue from a long and gruelling game 

it’s a beautiful day outside already at 7:00 in the morning, with just the slightest bit of chilliness and dew on the morning grass, and hyuck thinks it’s no accident that the sun decided to come out today too 

he holds the crinkly sheets of music in his hands, slightly shaking and profusely sweating, somehow nervous bc of someone he admires for the first time ??? in his life ???? 

he practically sprints to school, wanting to be there before you do

he spots the majority of the marching band already there and he sighs in relief when he doesn’t spot you

“hEy guys!” he runs up to the bleachers 

and he stops for a second before he realizes like ..... all these people look like deers in headlights bc ,, ,,,,,, the quarterback,,,,isn’t here with you?? aren’t you guys always stuck beside each other ????

“i’m s o sorry i don’t have a lot of time to explain and i know its confusing and this is gonna be such a rush but here !!!!” 

he hands out the sheet music to everyone there and makes them promise to not let you know about it 

everyone exchanges confusing looks ((one dude’s just like ‘fuck man it’s too early in the morning for secrets’)) but end up agreeing anyway and haechan doesn’t even have time to celebrate before he hears his teammates starting to make their way out of the practice room

he runs over to seungkwan, your best friend in band and someone who haechan knows won’t hold his word unless a bribe is involved

“okay look i know you’re y/n’s best friend but you have to promise me you won’t let her know about this okay?”

seungkwan props his clarinet on his shoulders, almost as if he was holding a baseball bat instead and does his best to puff his shoulders like “HMPH well what do i get out of this??”

“if you can establish a secret rehearsal time for tomorrow with the rest of the band where i can come and rehearse with you, i’ll set you up with our running back” bc god fucking knows vernon and seungkwan have been crushing on each other for years but have never had the guts to go NEAR each other and haechan is just sick of vernon’s endless daydreaming in the locker room 

seungkwan goes BRIGHT RED before clearing his throat and muttering “ugh fiNe” under his breath even tho he’s finally !!!!!! gonna talk to hansol !! agghhhhh!!!! 

haechan practically blows him a million kisses and runs off to the locker room before seungkwan asks

“HEY ummmm but uh why are you doing this?”

haechan sighs and feels he can’t even begin to explain himself without becoming a blubbering mess

so he just reassures him with a, “you’ll see”

hyuck doesn’t come to class that day even though you swore you saw him at practice 

he had cancelled breakfast w you earlier that morning and only waved to you once during practice, but again, you credit that to the finals being in 48 hours 

you shoot him a “cute bum where u from” text in hopes of getting his attention

“okay but no seriously WHERE ARE U I HATE MS KWON SO MUCH”

and no answer again 

you huff and give up and know he’ll message when he has to 

what you don’t know is he made sure to steer clear of you from now until the championships bc 1. he’s still not sure what he can do around you anymore now that he Knows how he Feels 

and 2. bc his hands are just glued to the sheet music, trying to rehearse as much as he can for this little surprise he has planned for you 

so all he does is just send you back a simple “not feeling well, just gonna rest up until the game” 

and your heart sinks bc you guys haven’t gone 48 hours without talking since like 8 months ago 

regardless, with championships coming up and endless school assignments piling up, you’re pretty well distracted 

but you do also silently curse yourself for imagining every quote in romeo and juliet to be hyuck and you 

and how every hour of those 48 hours seemed so excruciating and long and empty bc both of you were so busy 

so by the time it’s game day, you are restless and in so much yearning for a presence you never knew you needed this bad 

but you know, as soon as the game’s over, you can hopefully run into his arms and congratulate him 

ahem platonically ofc ahem, you try to convince yourself 

you get to the field and it’s already bustling with mascots and spectators and streamers and you can barely hear the sound of the band warming up above all the noise 

intros begin and you guys start playing the opening pieces as the banner rips and out runs 

hyuck

and it’s like suddenly the earth just . stops 

looking at him running out, eyes blazed and all determined and strong made you feel so much all at once, you could feel your knees starting to buckle

and it didn’t really help when, mid run, he turns his head to you and gives a subtle smile and wink before heading to the center of the field 

you bite back a beaming smile of your own

for the next two hours, that’ll have to be enough 

and there wasn’t a single doubt in your body that they were gonna lose 

the game starts and the volume doesn’t dim for even a second 

you feel yourself sweating profusely through your blue and white uniform with each toss and whistle and tackle and you swear you’ve never been so nervous in your life 

it’s the final quarter and your school is down by just a touchdown and you swear you won’t be able to handle this anymore it’s toO MUCH

you glance up at the stands to see yukhei holding chenle’s head and screaming and jaemin with his head in his hands and jeno just closing his eyes ((”i can’t watch i can’t watch i can’t watch”)) and mark and jisung grabbing onto each other muttering things that look like praying ??? 

you even spot former alumni, youngho, taeyong and jaehyun, biting their nails and clasping their hands 

there’s barely a minute left and the ball is in our possession 

you hear hyuck echo a “HUT!! HUT HUT” before he tosses the ball in the air

it’s like time slows down as you see the running back catch it and dash for the end 

THE ENTIRE FIELD IS ON THEIR TOES as you watch your team’s defence tackle and hammer people out of vernon’s way 

he’s going and going and just before the horn blows for the end of the game, he crosses the line and 

EVERYONE GOES INSANE

the horn blows for the final second and once again, you guys have done it 

everyone from the stands pours down onto the field and before you can process it, mark and the boys are running up to you and dog-piling you, dragging you into the crowd with them

they did it!!! hyuck did it!!!! 

there are streamers and confetti everywhere but your eyes are just straining and stretching, looking for him 

it’s just loud, white noise for a second before you hear something behind you 

your band is in position and you see seungkwan counting them in for the opening beats

your heart starts to panic to remember if you forgot you had another piece to perform?????

the opening chords to a familiar classic starts playing and before you can even react 

there’s a voice in a mic 

and the sound of someone singing 

and it’s hyuck 

the band plays along with him and you’re just,,,,,perplexed and confused as to what he’s doing 

until you realize he’s looking straight at you

the swing beat starts to get everyone in the crowd singing and dancing 

but you’re frozen in your spot 

did he plan this?? what is he doing and how did you not know about it???? you feel hands behind you and eyes start to land on you as the boys push you forward and hyuck starts making his way onto the field to where you’re standing 

the crowd gets even louder and the music gets even happier as he’s dancing and grooving his way to you 

and then there he is, right in front of you 

his voice has you hypnotized and you’re absolutely sure this is a dream 

you guys move together to the beat, never taking eyes off one another and you just have an amazed expression on your face the entire time 

the songs comes to a beautiful climactic end and you still have no idea what’s going on

the lyrics still echo in your head

“hey, hey, baby....i want to know if you'll be mine...when i saw you walking down the street, i said that’s someone i’d like to meet,,,”

and the entire school is watching ((INCLUDING HYUCK’S PARENTS AND YOUR TEACHERS))) and your head is just spinning, spinning, spinning

he lowers the mic and just leans close and rests his forehead on yours and whispers his words to you

“i love you, and i’m so sorry it took so long but i really really do, i just hope i can make up for all the time lost,” 

his eyes are pouring emotions into yours and for some reason you want to cry 

his team just won a championship!!!! scouts are probably here, scribbling his name down for a scholarship right now!! and everyone on this field was just yelling and whooping his name a second ago!!! 

yet he’s standing here, so vulnerable and nervous in front of you 

so you grab his face and swallow your nerves

and tell him you love him, you’ve loved him for so long 

all you hear is just muted yelling and cheering and whooping around you before you swear you see a glisten in his eyes as he leans and swoops you in for a kiss 

the band is going off and playing some other 80s love tune and there is still confetti just flying all over the place and people running up to you and hugging you guys 

but his hand is still entangled in yours and he just winks 

bc in the midst of all the chaos and all the noise of being such a superstar, there you are 

and he’s sure that’s all he’ll need

tag yourself

60’s - kisses on the hand, soft acoustics, keeping a journal under the pillow, walks in the rain, old films, a bouquet of roses at the doorstep, secret love letters, old newspaper articles, talking to the moon

70’s - gentle hum of the radio, rose gardens, soft filters, yellow tinted sunglasses, fuzzy sunlight on a meadow, perfumes on silk, pearl earrings, ladybird on an eyelid, french literature

80’s - potted plants on the balcony, stargazing with your best friend, dusty video games, old coffee shops, bike rides to the lake, revisiting childhood nostalgia, flower-embroidered sleeves

90’s - eye circles, midnight drives to nowhere, falling in love recklessly, denim jackets, ripped pages in a diary, thinking about past lovers, listening to music until 3am, the dark phase of sunsets, mixtapes

00’s - believing in magic, smiling at strangers, dreams of being someone, hearing an old song you used to like on the radio, birthday cards from friends who don’t talk to you anymore

10’s - goodnight texts, fairy lights on the wall,flowers on eyelids, the view of a city from an apartment, feeling lonely on the train, sending a million hearts, feeling yourself changing for the better

lee taeyong

definitely that kid that pops a cap over his mop of red hair and a mask over his face and a hoodie over his head and sneaks out right at midnight

walks into a dark and wet alley three blocks south of his place, very lowkey worried sick that his boys are gonna ring him up and ask him what the heck he was doing looking like he was gonna rob a place 

keeps walking until he sees the door located at the furthest wall in the alley

right now y’all are probably like ,,,, wut 

BUT the door opens and immediately the booming hip hop music slams his eardrums and he basks in the noise and the smell of sweat and feet and drinks and people

he sees the familiar circle in the middle of the dance floor, takes off his mask and feels so at home 

BASICALLY taeyong is the king of underground dancing 

he’s been frequenting this place for years and helped build it up to what its become 

the rat infested cold cell now became one of the biggest hot spots for all b-boys, contemporary dancers, hiphop dancers, ballerinas, and tap dancers alike 

walks up to the familiar circle and the noise just goes instantly from a 10 to a 14 

“AYEEE LOOK WHO’S HERE” “THE MAN IS IN THE HOOUUSSEEEEEEE” “MR KING OF THE FLOOR”

he bashfully just shakes his head and scopes out the talent here today

this isn’t a place of competition or anything

just an outlet and a place for all dancers to showcase their talent and get hyped up by people who love what they love 

now you were a friend of a friend of taeyong’s, one of the ones that helped him build up this place

and when this place really started hitting it up the past couple months, you had offered up your services in bartending !! 

you got your license a couple years ago and didn’t think having a part time job on days you didn’t have school wasn’t such a bad thing after all

ESPECIALLY SINCE dancing was kind of ..,, your little secret

i mean 

if dancing in front of your mirror to britney spears and beyonce when you were 14 count as having a talent but YKNOW 

but no really you’ve never taken a class, but have seen enough videos on the internet and snuck into enough competitions and workshops to fill the entire population of your country to CAPACITY 

the movements, the emotions, just the whole entire feeling of getting lost in your own body, letting it do its thing, telling a whole entire story with your biggest instrument, is so so beautiful 

but of course, dancing doesn’t pay bills and dancing doesn’t help with the drowning debt school is putting you through 

so just watching and admiring is enough for now, you keep telling yourself

it wasn’t until a week into your job that you met taeyong for the first time 

you had looked up from the mojito and strawberry daiquiri you were making to the noise level of the entire place go up a notch 

and in walked the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen? 

clad in grey sweatpants (your w e a k n e s s), just a black hoodie, and his hair swept back and played with by the late night wind, he walked right into the middle of the circle without hesitation and the beat just … carried him

you watched in amazing as he popped and locked and manoeuvred his body in ways you didn’t know a body could 

a beauty 

that was the only thought you could even conjure 

and from then on, just stealing glances here and there of the boy with the blinding smile and beautiful eyes and incredible talent was just enough to get you through a gruelling shift 

you would tell all of this to your friend; about your underlying wish to be on that dance floor one day and about your tiny little crush 

only for her ass to hop on over to taeyong and mENTION IT OUT OF NOWHERE ONE DAY?????

your friend knows how good you are, but you never listen to her about coming out of your shell 

so her coy little ass just thought hEy hm if i can’t convince her , her CRUSH CAN!!

you beat her up for a solid fifteen minutes when she told you she told taeyong 

but nonetheless, on that night, he didn’t confidently walk onto the dance floor like he usually did

he let the others take the floor 

and he stole a glance over to the person standing behind the bar, subconsciously moving their hips to the music while refilling the ice cooler, lost in their own little world 

he noticed your long eyelashes and they way your eyes closed in content when your shoulders popped perfectly on a beat drop 

the way your movements were so fluid he felt a mixture of jealousy but admiration in his tummy 

so without even knowing it his legs carried him over to the bar and he stole a seat right in front of you 

you were so lost in your own little world you didn’t even register anyone there until you heard a throat clear and you dROP ALL THE ICE ONTO THE FREAKING FLOOR LIKE A DUMBASS 

BC OH HI 

YOUR FOUR MONTH LONG CRUSH IS STANDING RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU WITH GLISTENING EYES AND YOU SUDDENLY FORGET WHAT HANDS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE USED FOR 

“u uuh .. ,,, would you like something to drink … ??” 

he kind of just scoffs and looks down 

“i’m taeyong,,,,our mutual friend told me how you’d much rather be out there than behind this marble counter,,,” and you freak out a bit like 

“nO NO IT’S OKAY I LOVE IT HERE !!” 

he kind of looks at you for a little second longer before making his way behind the counter and grAsping your hand in a single motion 

“come” he simply ordered 

“w - w hat??! WHAT ARE U DOING”

you’re freaking out because um he’s touching you but also UM his fingers are intertwined with yours???

before you know it he’s thrusted you onto the dance floor and now everyone is screaming and urging you on 

you stand there almost completely frozen and confused and unsure of what to do because you’re a little hazy as to how you’ve even gotten here in the first place??

and NO WTF you refuse to dance in front of these people, the most you’ve done is at a small tiny festival in your hometown, but your face was COMPLETELY covered and you had had months of preparation

but you turn your head and lock eyes with a particular handsome, redheaded, smiling boy 

his hands are urging you on and counting in the beats for you 

and that just does something to you ???

you have no idea what 

but that feeling of the look in someone’s eyes who believe in you and want to see all the talent that you possess 

that feeling is just unparalleled 

so you kind of just suck in a breath and block everything out 

and it’s just you and the music 

and your body takes you on a journey and you roll with it 

you move and you pop and you swing and you jump and you stretch and you spin 

every move matches every beat perfectly and you haven’t felt this energized in what feels like years 

before you know it the song ends and the entire crowd is losing their minds

but somehow the only person you see is taeyong 

and hes just standing with his hand in his pocket 

and he’s not even surprised 

he has a knowing smile on his face and a look of admiration in his eyes

he walks into the middle of the circle where you’re now standing sweating and disheveled but happier than you’ve ever been

it was probably an accumulated two minutes in total, but that felt like it made up a whole lifetime of suppressing what really makes you happy 

he kind of just looks down shyly at you 

“hey… i never really caught your name,,,”

you tell it to him, your voice cracking a little 

and he’s repeating it over and over under his breath, his eyes just looking down at you so lovingly and admiringly ?????? you kind of want to dig yourself a grave an d die bc he ‘s os wowow ? ???? 

“y/n…,, i’ll remember that…”

kim dongyoung/doyoung

when i think of doyoung the only au that ever makes perfect sense is him being a president or head or captain or co-chairman or whatever of a school club 

SO he’s head of music council and the tenor section leader in choir 

and you, my friend, are the head of the dance council and the lead choreographer for the contemporary squad at school

and you guys aren’t really close and you just know him as the really smart dude that’s in charge of everything and can also apparently sing really well??

AND ALSO VERY ,, VERY CUTE

BUT BUT BUT over the years, your school has always had a reputation for the music and dance faculties to go at it, like go AT IT 

these two faculties hATE EACH OTHER

the senior year before you had resulted in a dancer pulling the hair of a singer wHile she was on stage DURING A COLLAB PERFORMANCE OF THE TWO FACULTIES set up by the teachers in an attempt to soothe the rivalry 

and the year before that, some vocalist had stuffed all the dancers’ things down the locker room toilets during practice 

IT’S BLOODY OUT IN THESE STREETS OK

so needless to say, you guys become natural ENEMIES

( side note i love how every doyoung au has to do with being enemies with him at one point cause he’s literally satan reincarnate but it all works out in the end and he’s actually a soft bear ok so it’s cute ) 

side glances in the hall 

purposely knocking each others’ shoulder on your way to practice

and the funniest part is ,,, you don’t even know him at all

you’ve heard him sing once and he hasn’t even seen you dance because he’s always been busy with festivals and such throughout your competition season

so this hatred is kind of just,,,,ignited from the very fact that you’re supposed to be rivals 

and from the things that you hear you kind of don’t think he’s all that bad

like he always has to have everything perfect to a tee and some people find that very overbearing 

but you ??? you really really admire it and think he’s such a hardworking and intelligent guy 

but also 

you can tell that he’s always extremely stressed over everything 

once tried spying on him with your other dancers to see when his class ended to know how long it would take for him to find out you guys doused the entire instrument room in shaving cream 

you saw him hold his mug of tea in one hand, his music folder in the same hand, and his bio research paper in the other hand, trying to walk over a bunch of cords and instruments the band left askew on the floor 

tripped over a trumpet a spilled his tea all over him and his music and his research paper and you swore you saw smoke coming out of his ears 

AND you aren’t really friends so what position are you in to tell him to rest or make sure he’s not completely wrecking himself ??

esp cause the entire student body would also question everything they believe in because wow what? dancers and singers aren’t supposed to get along pfft 

regardless you kind of keep your mouth shut and suppress this lil admiration of yours

your winter showcase is coming up and your teacher actually let you have a solo this year and helped you choreograph it!! 

w your department hyping you up and news being leaked that the entire vocalist department had bought tickets to your show made you all the more pressured to do well

and doyoung will be seeing you dance for the first time but  ahahhaha not like tha ‘t s im portant . , ,,,, 

the night before your big performance you feel suffocated by the foggy mirrors and heavy air of the practice room and sneak out in a huge jacket and toque to the nearby park and river to take a walk before you feel your head blow off 

the stress of the performance keeps coming back to you and you know that scholarships are coming and scouts are going to be there and everything could come crashing down if you aren’t able to do well

so you leave the practice room without a second thought in hopes of clearing your mind

the cold air accentuated by the chilliness of the river hits you in the face and it wasn’t until twenty minutes into your walk when you see a figure walking towards your direction as well

you go to turn around, unwilling to deal w anyone right now until the figure looks up at you and your heart right about stops 

doyoung looks back at you with equally confused eyes 

“what are you doing here too?” he asks, all the apparent disgust and coldness towards you from before now seemingly faded 

you explain you just needed some fresh air, not before fumbling to add, “not that you would care for anything about it anyway”

you didn’t know what reaction to expect, but him scoffing and rolling his eyes before looking at you ,,,,,, lovingly? ???? was not one of them

you expected him to say something snarky back

but he surprises you again with a “you know we can drop the act, right?” 

it didn’t take you long to process what he meant ; you guys are alone in the middle of the night, outside, without another soul within distance–what was the use in pretending to hate each other now when you really know nothing about each other at all? 

you kind of just meekly nod and look down at your feet,,, “ya i was getting pretty tired of that too”

he just smiles and you guys stand face to face in silence for a couple more moments before he leads you to a bench nearby and you sit shoulder to shoulder, just breathing in the cold air 

two really important people in the two biggest fine arts departments in any school in the district, both stressed and tired beyond belief 

he tells you that he’s scrambling to keep his high average to get into the bio-med program his parents want him to get into but also about the underlying dream he has of wanting to become just a music teacher 

like no flashy degrees on his resume, no decades of schooling to be stuck in a white coat all day and never catching a wink of sleep

he just wants to be around music and children and it’s been difficult to deal with the pressures of others fighting with his own dreams 

and you’re confused ??? Bc you’ve never had such a deep conversation with anyone like this before and you find him so easy to confide in 

you just chalk it up to him telling all this to you bc you guys are virtually strangers and he probably only needs an outlet to talk to 

until 

“hey,,, you know what i’ve noticed?” he asks 

you just shake your head and wait for him to continue 

“for the amount of hatred we’re supposed to have for each other for being from opposing departments, i’ve never even seen you dance” 

you just scoff and brush it off blah blah you’ll get to see it tomorrow bc you’re coming, aren’t you 

“well yeah, but…” he replies, but trails off and just kind of looks at you for a few seconds, not saying anything 

you stare back ,kind of getting lost in his eyes but OF C  you convince yourself you’re just sleep deprived 

but you see his tired eyes suddenly light up and his rumoured resemblance to a bunny is Confirmed by you 

“hEy how about you dance right now?” 

your immediate reaction is to smack him in the head

“h eY HEY STOP THAT HURTS. NO I’M SERIOUS!! tomorrow you’re gonna be all clad in a beautiful white outfit and get good lighting and have scouts put your name down all over their clipboards and everything but,,,,how about you just dance right now like this? and get rid of all your stress just like this?” 

you ogle at him bc wow ? he can’t be serious? 

“come oN i’ll be respectful i promise and ahEm i ,,, um…. ihaventeverseenyoudanceandireallywanttoseeyoudanceandihearyouarereallygoodbutinevergottoseeyouandikindofjustwanttoseeyoudance HA so ya um . ya”

you burst out laughing at this righteous, always put together and confident boy fumbling and turning into a stuttering mess in front of you 

and it’s not like you’re shy or anything - being on stage all your life has taught you the biggest audience you have is always going to be yourself 

but you find it so endearing that he genuinely wants you to do what you love and do this performance that you’ve worked so hard on, on a stage where no one is judging you and no one is assessing you 

he just wants to see you dance 

so you shrug and unzip your jacket, now clad in only your leggings and tshirt ((But somehow his gaze kind of keeps you warm))

you pull out the accompaniment on your phone and with the starting chord, your body just knows the way 

you use the river as your backdrop and the streetlights reflecting off of it as your strobe lights and the grass as your stage 

your toes curl and point and your body twists and turns and you feel the lyrics deep within you as you move 

the song rings into the silence of the night, along with it just your breathing and his 

and as the song ends, you look back at him 

sitting on the bench still as a rock, unbreathing and just utterly astounded 

you walk back towards him with hesitant steps, only for him to meet you there first and throw himself on you in a hug 

you’re unsure of why and you kNOw if anyone fro m school sees you this is going on the front page of the school news 

but you just wrap your arms back around his torso and breathe him in 

“thank you,,,,for showing me something you love so much” 

this is only gonna be 1/3 bc if i do all the members on this one psot ,,,, i’m afraid tumblr is going to email me about the length of content i intend to post. jeffrey, sicheng and jungwoo coming up soon!! enjoy this thing i threw together in like ten minutes lol i’M GETTING BACK IN MY GROOVE OK
