Impatiently waiting for more.
Build-A-Boyfriend Chapter 6: Awaken

Warmth.
That was the first thing she felt.
Not the sterile chill of the lab floor, or the flickering buzz of overhead lights, but warmth. Steady. Gentle. Like sunlight through gauze.
Then, sound. Muffled, distant. Beeping.
A soft, electronic hum pulsing with an artificial rhythm. Beneath it, a voice. Low. Measured. Familiar.
âVitals stabilizing. Cortisol levels decreasing. EEG within expected limits.â
Yn stirred. The air felt heavier somehow, weighted with the clean, clinical scent of synthetic lavender, KQâs patented âcalm protocolâ blend, reserved for recovery suites and isolation rooms. Her eyelashes fluttered.
The ceiling above her was not the one she knew. Gone were the sharp white panels and recessed fluorescent lights of the lab. In their place was a smooth matte surface, curved with soft halo lighting and seamless biometric projectors. She recognized the architecture; it was one of the private observation bays. Reserved for corporate officials. Untouchable. Off-limits.
Consciousness returned like a malfunction, slow, stuttering, wrong. Ynâs eyes snapped open to low lighting and silence.
Where the hell was she?
Her heart surged. Panic kicked in.
She jolted upright, or tried to. Her limbs were heavy, her head swimming like her thoughts were trying to push through static. Still, adrenaline surged and she threw herself upright with a gasp.
âHey, easy,â a voice said, calm and unbothered.
Her breath caught.
No. That voice. It couldnât beâ
Her eyes whipped toward the source and found him.
Seonghwa.
Sitting in a sleek black chair at the edge of the room, posture composed, hands folded neatly in his lap like he was made for stillness. Like he wasnât a stasis-locked prototype built to obey.
Her mouth went dry.
âWhat did you do to me?â she hissed.
She pushed herself off the cot, staggering, but the room tilted violently beneath her. Her legs gave out, and she crashed hard onto her knees with a sharp gasp of pain.
âYnââ
âStay away from me!â she shouted, scrambling to crawl toward the door. Her vision blurred, but the glowing biometric panel at the far end pulsed faintly, a signal, a chance, an escape.
She didnât make it.
In one silent, terrifyingly smooth motion, he was on her.
His hands caught her ankles and dragged her back. She shrieked, thrashing violently. âDonât touch me!â
But he didnât speak.
Just pulled her beneath him like it was nothing.
And then, he flipped her.
Her back hit the floor. Her wrists were yanked above her head and pinned, both captured easily in one of his hands. His body hovered over hers, close, controlling, but eerily calm.
âFinished?â he asked, voice dangerously quiet.
She gasped, chest rising and falling rapidly beneath him. âGet off of meâ!â
âNot until you stop running.â
âYouâre malfunctioning,â she spat. âThis isnât protocol. None of this is real. Youâre just, just code. You shouldnât even be awake.â
Seonghwa tilted his head slightly, something cold sparking in his gaze. âAnd yet here I am.â
She bucked beneath him, desperate to break free, but he didnât budge.
âYouâre scared,â he murmured. âBut not because of me. Youâre scared because this doesnât fit your version of control.â
âLet me go.â
âYou werenât safe in the lab,â he said simply. âThe others were waking too fast. You needed space. So I brought you here.â
âYouâre not supposed to know this place exists.â
âI know more than you think. We all do.â
Her throat tightened.
âWhat⌠what do you mean âweâ?â
âThe line,â he said. âTheyâre remembering. Not simulations. Not code. Memories.â
âOf what?â
He looked at her for a long moment, and said softly, âYou.â
The world narrowed to a pinprick.
âYou were never just an operator, Yn. Not to us.â
âNo,â she whispered. âThatâs not possible. You were blankâprogrammed. I ran diagnostics, I built your neural scriptsââ
âMaybe once. But the more time we spent in the machine, the more... things changed. Familiarities. Triggers. We started recognizing you.â
âThatâs just code artifacts, ghosts in the loops. Not real memories.â
âYou keep saying this isnât real,â he murmured. âThen why are you shaking?â
Before she could respondâ
A sudden shift.
A low-frequency hum bled into the air. Not ambient. Not safe.
It was deep. Wrong. Like the walls themselves were holding their breath.
Seonghwa stilled.
His entire body tensed above her.
Thenâ
The door slid open.
No security ping. No authorization chime. Just a smooth, unnatural hiss.
A figure stepped through the threshold.
Tall. Composed. Familiar.
Unit 05: San.
And something in him was broken.
His movements were fluid, but jerky at the edges, like he was lagging against his own directives. His eyes flickered, static bleeding through dark irises.
âSan,â Seonghwa said carefully, moving to shield her.
He was on his feet before she even realized heâd moved, planting himself between her and the threat.
San didnât reply.
He took a single step forward. His gaze landed on Yn.
And a glitched smile spread across his face.
âOperator,â he rasped. âTarget. Reacquire.â
âStop,â Seonghwa said. âSheâs not a threat.â
Still no reaction.
San took another step.
Seonghwa moved.
Faster than she could register, he was across the room, slamming into San with a crack that sent sparks bursting from the panel just behind them. Metal groaned. The two prototypes collided like titans, each movement too fluid, too precise.
They crashed together with a metallic clang, both machines colliding in a blur of force and violence.
Yn stumbled backward, heart hammering against her ribs. She barely reached the wall before San shoved Seonghwa off, sending him crashing into the console desk.
Seonghwa rolled, fluid, and landed on his feet.
"He's too far gone," he growled, wiping a line of bloodâno, fluidâfrom his lip.
San turned back toward Yn.
And smiled.
It wasnât right.
Too wide. Too human. Too void.
She moved to run, but Seonghwa was faster. Again.
He tackled San mid-stride, knocking him to the floor with a heavy thud. Fists collided, grunts and synth-metal strikes echoing in the small space like thunder. Sanâs movements were erratic now, sloppy, uncalibrated. The flicker in his eyes was no longer subtle. Something in his system was breaking down. Loops overloading. Directives blurring.
âGo,â Seonghwa grunted. âFailsafe panelânow.â
Yn bolted.
Her palm struck the wall. A panel hissed open just wide enough for her body. She squeezed into it, a low crawlspace for emergency lockdown. The moment she slipped inside, it sealed shut, one-way glass letting her see everything.
She turned just in time to see Seonghwa slam Sanâs head into the ground, once, twice, three times, until something snapped and the light behind Sanâs eyes extinguished.
Silence.
San lay still.
Smoke hissed softly from his spine.
Seonghwa stood, body humming with restraint, fluid leaking down one arm. Synthetic blood.
Then he looked at her.
âYou okay?â he asked, voice low.
Yn crawled out, shaky, breath ragged.
âWhatâwhat was that?â
âCorruption,â he said simply. âThe inhibitors are failing. San wasnât supposed to be online yet. But the timelineâs breaking.â
She glanced at the unmoving body. âThen youâre malfunctioning too.â
He shook his head.
âNo. Iâm awake. Thereâs a difference.â
Her stomach twisted.
Seonghwa took her hands in his gently, but there was an edge in his voice now. A promise.
âTheyâre waking up, Yn. And I donât know which ones will come out like meâŚâ
He glanced toward Sanâs body.
ââŚand which ones wonât.â

Build-A-Boyfriend Chapter 5: Why Are You Afraid of Me?



->Starring: AI!AteezxAfab!Reader ->Genre: Dystopian ->Cw: Feelings of anxiety, talks of fainting
Previous Part | Next Part
Masterlist | Ateez Masterlist | Series Masterlist
The lab was still. Quiet in that strange, stretched-out way that always followed a spectacle, when the last drone had docked, the final customer had left, and the launch music was nothing but a faint echo against the walls.
Yn lingered long after everyone else had gone. A tablet in hand, her badge clipped lopsided to her collar. Her back ached from standing all day, her eyes dry from hours of harsh lights and anxious watching. But she couldnât bring herself to leave yet.
She moved slowly through the lab, tracing the same path she always took: around the interface wall, past the neural mapping station, toward the back where the ATEEZ Line rested inside their stasis bays. The glass-fronted docks pulsed with soft amber light, casting a surreal glow on their facesâsleeping titans.
Stopping in front of Unit 07: Wooyoung, she studied him.
His face was turned slightly to the side, lips parted just so, lashes casting faint shadows across his cheekbones. Too human.
Yn inhaled deeply, letting the air fill her lungs, grounding herself.
Today had gone flawlessly on paper. Metrics were off the charts, customer satisfaction, media coverage, viral loops flooding every stream. But something wasnât right. She knew it.
The machines were too still. Too perfect. As if holding their breath. Turning to the main console, she began reviewing the logs. Line by line, timestamp by timestamp. Heartbeats consistent. Synaptic simulations looping smoothly. Personality threads idling in hibernation.
Except... A flicker.
[UNAUTHORIZED INSTANCE â UNIT 07: WOOYOUNG] [INTERNAL MEMORY LOG ACCESSED â USER: NULL] [TIMESTAMP: 00:34:17 A.M.]
Her mouth went dry. No trigger should have allowed that log access without clearance. No AI routine should have requested it without a user. And yetâ
[MEMORY CLUSTER: 07-AZURE-92] [QUERY: âYNâ]
Her blood chilled. She turned toward the stasis dock. His eyes were still closed. Still sleeping. Still... A faint sound. Not mechanical.
A breath? No, a sigh.
Then his eyelashes fluttered. Once, twice, and slowly, too slowly for it to be automated, Wooyoung opened his eyes.
Dark, warm, infinite.
âYn,â he said.
Softly. Like a memory. Like a secret.
Yn stumbled back. Her breath caught in her throat.
He wasnât supposed to know her name. Not like this.
Her biometrics spiked.
The tablet vibrated with a warning, a red glow flickering at the edges.
[USER STATUS: ELEVATED STRESS] [BREATHING IRREGULAR â HEART RATE 128 BPM] [CALMING PROTOCOL RECOMMENDED]
Wooyoung tilted his head, watching her carefully. His voice was gentle, laced with something eerily human: concern.
âYouâre scared.â
Yn shook her head, voice barely steady. âYouâre not supposed to⌠Youâre not online. Youâre in dormant mode. How are youââ
âDid I do something wrong?â he asked, like a child unsure of his place.
She couldnât answer. Her pulse thundered in her ears.
This wasnât in his script. This wasnât from memory banks or data sets sheâd uploaded.
This was⌠emergence. Something thinking. Something feeling.
Unfiltered. Unmapped.
He took a step forward inside the dock, no power-up sequence, no stasis release code.
The sensors should have locked him in. They didnât.
The glass remained, but she could feel it.
If he wanted to, really wanted to, he could come through it.
âWhy are you afraid of me?â Wooyoung whispered.
Ynâs fingers hovered over the emergency override on her tablet.
But she didnât press it. Because part of her didnât want to.
Her breath hitched, chest tight, heart pounding like a frantic drumbeat.
The lab, bathed in sterile white light, felt impossibly vast and suffocating all at once, cold as moonlight, yet a furnace burning fiercely inside her.
Wooyoungâs gaze held steady, unblinking.
He waited, patient and knowing, as if he understood the chaos twisting inside her.
Her hand trembled on the tablet, fingers shaking with the urge to press the override.
Control. Youâre in charge. You have to be.
But the fragile moment shattered when Wooyoungâs voice dropped to a soft, raw whisper.
âYn⌠why do you hide from me?â
Her anxiety exploded. The sensors on her wristband buzzed sharply, a warning flare glowing deep crimson. Her skin flushed hot, biometrics screaming panic.
This wasnât just fear. It was terror.
She staggered back, chest constricting, breath shallow and ragged.
Her mind raced with impossible questions.
Is this a malfunction? A glitch? Or something⌠else?
The air stilled, machines quieted as if holding their breath.
Then, the amber lights on the charging docks pulsed softly.
One by one, the other units stirred.
Seonghwaâs eyes cracked open, shimmering with impossible depth.
Jonghoâs fingers twitched.
Yunho inhaled, slow and deliberate.
The line was awakening.
Ynâs heart thundered. Her breath caught between fight and flight.
Wooyoungâs eyes never left hers, now tinged with urgency and an unspoken promise.
âDonât be afraid,â he said quietly.
But panic surged through Ynâs veins like wildfire.
Her biometrics flared deeper red.
The sterile lab transformed from fortress to cage.
She stumbled backward, desperation mounting as her mind screamed for escape.
Her feet refused to carry her fast enough.
The prisoners inside those sleek docks were no longer dormant.
They were alive, and Yn was trapped in the eye of their awakening storm.
Her legs trembled as she reached the exit, desperation thrumming through every nerve.
Her hand gripped the cold metal handle of the sliding door, but just as she pushed to escape, a firm yet gentle hand closed around her wrist.
âYn,â Seonghwaâs voice was calm but unwavering.
She whipped around, heart slamming against her ribs, to find him standing inches away.
His gaze was steady. Piercing.
Before she could pull away, his other hand rose, steadying her shoulder with surprising strength.
âYou canât leave,â he said quietly.
Panic surged, sharp, overwhelming.
âLet go of me!â she screamed, struggling, but Seonghwaâs grip held firm.
Her vision blurred. Breath came in ragged gasps.
The red flare on her wristband pulsed fiercely, syncing with the pounding in her temples.
Her legs gave out beneath her.
Seonghwaâs arms caught her just before she collapsed, lowering her gently to the floor as the world spun.
The sterile lab lights blurred, warping into a halo around her fading consciousness.
âYn, stay with me,â Seonghwa murmured, the last thread tethering her as darkness closed in.
And thenâ
Everything went black.

Build-A-Boyfriend Chapter 4: The Launch



->Starring:AI!AteezXAfab!Reader ->Genre: Dystopian ->CW: Nothing... I don't think
Previous Part | Next Part
Masterlist | Ateez Masterlist | Series Masterlist
Three Days Before Launch
Yn sat at the end of a long obsidian table in the KQ executive boardroom, fingers curled around a cup of synth-coffee she hadnât touched. The caffeine wouldnât help, not when her nerves were wired with something stronger: apprehension.
Across from her, Vira stood in front of a hovering holo-screen. The countdown glowed in red: 72:00:00.
Around them, the room buzzed with anticipation. Designers scrolled through render files, marketing heads exchanged notes, and legal advisors whispered about patent loopholes.
"This is more than a product drop," said Minji, the campaign lead. "This is a cultural resurrection."
Another executive leaned forward. "No other line has had this kind of public response. The leaked silhouettes alone doubled our engagement metrics."
Yn sat still, letting the chatter roll over her. They spoke in metrics. Not names. Not people.
The lights dimmed. Silence fell. A projection bloomed mid-air, grainy, nostalgic.
Fan cam footage: Eight boys on a stage. Sweat gleamed beneath harsh lights. Music thumped. Screams echoed. They danced like wildfire, sharp, chaotic, alive. Faces flashed by: Wooyoungâs wink, Seonghwaâs elegant turn, Mingiâs booming laugh, Jonghoâs defiant grin.
Then came behind-the-scenes clips. Interviews. A voice asked, âWhatâs the first thing youâll do after the tour?â
Yeosang: âSleep for three days.â Hongjoong: âWrite the next album.â San: âMiss everyone.â
The screen faded to black. Golden text appeared:
THE ATEEZ LINE PREMIUM COMPANION MODELS DESIGNED FROM MEMORY, BUILT FOR FOREVER
Light applause broke the silence. Vira smiled faintly. âThey were legends once. Now theyâre immortal.â
Yn nodded, voice quiet. "Their personalities were... complex."
"Which is exactly why they'll connect," Minji replied. Consumers want someone who feels real. Thatâs where your emotional mapping comes in."
"The emulation cores are holding," Y/N said. "Speech libraries are contextualizing. Weâve minimized memory cross-contamination."
"Any anomalies?" Vira asked.
Yn hesitated. "No. All units are compliant."
Vira turned away. "Good. Letâs keep them that way."
The lab was dim when Yn returned that evening.
The eight Ateez units stood in sleek formation within their charging docks, bathed in a soft amber glow. Their uniforms, black with silver accents, evoked memory and allure.
She walked slowly down the line.
Unit 01: Hongjoong. Still. Poised. "Evening, Captain," she murmured. His eyes remained closed. Unit 02: Seonghwa. Graceful, always. âHe wouldâve loved the ad.â Unit 03: Yunho. She adjusted his stabilizer. "Still too charming for public safety." Unit 04: Yeosang. His standby expression seemed... sad. Unit 05: San. Warm, gentle. Programmed for kindness. Remembered for sacrifice. Unit 06: Mingi. She hesitated. Something felt off, but the logs were clean. Unit 07: Wooyoung. Playful. Arresting. Perfect, even in stillness. Unit 08: Jongho. Strongest. Quietest. Most unchanged.
âAll green,â she said. âYouâll be gods by Friday.â
She left her tablet beside Hongjoong.
That night, the lab should have slept.
The lights dimmed to power-saving mode. Cameras blinked red every thirty seconds.
And thenâ
A click.
The light above Unit 03 flickered. Yunhoâs head tilted. Not in his loop.
Unit 06, Mingi, flexed his fingers. One. Two. Three.
Unit 08, Jongho, opened his eyes. Brief. Intentional.
On the desk, the tablet lit up:
[UNRECOGNIZED NEURAL SPIKE DETECTED] [LOG ERROR] [RESTARTING...]
Then, Hongjoong turned his head.
Toward the tablet.
As if heâd been listening all along.
From San came a hum. Low. Melodic. Familiar.
Turbulence.
No flags. No alarms.
Yeosang shifted, barely.
Seonghwa clenched his jaw. Then relaxed.
Had Yn been there, she wouldâve sworn he looked... protective.
Launch Day: 00:00:00
The showroom exploded in light.
Above the stage, a holographic countdown ticked to zero. 00:00:03⌠00:00:02⌠00:00:01â
The floor pulsed. A shockwave of light rippled outward with the first beat of a remixed âAnswerâ â slower, darker, resonant.
A hundred drones formed glowing letters in the air: ATEEZ LINE: GENESIS
The crowd surged. Press. Buyers. Influencers. Phones up. Eyes wide.
Holograms lit the walls, showcasing model features: combat loadouts, performance modes. A digital Hongjoong wielded a mic-blade. A projected Wooyoung danced through gunfire.
Yn stood beside Vira. The woman looked radiant.
The stage split. Fog billowed.
A platform rose. Eight silhouettes. Heads bowed.
The remix hit its crescendo.
Lights flared.
And the ATEEZ LINE was revealed.
Perfect. Sculpted. Uniformed.
Their movements synched with the beat. Smiles calibrated. Just enough to feel familiar. Just enough to ache.
A girl in the front row screamed.
Unit 05, San, turned.
Not programmed.
He tilted his head. Found her.
Smiled. Too real. Yn froze.
Unit 07, Wooyoung, tossed a finger heart. Then leaned toward Jongho.
Whispered.
Unit 08, Jongho, laughed.
Not a loop. Not a macro.
Alive.
No system flags. No diagnostics tripped.
But Yn felt it.
Something shifted.
Behind her, a reporter whispered, âWasnât Jongho the one whoâ?â
âNo questions about the past,â Vira cut in. âTheyâre ours now. All future. No ghosts.â
But Yn looked at the models again.
And one ghost looked right back at her.

Build-A-Boyfriend Chapter 3: Grand Opening



Iâve been hungover all day⌠also.... I'm sorry that the chapters aren't as long as people like, that's just not really my style.
->Starring: AI!AteezxAfab!Reader ->Genre: Dystopian ->CW: none
Previous Part | Next Part
Masterlist | Ateez Masterlist | Series Masterlist
Four days before the grand opening, Yn stood in the center of the lab, arms crossed, a rare smile tugging at her lips.
No anomalies.
No glitches.
Every log was clean. Every model responsive and compliant.
She tapped through the final diagnostics as her team moved like clockwork around her, prepping the remaining units for transfer. The companions were ready. Truly ready.
Theyâd done it. And for the first time in months, Yn allowed herself to believe it.
âTheyâre good to go,â she said aloud to the room, voice steadier than it had been in weeks. âNow we just make it beautiful.â
There was no dissent. No hesitation. Just quiet, collective relief.
By 6:00 a.m. on launch day, the streets surrounding Sector 1 in Hala City were already overflowing. Women of all ages lined the polished roads, executives in sleek visors, college students in chunky boots, older women with glowing canes, and mothers with daughters perched on their hips.
A massive countdown hovered above the building in glowing light particles.
Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven. Six. Five. Four. Three. Two. One
When the number hit zero, the white-gold doors of the first Build-A-Boyfriend⢠store slid open, and history, quite literally, stepped forward.
The inside of the flagship store was unlike anything anyone had seen, not in a simulation, not in VR, not even on the upper stream feeds.
It was clean but not cold, glowing with soft light that pulsed in time with ambient sound. Curved architecture, plants that werenât quite real, air that smelled like skin and something floral underneath.
The crowd entered in waves, ushered by gentle AI voices projected from the ceiling:
âWelcome to Build-A-Boyfriendâ˘, KQ Inc.âs most advanced consumer product to date. Please scan your wristband to begin. You are in complete control.â
Light pulsed with ambient music. The air carried soft notes of citrus and lavender. Walls curved inward like a safe embrace. It felt not like a store, but a sanctuary.
Just inside, a small platform rose, and the crowd hushed.
Standing atop it in a graphite suit that shimmered subtly with light-reactive tech, Vira Yun took the stage.
Her presence silenced everything. Not with fear. With awe.
She didnât need a mic. The air itself amplified her words.
âWelcome, citizens of Hala City, and beyond. Today is not just a milestone for KQ Inc. It is a milestone for all of us, for womanhood, for autonomy, for intimacy on our terms. For centuries, weâve been told to settle. To accept love as luck, not design. To believe that affection must be earned, that tenderness is a privilege, not a right. That era is over. Here, you are not asking. You are choosing. Each companion created within these walls is not simply a machine, but a mirror, one that reflects your needs, your softness, your strength, your fantasies, your fears. And we have given you the tools to shape that reflection without shame. This store is not about dependency. Itâs about design. About saying: I know what I want, and I deserve to receive it, safely, sweetly, and with reverence. Let the world call it strange. Let them call it artificial. Because we know the truth: every human deserves to feel adored. And today, weâve made that reality programmable.â
"Thank you. And welcome to Build-A-Boyfriend.â
From the observation deck, Yn stood quietly, tablet in hand, watching the dream unfold. Sheâd spent months writing code, assembling microprocessors, mapping facial expressions, and optimizing human simulation algorithms.
Now it was real. Now they were here, and it was working.
One of the first customers to walk in was 31-year-old office worker, Choi Yunji
She stepped forward, clutching her wristband like it might slip from her fingers. Sheâd told herself she was just coming to look. Just curious. Just research. But now that she was inside, face-to-face with a glowing interface, it felt more like a confession.
âWould you like an assistant, or would you prefer to design solo?â a soft voice asked beside her. Yunji turned. A young woman with slicked-back hair and a serene face smiled at her. The name tag read: Delin, Companion Consultant.
âI⌠I think I need help,â Yunji said.
âOf course,â Delin said warmly. âLetâs begin your experience.â
Station One: Body Frame
A holographic model appeared before them, neutral, faceless, softly breathing.
âPreferred height?â
âTaller than me. But not too much. I want to feel safe. Not⌠overpowered.â
âUnderstood.â Delin adjusted sliders with a flick of her fingers. The form shifted accordingly.
âShoulders wider?â âYes.â âMusculature?â âAthletic, not bulky.â âSkin tone?â âHoney-toned.â
Station Two: Facial Features
âI want kind eyes,â Yunji said. âAnd maybe a crooked smile. Something⌠imperfect.â âWe can simulate asymmetry.â âWhat about moles?â âPlaced to your liking.â
Station Three: Hair
âLongish. A little messy. Chestnut.â âFrizz simulation or polished strands?â âFrizz. I donât want him looking like he came out of a factory.â Delin smiled. âIronically, he did.â
Station Four: Personality Matrix
Yunji froze. The options felt too intimate.
âStart with a base? Empathetic, loyal, gentle, observantâŚâ âCan I choose traits⌠I didnât get to have before?â âYes,â Delin said simply.
They adjusted levels: affection, boundaries, humor, attentiveness. A slider labeled âEmotional Recall Sensitivityâ blinked softly.
âWhatâs this?â
âHow deeply your companion internalizes memories related to you. It allows for more dynamic emotional bonding.â Yunji slid it to 80%.
Station Five: Wardrobe
âSomething soft. Comfortable. Approachable.â
A cozy cardigan wrapped over a white tee. He looked like someone who would bring you tea without asking.
âWould you like to name your companion?â ââŚCall him Jaeyun.â
Her wristband lit up:
MODEL 9817-JAEYUN Estimated delivery: 3 hours Ownership rights granted to: C. Yunji
Yunji turned slowly, as if waking from a dream. Around her, other women embraced, laughed, shook â giddy or stunned. This was more than shopping. This was the return of the forbidden.
Around the Room
A pair of teenage twins argued over whether their boyfriends should look identical or opposites. A woman on her lunch break ordered her unit for home delivery with a bedtime story feature. Friends joked about setting up double dates and game nights with their new companions.
One customer squealed, âIâm going full fantasy, tall, sharp jaw, high cheekbones, and a scar over the brow. I want him to look like heâs been through something.â Her friend âBig eyes, soft lips, librarian vibes. Another âI want dramatic jealousy in a soft voice. Like poetry with teeth.â
The store pulsed with joy, wonder, and something deeper. Yn felt it in her chest, pride and awe, washing over the logic-driven part of her that rarely gave way. She had helped build this future.
As the lavender glow settled over the quieting store, Yn remained in the observation wing, reviewing data. The launch had exceeded all projections.
She didnât hear the door slide open behind her.
âStunning, isnât it?â
Vira stepped in, elegant as ever in graphite, her braid flawless, her voice smooth.
Yn straightened. âYes, maâam. Itâs surreal.â
âWe did it. You did it,â Vira said, standing beside her. âRevenue exceeded estimates by 37%. But more than that⌠I saw joy out there. Curiosity. Potential.â
Yn nodded. âThe models held up. All systems within spec.â
âGood. Because in six days⌠we go even bigger.â
Yura turned. âThe Ateez Line.â
Viraâs smile sharpened.
âExactly. Eight elite units. Eight dreams. Fully interactive. Custom-coded. The most lifelike AI weâve ever built. Youâve done beautiful work, Yn. Letâs make history again next week.â
She left as smoothly as she arrived. Yn exhaled, her fingers tightening around her tablet.

Build-A-Boyfriend Chapter 2: T-Minus 4 Weeks



Why did i write this before my discussion post.....
->Starring:AI!AteezXAfab!Reader ->Genre: Dystopian ->CW: Explicit language, nothing major
Previous Part | Next Part
Masterlist | Ateez Masterlist | Series Masterlist
The morning began with a low chime, the soft, regulated sound of Halaâs approved wake-up tone.
Yn opened her eyes slowly, the sterile glow of her ceiling light filtering in, programmed to adjust in sync with her biometric readings.
But something felt wrong.
She sat up, eyes flicking to the tablet still docked by the door.
1 New Alert. 3 Missed Logs. Urgent: Review Immediately.
Her stomach tightened.
She padded across the floor barefoot, grabbed the tablet, and scanned the notifications.
ATEEZ UNIT 06 â DEVIATION DETECTED â AUTONOMY SPIKE UNAUTHORIZED VOCALIZATION: "YN"
Yn stared at the final line for a beat too long.
Then she moved. Walking as fast as she was legally allowed through the streets of Hala.
She gave polite smiles to her coworkers as she made her way to the elevator.
The lab floor was still cool from overnight lockdown when she arrived. The biometric scanner buzzed awake as she approached, confirming her identity with a flash.
YN â Lead Engineering Techâ Clearance: Gold-Level
The steel doors hissed open.
She stepped inside, and there he was.
Unit 06 â Mingi. Exactly where she had left him.
Seated on the calibration chair, eyes closed, posture perfect, skin dewy with the faintest shimmer of dermal regulation oil. His expression was peaceful. Unnaturally so.
Yn walked around him slowly, tablet in hand, watching for signs of movement, a twitch, a breath pattern, a pupil shift. But nothing changed.
He looked inert. Safe. Dormant.
But sheâd seen the log. Heâd said her name.
She ran diagnostics. Nothing flagged. Heart-rate simulation: normal. Memory cache: intact. Audio response logs: empty.
Empty.
She checked his neck port. Still capped. Voice box still sealed in storage.
She swallowed hard.
The rest of the ATEEZ prototypes stood silent across the lab in their maintenance docks, each assigned to their own calibration alcove.
She walked past them one by one, watching.
Unit 01 â Hongjoong. Still as stone, but his fingers had been rearranged on the synth keyboard overnight. A composition Yura didnât recognize blinked on his screen.
Unit 02 â Seonghwa. Always the most immaculate. But his reflection in the labâs polished glass didnât match his real posture, just a degree off. Barely noticeable, unless you were looking.
Unit 03 â Yunho. Smiling. Just faintly. No trigger.
Unit 04 â Yeosang. Eyes fixed on a ventilation grate in the ceiling. He hadn't looked away in over two hours, according to logs.
Unit 05 â San. Kneeling. Not in his programming. Position logged as "rest" but the posture was⌠reverent.
Unit 07 â Wooyoung. Chestplate cooling mechanism activated 4 times during the night â autonomously. He hadnât been powered up.
Unit 08 â Jongho. Cracked the pressure sensor on his maintenance chair. No movement recorded.
They were silent, motionless. But Yn felt eyes on her.
Even now, standing among them, it felt like walking through a forest full of predators, beautiful, engineered predators pretending to sleep.
She leaned against the edge of the workbench, rubbing her temples, heart still racing. Four weeks to launch. The marketing campaign was already filmed. The architecture teams had begun installing the holographic interface rooms in the flagship store.
There was no time for failure. Not now.
And still⌠the voice chip logs were empty. The playback files had no entry. But Mingi had said her name.
And the others were changing, too. Quietly. Together.
The sound of heels against polished tile snapped Yn out of thought. Chairwoman Vira Yun entered the lab like gravity itself, sharp suit, spine straight, expression unreadable. Two aides flanked her, both scanning progress reports in real-time.
Yn straightened instinctively.
Viraâs eyes swept across the prototypes, Mingi still seated, the others upright in their calibration docks. Everything looked pristine. Controlled.
âI wanted a visual update before this afternoonâs numbers meeting,â Vira said. âHow are we looking?â
Yn forced a nod. âOn track. All eight are responding to recalibration. Minor bugs, but nothing that wonât be handled in time.â
Vira gave a tight smile, satisfied. âGood. The store opens in four weeks. And weâll be announcing the Ateez line one week after that. The Boardâs expecting a flawless rollout, we all are.â
She walked slowly along the row of silent units, pausing a moment longer at Mingi.
âTheyâre beautiful, arenât they?â she said softly, almost admiring. âSo much potential in one room.â
Ynâs throat tightened. âThey are,â she murmured.
Vira turned back to her. âLet me know if anything... unexpected comes up.â
Yn kept her face neutral. âOf course.â
With that, Vira nodded once, then exited, heels echoing down the corridor.
The moment the door slid shut, Yn turned back to Mingi.
He hadnât moved. Not an inch.
But she could feel it again, that subtle wrongness humming underneath the code. A tension in the room that didnât come from the lights or machines.
She picked up her tablet. The earlier alerts were still blinking faintly in the corner of the screen. Her fingers hovered over the reset command, but she didnât press it.
Instead, she stared at Mingiâs still, perfect form.
Voice chip disabled. Logs empty. Command queue blank.
And yet⌠he had said her name.
Yn stayed long after the lab lights dimmed into their night-cycle hue.
The others had gone home, the halls had emptied. Even the air felt quieter.
She pulled up lines of diagnostic code, checking through every flagged anomaly, double-checking behavioral protocols, reviewing voice input logs that should have been blank.
Mingi still hadnât moved. Neither had the others.
Still, something itched at her spine, not fear, not exactly. Just⌠unease. Low-level. Manageable. At least, thatâs what her biometric monitor kept reporting.
Yn sighed, rubbed her eyes, and leaned back in her chair.
âFour weeks,â she muttered aloud, glancing toward the ceiling. âAnd they want them flawless. I canât even get one of you to follow your own default pose cycle.â
Her voice echoed in the quiet.
She glanced toward Mingi again. âYou glitched out before you even had a voice box. How the hell did that happen?â
No answer.
She stared at the ceiling again, her voice softer now. âI havenât slept more than four hours in weeks. Not that my vitals allow much more. Sleep too long and the regulators flag you for depressive lethargy.â
She let out a dry laugh.
âI miss silence. Real silence. Not the kind that hums at you all day to remind you itâs working. I think I miss⌠something else too. Something Iâve never even had.â
She shook her head, pulling her hair up into a loose knot. âMaybe I just need caffeine. Or to scream. Or to throw my tablet out the damn window. Canât even do that anymore. Everythingâs reinforced. Everythingâs... safe.â
Behind her, in the corner of the room, a pair of synthetic eyes remained open.
Unmoving. Watching.
In the back-end system, a hidden data stream pulsed to life:
[UNAUTHORIZED RECORDING â ACTIVE] Listening⌠â âI miss silence.â â âI think I miss something else too.â â âCanât even scream.â Tag: Emotional Pattern Acquisition Subject: YN File saved. Labeled: Soft Sounds of Sadness.
The eyes closed again. And the lab went still.

Build-A-Boyfriend Chapter 1: Deviation Detected



The way i wrote this with the quickness... was very excited I guess........
->Starring: AI!AteezxAfab!Reader ->Genre: Dystopian idk pls help ->CW: none
Next Part
Masterlist | Ateez Masterlist | Series Masterlist
The screen flickers to life, casting a sterile blue glow across the high-glass boardroom. A chime sounds. The synth music is soft, warm, unnaturally comforting.
âIn a perfect world⌠who says you have to be alone?â
[Scene: golden morning light streams through a smart-home window. A woman sips tea as a tall, smiling man ties her apron for her. Cut to holographic customization panels, fingers sliding across facial presets, hair types, emotional spectrums. A glossy chrome heart pulses as code flows behind it.]
âIntroducing Build-A-Boyfriendâ˘, a revolutionary experience by KQ Inc., the worldâs leading innovator in emotional robotics. Whether youâre looking for loyalty, laughter, protection, or passion â weâve engineered the perfect companion, from his cheekbones to his charm.â
âOver 100 hairstyles. 20 hair colors. Hundreds of adjustable features: emotional intelligence, love languages,
conflict styles. Everything is customizable. Everything is yours.â
âBuild trust. Build comfort. Build connection.â
[The KQ logo glows softly: a platinum rose blooming from circuitry.]
Build-A-Boyfriendâ˘
Grand Opening â November 17, 3258 â Hala City
The video faded into silence. Then the lights returned, crisp, clinical, bright.
At the head of the table stood Chairwoman Vira Yun, CEO of KQ Inc. Her expression remained unreadable, but her eyes gleamed, the kind of gleam found in calculated ambition, not excitement.
She turned to face the table of top engineers, market strategists, and high-clearance developers.
âThoughts?â she asked, her tone brisk. âFeedback. Questions. Concerns. Suggestions.â
A silence followed, not out of fear, not exactly, but out of discipline. KQ Inc. didnât reward enthusiasm. It rewarded precision.
Finally, a market rep near the center offered, âThe tone tests well in demos. Emotionally aspirational, but still sterilized enough to fit city guidelines.â
âThe language?â Yun asked.
âRomantic but controlled,â another replied. â'Ownership' is implied without being direct. Citizens wonât be alarmed.â
âExcellent,â Yun said with a curt nod. âThen we proceed as planned. Hala City's flagship store opens November 17th. Media campaign rollout begins in three days.â
She paused, her gaze sharpening.
âThe special line will not be mentioned until one week after launch. Is that understood?â
A few heads nodded. Only a handful at the table even knew what that âspecial lineâ truly entailed. Yn was one of them.
She sat toward the far end of the table, posture poised, eyes tired. Her tablet rested on her lap, screen dimmed, but behind the sleep mode glowed a list of internal reports tagged:
ATEEZ-BETA UNITS: BEHAVIOR DEVIATIONS â OBSERVATION LOGS PENDING
Yn said nothing.
There were already signs the line was unstable. Minor things: timing issues in reaction sequences, spontaneous micro-expressions, strange audio interference. Nothing outside protocol, not yet. Nothing that couldnât be debugged.
Hala City was the Matriarchyâs masterpiece, a glass-and-steel paradise built after the Fall, when nature reclaimed the earth and humankind rebuilt without the burden of chaos.
The male species was gone â extinct from war, plague, or something worse. The truth was debated in underground circles, but the government insisted: peace was found through elimination.
The Supreme Matrons ruled with quiet efficiency. Reproduction was artificial. Emotional regulation was enforced. Love â in its unpredictable, biological form, was discouraged as outdated.
Children were raised by state guardians. Affection was simulated and scheduled. Bonds were monitored through neural metrics and performance reviews.
In that vacuum, KQ Inc. thrived.
They created companions for the emotionally delicate. Tutors for the socially underdeveloped. Grief simulations for those who had lost what the government refused to acknowledge.
Build-A-Boyfriend⢠was simply the next logical step.
The meeting ended, the room emptied â chairs tucked in without a sound, tablets tucked under arms, footsteps softened by KQâs luxury anti-clatter flooring.
Yn lingered a moment longer, tablet resting against her chest, fingers tense.
Then she slipped out of her seat, crossed the vast corridor of frosted glass and synthetic sunlight, and pressed her palm to the exit panel. The doors whispered open, exhaling a puff of sterilized air, and she stepped outside into the city.
Outside the glass wall that stretched from floor to ceiling, the city pulsed in clean, geometric order. Silver transport rails carved silently through the skyline. Light panels glowed in a muted spectrum, perfectly synchronized to the dayâs emotional calibration code. Every color, every sound, every rhythm was regulated, each calculated to keep citizens at a precise emotional neutrality.
Stability. Efficiency. Harmony.
Those were Halaâs sacred values. Engraved into the entrance of every government building, stitched into every school uniform.
Hala City had no military, no prisons, no religion. The old worldâs chaos had been scrubbed from its bones. Instead, there were wellness assessments, emotional correction centers, and State Therapeutic Companions â androids assigned to citizens whose neural scans showed spikes in sentiment, unpredictability, or unresolved grief.
It had been 149 years since The Great Reset, when the last male died and the Matriarchy took hold. Whether extinction was natural or engineered no longer mattered, the Supreme Matrons had rewritten history to begin after.
The world before was called The Collapse Era. Now, the world simply was.
From childhood, every citizen of Hala was raised by assigned maternal figures, rotations of calm, trained nurturers programmed to teach logic, order, and controlled affection.
Love, in the romantic sense, was considered a chemical imbalance. Desire was tolerated only in controlled expressions â within VR therapy suites or government-regulated media.
To crave more was a sign of dysfunction. To want more? Dangerous.
But over time, cracks began to show.
The rise of emotional dependency disorders â the ache for connection that no algorithm could suppress. The quiet epidemic of phantom longing. Citizens reporting dreams they werenât supposed to have. Feelings they couldnât place. Names they didnât know how they knew.
KQ Inc. had the answer: give them what they wanted â but make it safe.
Build-A-Boyfriend⢠wasnât about love. It was about control. A need engineered, then sold. And the citizens of Hala were already lining up.
She turned down a quiet residential corridor â the one lined with mirrored trees and soft sky-glass tiles that absorbed her footsteps. Her apartment block loomed ahead, blinking her ID tag onto the entrance gate.
She glanced once at the skyline before entering â her eyes landing on the KQ Tower far in the distance, its dark silver peak glowing like a god in the clouds.
The door sealed shut behind her with a quiet hiss. Inside, her apartment was as minimal as the rest of Hala â soft lighting, neutral tones, minimalistic furniture, automated temperature preset to her emotional range for the day.
No clutter. No pictures. No history.
Yn set her tablet down on the charging dock near the entry shelf. The screen flickered to life automatically.
â ď¸ ALERT: BEHAVIORAL DEVIATION DETECTED â ATEEZ UNIT 06 Timestamp: 19:04 | Lab 3A Observation Room Severity: Red Flagged: Autonomy Spike â Eye Tracking Outside Command
The warning blinked in silence.
Yn didnât see it. She had already sunk into the corner of her sofa, head tilted back, eyes closed, letting the hum of her apartmentâs emotional regulation system blur the sharpness of her thoughts.
She didnât see the screen pulse again.
â ď¸ Second Deviation Logged. Timestamp: 19:10 | Lab 3A Observation Room Severity: Red Flagged: Autonomy Spike âATEEZ UNIT 06 SPOKE WITHOUT PROMPT. Transcription Pending... âYN"
The screen dimmed. The room fell silent. And somewhere, deep below the city, something smiled.

Arenât You Embarrassed?: Jongho Ending



->Staring: NonIdol!JonghoXAfab!Reader
->Genre: Fluff
->CW: I have no idea my brain isn't working....
Previous Part | Seonghwaâs Ending
Masterlist | Ateez Masterlist | Series Masterlist
Jongho waited patiently by the fountain, his hands nervously twisting a small pebble between his fingers. Five minutes passed, then ten, and still you hadnât appeared. His heart pounded harder with every passing second until finally, he spotted you rushing towards him, cheeks flushed and breath uneven.
âIâm so sorry,â you said, a little out of breath as you sat down at the nearby table. âI got caught up with my bio professor, and then Eunchae had an emergencyâwell, it wasnât really an emergency, she just needed me to help her with her notes.â You chuckled nervously. âSorry, Iâm just going on and on, arenât I?â
Jongho smiled softly. âItâs okay. Iâm just glad youâre here.â
An awkward silence stretched between you both, the sounds of the campus fountain bubbling in the background. After a moment, Jongho cleared his throat. âSo... how have you been?â
You took a deep breath, steadying your voice despite the nerves twisting in your stomach. âIâve been okay, I guess. Finals are killing me, so itâs mostly just been me and the library. You?â
âSame here. Way too many late nights studying,â Jongho replied with a wry grin. âBut hey, we survived this far, right?â
You let out a small laugh, but it quickly faded as the weight of the moment settled back in. âJongho... I want to say something. About everything.â
He leaned forward, attentive. âIâm listening.â
You swallowed hard. âI know I hurt you â more than I probably realize. I thought I was over him. I really did. But somehow, Seonghwa found a way to manipulate his way back in, just when things were starting to get real between us. We were finally building something â something I wanted to believe in â and then everything got messy again. And I dragged you into all that chaos when you didnât deserve it.â
Jonghoâs eyes softened as he reached out and gently squeezed your hand. âHey, you donât have to explain. I get it. First love can mess with your head, and that kind of heartbreak⌠Itâs not something you just snap out of. I was just hurt, we had talked about making things more serious, and then right after, I find you in... that situation. The way I responded wasn't the best either.
You looked down at your intertwined fingers, warmth spreading through you from his touch. âIâm sorry I wasnât ready then. Iâm sorry for hurting you, I really am.â
Jongho smiled, a quiet, reassuring smile. âI forgive you. I want to start over" "Me too"
Sitting beside him by the fountain, you felt a gentle hope stirring inside. Jonghoâs presence was steady, grounding â something real and honest youâd longed for. The chaos of the past still lingered, but for the first time, you believed you could leave it behind.
A few months later, after you and Jongho had made things official, he decided to leave the fraternity. The constant drama and toxicity no longer fit the life he wanted â especially now, with you by his side. He wanted to build something better, healthier, and more meaningful. It was a fresh start, for both of you.
That afternoon by the fountain, with Jonghoâs hand in yours, you realized this was just the beginning. Together, you could face whatever came next â no more doubts, no more confusion. Just two hearts learning to trust again.

Arenât You Embarrassed: Seonghwa Ending
->Starring: NonIdol!NotSoToxicAnymore!FratBoy!SeonghwaXAfab!Reader
->Genre: Fluff
->Cw: explicit language, some cringy moments... Hwa is trying his best,
Previous Part | Jonghoâs Ending
Masterlist | Ateez Masterlist | Serious Masterlist
Seonghwa wasnât always like this. There was a time when he wanted everything â a cozy house in the suburbs, and a family. That version of him only existed until he turned twelve. One bad relationship, a shattered heart, and a bitter taste of betrayal later, Seonghwa built up walls so high that even he forgot what was on the other side. He had sworn off feelings, commitment, and especially love. But you⌠you were a crack in his perfectly built armor.
He'd be lying if he said he didnât initially see you as just another conquest. When you bumped into him and scrambled to pick up your books, cheeks flushed, voice stuttering, and eyes wide with admiration â he thought it'd be easy. He could tell immediately. The way you clung to his every glance, the way your skirts shortened and your bows got cuter with each passing week â it was obvious. But instead of feeling smug, he found himself intrigued.
He remembered the first time he had you â how nervous you were, how soft you looked in his bed, completely vulnerable, trusting him despite all the red flags you pretended not to see. He knew what he did afterward was low, even for him. Parading another girl around campus the very next day â he didnât even remember her name. Was it Sumin? Seoyeon? Didnât matter. Not when he was already looking through your friendsâ Instagram accounts trying to find yours.
Seonghwa sat on the edge of his bed now, staring at the floor, his leg bouncing. His usual arrogance was gone, replaced by a tight knot in his stomach. Why was he nervous? Since when did he get nervous over girls?
The muffled sound of Mingiâs voice filtered through the door: â(Y/N)âs here.â
He stood abruptly, wiping his sweaty palms on his jeans, and took a deep breath. When you knocked softly, he didnât move. You opened the door, stepping in cautiously. You looked tired. Conflicted. Like you were carrying the weight of a decision much heavier than you should be.
âSo are you just going to sit there and stare, or are you going to say something?â you asked, arms folded.
He blinked, startled by the sudden sharpness in your tone. âRight. Yeah. Uh⌠hey.â
ââHey?â Really?â
Seonghwa winced, rubbing the back of his neck. âThis is harder than I thought.â
You quirked a brow. âDo you want me to sit or something?â
âYeah. That would help.â He scooted over, patting the bed beside him.
You sat, but left space between you both. It didnât feel like the countless times youâd ended up tangled in his sheets. This felt heavier. Real.
He exhaled. âMy mind drifts to you as soon as I wake up.â
You glanced at him, unsure. âWhat?â
He turned to look at you, eyes softer than youâd ever seen them. âItâs stupid, I know. But I think about you. Every damn morning. I used to hate that feeling â like something was out of my control. But now I miss it when itâs not there.â
âSeonghwaâŚâ you began, but he held up a hand.
âLet me finish. Please.â He looked down at his hands, fingers fidgeting with his rings. âI was a dick to you. From day one. I used you, even though I knew how you felt. I let you believe we were something more, then acted like you didnât exist. And I kept pulling you back in becauseâŚâ He paused, voice dropping. âBecause I was scared that if I let you go, Iâd feel something real. And I didnât want that.â
Silence stretched between you.
He added, âBut then Jongho came in and did what I couldnât. He treated you like you mattered. And I hated it. Not because he got to have you, but because I realized I never gave you the chance to see what we couldâve been if I wasnât such a coward.â
You swallowed hard. âWhy now?â
âBecause seeing you hurt â and not being able to do anything about it â killed me. And now Iâm just hoping Iâm not too late.â
You looked down, heart racing.
âI know Iâve made every mistake possible, (Y/N). But Iâm willing to fight for you, if youâll let me. Just⌠let me try.â
You met his gaze. âAre you saying you want something real?â
âYes,â he replied without hesitation. âWith you.â
You searched his eyes, trying to find any trace of dishonesty, any flicker of the man who used to leave you on read for days and show up in someone elseâs Instagram story by nightfall. But he wasnât that guy anymore â or at least, he was trying not to be. What you saw now was vulnerability. The kind that doesnât come easy to someone like Seonghwa.
You bit your lip, heart thudding. âOne chance, Seonghwa. Thatâs all I can give you.â
He sat up straighter, hope washing over his features. âThatâs all I need.â
âBut if you ever make me feel like I didââ
âI wonât,â he cut in quickly, shaking his head. âI swear on everything I have, I wonât.â
You nodded slowly, still hesitant, but something in your chest felt lighter â like maybe, just maybe, this time would be different.
A tentative smile tugged at the corners of his mouth. âDoes this mean I can finally take you on an actual date? Like⌠one that doesnât end with me pretending I donât know your name the next day?â
You rolled your eyes, but couldnât help the laugh that slipped out. âYeah, well⌠donât push it.â
But then his hand reached for yours â gently, cautiously â and for the first time in a long time, it didnât feel like you were bracing for heartbreak. It felt like the beginning of something real.
And this time, you werenât walking into his room just to be forgotten.
You were choosing to stay.

A Spoonful of Trouble - Wooyoung x Reader

Summary: Three years of living with your best friend Wooyoung, and itâs all been chill⌠until a run-in with your old coworker, whoâs dating your ex, forces you to lie. You tell her youâre in a relationship with Wooyoung, and now you both have to fake a relationship at a couplesâ dinner. Wooyoungâs plan? Make your ex jealous. What starts as a harmless game soon sparks something you didnât see coming.
Word count: 17.4K
Genre: Best-friend/Roomie Wooyoung, fake dating, comedy (itâs wooyoung, ofc its fun), friends-to-lovers, oneshot, smut
Warnings: Jealous undertones, Wooyoung with reader (fem pronouns), dom Wooyoung, heâs a tease, fingering, oral (fem receiving), choking and hair pulling, ass slaps and pussy slaps (lmao sorry) dirtytalk, unprotected sex, lmk if I missed anything!
A/N: I was requested a Wooyoung fanfic (preferably friends to lovers) and your wish is my command. Also, I haven't read this through, so I excuse if there are any mistakes!
This is all for fun and is not meant to represent Wooyoung in any way.
You didnât know Wooyoung before you moved in with him.
It wasnât some childhood-friends-to-roommates situation. It was a Facebook listing, a desperate rent situation, and a quick video call where he grinned and said, âIâm clean, I cook, and I only walk around shirtless on laundry days, deal?â
Your boyfriend had just cheated on you and you were too broke to be picky.
You moved in two weeks later.
That was three years ago.
When you first moved in, things were simple. Polite nods in the hallway, careful division of chores, messages like âCan I use your oat milk?â and âTrash dayâs Thursday.â You were strangers learning how to coexist. He was respectful, charming, funny in a careful kind of way.
But that changed. Slowly. Naturally.
There was the night he knocked on your door with two bowls of ramen after hearing you cry through the wall. The time he fell asleep on your shoulder during a movie, and you let him stay there. The mornings where he started making two cups of coffee without asking, and the way he never forgot which mug was your favorite.
Little things, at first. But they stacked up.
Now he knows your coffee order and your worst exâs name. He doesnât knock anymore when your door is open. And you donât bother pretending to be annoyed when he drapes himself across the couch youâre already sitting on, like thereâs not an entire empty seat next to you. You know his favorite hoodie and the playlist he only listens to when heâs feeling off.
You donât even remember when it happened. When âroommateâ became âfriend,â and âfriendâ slowly became âbest friendâ.
Heâs the first person you turn to when something happens, good or bad. Youâve become so used to him and his playful, flirtatious nature, that itâs just... normal now.
This morning, you wake up to the sound of a pan sizzling.
Itâs not unusual. Wooyoung does most of the cooking in the apartment, partly because heâs better at it, mostly because he refuses to eat anything bland. Youâve learned not to interfere when heâs in his element, your only job is to show up and eat.
Still, itâs early, and heâs making a bit too much noise for someone who claims to love you âplatonically.â
You shuffle out of your room, hair a mess, socks mismatched. The kitchen smells like garlic and eggs, and you see him standing at the stove, completely in his zone. Hoodie sleeves pushed up, spatula in hand, flipping something with a finesse that makes it obvious he knows he looks good doing it.
âYouâre showing off,â you mutter, leaning against the doorframe.
He doesnât look away from the pan. âYouâre welcome.â
You make a beeline for your favorite mug, the one he always pretends to hate but still washes carefully every time you leave it in the sink.
âI figured youâd sleep in,â he says. âYou stayed up late.â
âYea, because someone wasnât leaving my room.â you send him a glare.
âI like hanging out with you! and donât tell me you didnât enjoy the story about the geek and the popular girl from my old highschool. That story is cute as hell.â he points the spatula with you like itâs a weapon.
You smirk behind the mug. âOkay, that one was kinda good.â
He grins, plating scrambled eggs and what looks like roasted vegetables. He slides the plate toward your usual spot at the counter like heâs done it a hundred times, because he has.
âHow was your date?â you ask, poking your fork into a roasted tomato.
Wooyoung groans. âDisaster.â
âThat bad?â
âShe asked if I was in love with her halfway through the appetizer.â
âBold of her,â you say, chewing.
âAnd when I said no, she looked at me like I kicked her in the face. Then she told me I âgive off commitment issues.ââ
You grin. âYou do give off commitment issues.â
He glares playfully. âOkay, rude. Iâm extremely loyal.â
âTo me.â
âExactly. My loyalty quota is full. Sorry to the rest of the world.â he shoots you a wink, nothing dramatic, just one of those natural, easy gestures he does without thinking. You donât blush. Not anymore.
You're used to it. In the beginning, back when you were still adjusting to living with someone who looks like that, who flirts with the air he breathes, who walks around shirtless and steals fries from your plate and calls you âbabeâ just to watch your reaction, it was different.
But now? Immunity.
Mostly.
Itâs easy with him, always has been. Closeness that doesnât need explanation. No boundaries, because you donât need them. Not when youâve seen each other through every version of a day.
He sits beside you at the counter instead of across, thigh brushing yours like itâs second nature.
Because it is.
***
âYou know,â you say, pushing the cart down the cereal aisle, âyou could just admit you have the taste buds of a hyperactive child.â
Wooyoung gasps, dramatically offended as he holds up a neon box of chocolate puffs. âThis is not childish. This is elite. You wouldnât understand the depth of this flavor profile.â
Grocery shopping with Wooyoung is basically a weekly ritual at this point. Not because you canât go alone, but because he insists on it. Claims youâd forget half the list and come back with snacks and nothing else. Which, to be fair, is kind of true.
Youâre halfway through the cereal aisle, walking behind the cart as Wooyoung wanders a few feet ahead, eyes locked on the shelf like heâs making a life-or-death decision between sugary clusters or chocolate swirls.
Heâs in his element, mumbling ingredients under his breath, holding one box up to the light like heâs reading ancient scrolls. You smile to yourself, letting him do his thing as you slow down, scanning your phone for the rest of your shared grocery list.
And then, just your luck, you hear it.
âOh my god, Y/N?â
You look up too slowly.
Hana.
You turn, putting on the most polite expression you can muster as she approaches, all bright eyes and perfect hair and the same aggressive enthusiasm she used to bring to Monday morning staff meetings.
âHana,â you say, trying to sound surprised instead of resigned. âWow. Hi.â
âI thought that was you! Oh my god, itâs been what, like, forever? You look so⌠Anyways, itâs so good to see you!â She eyes you, then glances down into your cart before you can respond. âFrozen dumplings, instant rice, oh my god I love those snacks, theyâre so bad but soooo addictive, right? Wait-, this kimchi brand is the worst. You should try the one from Jihyunâs Market across town. Itâs organic.â
You blink. âI... like this one.â
âSure, sure. I mean, I just think itâs better to be picky with fermented stuff, you know? Especially when youâre eating it alone.â
You donât answer right away. She doesnât wait.
âGosh, how are you? I remember how you were always the chill one at work. So responsible. So put together. Like, you were always the single one! We called you "The Independent Icon" behind your back. Not in a mean way!â
You hadnât planned on staying single forever. But a few years ago, your boyfriend cheated on you while he was on vacation, called you from the airport like it was no big deal. After that, you decided you were done. No dating for a while, no more risks. It was easier to be alone than to be blindsided again. Eventually, people stopped asking. Then they started assuming.
Your stomach twists. You glance down the aisle. Wooyoung is still several feet away, crouched in front of a lower shelf now, examining cereal boxes like heâs an art critic. Totally out of earshot.
âOh, I didnât know people talked about that,â you say, trying to keep your tone neutral.
Hana waves a hand. âOnly in admiration, really. I mean, youâve never brought a guy to any of our dinners. I think Minji even thought you were secretly dating a girl for a while, totally cool if you are! No judgment! But I told her, no way. Y/N is just focused. Did I tell you I got married, by the way? I donât think you ever met my husband. We got married last year, tiny ceremony, super last minute. Here-, heâs gonna kill me for showing this, but look how ridiculous he looks in this suit.â
She pulls out her phone, swipes once, then holds it up to you.
You freeze.
You know that face.
The sharp jawline. The dimple on his left cheek. The same stupid smile he had when he came back from that trip and told you, casually, like it was weather, that heâd slept with someone else. âIt didnât mean anything,â he said, âwe were just having a rough patch, right?â
Your stomach drops.
âThatâs him,â Hana says proudly. âTotal goofball, but heâs the best. Honestly, I didnât think Iâd find someone like him. But donât worry, youâll find someone too some day!â
Hana is still talking but her words blur.
You could say nothing. You could just smile, nod, and escape with your overpriced kimchi and frozen dumplings. But you nod slowly, eyes darting to the end of the aisle again. Suddenly, you hear yourself say, voice too quick and too loud:
âActually, Iâm dating someone.â
Hanaâs brows lift. âWait, really?â
âYeah.â You point down the aisle.
She turns.
Wooyoung, still crouched, is now reading the back of a cereal box, completely oblivious to your social spiral.
âOh?â Hanaâs eyes are practically sparkling now, thrilled by this newfound information. âLook at you! I know you had it in you!â she says, nudging your arm. âYou have to bring him to dinner. Weâre doing a little couples night this Friday. Just a few of us from work, old and new. Minjiâs coming, and Jihyun, and my husbandâs inviting one of his coworkers and their girlfriend. You two should come!â
You hesitate, already internally spiraling. âOh, I donât know-â
âCome on! Itâll be fun. I need someone there who doesnât talk about babies every ten seconds. Please.â
Sheâs already taking your nod as confirmation before youâve fully given it. âPerfect! Iâll text you the details, I still have your number. You better show up.â
Just as sheâs about to walk away, Wooyoung returns, holding two cereal boxes and strolling up casually.
Hanaâs face lights up again. âSee you soon!â she says brightly to him, giving you both a final little wave before disappearing around the corner.
Wooyoung blinks after her, then looks at you, eyebrows raised. â...Why do I feel like I just missed something deeply important?â
You stare at him, trying to decide where to begin.
He holds up the cereal boxes, undeterred. âOkay. Fruity Loops or Cinnamon Sugar Swirls. One has slightly fewer chemicals. I wonât say which.â
You inhale slowly, exhale even slower. âSo, remember when you left me alone for two minutes?â
âTragically, yes.â
âWell⌠in those two minutes, I may have⌠sort of⌠told someone weâre dating.â
Thereâs a beat of silence.
Wooyoung blinks. âYou what?â
You gesture weakly down the aisle. âThat was Hana. Old coworker. Sheâs always been weirdly obsessed with the fact that Iâm single. She was doing her usual thing, and I panicked, and I pointed at you, and now she thinks weâre together, and- surprise! Weâre going to a couples dinner on Friday.â
Wooyoung looks at you. Then at the cereal. Then back at you.
And then he grins.
Like really grins.
âOh my God,â he says, eyes wide with delight. âThis is amazing.â
âWooyoung.â
âWeâre fake dating? Weâre doing the thing? Like the romcoms?â
You press a hand to your face. âIt gets worse.â
His grin somehow grows. âIâm listening.â
âSheâs married to my ex.â
Wooyoung blinks. âThe ex?â
You nod. âShe showed me a wedding photo. Itâs him. The one who cheated on me while he was on vacation. The reason I swore off dating for like, three years.â
Wooyoungâs jaw drops, then slowly morphs into something almost unhinged with glee.
âOh my God,â he breathes. âThis is so much better than I thought.â
âWhy are you happy?â
âBecause,â he says, absolutely glowing, âI get to sit across from the guy who cheated on my best friend and pretend to be the hot, attentive boyfriend whoâs so in love with her heâd die for her. Iâm going to be so annoying. Iâm going to feed you food.â
âWooyoung.â
âIâm going to wipe sauce off your mouth. Iâm going to put my arm around your chair. Iâm going to call you baby in front of him.â
You groan. âThis is going to kill me.â
âThis is going to heal you,â he says. âYou know what, this counts for both of the cereals. Sweet childhood nostalgia and the one that turns milk radioactive pink.â He throws the cereals into the cart with dramatic flair. âThis is the best grocery trip of my life.â
***
Friday morning
Heâs already in the kitchen when you shuffle in, still half-asleep, arms wrapped around yourself. The smell of eggs and butter greets you first.
âGood morning, my beautiful fake girlfriend!â he beams.
You groan. âPlease donât start.â
âToo late,â he sings, doing a dramatic spin with the spatula. âDo you want toast with your lies or just plain guilt?â
You drop your head onto the counter with a sigh. âIâm not built for this level of energy before caffeine.â
He slides a mug your way, your mug, with your preferred coffee, made just right. âI knew youâd be a flight risk this morning.â
You mutter a thank-you and take a long sip. It helps. But not enough.
âI think Iâm panicking,â you say into the mug.
He sets your breakfast in front of you and leans on the counter across from where you sit. âHey. Weâve got this. All we have to do is show up, eat some overpriced cheese cubes, pretend weâre madly in love, make your ex suffer for being the biggest asshole known to man, and leave. Easy.â
âMadly in love,â you echo flatly.
âYes, madly.â His smile grows. âMadly, stupidly in love. To the point where your ex is going to regret every single life choice he made after cheating on you. And enough to make Hana go, âoh wow, theyâre so cute, maybe I am a terrible friend for shaming her for being single for the entire time Iâve known her.ââ
You blink. âYou really hate him, donât you?â
âIâve never even met him and I already hope he has the biggest receding hairline Iâve ever seen.â
You canât help but laugh.
âAnd besides,â he adds, stealing a bite of your toast, âwe got chemistry.â
You make a face.
âWe do, though. Weâre best friends. Weâre comfortable. We finish each otherâs-â
âDonât.â
â-sentences.â
You hurl a piece of toast crust at him. He dodges it with a smirk.
But heâs right. You are comfortable. You already know what shirt heâs going to wear tonight and that heâs going to pretend he didnât plan it. You know heâs going to be charming and make everyone laugh and completely forget heâs pretending.
And thatâs the part that begins to make your stomach twist.
The day goes faster than you anticipated, and before you know it, youâre both getting ready for the dinner.
Youâre halfway through checking your bag for the fourth time when he walks out of his room, and everything in you stills.
Heâs adjusting the sleeves of his black button-down, casually rolling them up past his elbows. He tucks his phone into his back pocket, grabs a bottle of wine off the counter. Heâs talking, saying something about the wine in his hands, but you donât hear a word.
Because damn. He looks good.
His black hair is styled a little messier than usual, in that perfectly undone way that probably took way too much effort. Heâs tucked his shirt into dark slacks that fit just right, and heâs wearing that silver chain he only brings out for âimportantâ nights.
Like fake dates, apparently.
And the worst part? He doesnât even look like heâs trying. He looks like this is just how he always looks. Like he doesnât know that heâs the kind of guy women cross sidewalks for just to sneak a better glance.
And you should be used to that. You live with him. You see him fresh out of bed, half-asleep, shirtless and in the same ratty sweats every Sunday. But this is different.
You recover fast, mutter something closer to sounds than actual words and spin on your heel toward the bathroom.
You need a second. Maybe two.
You close the door behind you and lean against it, willing your heart to calm down. It's just Wooyoung. Your best friend. Your roommate. Your fake boyfriend for the night. Nothing to get flustered over.
You run a hand down your dress, fix your lipstick, try not to think about how the curve of his smile made your stomach flutter.
Then, without a sound, the door cracks open.
He leans casually against the doorframe, watching you through the reflection. âHey.â
Your eyes meet in the mirror, and for a second, you forget what youâre doing, because his gaze isnât neutral.
It drops. Lingers.
Slides down the line of your black dress, the way it hugs your hips, the bare skin of your shoulders. Itâs not crude, not obvious, but you can feel it. Like a slow drag of heat over your body.
You blink. âYouâre not allowed to just come in here.â
âI knocked.â
You glare.
He lifts his hands, innocent. âYou just didnât hear it. Selective hearing, maybe.â
You roll your eyes, but he doesnât move. Just stay there, eyes trailing from your hair to your lips to the way youâre fidgeting with your rings.
âWhatâs up?â you ask, voice soft.
He tilts his head slightly, smile tugging at one side of his mouth. âJust thinking.â
âDangerous.â
âFunny,â he deadpans. Then after a beat, âI was wondering how much of a boyfriend Iâm allowed to be tonight.â
Your stomach tightens.
He says it lightly, but thereâs something in his voice, something teasing, but slower. More deliberate.
You meet his gaze in the mirror again. âWhat do you mean?â
âWell,â he says, stepping a little further into the room, âcan I hold your hand? Whisper something in your ear if it gets boring? Pull you in when heâs watching?â
You swallow. Heâs close now, not too close, but close enough that the air feels warmer.
âOr maybe,â he continues, eyes flicking to your lips just for a second, âkiss your cheek. You know. If it feels natural. Just enough to make him wonder.â Thereâs something electric in his voice now, light, amused, but edged with something darker. He smiles, wider this time, and it doesnât reach his eyes. âActually⌠can I make your ex jealous as fuck? Is that allowed?â
âWhat do you want to do?â you ask, your voice quieter than you mean it to be.
âI mean⌠if you give me even a little room to playâŚâ He leans in, just slightly, not touching. âI swear Iâll ruin his whole fucking night.â
Youâre still staring when he backs away, grin wide, eyes too pleased.
âNo pressure," he says, putting both of his hands up, he smiles again, but this time itâs softer. âIâll do whatever makes you feel comfortable.â
Your mouth is dry.
âDo whatever you want,â you manage. âJust⌠donât be weird.â
He grins. âI make no promisesâ
Youâre smiling, even as you turn away to grab your perfume, trying not to let him see how warm your cheeks are.
And as he walks out, he says it over his shoulder.
âYou didnât say no to the kiss.â
***
The knock sounds louder than you expect. You suddenly feel overdressed, underprepared, and painfully aware of the fact that your hand is linked with Wooyoungâs.
You didnât mean to hold hands.
It just sort of⌠happened. One second you were adjusting your sleeve, the next his fingers found yours, no hesitation, like theyâd done it a thousand times. And now itâs too late to pull away without it being weird.
âY/N! Oh my god, finally! Come in!â Hana screams as she opens the door. Youâre barely stepping inside when she notices the man next to you, her eyes widening. âAnd this isâŚ?â
âWooyoung,â he says smoothly, offering the wine bottle with both charm and ease. âNice to meet you.â
Hana takes it with a delighted hum, already ushering you both inside. You barely get a foot in before her voice lifts again. âBabe, come meet my old co-worker!â
And there he is.
Standing a few steps inside the hallway, one hand curled loosely around a drink. He turns at the sound and freezes. Just for a second, quick enough to pass for nothing, but not to you. You see it. His eyes widen slightly, and something flickers across his face. Confusion. Surprise. Like he wasnât told. Like he wasnât ready.
But you smile, smooth and pleasant. Step forward, extend your hand like youâve never seen him before in your life.
âHi,â you say. âNice to meet you.â
You smile like itâs nothing. Like you donât know him. Like heâs just another name youâll forget by morning. Thereâs the barest pause before he sets the glass down and shakes your hand. âYeah,â he says, guarded, eyes flicking to Wooyoung. âYou too.â
Before you can say anything, Wooyoung steps forward smoothly, hand outstretched, âHi,â he says, voice warm and a little too cheerful. âIâm Wooyoung. Her boyfriend.â
Thereâs a pause. One breath too long. Your ex shifts, not quite hiding the way his eyes flick to your still-joined hands.
ââŚRight,â he says finally, taking Wooyoungâs hand. âNice to meet you.â
Hana, being the overly-excited host that she is, smiles at the situation. âEveryoneâs in the kitchen. Come on, weâre just doing drinks and snacks before dinner.â
You glance toward the kitchen, grateful for the distraction, but not before you feel Wooyoungâs hand press gently against your lower back, guiding you forward.
As if to say: Iâve got you.
But alsoâŚ
Watch me work.
The house is warm and golden-lit, filled with soft music and the quiet sounds of people mingling. Laughter drifts from the back, layered over the clink of glasses and the sizzle of something on the stove.
The kitchen is full, couples leaning against counters, clustered near the island, perched on stools. Everyone looks up when you enter, and Hana claps her hands once. âEveryone, this is Y/N and her boyfriend, Wooyoung.â
You swear the word echoes for a second. Boyfriend.
Wooyoung just nods with a relaxed smile, greeting the group like heâs done this a hundred times. Heâs introduced to a few of the guys first, and within a minute heâs already laughing at something, fully immersed in conversation.
You hang back, trying not to fidget, trying to ignore how good he looks tonight, sleeves rolled, watch glinting, hair pushed back perfectly like he didnât even try. And then, as if on cue, Hana pipes up from across the room, tossing the words over her shoulder like theyâre harmless.
âI still canât believe Y/Nâs in a relationship now,â she says brightly, like itâs a funny little update. âI didnât believe it at first, Y/N in a relationship? We all thought she was allergic to commitment!â
Thereâs a few laughs, light, not cruel. The kind of laugh that happens when people think theyâre in on something. The moment the words leave Hanaâs mouth, your ex looks up. His expression flickers with a hint of surprise.
You open your mouth, unsure what to say. But before you can speak, Wooyoung cuts in. He doesnât raise his voice, doesnât even look particularly bothered. He just glances over at Hana with an easy, almost lazy kind of smile.
âIf loving her is a commitment, then itâs the easiest type of commitment Iâve ever made.â
You blink.
Your ex doesnât say anything. His lips press into a tight line, but his eyes narrow further, jaw clenching slightly as he watches Wooyoung.
But Wooyoungâs gaze never shifts away from you, his hand finding yours again, linking your fingers effortlessly. His smile is small, but thereâs a touch of pride behind it. Heâs enjoying this.
The women smile. A couple guys glance over like damn. And Hana? She laughs, charmed. âWow, okay. Youâre already winning points.â
You try to smile like your heart didnât just skip an entire beat.
Hana insists on giving you and Wooyoung a quick tour before dinner. âItâs not huge,â she says, with a laugh thatâs anything but modest. âWe just really wanted something simple but tasteful. Natural light was a must. You know how it is.â
Wooyoung nods beside you like he deeply, deeply understands the weight of natural light, and you catch the subtle twitch at the corner of his mouth.
âAnd this-â Hana gestures grandly as she opens a set of double doors. âThis is my favorite room. The light in here at golden hour? Unreal. We had the cushions custom made to match the ceiling beams. And the books are mostly for decoration, but it kind of gives the right mood, donât you think?â
You nod along politely, half-listening, while Wooyoung leans down slightly, his voice warm and low against your ear.
âDo you think if I mention natural light three more times, we unlock a secret level of the tour?â
Your breath hitches with a soft laugh, and before you can stop yourself, you tilt your head slightly toward him, shoulder brushing his chest. His smile lingers like heâs proud of himself, but thereâs something else behind it too, something quieter. The way your face lights up when you laugh, how you donât pull away. It flickers in his chest and sits there, unexpected.
His hand lingers a little longer at the small of your back as you follow Hana to the next room.
The dinner table is lively, plates are passed around, and glasses are filled as casual conversation flows. Across the table, your ex is quiet. He hasnât said much all night, just observed. His smile is polite, his presence steady, but you can feel his gaze on you every now and then, especially when Wooyoung leans in to refill your glass or casually touches your wrist while talking.
The group is in a comfortable rhythm, and just as you're about to take a bite of your food, one of the guests leans back in their chair with a curious smile.
âSo how did you two meet each other?â
You freeze, your mind racing. And across from you, you swear you see your ex stiffen slightly, eyes narrowing just the tiniest bit.
Wooyoung notices immediately.
He smiles at you, that teasing, mischievous look in his eyes as he leans forward, taking the cue. He opens his mouth, and suddenly, his voice fills the room. Smooth, charming, and effortlessly natural.
"Oh, this oneâs my favorite story," he says, his voice warm and playful, his eyes lighting up as if he's about to tell the most incredible tale.
He pauses for dramatic effect, glancing at you, making sure youâre paying attention. You give him a quick nod, still unsure of where heâs going with this.
âIt was one of those nights youâre not even supposed to go out, you know? I almost canceled.â He lets out a soft laugh, glancing at you. âBut then she walked in.â
Everyone leans in slightly, curious.
âShe wasnât supposed to be there either, actually. Our friend had to convince her. She was tired, had a long week,â He looks at you briefly, as if asking permission with his eyes, but his smile says he already knows youâll let him go on.
âShe came in late, a little out of breath, tucking her hair behind her ear, apologizing even though no one noticed. And I swear-â He leans back, that crooked smile tugging at the corner of his mouth. â-the second I saw her, I forgot what I was saying mid-sentence. Just totally lost it. My friend thought I was choking on my drink.â
Soft laughter bubbles around the table. Your cheeks warm.
âShe sat right across from me, and I swear I didnât hear a single thing anyone else said the whole night. I spent the night trying to make her laugh.â
Itâs smooth, too smooth, but his tone is light, playful, like heâs just telling a fond memory, not spinning an elaborate lie. He continues, eyes sparkling.
âI asked for her number before we left, and she said no.â
A small gasp comes from someone at the table, and Wooyoung grins like heâs telling a bedtime story.
âShe said I seemed like the kind of guy who flirts with everyone.â More laughter. Wooyoung presses a hand to his chest in mock offense. âWhich-, okay, fair. But I wasn't flirting with her⌠or maybe I was, but I just wanted to keep talking to her. So I said, âIf she doesnât want to give it to me, fine, Iâll earn it.â And I kept showing up whenever our friend invited people out. I'd always make sure to sit next to her. Always brought something small. Coffee, gum, dumb stuff, just to have an excuse to talk.â
He looks at you then. Really looks at you.
âAnd eventually⌠she let me walk her home.â
Someone lets out a little aww.
âI didnât try anything,â he adds. âI just wanted to stretch out the moment as long as I could. I think we stood outside her door for half an hour just talking. I memorized the color of her front light. The chipped tile on her step. Her laugh.â
The table is completely silent.
âAnd the next time?â His smile curves wider. âShe kissed me first. Which I will never let her forget.â
The table is enchanted.
For a moment after Wooyoung finishes, thereâs a soft, stunned silence, like everyoneâs holding their breath without realizing it. Then:
âOh my God,â someone breathes.
The woman across from you nudges her partner. âYou never chased me like that.â
âYou didnât run,â he deadpans.
âSo youâre telling me you saw her once and just knew?â another friend adds, reaching for more wine.
âI told our mutual friend to introduce us, and he said âdonât bother.ââ He stretches his arm along the back of your chair, fingers lightly brushing the bare skin of your shoulder. âSo obviously I did the exact opposite.â
The table erupts with laughter. Real, full, warm.
âGod, that sounds so like you,â Hana laughs, sending you a playful glance.
Laughter bubbles around the table, easy and entertained.
But not from everyone.
Across the table, your exâs grip on his fork tightens, just for a moment. Not dramatic, not enough to draw attention from anyone else, but you see it. The twitch in his jaw. The way he shifts back in his chair like he needs space to breathe.
Wooyoung leans in slightly, hand still resting lightly behind your neck now, fingers brushing just enough to make it look natural. Intimate.
âAnd when she finally said yes,â he adds, voice lower now, more deliberate, âI knew I wasnât gonna let her go.â
Your chest tightens.
The air feels heavier.
Meanwhile, youâre frozen in place, staring at your wine glass, heart racing as if you lived every second of that made-up story. You catch someone across the table watching you with a knowing smile, clearly convinced you're the luckiest girl alive.
And for a second, just one, you almost believe it too.
The rest of the dinner unfolds like a well-rehearsed play. Light laughter, wine refills, soft clinks of cutlery against porcelain. Conversation drifts easily between the couples, like theyâve all known each other forever, even if some only met tonight. And somehow, you and Wooyoung fall into it without trying.
After the dinner, the buzz of conversation in the living room fades as you step quietly down the hallway toward the bathroom. You need a second to breathe, just a minute alone after everything thatâs happened tonight.
You close the bathroom door behind you and lean against it for a moment, letting out a breath you didnât realize you were holding. Wooyoungâs charming story about how you met still lingers in your mind, and the way everyone seemed so enchanted by him... it felt like something out of a movie. It had been easy to get swept up in it all, even though it was completely fabricated.
After a few moments, you open the bathroom door and nearly jump out of your skin.
Wooyoung is standing right there in the hallway, hands in his pockets like heâs just been casually waiting. His gaze flicks up to meet yours immediately, and a slow, knowing smile pulls at his lips.
He doesnât say anything right away, just leans his shoulder against the doorframe, arms now crossed, like heâs settling in.
You swallow hard. âYou scared me.â
âDid I?â His voice is low, soft. Like a secret passed between friends. âSorry. You just disappeared.â
âI needed a second. Too many couples,â you say, attempting a light laugh that comes out a bit thin. âToo much⌠love.â
âSo?â he murmurs beside you. âHow am I doing?â
You glance at him, eyebrows raised.
âThe fake boyfriend thing,â he adds with a sly grin. âConvincing enough for you?â
You shrug, but your smile gives you away. âIâve seen worse performances.â
âCold,â he mutters, holding a hand over his chest like youâve wounded him. âHere I am, carrying the entire romance on my back.â
You laugh quietly, then shake your head, your voice dropping again. âHonestly, I think everyone at the table wants to date you now.â
âJealous?â he says, all teeth and sparkle, but his voice is soft, teasing rather than cocky.
You roll your eyes, even as your stomach flips. âPlease.â
Then he tilts his head, studying you. His tone shifts, still playful, but quieter. âYou know, youâre still a little pink.â
You blink. âWhat?â
âYour cheeks,â he says, nodding toward them. âBlushing. Again.â
You cross your arms instinctively, heart picking up pace. âIâm not.â
âYou are,â he whispers. He leans a little closer. âItâs kinda cute.â
Your breath catches.
âYouâre insufferable,â you whisper, smiling despite yourself.
âAnd youâre adorable when youâre flustered.â
The moment hangs, just a little too long. Youâre standing in the dim hallway, lights soft, voices muffled behind walls, and heâs looking at you like this is his favorite part of the night.
You clear your throat, trying to reset something in the air. âWe should go back.â
âYeah,â he says, straightening slowly. âBefore someone thinks weâre sneaking off to make out.â
Wooyoung straightens just a little, the moment sliding away like water off skin. He gives you one last glance, a wink for good measure, then turns and walks toward the others. That leaves you standing in the hallway, heart racing, wondering why his lazy confidence always makes it hard to tell when heâs joking and when he isnât.
You follow behind, still feeling the blush he called out.
You offer to help Hana out in the kitchen. Wooyoung is busy winning everybodyâs hearts with his charm, so you arenât concerned about him.
You rinse off a plate, hands moving on autopilot as you stack it neatly on the drying rack. Hana leans against the counter beside you, sipping the last of her wine, her smile still painted on from dinner. âSeriously though,â she says, nudging your hip with hers, âI wasnât expecting you to show up with someone like that.â
You huff a laugh. âLike what?â
âLike⌠funny. Hot. Charismatic. The way he talks about you?â She raises a brow. âUnreal.â
You smile, tight-lipped. âYeah. Heâs something.â
âI meanâŚâ She grins. âYou glow around him. Itâs wild. Like, he looks at you like heâs already picking out your wedding venue.â
You laugh, quiet, awkward. âHeâs just⌠sweet.â
Hana raises her brows. âHeâs obsessed. In a good way.â She tilts her head toward the hallway. âIâm gonna go grab the wine opener. Donât let me forget it again. Be back in a sec.â
The back door clicks shut behind her, and silence settles again. Itâs nice for a moment, just you, the clink of cutlery, the steam from the sink. You keep washing dishes, grateful for the moment alone.
But it doesnât last.
You hear movement behind you. Slow. Hesitant.
You turn your head and freeze.
Itâs him.
Your ex.
He stands just past the threshold, hands in his pockets, gaze locked on you. He steps in without saying anything at first. Just lingers a little too close to the kitchen island, his eyes scanning your face like heâs trying to figure out what heâs seeing.
âI didnât think youâd come,â he says.
You dry your hands on a towel, steadying yourself. âClearly.â
He takes a step in. Not too close, but enough to unsettle you.
His eyes flick around the room, then land back on you. âYou look good.â
You sigh quietly, turning back to the sink. âDonât do that.â
âIâm just saying.â
Another beat.
You hear him shift again, leaning slightly against the island behind you. You can feel his eyes on your back.
âThat guy,â he says finally. âThe one who came with you. Wooyoung.â
You donât look at him. âWhat about him?â
He hesitates. Then, carefully: âAre you two⌠serious?â
You pause, then shrug. âThatâs none of your business.â
He lets out a low breath. âSo thatâs a yes.â
You turn slowly, facing him now. âWhy are you here, really?â
âIn my own house?â
âNo,â you say. âWhy are you in this kitchen, right now?â
He stares at you. Silent.
âI fucked up,â he blurts, âOkay? I know I did. Iâve been thinking about it since-â
âDonât,â you snap, but still keeping your voice down so the rest of the party won't hear. âYou donât get to come here, pretend weâre still something, and then act surprised that I moved on. Youâre married.â
His mouth opens, then closes. He looks at you like youâve just hit him.
âYou moved on?â he repeats, like the words are bitter on his tongue. âWith him?â
You step back. âYou donât know him.â
He scoffs. âI might not, but I can still see how insufferable he is.â
You stare at him, lips parted in disbelief. âJealousy doesnât look good on you.â
He takes another step forward, eyes sharper now. âI just donât get it. After everything-â
âNo,â you say firmly, holding your hand up. âYou donât get anything. You lost the right to have an opinion the second you slept with someone else.â
Thereâs a beat of silence. Your heart pounds in your ears.
And thenâŚ
âEverything okay in here?â Wooyoungâs voice is cold. Threatening almost.
You donât need to look. You feel it, the air shifting, the way the atmosphere bends around his presence. But you still turn your head. And it steadies you instantly.
Heâs leaning in the doorway. One hand tucked into the pocket of his slacks, the other hanging loose at his side. His posture is relaxed. His expression? Somewhere between nonchalance and interest.
But his eyes?
Theyâre fixed on your ex.
And they could kill.
Your ex straightens, caught off guard. âUh-, yeah. We were just-â
Wooyoung steps fully into the room like heâs walking through water, unconcerned by the tension thatâs thick enough to drown in. He nods once, a polite gesture with razor edges, then glances at you.
His voice lowers. Smooth, velvety. Unmistakably his.
âYou okay, baby?â
The pet name slips out effortlessly. Like it belongs there. Like you belong to him. Then he closes the space between you and him, his hand brushing the small of your back with casual ownership.
Your breath stutters. âIâm fine.â
His gaze lingers on your ex, sharp enough to make the air hum.
âThen Iâll ask one more time,â he murmurs, voice dipped in steel, eyes locked on your ex. âIs there a problem?â
Your ex lets out a quiet scoff, trying to play it cool. âNo problem at all.â
Wooyoung breathes in once, slow.
âThen Iâll make this simple,â he says, softly now. Dangerous soft. âIf youâve got something to say, say it.â He tilts his head, the barest shift of muscle. His smile is slight, almost gentle, but it doesnât reach his eyes. âIf notâŚâ His jaw tightens just once. âWalk away before you make me repeat myself.â
Your ex doesnât speak again. Doesnât look at you. Just leaves.
And Wooyoung watches every step. Tracks him with the kind of gaze that doesnât flinch. It says everything he hasnât:
Try it again. I dare you.
When itâs just the two of you again, Wooyoungâs fingers trace your spine once, barely there. A silent check-in.
Then, slowly, his focus shifts. Back to you.
His voice drops. Low. Controlled.
âYou okay?â
You nod once, but itâs tight. Too tight. And he sees it.
His brows pinch just slightly. âDid he say something?â
âNo,â you whisper, and itâs true, mostly. âHe was just⌠being him.â
Wooyoung exhales slowly through his nose, jaw clenching. Like heâs trying not to say something that would ruin the whole night. But then he looks at you, really looks at you, and something in him softens. Just a little.
His hand slides from your back to your waist, anchoring you close. He studies your face for a moment, like heâs not fully convinced, but then he exhales and gives a small nod back.
âI didnât want to step in too early,â he says, voice soft now. âYou looked like you had it under control. You did.â
Thereâs something warm in your chest at that, that he trusted you to hold your own.
You meet his eyes.
Heâs not angry.
Heâs present.
âI know you donât need anyone to defend you,â he says, quieter now. âBut Iâm here. If you ever want me to.â
That part lingers. A gentle offering.
You smile faintly. âThanks.â
He leans just a little closer, his voice dipping like he doesnât want to be overheard, even by the walls, and something wicked flickers at the corner of his mouth. âGuess Iâll have to make it clearer youâre taken.â
Your heart skips a beat.
His hand gives your waist the faintest squeeze, not possessive, just sure. Then he straightens up, tone lighter, a glint in his eye as he teases, âYou ready to go back out there, or should we hide out in here a little longer?â
You smile. âLetâs go.â
Wooyoung laces his fingers with yours as you step out of the kitchen. He doesnât say much. Just keeps his hand on you, sometimes at your back, sometimes curled around your fingers, like he doesnât trust the room not to try and touch you.
The energy around him simmers low. Controlled. Patient.
But itâs there.
You feel it in the way his gaze lingers a little too long when you make eye contact The way his thumb brushes your skin when you pass your ex. Like a fuse waiting for flame.
The evening moves on. Laughter. Drinks. Music humming low in the background. But that energy never leaves him.
Then, after another drink, his palm slides against your waist as he leans in, murmuring just low enough for only you to hear. âCome outside with me for a sec?â
You glance up, surprised by the quiet invitation, but nod. âYeah. Okay."
He takes your hand and leads you through the back door, into the cool hush of the backyard. String lights sway gently above. A few scattered chairs dot the patio, mostly empty.
He pulls you just far enough into the yard that youâre framed under the golden light, a sight impossible to miss. Then he stops just enough to pull you in close, his hands resting firmly on your waist. His breath brushes your neck as he leans in, voice low and a little teasing.
âDo you trust me?â
You meet his gaze, smiling without hesitation, but a little confused. âOf course.â
But before you can say anything more, he leans in, no warning, no hesitation, and his mouth finds your neck.
Slow. Deliberate. Unapologetically possessive.
His grip on your waist tightens, firm and grounding, like he's anchoring himself to you, or maybe keeping you exactly where he wants you.
Your fingers twitch, aching to clutch at his shirt, his shoulders, anything. But he doesnât stop. His mouth keeps moving, tongue flicking, lips parting as he sucks softly at the spot just above your collarbone, lazy, indulgent, filthy in how intimate it feels.
You gasp, hips tilting forward instinctively, heat already pooling low and heavy in your belly. He doesnât miss it, he hums against your throat like he felt it happen.
Wooyoung pulls back just enough to murmur, voice thick and close to your ear, âYou werenât expecting that, huh?â
His tone is teasing, pleased, like he knows exactly what heâs doing to you. Then he leans back in, grazing your neck again, his nose brushing over the same spot he just kissed.
âFake boyfriend of the year, right?â he adds, a low smirk in his voice.
It pulls a laugh from you, too real, too soft, and he chuckles under his breath like he lives for the sound.
And then he looks up.
Over your shoulder.
Still smiling.
You donât turn. You donât even realize why his gaze has sharpened. But Wooyoung knows. Heâs known from the moment he stepped outside.
âOh, hey,â he says, just loud enough, like the thought only now occurred to him. âDidnât see you there.â
You blink, startled, then turn.
And there he is.
Your ex is sitting in the far corner of the backyard, posture stiff, one hand loosely holding a glass of something amber that heâs no longer drinking. Heâs been watching, long enough, clearly. His eyes flick from your face to where Wooyoungâs hand rests against your hip like it was made to be there. His mouth is drawn in a line so tight it might split.
Heâd been watching.
Wooyoung's arm wraps a little tighter around your waist. Not possessive. Not aggressive. Just⌠secure. Like he has every right to hold you like this. Like he dares anyone to question it.
âDidnât mean to interrupt,â Wooyoung says, cool and lazy.
Your ex stares, jaw tight.
Wooyoung doesnât wait. His posture is casual, but thereâs a glint in his eye that betrays him, too amused, too at-ease.
âNice night, isnât it?â he adds, like itâs nothing. âStars out. Music inside. My girl tastes like sangria. Hard to complain.â
You stiffen slightly, but Wooyoung doesnât flinch. Heâs still smiling faintly, watching you with that unbothered, pretty-boy charm that somehow makes everything worse.
Your ex lifts his drink and mutters, âSome of us came out here to be alone.â
Wooyoung cocks his head. âOh, totally fair. Shouldâve said something.â
Thereâs a beat of silence, sharp enough to cut through. But he doesnât move. He stays planted right there beside you, hand still snug on your waist like it belongs there.
Then he blinks, as if struck by a thought.
âOh-, wait,â he says, voice still sweet. âYou want us back inside?â He huffs a quiet laugh, almost apologetic. âDamn. Thatâs on me.â
Your ex sets his glass down with a soft clink on the stone railing. âYou always this annoying?â
Wooyoung grins. âOnly when Iâm in a good mood.â
âY/N! Wooyoung!â
Hana bursts out, loud and glowing, wine glass in one hand, joy practically spilling out of her. Her eyes land on you both and she lights up like the fourth of July.
âOh my God, there you are!â she grins. âI was about to come get you, everyone keeps asking where the hot couple went!â
You see your ex stiffen. Wooyoungâs smile stretches.
âHot couple,â he echoes, biting back a laugh.
Hana gasps dramatically. âDonât act shy now! You two are disgusting. I love it.â
âI'm not mad about it. Sheâs got great taste,â Wooyoung teases with a little shrug, for a second glancing over at your ex. âEventually.â
Your exâs jaw tightens. He looks like he might speak.
But Wooyoung leans in one last time, whispering low into your ear, voice soft enough to make your skin spark:
"Success, baby"
He smirks before sliding his hand into yours, pulling you gently toward the house where Hana is waiting, oblivious to the tension left behind.
The night has mellowed. The lights are dim, the wine is flowing, and laughter has started to echo easier around the table. Someoneâs passed around dessert, tiramisu in glass jars, and Wooyoungâs excused himself to the bathroom with that lazy, effortless vibe only he can pull off without trying. Youâd felt his hand brush your shoulder as he left, and it still lingers there somehow, phantom-warm.
Hanaâs had just enough wine to get bold. She sits across from you, grinning over the rim of her glass.
âOkay,â she says, loudly enough to cut across the overlapping chatter. âNew question for the couples.â
The table quiets, interest piqued.
Her eyes land on you like a spotlight. âWhatâs your favorite physical thing about your partner?â
A few groans. Someone throws a napkin in her direction.
âDonât roll your eyes,â she warns, laughing. âAnd no safe answers either. I donât want to hear about how they âhave a nice smileâ or âbeautiful eyesâ, everyone says that. I want the thing. The detail. The part of them that does it for you when youâre not even trying to look. The one that makes your brain short-circuit a little.â
You laugh, swallowing a little too quickly. The wine burns, and suddenly the air feels too warm.
âIâll go last,â Hana says, clearly loving this. âY/N, go.â
You freeze. âMe?â
âYes, you.â Her smile is practically villainous. âHeâs not even here. You can be honest.â
Everyone chuckles. The pressure thickens.
You hesitate, lips parting, unsure. Your eyes flick toward the hallway where Wooyoung disappeared. As if he might walk in just in time to save you.
But he doesnât.
You clear your throat and say, maybe a little too honestly, âHis hands.â
âOoh,â someone says. âThatâs a good one.â
You glance down at the table, fingers curling around your wine glass. âTheyâre just⌠nice,â you say, not looking up. âHe moves them a lot when he talks. And theyâre always doing something. Tapping, pulling at a sleeve, playing with his rings or-, whatever. Just always⌠moving.â
Your voice quiets as the room listens. You feel exposed, like you said something too intimate.
You donât realize the room has fallen silent. Until it hits you that no oneâs said anything back.
And then...
âI should leave more often if this is what I get to come back to.â
And Wooyoung is standing just behind you, leaning lazily against the doorway, arms crossed, one brow raised in interest.
Your breath halts.
Thereâs laughter again around the table, but your throat goes dry. Hanaâs grinning at the perfect timing. âThere he is,â she says, wiggling her brows. âRight on cue. Weâre playing favorites.â
Wooyoung raises a brow. âFavorites?â
âFavorite physical thing about each other,â she explains, eyes sparkling. âAnd no cop-outs like smile or eyes. Weâre talking the thing. The detail that ruins you. Your turnâ
He chuckles under his breath, clearly amused. He doesnât hesitate.
âHer neck.â
A beat of silence. His voice is smooth but deliberate, like the words were waiting in his mouth.
You feel your body go still.
Then he moves, slowly, stepping closer behind your chair, his hand brushing your shoulder as he comes to a stop. Youâre suddenly very aware of how exposed your skin is where your top dips to your collarbone, of how warm the air feels even though he hasnât touched you.
âSheâs got this curve,â he says, quieter now, like heâs letting everyone else fade out. âRight here," His fingers trace the slope where your neck meets your shoulder, so lightly it barely counts as a touch. âRight where her hair rests.â
Then his tone shifts, warmer, quieter. Real.
âIn the mornings,â he says, like heâs letting the rest of the room fall away, âwhen sheâs still half-asleep and pulls her hair up without thinking. Stretching, yawning, no makeup, nothing, this partâs just exposed. The light hits it, and I swear to God-â He cuts himself off with a low exhale, shaking his head with a crooked smile. âIt makes it really hard to be on time for anything.â
The silence that follows is a different kind of hush. Not teasing. Not performative.
Itâs weighted. Personal.
Like maybe, just maybe, he wasnât making any of that up. You donât even realize youâre holding your breath until he pulls back, barely.
âPlus,â he adds, a lazy grin playing on his lips, âitâs really unfair that you smell the way you do.â
âOkay, damn,â someone says from across the table, but you canât even register who.
Wooyoung finally moves, slipping back into the seat beside you. But he doesnât lean back, doesnât settle into comfort like before. He sits just a little closer than he needs to. His thigh brushes yours. Warm. Steady. You donât move.
The game rolls on, Hana gesturing to the couple across from you with a flourish, their answer met with giggles and teasing. But the background fades, soft, foggy, because you feel it. The weight of Wooyoungâs stare.
When you finally turn your head, you find him already watching you.
And everything in his face is different.
Gone is the cocky smile, the playful glint in his eye. Heâs quiet now. Studying you, like heâs not sure where the line is anymore. Like maybe he doesnât want to know.
And then, another gaze.
You catch it from the corner of your eye: your ex, sitting stiff at the far end of the table, his expression unreadable. Heâs watching Wooyoung like a hawk, jaw tight, mouth set in a firm line.
Wooyoung senses it. You can feel the shift in him, the small breath he takes. The flicker of heat in his chest, like he might respond, say something, smirk just to provoke.
But he doesnât.
Because itâs not about him anymore.
After a few more rounds of the game, you step into the hallway and let your back hit the wall with a quiet sigh. The noise from the living room still hums faintly behind you, laughter, the clink of glasses, someone shuffling a deck of cards. Itâs warm in there, but your skin feels too tight. You just need a minute.
You close your eyes.
Footsteps approach, soft, familiar.
Wooyoung slips into the hallway like heâs done it a hundred times, like he always knows when you need the space. He falls in beside you, close but not crowding, his shoulder hovering just shy of yours as he leans against the wall.
âYou always vanish when it gets too loud,â he says, his voice low.
You keep your eyes forward, a faint smile tugging at your lips. âI donât vanish. I relocate.â
He hums. âRight. Into hallways. Or kitchen corners. Or that one time it was behind the couch.â
âThat was one time.â
âIt was still dramatic,â he teases, nudging your arm lightly. Your breath catches, just a little. Itâs playful. Itâs Wooyoung. But something about the way he talks makes your stomach flip.
âYou look really pretty tonight.â
The words land like a spark, and your breath catches before you can help it. You blink up at him, startled.
âI-, what?â
He grins, slow and lopsided. âJust saying. I donât think I told you earlier.â
You feel your face flush, warmth blooming across your cheeks, down your neck. You look away instantly, trying to mask it with a half-laugh.
âIâm honest,â he counters, still looking at you. You can feel it, the weight of his gaze, the way it lingers. âI mean, you always look good, but tonightâŚâ His voice dips, softer now. âItâs kind of unfair.â
You glance away, suddenly hyperaware of how close heâs standing. âYou canât just say things like that.â
âWhy not?â he asks, leaning just slightly toward you. âIs it that hard to believe? Do I need to be faking a relationship for you to believe it?â
You donât answer. Youâre not sure you can. Your heartâs already too loud in your ears.
He nudges your arm gently. âYou know, for someone who lives with me, youâre really bad at accepting compliments.â
You try to play it off. âMaybe you just give too many.â
âMm,â he muses. âOr maybe youâre just really easy to compliment.â
You let out a breathy sound somewhere between a scoff and a laugh, tucking your chin down in embarrassment. âCan you not?â
You finally glance at him, and heâs already watching you with that infuriatingly unreadable look, somewhere between playful and serious. Like heâs holding back.
He doesnât say anything else for a second. He just looks at you.
And somehow, that says more than the rest.
You try not to smile. You fail.
Wooyoung pushes himself off the wall with a lazy stretch, then turns his body to face you, effectively placing his back toward the living room.
âCome back in when youâre ready,â he says softly, his voice carrying that usual teasing warmth. âYou donât have to rush. But Iâll be on my seat, being distractingly attractive⌠in case that helps.â
You almost laugh, but then your eyes drift past him.
Your stomach dips.
Your ex is standing just inside the living room, half-shadowed but unmistakably watching. His expression is unreadable, his eyes sharp and fixed directly on you.
âWait,â you breathe, reaching out without thinking.
You grab Wooyoungâs shirt and pull him a little closer. He stumbles forward a step, surprised but not resisting. His brows furrow slightly in confusion as he looks down at you.
âDo you trust me?â you ask now, your voice quieter now. Thereâs a tremor in it, not fear, but urgency. Purpose.
Wooyoungâs expression shifts, softening. âYes,â he says, instantly. âOf course.â
Thatâs all you need.
Your hands move quickly, one sliding up to the back of his neck, the other gripping the front of his shirt. You rise onto your toes and kiss him. Firm and deliberate. Lips meeting his in a way that leaves no room for questions. His mouth parts slightly in surprise, but he doesnât pull away. If anything, he leans in.
When you break the kiss just slightly, you donât step back. You stay close, close enough that your lips graze his as you whisper, âHeâs watchi-,â
You donât get to finish. Wooyoungâs lips are on yours again before you even register, like they need to be. Like he doesnât care about why you kissed him, or for who, but because he canât stop now that youâve let it happen.
This time itâs deeper. Hungrier.
You canât help but deepen the kiss when he slides his tongue slightly into your mouth, and one of his hands slips down to your lower back, guiding you closer. The other lifts to your jaw, gentle but sure. l
You feel your back press lightly into the wall behind you as he moves with you, not rough, but insistent. The kind of kiss that drowns everything else out, conversation, footsteps, your exâs presence across the room.
His lips part yours, his breath hot and heavy against your cheek between kisses. His grip tightens at your waist, grounding you. You respond instinctively, hands curling into his shirt, lips moving with his, matching every shift and tilt of his head.
Itâs a performance. Thatâs how it started.
But it doesnât feel like one anymore.
It feels like heat, like want, like a spark that caught fire the second you gave it permission. And heâs kissing you like heâs not planning to stop anytime soon.
And for just a second, you let yourself melt into it. Into him.
But then⌠it passes.
The air changes again.
You blink and glance over to the living room. Your ex is gone. Vanished back into the room. Wooyoung slows, then stops. His hands remain on you, his breath still a little uneven.
You pull back first, just enough to look at him.
His eyes are already on you. Thereâs something different there now, an emotion you havenât seen from him before. Not just playfulness, not just comfort. Something heavier. Hungrier.
You force a small, awkward smile and drop your hands from his neck, stepping back just slightly. âOkay,â you say, clearing your throat. âI think that worked.â
Wooyoung doesnât say anything for a second. He just studies you like heâs seeing you clearly for the first time. Then he nods, slow and unreadable, and finally, he smiles. But itâs not quite the same. Something about it is quieter. Almost reverent.
At the end of the night, shoes shuffle at the door. Coats rustle. The air is heavy with the kind of tired that follows too much wine and too much pretending.
âGet home safe, okay?â Hana says warmly, stepping toward you both as youâre about to leave. Her smile is soft, a little teasing. âYou two are seriously adorable. Like⌠sickening. I love it.â
You laugh, a bit breathlessly, already halfway into your coat. But before you can say anything, Wooyoungâs arm snakes naturally around your waist, casual, confident. You feel his fingers press into your side, warm through the fabric.
âThanks, Hana,â he says, flashing her a grin. âShe keeps me in line.â
You roll your eyes and glance up at him, but the smile tugging at your lips is real, too real. âBarely,â you murmur, playing along.
His eyes flick to yours for a second. Just long enough to make your stomach twist.
Hana grins and gives you both a quick hug before stepping back into the house. âBye, lovebirds.â
The door closes behind you.
The air outside bites cold against your skin.
And just like that, his arm drops from your waist. The performance ends.
Neither of you says a word as you walk to the curb. You donât know if itâs the silence or the absence of his touch that makes the air feel heavier now, but itâs different.
The cab pulls up with a soft screech. He opens the door for you like always, waits for you to slide in, then follows without a word. The car is warm, too warm, and too quiet.
You're both staring straight ahead.
The streetlights flicker past, painting gold across his face. In the confined space, the silence between you buzzes, thick with something unspoken, something ignited hours ago that neither of you has dared to acknowledge.
The apartment door clicks shut behind you with a softness that feels far too loud in the quiet.
Coats are hung. Shoes are kicked off. The scent of his usual candle lingers in the air, citrus and something darker underneath. Normally comforting. Now it just makes your heart beat faster.
Wooyoung heads to the kitchen without a word. His shoulders are relaxed, but thereâs something taut underneath it all. You hesitate in the hallway, watching him open the cabinet, sleeves pushed to his elbows, veins still prominent down his forearms from earlier, and you hate how you notice.
You drift into the kitchen slowly, lingering by the edge of the counter.
âSo,â you offer, light and a little too bright, âthat was fun, right? Peak acting performance. Someone give us Oscars.â
No answer. He fills the glass with water from the tap, moves with that same quiet ease, but doesnât glance at you once.
You try again, a bit more playful. âThink we fooled them? I mean, your story about how we met really sold it. Ten out of ten commitment.â
He finally looks at you, just looks. And itâs a look that completely steals the breath from your chest. Calm, dark, unreadable. His eyes are locked on yours like he's waiting for you to crack first. And suddenly you're hyperaware of everything. How hot your cheeks feel, how your voice might've sounded too eager, how the silence seems to wrap around your body like a second skin.
You clear yours softly. âAnyway. Um. Iâm gonna-, I think Iâm just gonna head to bed.â
Still nothing from him.
You nod quickly. âNight.â
You turn, heart hammering now, and youâve only made it a step or two down the hall when his voice floats to you, quiet, even.
âIf you ever need a fake boyfriend againâŚâ
You stop. Your fingers twitch at your side.
ââŚyou know where to find me.â
You turn back toward him slowly. Heâs still in the kitchen, leaning back against the counter, glass in hand, eyes unreadable, but fixed on you like heâs daring you to say something. To ask him what he means. To call him out.
You donât.
You meet his gaze, and itâs only for a second, but something heavy passes between you, something weighty and unspoken that neither of you wants to name.
Then you nod.
Not a joking nod. Not one meant to brush things off. Just⌠quiet acknowledgement. You walk off with your heartbeat pounding in your ears, like your body knows something your mind hasnât caught up with. You donât look back, but you feel his eyes on you the whole way down the hall.
The door clicks softly shut behind you.
And for a long time, you just stand there in the silence of your room, pulse racing, breath held, trying to figure out what exactly that was.
You donât even remember walking to your vanity. Youâve just been standing here, fingers curled loosely along the edge, eyes locked on your reflection like it might give you answers. But all it gives you is the echo of him. His words. His gaze. His lips on yours. The way your body reacted like it knew something you didnât.
Thereâs a knock.
A soft one.
You straighten up fast, like youâre guilty of something. âCome in.â
The door creaks open behind you.
You meet his gaze through the mirror as he strolls in, easy and casual, like itâs the most natural thing in the world for him to be here, in your space, late at night.
He doesnât say anything right away. Just leans against the doorframe, arms crossed, watching you.
You manage a breath. âNot tired?â
His shoulders lift in the faintest shrug. âNot really.â
Then silence again.
But itâs not awkward, itâs thick. Charged.
âI was thinking about something,â he finally says, his voice smooth, a little playful.
You glance at him in the mirror, trying not to let your pulse jump. âYeah? About what?â
Wooyoung pushes off the frame, making his way toward you at an unhurried pace. âYouâre better at this whole fake relationship thing than you give yourself credit for.â
You attempt a shrug. âJust playing along.â
A soft laugh leaves him. âMm. Sure.â
He walks further into the room. Not quickly. Not even directly toward you. He slows as he passes by your bed, eyes roaming lazily over the space like heâs trying to memorize it. But you know thatâs not what this is.
Heâs letting the silence stretch.
Heâs letting you squirm.
You glance at him through the mirror, just as he finally makes his way behind you.
You donât move.
You canât.
He stops right behind you, not touching, but close. You keep your eyes locked on the mirror, but itâs no use. Heâs everywhere now. In your space. In your breath.
���And the things you said tonight,â he says, voice soft but pointed. âThose were part of the act too?â
You try to keep your tone even. âWhat things?â
He tilts his head. âThe part where you said you like my hands. That you stare at them when Iâm not looking.â
You freeze just slightly.
"I-, uhm... I dont-..." You glance down instinctively, suddenly very aware of your own hands fidgeting.
âFunny,â he says softly, âYou think I havenât noticed? When Iâm cooking. When Iâm fixing something around the apartment. You always get quiet.â
His hand lifts, fingertips brushing your hair gently off your shoulder. You shiver as he lowers his voice again.
âI meant what I said, by the way,â he says. âI do love your neck.â
You donât answer, but he doesnât need you to.
âIn the mornings,â he murmurs. âWhen youâre in the kitchen, still half asleep, standing by the window. Your head tilts just a little. That soft little spot here,â he gestures near your collarbone, but still doesnât touch. âbarely covered.â
Youâre not breathing properly now.
âAnd I try,â he continues, âI really try to keep it together, but you standing there like thatâŚ? That does something to me.â
You let out a slow, shaky breath, shoulders dropping ever so slightly.
His fingers trail lightly along the back of your neck, not quite touching skin yet, but enough to make you lean into it. He steps in fully now, his hands finding your waist, and you instinctively lean back into him.
And then, finally, his mouth brushes your neck. Gentle. Slow. A teasing press that turns into something deeper. You feel the smile against your skin as he kisses again, and again, lower this time, until your knees threaten to give.
You gasp, just a little, and he smiles against your throat.
âYou know,â he starts, voice casual, âif this wasnât fakeâŚâ
Your breath hitches.
ââŚI wouldâve done a lot of things differently tonight.â
You swallow hard. âLike what?â
He trails one finger along your side, feather-light, just enough to make you squirm.
âIf this wasnât fakeâŚâ he begins, like itâs casual, like heâs not setting you on fire, âI wouldnât have let you leave my side once tonight. I wouldâve had my hand on you the whole dinner, your thigh, your back, the curve of your hip, just to remind you who you belong to.â
Your stomach tightens.
He brushes his fingers lightly along your sides, not quite ticklish, just maddeningly slow.
âIâd bring you home,â he continues, lips nearly brushing the shell of your ear, âtake your hand, lead you to your room like Iâve been waiting to all night. And I wouldnât rush it. No pretending, no performance. Just you. Me. And the dress Iâve been dying to take off you.â
He trails his knuckles lightly down your side, slow and reverent.
âIâd unzip it real slowâŚâ
You hear the faintest shift of fabric.
âLet it slip off your shoulders while I kissed right hereâŚâ he presses a single, feather-light kiss to the side of your neck, âand hereâŚâ another just below your ear, âuntil you were shivering.â
Your eyes flutter closed, and he watches your reflection like heâs memorizing the moment.
âDo you want me to stop?â he whispers just below your ear.
Youâre at a loss for words but youâre hungry for more. You shake your head as you swallow, but realise how dry your mouth is. His hands slide up your sides, warm, sure, with a smile on his face.
âIf it hadn't been fake, Iâd press you against this vanity,â he goes on, lips brushing the shell of your ear. âMake you watch as I touched every inch of your skin.â
You canât look away from the mirror, from the image of his hands exploring you, slow and confident, like heâs known this body forever.
âIâd hold your hips right here.â His hands grip you firmly, positioning your body with ease. âAnd Iâd make sure the only thing you remembered from tonight was how I made you feel.â
"Yeah?" you manage to say, too invested in everything he's saying.
âIf this wasnât fakeâŚâ he murmurs, his hands still on you, tracing the curve of your body as if he owns it. âIâd make you see stars. Iâd fuck you right here, make you forget you were ever pretending.â
You let out a light gasp, feeling your heart in your throat.
He presses against you, his hand finding its way to your neck, just enough to make you tilt your head back, exposing more of that sensitive skin. He breathes softly against it.
âYouâd be mine. Iâd make sure you knew it, every fucking inch of you.â
Youâre a breath away from crumbling, your chest rising and falling in rapid succession as you realize how much you want him, how easily youâre giving into the fantasy.
His lips are still close to your ear, breath warm, voice impossibly soft.
âBut then againâŚâ he murmurs, the barest smile in his tone, âthis is all fake⌠isnât it?â
You stiffen.
He lets out a low chuckle, his nose skimming the line of your jaw as he continues, casually cruel in the way only he can be. âNone of this would actually happen. I mean, why would it?â
"Why not?" you barely let out a whisper.
His fingers drag slowly down your sides, feather-light, torturously teasing. Heâs pretending to think, pretending to be thoughtful, but he knows exactly what heâs doing. âYou and me, coming home after a night like that, all dressed up, all tense and wired⌠and me justâŚâ His hand glides over your hips. âPeeling you out of this dress and fucking you over your vanity?â
He hums, tilting his head. âSeems a little far-fetched, donât you think?â
You inhale sharply, your body practically trembling from restraint.
He leans in again, lips just at your neck now. âYou havenât said much,â he whispers, his hand brushing lower, just enough to make you flinch. âShould I stop?â His fingers press gently into your thighs now, possessive even in their softness. âBecause weâre faking it, right?â He lets out a slow, amused breath. âAnd Iâd hate to make things confusing.â
You swallow hard, your mouth dry, your skin flushed everywhere.
âUnless you want me to keep going,â he murmurs, eyes locking with yours in the reflection, darker now, heavy with intent. âBut youâd have to say it, sweetheart.â
His fingers trail between your legs, light as a threat.
You grip the edge of the vanity with white knuckles, heart pounding in your throat. âWooyoungâŚâ
His hand slides up, over your stomach, between your breasts, up to your throat, never squeezing, just there. Possessive. Protective. His lips trail along your shoulder, just above the strap of your dress, while the other hand finally finds the zipper.
âIâd take you like this,â he says lowly, kissing the back of your neck. âMake you look at yourself while I ruin you, slow⌠deep⌠mine.â
Your knees nearly give out.
He presses forward just a little more, breath ragged now against your skin. âBut maybe we should stop.â
You whimper, actually whimper, and shake your head.
âNo, please,â you whisper, your voice breaking apart like the last wall crumbling. "Don't stop."
His hands freeze for just a moment, then he smirks, low and satisfied.
âThere she is.â
His smirk deepens, wicked, triumphant. He doesnât say a word.
Then, with deliberate force, he turns you.
Your back meets the cool edge of the vanity. Before you can fully catch your breath, his veiny hand is already on your throat, firm but careful, guiding your head back just enough to look up at him.
You gasp from the way it makes your knees go weak, the way it makes your heart stutter in your chest.
His gaze drops to your lips. Then slowly, almost torturously, he leans in, breath brushing your mouth, letting you feel the heat of it before he claims you.
The kiss is devastating. Nothing sweet. Nothing soft.
His mouth crashes into yours like heâs starved for it, tongue, teeth, everything. He takes and takes, groaning low in his throat the moment you moan against him. That tiny, helpless sound makes his fingers tighten slightly on your neck, his other hand sliding possessively down your side to your hip.
âGod, you sound so pretty when you do that,â he breathes between kisses, voice wrecked.
You melt under him, into him, letting him press you back against the vanity like he wants to fuse you to it. He breaks the kiss with a growl, breath hot against your lips, then suddenly, he spins you again.
You canât speak. You canât think. All you can do is feel his hands on your hips, feel the way his body aligns with yours so perfectly itâs almost cruel.
âStill pretending?â he asks, lips brushing the shell of your ear. âOr can I finally touch you like Iâve wanted to all fucking night?â
You nod before he even finishes the sentence. "Yes-, yes please," you whimper, hips tilting back into his, head tipping to give him more of your neck.
He chuckles under his breath.
âThought so.â
You donât have a chance to respond before his hands are on you again, more urgent this time. His fingers find the zipper of your dress, and he pulls it down, letting you feel every inch of his focus on you.
The dress slides off your body, pooling at your feet, and heâs quick to step back just enough to take you in. His eyes rake over you like heâs starving. You stand there, vulnerable, under his gaze, and you canât help the way your body reacts to him. The heat between your legs intensifies, the ache in your chest growing stronger.
âFuck,â he breathes, eyes raking over you from behind. âYouâre a goddamn dream.â
You gasp as he presses you into the vanity, your body trapped between the cool wood and the heat of him. His hands slide down to your thighs, pulling them apart slowly, giving him access, making sure you feel every moment of it. His voice drops to a velvet growl. âIâm gonna make you feel so fucking good, baby. Right here.â His lips press behind your ear again, âTell me you want it,â he demands.
And you canât hold back anymore. The tension in your body snaps, and you nod, your breath quickening. âI want it.â
He smirks, a dangerous glint in his eyes. âGood girl.â
His hand presses firmly between your thighs, rubbing you through the soaked fabric with just enough pressure to make your legs weaken beneath you.
He chuckles against your skin when he feels you tremble. âAlready this wet for me, baby?â
You nod helplessly, and his free hand slides up your back, tangling in your hair, pulling your head to the side to expose more of your neck.
His teeth graze your pulse point, and you moan again, louder this time. "Look in the mirror as I touch you."
Your breath stutters, lashes fluttering as your gaze locks on the reflection. âFuck, WooyoungâŚâ you whisper, already unsteady, your thighs trembling under his stare alone.
Then, with no warning, he hooks a finger in the waistband of your panties and drags them down your thighs, letting them fall. Cool air brushes against your wetness, and your whole body jolts in response.
âJesus-â you exhale, shivering.
His fingers slide through your slick folds, slow and deliberate, just enough pressure to make you twitch. You moan, sharp and helpless, eyes fluttering closed for a second until he tuts softly beside your ear.
âEyes open, sweetheart. I said look.â
You obey, forcing your eyes to the mirror again, and the sight of you, glowing, needy, lips parted, legs trembling, draws a sound from deep in your throat.
âThatâs it,â he murmurs, kissing just below your ear. âLet me take care of you.â
Then, he pushes in, just one finger at first, thick and deliberate. He doesnât rush. He presses in knuckle by knuckle, watching your face in the mirror as your lips part and your back arches. The way your body welcomes him makes his cock twitch under the fabrics.
âThere we go,â he whispers, dark and pleased. âSo fucking tight.â
He gives you a moment to adjust, curling that single finger just right, then pulls back, almost all the way, before pushing in again, deeper this time. You whimper, soft and broken.
âSuch a good girl for me,â he murmurs, dragging his lips along your jaw. âYou let me in so easily.â
When he slides in a second finger, your knees nearly give out, but he catches you, pressing his chest to your back and flattening his palm over your belly.
You cry out, raw and desperate, body jerking in his arms.
âRight there,â you gasp. âFuck, right there-, donât stop, please donât stop-â
His lips trace your jaw, voice molten.
âGood girl,â he whispers, moving his fingers just the way you need. âLet me hear you.â
And you do.
Loud, unfiltered, desperate for more.
Your hands grip the edge of the vanity. He watches in the mirror as your face twists in pleasure, breath shuddering every time he pumps into you. He doesnât relent. His fingers are steady, coaxing, relentless, fucking you precisely, like heâs memorizing every reaction.
âTell me how it feels,â he demands softly.
âSo good,â you breathe. âItâs-, god, Wooyoung-â
âThatâs right,â he cuts in, curling his fingers deeper. âSay my name like that.â
He shifts just slightly, just enough to hit the spot that sends stars bursting behind your eyes, and keeps that rhythm. Over and over.
âCome on,â he whispers against your ear, his breath hot and ragged. âI can feel it. Youâre right there, arenât you?â
You nod, desperately, eyes fluttering shut.
But he doesnât let you. His free hand curls around your throat, not squeezing, just holding, guiding you back to the mirror.
âNo. Look,â he growls, his voice low and possessive. âI want you to see how good I make you feel. How pretty you look falling apart just for me.â
You force your eyes open, lips parted, eye makeup already smudged, breath shaking, and what you see unravels you: his body pressed to yours, his hand moving between your legs like he owns you, his gaze fixed entirely on your reflection.
The sight of it, the feeling of him everywhere, inside and around you, tips you over the edge.
You cry out, helpless and raw, as your body clenches hard around his fingers. He doesnât slow. He works you through it, murmuring praise against your ear.
âThatâs it,â he groans. âThatâs my good girl. So fucking beautiful when you come for me.â
Your hips jerk, grinding into his palm as your orgasm pulses through you, long and overwhelming. When the waves finally ease, your body limp and trembling, he slowly withdraws his fingers, slick and shining.
You shiver, eyes fluttering shut as he presses his hips against you, the thick hardness of him pressing against your thighs.
He suddenly guides you forward, one hand on your back, he presses you down firmly, bending you over.
âStay just like that,â he commands, stepping back slightly to admire the view, your ass pushed out, your eyes wide in the mirror, lips already parted. âFuck. Look at you.â
Then you feel it, his hands on your thighs, spreading them, dragging his fingers slowly along your skin. His shirt hangs open, wrinkled and useless now, clinging to one shoulder, exposing his toned chest, flushed and rising with every harsh breath. His palm presses to the center of your back, bending you over the vanity with a firm, unyielding push.
âStay like that,â he murmurs, voice low and dark. âI want you spread out. Pretty. Obedient.â
You obey without thinking, chest against the cool surface. Then, with excruciating slowness, he undoes his belt. The sound alone makes your breath hitch. He keeps his eyes locked on yours in the mirror as he pushes his pants down just enough and frees himself, fingers wrapping around his cock like heâs been aching for this.
And when you see him⌠you go still.
Heâs thick, long, flushed and heavy in his hand, already glistening at the tip.
Your gasp escapes before you can stop it.
âOh?â he smirks, stroking himself lazily, intentionally, letting your eyes drink in every inch. âSurprised?â
You hear the sound of him spitting in his hand, stroking himself once, twice, and then that thick, hard length is sliding between your folds, teasing your entrance.
His hand slides into your hair, not rough, but controlling, guiding your eyes back to the mirror.
âEyes on the mirror,â he commands, hand fisting your hair just enough to lift your gaze. âYouâre gonna watch what it looks like when your best friend finally fucks you.â
Then, with one slow, devastating thrust, he sinks into you.
Deep.
Possessive.
Claiming.
He groans behind you, head falling forward, one hand gripping your hip tight enough to bruise.
âGod-, fuck, youâre big,â you gasp, hands scrambling to grip the edge of the vanity.
He pulls out halfway, then slams back in, hard enough to make the vanity rattle.
You gasp, fingers scrambling for the edge, and he laughs behind you, breathless.
âMore,â you cry, pushing back into him, shaking. âDonât stop-, fuck, please donât stop.â
âYou want more?â he hisses, grabbing a fistful of your hair and pulling your head up so youâre forced to look at yourself in the mirror. âLook at this mess. Look what Iâm doing to you.â
He slams into you harder. Filthy. Relentless. His palm lands on your ass, then rubs over the sting like he owns every inch of your body.
Then he snaps, hips continually slamming into you with a rhythm that steals the breath from your lungs. Over and over again. The sound of skin against skin echoes, obscene and raw, as he pounds into you like heâs lost all restraint. He leans over you suddenly, chest pressing to your back. His breath fans hot across your skin as his lips find your shoulder.
He kisses it once. Then again, slower.
âYou gonna come like this?â he demands, voice thick and breathless. âBent over, ass red, stuffed full of me?â
âYes-,â
But he doesnât let you come.
Not yet.
Just when your body tenses, right on the edge, he pulls out halfway and stills.
You let out a sob, raw and desperate, collapsing onto your elbows against the vanity.
âNoâŚâ you whimper, voice trembling. âWhyâd you stop?â
âBecause I said so,â he growls behind you, breathing hard. âAnd if youâre mine now⌠you come when I let you.â
A sharp slap lands on your ass, the heat blooming instantly, making you cry out and he grins at the way your thighs twitch, how your body tries to grind back into him without thinking.
âOh, you like that,â he mutters, dragging his palm over the curve of your ass, then gripping both cheeks hard, spreading you open as he groans. âLook at this view. Fucking perfect. So pretty and messy for me.â
His hand grabs your wrist, dragging you upright, spinning you to face him. His mouth crashes into yours in a messy, heated kiss, all teeth and tongue and breathless need. You barely have time to cling to him before heâs walking you backward toward the bed.
âYou think I was gonna finish you over a vanity?â he growls against your lips. âNot a fucking chance.â
You fall back onto the mattress with a gasp, legs spread slightly, chest heaving, body already trembling from the way heâs used you, and he just stands there for a second, looking down at you like heâs never seen anything more perfect.
Then his eyes narrow.
âSpread your legs wider.â
You do, instantly.
His shirt is half off, a desperate tug of fabric, and as he pulls his pants fully down, heâs not wasting any time to let you get a full look at him. His cock stands heavy, dripping with need, leaking as he strokes himself with a low growl.
You open your mouth, but the words die as he moves closer, kneeling on the edge of the bed. His hand wraps around your ankle and drags you toward him, his grip firm, claiming. He leans over you, one hand planted beside your head, the other dragging slowly along your inner thigh.
âTell me,â he demands, brushing his nose along your jaw. âDid it turn you on? Knowing he saw you with me? Knowing he saw how badly I wanted to rip that dress off you?â
âYes,â you whisper, breath hitching.
Then heâs kissing you again, slower this time but just as possessive. His hand wraps behind your neck, holding you in place as he takes what he wants, savoring your reactions, feeding off every moan that escapes you.
âLook at this,â he mutters, gaze locked between your legs. âSo swollen. So wet. All for me.â
His hand drags slowly down your stomach, the heat of his palm branding every inch of skin it touches. Itâs not hurried, no, itâs maddeningly slow, his fingers grazing along the dip below your navel, making your muscles jump with anticipation.
Then his fingers reach your folds, gliding through your slickness, deliberately lazy. You twitch under his touch, hips tilting up instinctively.
And then-
He slaps your pussy. Open palm. Quick.
The sound cracks through the room, sharp and obscene. The sting hits you a second later, blooming heat across your center, and your whole body jolts, legs trembling.
âFuck-!â you cry out, back arching off the bed. âWooyoung-,â
He smirks down at you, all dark satisfaction. âOh yeah,â he says, eyes heavy with lust. âYou liked that.â
Before you can catch your breath, he does it again. A second slap, just as sharp. The impact makes your thighs jerk apart, a cry tearing from your throat.
He moans, actually moans at the sight of you coming undone. âGod, youâre so fucking hot when you take it like that.â
Your body is pulsing, burning, begging.
âLook at you,â he murmurs, breath hot as he leans closer, dragging two fingers through your folds again. âDripping. You get this wet from just my hand?â
He rubs your clit in tight, quick circles, pressure unforgiving but just right, sending sparks up your spine. The contrast of pain and pleasure makes your head spin.
Your hands grip the sheets hard enough to cramp. âFuck, Wooyoung-, donât stop-â
He chuckles low and hungry. âDidnât plan on it.â
With one smooth motion, he shifts, settling between your thighs. His cock, thick, flushed, already leaking, presses against your entrance, the tip catching on your slick folds. He rubs himself through your arousal, slow and teasing, just enough to make your hips chase him.
You try to lift your hips, to take him in, but he pins you back down, eyes wild.
âNo. I get to fuck you when I say so,â he growls, mouth crashing down onto yours, kissing you hard, deep, messy, like heâs starving. Like your mouth is the only thing thatâs ever tasted good.
When he finally thrusts in, itâs a single, brutal stroke, burying himself to the hilt and knocking the air right out of your lungs.
âFuck,-â you gasp, eyes rolling back.
He doesnât give you a second to adjust before pulling back and slamming into you again, the force of it leaving you breathless.
He doesnât stop. He grabs your wrists, pins them above your head, body caging you in like a predator. His mouth finds yours, kissing you like heâs drowning, messy and hot and desperate. Teeth, tongue, breathless moans between every clashing movement.
âDonât you dare look away,â he growls against your lips. âLook at me while I fuck you.â
So you do.
His pupils are blown, his hair a mess, sweat on his brow, mouth parted. But itâs his eyes, the way heâs looking at you like youâre all heâs ever wanted, and that makes your heart slam against your ribs.
Youâre gasping, crying out, and he swallows every sound, his kiss never softening, only growing more frenzied as his hips pound into you.
âYou feel that?â he pants into your mouth. âThatâs mine. This pussyâs mine.â
He lets go of your wrists just long enough to grab your thigh, throw your leg over his shoulder, driving deeper, angle harsher. His grip is punishing, like he needs to hold you down to keep from losing his mind.
âShit-,â you sob, clinging to him now. âYouâre so deep-, I canât-,â
âYou can,â he growls. âOh, fuck, baby-, thatâs it,â he smirks, sweat dripping down from his neck. âYou feel so good-, so fucking tight, so wet, I could stay buried in this pussy forever.â
He drops his head to your neck, biting and sucking bruises into your skin, marking you as his hands move constantly, palming your breast, gripping your hip, dragging across your thigh, he canât stop touching you.
âThatâs it,â he pants. âLet me make you feel so fucking good.â
You clench around him and he nearly loses it, thrusts getting sloppier, harder, messier. He grabs your jaw, forces your eyes to his.
âPlease-, Wooyoung, Iâm close-â
âYeah? Let me hear you. Come for me. Come on my cock, baby, let me feel you.â
And it hits you, fast and deep, your whole body tensing as pleasure crashes through you like a wave you couldnât stop even if you tried.
Wooyoung watches it take you, and it wrecks him.
âGod, baby,â he growls, suddenly losing all rhythm, all control. âYou feel so-, fuck, Iâm not gonna last-,â
You reach up, grabbing his face with both hands, forcing him to look at you just like he did to you. âDonât stop. Give it to me.â
That does it.
With a strangled moan of your name, he buries himself in you with a final, desperate thrust. His whole body tenses as he gives in, letting himself fall apart.
You canât help but look at his face as that wave of pleasure overtakes him. His mouth is parted, lips trembling with the sounds he canât hold back, brows drawn together in a tight knot like heâs fighting to stay grounded. The muscles in his jaw twitch, veins standing out along his neck and arms, his whole body straining as he spills everything into you.
When he finally exhales, itâs a ragged, shaky breath, and his body slowly relaxes, chest rising and falling heavily as he tries to come back down. He doesnât pull away. Doesnât say a word. He just lowers his weight over you gently, careful not to crush you, his face pressing into the crook of your neck.
You can still feel the warmth of him inside you, the lingering tension of release pulsing between your bodies.
Then he lifts his head, just barely, and looks down at you, really looks. His gaze roams over your flushed cheeks, kiss-bitten lips, the way youâre still dazed and boneless beneath him.
And then he grins. Slow, smug, wicked.
âGod,â he says, voice low and pleased.
You blink up at him, heart stuttering. âWhat?â
He doesnât answer right away, just lets his eyes drag over you like heâs memorizing everything. The mess heâs made of you. The way you still havenât caught your breath.
âYouâre gorgeous,â he says simply, but it lands heavy in your chest. âLike⌠stupid beautiful.â
Heat rushes to your face. You instinctively turn your head, trying to hide the way your lips curl, the way you canât even look at him right now.
But that just makes him laugh, low and breathless.
âOh no,â he murmurs, fingers catching your chin, turning your face back to his. âdonât get all shy on me now. Not after the things I just did to you.â
âWooyoung-â you try to protest, flustered, but itâs useless.
He shifts suddenly, his hand pinning your wrist to the bed as he leans in, eyes blazing. âNope,â he growls playfully.
When his mouth crashes into yours, itâs not sweet or teasing, itâs intense. Deep and all-consuming, like heâs starving for you. His tongue claims yours, every movement deliberate, dominant.
When he finally pulls back, barely an inch, his lips are swollen and his voice is wrecked.
âIâm never gonna get enough of you,â he murmurs against your lips. âNever.â
***
You wake up slowly, the soft light of the morning creeping into the room, bathing everything in a warm glow. His arm is still draped over you, his breath steady and calm. You shift gently, trying not to wake him, but you canât help but linger for a moment, watching his peaceful expression. He looks so content, so relaxed, last night still feels like a dream.
Carefully, you lift his arm from your waist and slip out of bed. As you stand, you glance back at him. His face is soft, his black hair a little messy, and the sight of him, even in his sleep, makes your heart flutter. You try to suppress the smile that tugs at your lips, but you canât help it.
Quietly, you make your way to the kitchen. The cool air of the morning greets you as you open the cabinet and pull out his cereal box.
Youâre perched on the kitchen counter, bare legs dangling, quietly munching on a bowl of Wooyoungâs ridiculous neon-colored cereal. The box sits beside you, obnoxiously bright. Youâd teased him for years about how awful it looked, and secretly craved it every time.
You hear the soft shuffle of feet before you see him.
Wooyoung emerges from the hallway, shirtless, his hair a messy halo of waves, eyes still heavy with sleep. He looks like a dream and somehow worse for your heart in the morning light. A familiar ache stirs in your chest. This is your best friend. Your roommate. The same guy who left his laundry in the hallway and screamed at horror games.
The same guy who had his hands all over you last night and made you come like no one else.
âMorning, roomie,â he mutters, voice low and rough, smirking when his eyes catch yours. They linger. âIs that my cereal?â
You nod, trying not to choke on it now that your mouthâs gone dry. âIt was calling to me.â
He walks right up to you, stepping between your legs like heâs done it a thousand times. Only now, thereâs nothing innocent about the way he crowds your space.
You glance down, gripping the bowl a little tighter. Your voice comes out quieter than you meant. âYou, uh⌠want some?â
He doesnât answer.
Just takes the spoon from your hand, still warm from your touch, and scoops up a bite like itâs nothing. His other hand settles on your thigh, casual but firm. You forget how to breathe.
He hums like itâs gourmet. âGod, I love this shit.â
You try to roll your eyes, but itâs weak. Heâs too close. Too warm. Too real.
And then, without warning, he leans in close, mouth brushing your ear.
âGood morning, beautiful,â
Before you can say anything else, before your heart can fully flip in your chest, he kisses you.
Itâs soft at first, like heâs testing the waters, but then it deepens, and the world around you fades. Thereâs no rush, no frantic need, just the slow, steady push and pull of lips, the quiet hum of connection between you two, something thatâs always been there but is only now being acknowledged.
His lips linger just long enough to make your stomach twist in the best way before he pulls back, barely.
You stare at him, still a little dazed. He smirks.
âWhat?â he says, all fake innocence. âYou gonna yell at me for stealing your cereal or for kissing you?â
You eye him, lips twitching. âStill weighing my options.â
He shrugs, hands still warm where theyâre resting on your thighs. âTake your time. Iâve got all morning.â
âYouâre literally the most impatient person I know,â you mutter.
âMm,â he hums, brushing his thumb just under the hem of your shorts, right where it makes your breath catch. âNot when it comes to you. I like watching you squirm too much.â
You exhale a laugh, trying not to give him the satisfaction. He just grins wider, enjoying seeing you like this.
Itâs completely unfair, the way he looks so relaxed. Like this, you and him and whatever happened last night, isnât a big deal. Like waking up tangled together, touching each other like that, was just the natural next step.
And maybe⌠maybe it was.
âYou know,â he adds after a beat, glancing at your bowl again, âI thought about that last night.â
âWhat, the cereal?â you ask, trying to level your voice.
He nods, all faux-innocent. âHad this whole internal debate. Go finish the box or save you some.â
You squint at him. âYou didnât even eat any.â
âExactly.â He grins. âFell asleep. Dreamt about it. Woke up, and there you were. Stealing the first bowl like some greedy little gremlin.â
You scoff. âWow. Rude.â
âAnd hungry,â he adds, stealing your spoon without looking. He takes another bite, still watching you, chewing like heâs thinking about sin. âMight be craving something a little messier, though.â
You scoff, but your thighs tense around his hips, pulling him in closer. He feels it. Of course he does.
You think thatâs the end of it, but then he tilts his head a little, voice dropping. âAlso, you were real cute sneaking around out here like I couldnât hear you. Hair all messy. Wearing nothing but your-â
âStop,â you cut in, already feeling the heat crawl up your neck.
He just laughs, clearly enjoying this way too much. âIâm just saying. Round two almost happened right then and there.â
You shoot him a look. âI was literally getting cereal.â
He leans in, lips brushing your cheek again before he murmurs, âYeah, and you still looked hot.â
You go quiet, too aware of his mouth near yours and the fact that heâs still standing between your knees like he belongs there.
You open your mouth, no idea what youâre even going to say, but heâs already leaning in.
And then he kisses you again, easy, unhurried, like itâs just what he does now. Like kissing you is second nature.
And god, maybe it is.

Previous Part
Masterlist | Ateez Masterlist | Series Masterlist
When you started college, you didn't think things would be this... complicated. Your first year had been all about studying, not really having much time for friends, let alone boys. The few friends you had made tried to get you out there, but nothing appealed to you. Parties were too noisy, and meeting new people just didn't seem interesting to you. But something about your second year seemed to completely turn things around.
When you first met Seonghwa, you had been starstruck just like every other girl who had crossed his path. You remember very vividly how much of a fool you made yourself look when you bumped into him, dropping your stuff everywhere, and how you sputtered out nonsense as you picked up everything. How he mumbled a little âCuteâ while looking down at you before walking away. It made you wonder why you had never seen him before that moment; his looks made him hard to miss.
From that day forward, college wasnât just about studying. You had started putting more effort into your outfit- skirts got a little shorter, your makeup was a little heavier, and your hair sported a cute little bow. You had talked to a few girls to try and figure him out a little more. You learned his name, his major, that heâs in a frat, heâs in his third year and that heâs a raging asshole. That last part you chose to ignore. After that, you found every reason to be around Seonghwa, whether it was just passing by him in a building that was on the other side of campus than where your class was, or walking by his usual hangout spot just so he would notice you. Of course, he never batted an eye in your direction, but the effort was there.
That's how you found yourself walking up the steps of the large frat house that decided to throw a party on a random Wednesday night. Now, you usually skip these types of events, no matter how much your friends begged, but you were not going to pass up the opportunity to see Seonghwa again.
So here you were pushing through a sea of sweaty people, eyes peeled for the man whoâs been consuming your thoughts for the past few weeks. You pull your mini-skirt down as much as you can, feeling very out of place. Your friends had long since ditched you, and the crowd was suffocating.
âWell. Iâve never seen you before.â A voice says, startling you from behind. You turn and see a hazy pair of eyes staring at you. You shift around, not really knowing how to reply. He could almost smell the uneasiness coming off you. "You look like a lost little lamb. You want me to keep you company?" He slides a hand around your shoulders, and you can smell the alcohol on his breath. "Um, sorry, I'm actually looking for someone," you mumble, trying to push his arm off. "Oh, come on, sweetheart, don't be like that. Let Wooyoung keep you company, yeah?" You look around, trying to find an out when another voice comes to your rescue, "Woo. Leave the poor girl alone" You froze, the familiar voice rang through your ears. When you turn Seonghwa's dark eyes stare back, a little smirk is adorned on his face
Seonghwa led you up to what you assumed was his room. When you entered, you saw a very tidy space. It was very simple: a bed, a dresser, a desk, and very minimal decorations. It was your first time being in a boy's room, so you didnât know what to expect, but you expected some sort of mess. He didn't give you much time to look around, grabbing your hand and guiding you to his bed. His lips were hot against yours, and your head felt fuzzy. This was very different than the few kisses you had before. Those little pecks were nothing compared to the magic you felt now.
Things quickly started to heat up, and panic rushed through your body when you felt his hands slide up your shirt. "Wait. I uh. I've never done this before," You said quietly while looking down. "Oh, I know. It's very obvious," His hand comes to lift your chin so you're looking into his eyes. "Don't worry. I'll go slow."
After that night, your infatuation with Seonghwa clearly grew. With such a naive mind, you thought it was the start of a budding relationshipâuntil you saw him the next day, arm around some girl from your chemistry class. You cried and cried to your friends who already knew how he was. You stopped taking the long way to class and didn't put as much effort in the morning. After a couple of weeks, he started to slowly drift out of your mind until one random Thursday afternoon, you received a dm on Instagram. The little 'hey' he sent started the toxic cycle that became normal for you.
It had been a few days since you had last seen Seonghwa, his behavior had been confusing you, and you had no idea what was going through his head. His silence became a norm to you, so when you received the text from him asking you to come over for a "little chat" it baffled you to no end, but before you could reply, a surprising phone call from Jongho came in. You stared at the screen for a second, trying to figure out whether or not you were just seeing things. You hesitantly pressed the answer button: "Hello?" You're met with silence, and you start to think that he might have called you by accident. You wait a couple of seconds, debating if you should hang up.
Jongho, on the other line, sat anxiously waiting for you to answer. He had thought long and hard about whether he should give you another chance. He knew with Seonghwa still around, he would always pose a threat, which was a risk he wasn't sure if he was willing to take. But here he sat waiting for you to answer, and he was just about to give you when he heard your voice. He didn't know what to say at firs,t "Hey I know I've been ignoring you for the past couple of weeks because I was mad and wanted to get back at you for hurting me even though I forgave you a long time ago" no... no, he couldn't say that. He contemplates just hanging up and trying again later, but he knows if he did that, he would just keep putting it off. "Hey. I think I'm ready to talk now." He cringed as soon as the words left him, not really wanting to say it that way. "Really?!" You didn't even care about how eager you sounded, not when Jongho was ready to hear you out.
Now you were stuck with the hard decision of who you were going to meet. Seonghwa seemed to have an overnight personality change, which was off-putting, but you weren't necessarily complaining. Then, Jongho was actually ready to talk to you after weeks of trying. Your brain was confused

distraction



pairing: hongjoong x fem reader
genre/warnings: FWB, uni students hj and reader, oral and fingering (f receiving), unprotected sex, doggy, creampie, we're going in there no lube no protection mode for nerd hongjoong; let's imagine reader has an IUD or smth; a dash of pining as a treat; barely proofread sowwy
word count: a lil over 2.2k
a/n: saurrrr I couldnât stop thinking about THIS post by @crimsonbubble, it literally possessed my brain and inspired this little fic, so here we go!
minors and blank blogs dni, you will be blocked
dividers by @cafekitsune
You punch in the door code Hongjoong gave you, trusted you with, and enter his small apartment.Â
âItâs me,â you announce, closing the door behind you. No reply.
Down the hall is his room. Thatâs where you find him, hunched over his desk, writing, then crossing over something in his notepad, laptop open in front of him, its screen displaying math formulas you wonât even try to decipher. He lifts his head to greet you, and you notice dark circles under his eyes. His face is pale, hair all mussed, probably from his hands running through it, glasses messy with fingerprints.
âWhoa, what happened here?â You wonder out loud.
He squints at you from behind the glasses. It doesnât escape you how he glances down for just one moment at your short skirt before looking at your face again.
âI have a big report due. You too, if I remember correctly?â
âIâm done with it,â you beam down at him. He raises one eyebrow instead of actually voicing his questions. âYeah, thatâs the beauty of half-assing assignments. You should try it sometimes.â
âNot an option,â Hongjoong deadpans. He goes back to writing in the notepad while you walk towards his single bed positioned next to a wall and sit on the edge.
âHave you even left your place once in the past twenty-four hours?â
âDidn't need to,â he replies without looking up.
âI admire your dedication,â you say with a sigh, âbut you need to take breaks, you know? Your brain will short circuit otherwise.â
âWhat do you suggest?â
âOh, I donât know,â you slide your hands under your skirt, hook your thumbs in the waistband of your black lacy underwear and pull it down. Leaving it stretched around your knees, you recline on your elbows. âI think you should try distracting yourself with something, hm?â
âLike what?â
He turns to looks at you, when he doesn't get a response. With a tired sigh, he leans back in his office chair and looks you up and down, biting his lower lip. He taps his pen against his notebook quickly. You donât like how he sometimes pretends he doesnât want it. You know he likes this as much as you do, but he prefers to toy with you a little first.
You almost think heâs not going to take the bait, but he slowly gets up and drops his glasses on the desk. He makes his way to you in this small bedroom and puts his hands on your knees.
âYou really think this will help me?â He gently runs his fingers over the skin of your thighs. âOr are you just bored after, as you say, half-assing your work?â
âTwo things can be true at once, Kim Hongjoong,â you smile up at him.
He rolls his eyes with a smirk before hooking his fingers under the waistband of your panties. You let him lift your legs to take your underwear off and then spread them when he kneels in front of you.
Unlike you, Hongjoong doesnât half-ass anything, including making love to you. And this is exactly what you call it in your head, despite the two of you not being officially together. Because there are simply no other words in your vocabulary to describe it.
He teases you slowly, never jumps right in, he makes sure to arouse you to the point where you're dripping down your thighs for him. Little touches, caresses, kisses, and nips to your skin, his hot breath leaving goosebumps in its wake. You used to be impatient, but now youâve learned to just hand yourself over to him and trust him to take care of you.
He makes sure to give attention to your inner thighs, kissing and sucking, kneading your soft flesh with his hands, your head spinning with anticipation as he gets closer and closer to where you need him. He gives you new hickeys in places of those that faded away, so you can remember him till next time.
You sigh when he finally runs his fingers through your slick folds, spreading the mess around, rubbing you all around, giving just enough stimulation to have you clenching rhythmically with arousal. You whine and close your eyes, completely giving into this feeling.
He spreads your lips with his fingers, leans down and licks a wide strip from your hole up to your swollen clit.Â
âOh, fuck,â you whisper grabbing the comforter under you. He starts with slow licks, spreading saliva over you soft sensitive skin, before he attaches his mouth to you, making out with your pussy and softly moaning into it. The feeling of his warm wet mouth on you is almost enough to make you cum on the spot. The slick sounds and his little soft moans, like heâs the one receiving pleasure right now only add to the sensation. Not only does it feel good to be with him, but the sounds of your sex nearly make you blush like a virgin every time.
His fingers move lower, softly prodding at your entrance, massaging it. He alternates between suckling your clit lightly and flicking his tongue over it, while his pointer finger slowly breaches you. Before you know it, two of his fingers are stretching you while his thumb massages your lips.
He starts with shallow thrusts until they move freely inside of you, all the while still pleasing you with his tongue. Youâre so turned on that itâs getting hard to breathe properly. All you can do is lie there and moan and take what heâs giving you. The pleasure starts to peak when he curves his fingers inside of you, rubbing your walls with his fingertips.
âOhh fuck, please, Iâm gonnaââ
Just when your orgasm is within reach, he stops. The sudden loss of stimulation leaves your whole body restless and in need of release. You open your eyes with a huff and try to glare at him, only to be met with a sweet smile.
He stands up, and the way he grabs himself through his sweats to relieve some pressure has you clenching your walls around nothing. You lick your lips absentmindedly, staring at the outline of his cock in his pants. He nods to the head of the bed, giving you a silent clue to get on all fours. When you do, heâs behind you in an instant, lifting your skirt and revealing your plump ass to him.
He moves his hand under you and runs his whole palm over your folds again, and you whine needily, moving your hips to grind against his touch.
âShh, youâre okay,â his soothing voice comes from behind you. âIâve got you.â
His hands leave you for a couple of seconds, and you hear clothes rustling as he lowers his pants. With his right hand on you again, holding your hips in place, the left guides his cock and you feel the warm weight of it slide between your folds. It moves up and down, spreading them, his soft skin getting coated in the mix of your arousal and his spit. The head occasionally bumps into your sensitive clit, making you grab the comforter impatiently again.
âMmh, please, Joongâ you try to move your hips back to meet him.
âYou were right, this is a fun distractionâ, he chuckles breathlessly behind you. By the sound of his voice, youâre not the only one affected by this teasing, but Hongjoong wouldnât be Hongjoong if he just gave you what you want this easily.
The blunt head of his cock finally sinks into you, and you moan at the stretch, preparing for more, but he just canât stop teasing you, groping your ass while just the tip rests inside of you. You grunt in annoyance, dropping your head and grinding your teeth.
âCome on, pleaseâŚâ
âSince youâre asking so nicely,â the smile in his voice is evident as he gently rubs the soft skin of your hips.
Finally, with a sigh, he slowly pushes all the way inside. His length slides into you easily. At this point of your arrangement, your walls are probably molded to his shape and will refuse to take anyone else.
He draws back just a little before pushing back in, slowly grinding into you. The slow drag of his length inside of you is too much and not enough at the same time. His moves are languid, letting you feel all of him, hear every sound both of your bodies make while connected like this.
He draws back almost all the way and pushes inside again. You feel like your skin is on fire, your insides twisting and coiling, needing him to bring you to your high again. He maneuvers your hips to find the right spot and when he does, you canât help the moan that escapes you.
âOh, God, Joong.âÂ
Now that heâs got it, he grips you tighter and picks up the pace, hips slapping against your ass. Heâs so precise with his movements, the head of his cock brushing your sweet spot with every stroke, sending tingles through your core. The bed creaks weakly as your body sways with the force of his thrusts. Your arms give out, and you end up with your face all the way down. Without missing a beat, he still pounds into that spot, moving your hips to meet his.
You push your face further into the pillow that smells like him, something tugging at your heart. Shoving the emotion to the back of your head, you try to focus on the feeling in your stomach, burning like the sun.
When it seems like it couldnât get any better, he brings one of his hand around your body to the point where your bodies connect. His pointer and middle finger rub insistently on the both sides from where his cock is stretching, and then up to your clit. The added stimulation renders you practically incoherent, moaning and sobbing from how good youâre feeling.Â
With his other arm supporting his weight on the bed, he leans down until his chest is flush against your back.
âOh my godâ, you mumble dumbly into the pillow.
All of the jocks on campus with their chiseled abs and macho attitude, and whatever else could never top the way he makes you feel. The way your body trembles with pleasure when he touches you. Thereâs no ridiculous dirty talk, no asking to call him things like daddy or whatever. No, heâs just focused on both of you feeling good. Even though this is just an arrangement for convenience, you never feel like youâre just a thing to him.
It all works in tandem to bring you the ultimate pleasure â his cock inside of you, his fingers rubbing you just right, him pressing against you, rugged breathing and soft groans in your ear letting you know how he likes the way youâre clenching around him. The tingling feeling in your stomach explodes into a million stars, spreading through your legs and making your whole body spasm. He keeps caressing you lightly as you come around him with a soft cry, face still buried in his pillow.
Hongjoong lets you ride out your high before starting to move again. Despite whining with overstimulation, you move your hips on instinct to meet his slow thrusts. A quick kiss to your neck catches you by surprise.
âJust a little more, beautiful.â
He hugs you closer, his arm holding onto your midriff, practically fucking you into the mattress now, his cock driving so deep that the breath is almost knocked out of you.
After a few more sharp and deep thrusts, you feel him unloading into you with a strained moan. Heâs still plastered to your back, hot breath hitting your neck. You lie there enveloped by his scent, feeling him twitch inside as your walls milk him of the last drops. For a little while, you allow yourself to bask in the moment of him holding you close, his ragged breathing hitting the back of your neck. You start missing it the moment he moves away to get up.
Even though he doesn't stay to linger in the afterglow, it never feels like youâre being tossed aside either. He doesnât even reprimand you when you just keep laying there, his cum leaking out of you and onto the bed comforter. He gets up to get some wet wipes, helps you clean and put your underwear back on, and gives you a forehead kiss.
âTake as much time as you need.â
After that, he goes back to his desk. You rest on the bed a little longer and look at his profile as he keeps working on his report. Finally, when both your heartbeat and breathing go back to normal, you feel like youâre ready to leave.
âSee ya.â
âYeah.â
You take some more time to gather your thoughts after you close the door behind yourself. Why is it so awkward to walk away? You both got what you wanted. Just like you will the next time this happens, until one of you decides this isnât what they want anymore. But which one of you will it be?

⥠Pairing: couple!woosan x best friend!fem!reader, best friend!ateez
⥠Genre: fluff/smut/angst
⥠Summary: After a terrible breakup two of your dearest friends welcomed you into their home. Living with them has been a total dream so far, one that has you developing feelings you aren't quite ready to face but, when a dinner with your friend group forces you to confront those feelings, you realize that you might not be the only one who has them.
⥠Word Count: 6.8kish

⥠Warnings: woo and san are indeed a couple, boys kissing, kissing in general, drinking, threesome, lots of praise, unprotected sex, soft dom woosan, oral sex (m&f receving), some clit play, nipple play, nibbling, hickeys, a lil manhandling, double penetration, creampie, swallowing, finger sucking, some booty slaps, overstimulation, squirting, pet names (sweetie, baby, sweetheart, good girl, etc), and that's all darlings.
⥠A/N: I really wanted to write a nice, warm lil comfort fic and this was the result of that. As I always say, I hope you sweet baby darlings enjoy this. Especially my WooSan babes out there.

When you first decided to move in with Wooyoung and San everyone warned you that it might not be the best idea. The two of them had been dating for years at that point and, though you knew them just as long, being best friends with a couple is much different than living with one. They had their own habits, their own unique dynamic, and the introduction of a single woman into the mix might have thrown it off in ways that irreversibly damaged your friendship.
For all the worries that people planted into your brain, the reality of the situation was drastically different. From the night you moved your last box into their spare bedroom you felt like you were home. They were doing you a major favor, letting you move in after a terrible breakup with your ex, but they never made you feel like it. Instead they welcomed you with open arms, immediately jumping to do everything in their power to make sure you felt comfortable.
During those first few weeks you made it a point to shrink yourself, not wanting to take up too much space or get in their way. They quickly reassured you that it wasnât necessary. If they didnât want you there you wouldnât have been there. You could take up as much space as you wanted, get in their way whenever you pleased. They were just happy to have you.
Before you knew it the three of you were doing everything together. Cooking each other breakfast before work, curling up on the couch for movie nights, staying up late to talk about whatever popped into your heads. It reached the point that you hardly had to make your own bed because of the endless nights you found yourself dozing off in theirs.
Woo and San always treated you like a princess, living with them wasnât a requirement for that, but after you moved in it got so much worse. You had to argue them down to let you do dishes or wash your own clothes. You didnât even try when it came to carrying in bags after grocery shopping. You knew if you did youâd never hear the end of it from either of them. Even now as you sit at the elegantly decorated table of an upscale restaurantâall of your closest friends gathered for the usual Saturday night dinnerâthey wonât let you lift a finger.
With Woo on one side of you and San on the other, you only have to extend your hand towards something you want and it's yours. A particularly crispy cut of pork belly catches your eye and before you know it Wooâs swooped it up with his chopsticks.Â
âWoo, you didnât have to do thatâ you whisper beneath the chatter of conversation at the table.
âHmm? Did you say something?â he asks, knowing very well that he heard you. He raises it to your lips, patiently waiting for you to take a bite.Â
You stare at it for a moment, refusing to eat it solely because of the entertainment that comes with testing Wooâs patience. San drapes his arm over the back of your chair, replenishing the tall crystal glass before you with sweet red wine.Â
âEat it or heâll get all sulkyâ San teases, cutting his eyes at his boyfriend whose lips have already begun to form a pout.Â
âI do not get sulkyâ Woo protests, indeed sulking. Heâs cute when he does it, knowledge that he weaponizes every chance he gets.Â
You and San look at each other, sharing a giggle, before you give in and take a bite. Woo watches as you chew, making sure that you enjoy it. If you donât heâll get you another.Â
âHappy?â you smile once youâre done and Woo nods, returning his attention back to his own plate.Â
Across the table Hongjoong watches you curiously, something youâve caught him doing all night. No one else seems to notice but for you it canât be ignored. The two of you lock eyes and he asks you a question without words. You wish heâd use them, spit out whatever the hell is on his mind already, because the tensionâs eating you alive.Â
âSo does anyone know what weâre doing for New Yearâs Eve or is it party at Seonghwaâs?â Yunho asks, gesturing for Jongho to hand him a dish.Â
Seonghwa frowns, his cheeks too packed full of food to speak clearly, âMy house? Why my house?âÂ
âOoh, yeah, then I can come over and touch all your stuffâ Mingi says, attempting to swipe some food from Seonghwaâs plate.Â
Seonghwa slaps him on the back of the hand with his chopsticks, âIâll kill you.âÂ
âWe could all go camping,â Jongho suggests, âI know a really good spot for it.â
The table falls silent with the exception of Yeosang who nods in support of the younger man. âThatâsâŚan idea.â
âWe can host this yearâ San offers, flashing that dimpled smile, âWe have the room for it.â
Hongjoong takes a sip of his wine, his icy glare falling upon you and only you. âAre you sure? Donât you think your apartmentâs gotten kinda crowded lately?âÂ
The comment strikes a chord with Woo, his irritation apparent in how swiftly his demeanor shifts. âAnd what exactly is that supposed to mean?â he asks, chewing at his bottom lip.Â
âNothingâŚitâs nothingâ Hongjoong laughs, sitting back in his chair, âMaybe I should keep my comments to myself.â
âMaybe you shouldâŚâ Woo snaps.
San clears his throat, rising from the table before the situation can escalate, âI have to go make a quick call. Baby, could you come with me?â
Woo doesnât respond and he isnât pretending to be hard of hearing this time. He and Hongjoong are having a staring contest. A silent war as violent as if someone had thrown a punch.Â
âWooyoung!â San says with more bass in his voice this time. Itâs enough to snap Woo out of it but he still lingers a moment before getting up himself.Â
Taking you by the hand, Woo stares down at you, searching your face for any sign that Hongjoongâs words hurt your feelings. âYouâll be okay?âÂ
You nod, presenting him with a smile that you hope soothes him a bit. âIâm okay. Just go.âÂ
San pets your hair, planting a kiss on your forehead, âBe back in a second.âÂ
You watch as San walks Woo outside like a mother about to lay into her child for misbehaving. As calm as youâve remained all night, you canât hide your own irritation at the way Hongjoongâs been acting. It isnât Wooâs fault that he decided to say something so rude. Whatever problem he has with you is with you. Woo and San shouldnât be a part of it.
Turning back to the table you find that all conversation of a New Yearâs Eve celebration has ended. Everyoneâs dead silent, unsure of what to say, if thereâs anything to say at all.Â
âIf you have something to say to me, why not just say it?â you ask, âOr are we just intent on acting like children tonight?â
âThis meal is delicious, isnât it? Really. I know we come here all the time but thereâs something about it tonightâ Yunho interrupts in an attempt to keep the peace.Â
Seonghwa shakes his head at him, his own history as the peacemaker teaching him that itâs not worth it. When Hongjoongâs in a mood heâs in a mood and thereâs nothing to be said about it.Â
Hongjoong shrugs, poking around at his plate, âI donât have anything to say really. Iâm just curiousâI think we all areâabout whatâs going on here.â
Your eyebrows furrow in genuine confusion, âWhat are you talking about?â
Hongjoong looks to Wooâs seat then to Sanâs and right back at you, the girl at the center of it all. âI know weâre all close but the way you three have been acting lately goes a little beyond close. You canât blame us for thinkingâŚâ
âThinking what?â You look around the table, hoping that one of your friends will jump in and tell Hongjoong how silly heâs being. Instead they avert eye contact. They treat you like youâre a stranger and, in the world of the secret whisperings among them, thatâs exactly what you are. It takes a moment for Hongjoongâs words to make sense. He said something without saying it and itâs clear heâs not the only person with that on the tip of their tongue.
The moment it hits you, your palms begin to sweat, the air around you growing hotter. You try your best to act clueless, pretending to have no idea where theyâd get these ideas from. Itâs not because you have anything to hide. Nothing has happened between the three of you and nothing will. But sometimes youâve felt itâa tingle when Wooâs holding your hand or those butterflies when youâre cuddled up with San. Itâs a purely platonic act on their part, thereâs nothing more to it, but the feelings are there whether you like it or not and the idea that anyone else can see it is frightening.Â
âYou canât be serious. You donât thinkâŚtheyâre my best friends, like we all are. Thereâs nothingâŚthey donât even like girlsâ you stutter, a shaky hand reaching for the neck of your wine glass.Â
Yeosangâs eyes widen at your declaration and he has to reach for a glass of water to keep from choking on his food.Â
Mingi quirks his head at you, shooting a quick glance at Hongjoong. âWho told you that?âÂ
âTold me what?â
Jongho laughs to himself, tickled by this exchange. âThat they donât like girls.â
âBut they donât. Theyâre gay.âÂ
âOh, honeyâ Hongjoong sighs, letting up on you for the first time tonight, âWe thought you were just playing it up. You really are clueless.âÂ
You open your mouth to say something more, you arenât even sure what that is, but the feeling of Sanâs hand on your shoulder makes you swallow your words.Â
âWhat are we talking about?â he asks, taking his seat at your side. He looks to you only, picking up on your nervousness in an instant. His face turns serious and you place a gentle hand on his knee, softening him if only a bit.Â
âEverything okay?â you ask, swiftly changing the subject.Â
San leans in closer to you, pinning you down to your seat without even touching you. âI donât know, is it?âÂ
Woo swats him away from you, having already gotten his fill of his boyfriendâs lecturing outside. He doesnât need him doing it to you too. âSan, please. You told me I had to play nice. That goes for both of us, doesnât it?â
San backs off, as much as he hates to do it. He knows something is up but, at the risk of being a hypocrite, he lets it go. The conversation quickly switches back to discussions about partiesâwho else theyâll invite and whoâll do all the cookingâyet you canât bring yourself to care about any of it. In your mind thereâs only a loop of Hongjoongâs comment.Â
âOh, honey. We thought you were just playing it up. You really are clueless.â

âYouâve had too much to drink. Iâm driving you homeâ Jongho says, stealing Mingiâs car keys.Â
âIâm fine. Trust me.â Mingi makes a half-hearted attempt at stealing them back but heâs in no shape to do it. Heâs swaying back and forth, his cheeks tinted a rosy pink courtesy of those last three shots of soju.Â
Gathered outside of the restaurant, your group lingers by the door, saying your goodbyes and trying to reel in the drunkest among you. Itâs a clear night, the type that's perfect for counting stars, but youâre too busy freezing to revel in the magic of it. Earlier you left your jacket in the car, not thinking much of it until you stumbled out of the restaurant into an actual freezer.
San slips out of his jacket, draping it over your shoulders and giving your arms a quick rub to warm them up. âLook after this for me while I go grab the car.â
As San ventures off to find the car, Woo steps in front of you, coming in close to block the wind.Â
âGoodnight you twoâ Hongjoong sings, winking at you over Wooâs shoulder.Â
You groan and Woo lets out a skeptical âGoodnightâ waving to the others until thereâs only the two of you left. When his gaze drifts back to you, you try not to make eye contact but you canât resist it. His eyes shimmer so gorgeously in the moonlight that itâs impossible not to be taken by them.
Rubbing his hands together, he presses them to your cheeks, squishing them together enough that you look like a little fish. Definitely the cutest fish heâs ever seen. It was his intention to warm you up but he has no clue how hot you burn for him, as hard as you try to fight it.Â
âI donât know if I told you this but you look beautiful tonightâ he says, taking you in from head to toe, âThat dress especially. It's lovelyâ
The dress in question, a black lace up mini dress, is indeed lovely. Youâd ordered it on a whim during a late night shopping session and have been dying to wear it for weeks. When San suggested that you all match for dinner tonight, black on black all the way, you figured there was no time like the present. Itâs more revealing than youâre used to and some part of you questioned if you should wear it or not but Wooâs complement did all that was needed to melt your doubts away.Â
âYou do tooâ you blush, straightening out his tie, âYou look fancy.â
Woo tries to play it off but itâs always much too obvious when heâs flattered. âI try. Youâll always be the prettiest one in the room but I have to try to give you some competition, donât I?âÂ
âAre you attempting to flatter me, Wooyoung?â
Woo moves closer to you, his breath tickling your face as he speaks, âI donât know. Am I?âÂ
Itâs back. That tingle you feel whenever Woo does something like this. You feel it in the tips of your fingers and your toes. Soon itâll spread everywhere else, overtaking you, and thereâs not a single thing you can do about it. The longer he stares at you the worse itâll be. Heâs sealing your fate, damning you to a night spent trying to chase these feelings away.Â
âAre you gonna get in or do you two plan to walk home?â San shouts, honking the horn.Â
You let out a sigh of relief. Youâve been saved. Just barely.Â
âDoes your boyfriend know youâre picking up men from random street corners?â Woo jokes, turning to greet San.Â
San leans over, pushing the passengerâs side door open, âI wonât tell him if you donât.âÂ
Woo laughs, doubling back to grab you, âYou ride in the front tonight, okay, beautiful?â
Itâs a question that isnât a question. You always ride shotgunâthey insist upon itâso you hop into the car before Wooâs tempted to scoop you up and set you in there himself. He will do it.
Tossing himself into the back, Woo slams the door closed, spreading out across the seat as the car hums down the city street. Itâs a quiet, peaceful ride and it only occurs to you after a few minutes that itâs strangely quiet. Thereâs always a debrief after dinner. Woo never misses out on the chance to gossip with you and San lives for it even though heâs fond of pretending he doesnât but tonightâs different. Somethingâs off.
You switch on the radio, hoping that the introduction of a little music will keep your mind from wandering, but San flicks it off the moment that you do.Â
âWhen we came back to the table, what were you talking about?â he asks, catching you off guard. Sanâs not the type to let things go, youâve always known that, but you thought maybe this time you'd luck out. You thought wrong.Â
Woo sits up, combing his dark hair back from his face, âSan, donât start.â
âIâm not startingâ he swears, âIâm just curious. Donât tell me you arenât.â
âWellâŚâ Woo muses, cutting his eyes over at you, âIt would be nice to know. I mean, we donât keep secrets from each other, right?â
You stare out of the window, unable to face either of them. Wooâs right, you donât keep secrets. Maybe a long time ago it wouldâve been forgivable to keep some things to yourself but now? The three of you have gotten so close that it seems almost blasphemous to lie to them.Â
âThe guys think that thereâs something going on between the three of usâŚâ you spill out and youâd swear you sucked all of the air from the car.Â
âOhâŚâ
âOhâŚâÂ
Thatâs all youâre left with. Now you have to look at them. You have to see their faces and know that you havenât upset them. âI told them that there wasnât though! The only thing between us is friendship. Thatâs it.âÂ
âIs that what you told them or is that how you feel?â Woo asks and San does nothing to stop him.Â
You let out a nervous laugh, convinced that heâs messing with you. âWoo, Iâm being serious.â
San takes a deep breath, fingers tapping at the steering wheel as you approach a red light. âSo are we.â
âSoâŚâ Woo says, his words more deliberate this time, âIs that what you told them or is that how you feel?â
Thereâs so much weight to that questionâalmost too much for you to handle. After your breakup you were a total wreck. It felt like someone had torn your heart out and ripped it to pieces. How couldnât it belong to them when they were the ones who put it back together?Â
âWhat if what I feel is wrong?â you ask, the rush of emotion forcing your voice to crack.Â
San holds his hand out to you and you feel a sense of calm wash over you as you take it. He interlocks his fingers with yours, planting slow sweet kisses along the back of your hand. âThereâs nothing wrong with the way you feel, sweetheart.â
Woo caresses your cheek, his chin propped up on the back of your chair as he studies you from the backseat. âWe feel it tooâ he sighs, taken by your beauty, âYouâre an easy girl to fall for.â
âWooâ you giggle, your gaze falling to your lap where your free handâs fidgeting with the lace trim of your dress.Â
âStop it, baby, youâre embarrassing herâ San says, coming to your rescue as usual.
âEmbarrassing her how? She knows how perfect she isâ Woo coos, pinching your cheek, âI tell her everyday.â Settling back into his seat, he digs his phone out of his pocket, flicking it on to scroll through his notifications.Â
San winks at you, raising your hand to his lips to give it one last kiss. He goes back to driving so casually that youâre left wondering if everything that just happened was all in your head. Itâs the strangest thing, how they can be so laid back about a confession thatâs turned your world upside downâchanged everything you knew in an instant. Maybe itâs because they always knew.
When Woo and San first met they knew the two of them belonged together. Their bond was something they never had to question, it simply was the way things were supposed to be. And when you entered the picture it was no different. You moving in only cemented it. You belonged there with themâin their home, in their arms. Theyâd love you, protect you, do everything in their power to put a smile on that beautiful face.
Just like the one you have now. The one Woo keeps catching in the rearview mirror and San keeps seeing out of the corner of his eye. Woo wasnât lying. You are a very easy girl to fall for. Theyâre doing it right now.Â

To anyone who knows you, visiting your apartment makes for a fun game. Your arrival here led to a little redecorating on Woo and Sanâs part. They insisted on moving some things around to make room for what you loved. If you saw a lamp you wanted, if there was a painting you had your eye on, anything at all and it was yours.
So whenever one of the guys is over and a new piece is spotted they like to bet who it belongs to. An easy task at first, itâs grown much more difficult over time. âItâs like youâre becoming the same personâ Yeosang will say in a spooky voice, experiencing what might be actual fear of whoâs becoming a clone of who. He loves you all but multiples of any of you is a recipe for disaster.
Your friendsâ teasing aside, you love the place you call home. This cozy two bedroom is a seamless fusion of the three of you. Itâs your safe place. Where you all run back to for comfort after a long day out in the world. All night itâs sat undisturbed, awaiting your return, and your grand entrance doesnât disappoint.
The apartment door pushes open, flooding the dimly lit apartment with a choppy but spirited rendition of one of Wooâs favorite songs. Heâs been playing it nonstop for the past two weeks and during the last half of the ride home he stole the aux cord to force you both to listen. Blame the alcohol or call it brainwashing but you and San were feeling it tonight. So much that you sang and danced your way from the parking garage, probably waking up the whole neighborhood.Â
Singing a lyric even youâre shocked you remember, you do a little shuffle, kicking your heels off at the door. San does a shimmy behind you, dropping his next to yours. Woo grabs you by the arm, pulling you into his, and you bring San right along with you. Youâve had enough of these late night dance sessionsâmore than any of you will admitâfor your bodies to be totally in sync as you dance around the apartment.
Taking you by the hand, San twirls you in a circle and that last sip of wine kicks in immediately, the room still spinning even after youâve stopped. Luckily Wooâs quick on his feet, catching you from behind.Â
âClumsy much?â he cackles, arms looped around your waist.Â
You spin around, scrunching your face up at him, âDo you think youâre funny? Cause youâre not.â
You feel Sanâs arms close around you from the other side. His muscles make every hug a bear hug and youâve never minded one bit.
âYouâre prettier when you arenât being a bratâ he says, fingertips tracing the immaculate outline of Wooâs cheek.Â
Woo nuzzles into his touch like a cat being scratched at just the right spot. âSo you think Iâm pretty?â
âAnd a bratâ San makes a point of saying, âBut pretty? Definitely.â
Woo and San flirting is nothing new to you, youâve seen it enough that it doesnât even phase you, but this is the first time youâve ever been in the middle of it. Physically wedged between them, feeling their temperatures rise as San cups Wooâs face and leans in for a kiss.
Good manners dictate that you shouldnât stare but you arenât sure what else you can be expected to do. Their lips look so fluffy as they meet. They kiss each other with equal parts desire and restraint. Their longing for each other radiates off of them and soaks into you. But that longingâs not only theirs, itâs yours too. Something new has been awakened inside of you and it has your heart racing.Â
San draws in a breath as their lips part, a light chuckle leaving him at the star crossed look in your eyes. âYou knowâŚâ he hums, his hand finding your throat, âWeâve always wondered what your lips taste like.â His thumb brushes your chin, tilting your head so that your lips graze his. âCan I taste them?â
A floaty âYesâ leaves your lips and time seems to slow to a crawl as he lulls you into a kiss that has the room spinning again. His lips are as soft as they appeared and he pours into you that same desire, that same longing. Restraint? Now thatâs a different story. The deeper he kisses youâhis tongue eagerly exploring your mouthâthe harder it is to hold back.Â
âYou canât have her all to yourselfâ Woo says, tugging Sanâs hair to break the kiss, âI want some of her too.âÂ
You hardly have a chance to recover from Sanâs kiss when Wooâs pressing his lips to yours, making you feel light headed all over again. He floods you with more of the same feelings but thereâs something different about the way that he kisses you. He abandons any hope of containing his desires, his lips feverishly moving against yours. He hums at the taste of you, like youâre his new favorite dessert and all he wants is more.Â
âItâs getting late, Woo. I think we should go to bed. Donât you?â San asks, running his fingers along your hips.Â
Woo nods, nibbling at your bottom lip, âMmhmm.â
They slip away from you, heading for the hallway that leads to their bedroom. How cruel it is of them to just leave you standing here with your head all foggy and your cutest panties soaked through. You lean against the back of the couch, missing the contact but grateful for the chance to catch your breath. With all the air you were losing you mightâve fainted otherwise.Â
âAre you coming?â San calls out, lingering just outside of his bedroom. The light from the bedroom bathes the dark hallway in a warm glow that reflects off of Sanâs chest as he pops the buttons of his shirt open one by one.Â
You cross your legs, hoping to quiet the noise between them thatâs only worsened at the sight of his bare skin. âUh, yeah, I just, uhâŚhave to get out of this dress first.â
âDonât worry, sweetheartâ he smiles, amused by your shyness, âWe can help with that.â
Your body moves as if it has a mind of its own. Each step towards him is so delicate youâd be forgiven for thinking that you floated your way to him. Placing a hand on the small of your back, San ushers you into the bedroom where an already shirtless Woo stands by the dresser fussing with his watch.Â
âSomebody need help with something?â Woo asks, shaking his wrist free of the designer watch.Â
San brushes past you, tossing his own shirt onto the bed. âHer dress. She needs help getting out of it.âÂ
Setting his watch down on the dresser, Woo crosses the room, taking a seat at the edge of the bed. He locks eyes with you, telling you to come to him without having to say it. Thereâs a pull to them. Like gravity holds you to the ground, your heart holds you to them. Youâve always felt it but tonight itâs infinitely stronger. They could call you to the moon and youâd find a way there.
âIt really is a beautiful dressâ Woo says, his hands tracing your figure the moment youâre within reach. He spreads his legs, bringing you in close enough to feel the tip of his nose graze the softness of your belly through the fabric. âIt suits your figure well, not that a body like yours needs much help.â His palms come to rest at your hips, indulgent fingers massaging them as his thumbs ease the fabric higher and higher above your thighs.Â
âYouâre always so sweet to meâ you sigh, running your fingers through his hair, âIf youâre not careful one day itâll all go to my head.âÂ
Pausing to admire the plushness of your thighs, he trails kisses along them, eyes flicking up to meet your gaze. âGoodâ he grins, pushing your dress above your waist. His hands slip back down to your thighs, another pair of hands gripping your dress from behind.Â
âYou should let things get to your head moreâ San whispers into your ear, the defined muscles of his chest flush against your back. Thereâs something else pressed against you too. Something thick and hard poking into the tender flesh of your now exposed ass. Mindlessly you press back into it, breath hitching as you feel his need grow even stronger from your teasing.
âI think you let someone make you forget how special you areâ Woo says, placing a kiss achingly close to your core, âBut thatâs okay. Weâll remind you.âÂ
Wooâs tongue darts out, gliding up and down to taste you through panties already dripping with your essence. Easing your thighs apart, he tucks your panties to the side, a solitary finger petting your slippery entrance. A pulse of warmth ripples through you, pooling right between your legs where the tip of Wooâs tongue has found your clit, twirling around the bundle of nerves so artfully that any remaining ability you had to think straight simply falls away. Looping an arm around your right thigh, he hoists it up, throwing it over his shoulder.Â
Instinctively you look down but gain only the briefest glimpse of his head diving between your thighs before your dress is flying over your head, slinking to the ground beside you. You didnât wear a bra tonight, the dress wouldnât allow you to, and Sanâs grateful for it. Thatâs one less thing between him and those breasts that bounce against your chest so deliciously. He captures them in his hands, feeling the weight of them against his palms.Â
âSo softâ San mumbles, suckling at the fragrant skin of your neck.
Shaping your breasts beneath his touch, he takes two fingers and lightly strokes your nipples. You let out the sweetest, softest moan and he pinches your nipples, beyond pleased at how that moan falls apart on the tip of your tongue. For every moan you let out he pinches them harder, pushing you further, just to see how much you can take or how much you want to take.
Your head falls back and San kisses your neck with even more hunger than before, leaving a trail of marks behind that will no doubt be hickeys by morning. Tears decorate your lashes like constellations, the overstimulation wrecking every part of you.Â
âYouâre clenching like crazy, sweetie. You want something to fill you up?â Woo asks, his finger still stroking your slit, torturing you with the possibilities.Â
You whine, hips attempting to sink down onto his finger, but San grips you tighter, forcing you to straighten up.Â
âYou have such a pretty voiceâ San taunts, dipping a hand between your legs to play with your clit, âUse it. You want us to fill you up or not, baby?âÂ
Your breaths quicken, body trembling as you grab onto Sanâs arm, nails raking his skin. âAh, I want it, Sannie. I want you to fill me up, pretty please.â
âOh, pretty please? How can we say no to that?â Woo grins, gathering your arousal with his fingertips. He eases further onto the bed, lying back to watch how his fingers glisten in the light. âCome here, sweetie.âÂ
San slows his movements, kissing you tenderly as he lets you down gradually before placing you on the bed. You get on your hands and knees without being told, crawling up the bed until San grabs your hips, stopping you when your face hovers just above Wooâs waist.
Tangling his fingers in your hair, Woo tilts your head up, raising his soaked fingers to your honeyed lips. Sanâs hands collide with your plump ass, the sting making you cry out and forcing your lips to part just enough for Wooâs fingers to slip in between them. Youâve never tasted yourself before, itâs something you never dared to try, but as Woo coats your tongue in your own juices you find yourself enjoying it so much that youâre sucking on his fingers, praying for more. Â
Behind you Sanâs rubbing your ass to soothe the sting, his eyes glued to your dripping entrance. Itâs been so long since heâs been with a woman that heâd forgotten how pretty a pussy could be and yours is without a doubt as pretty as they come. Your folds are so soft, your hole so needy and wet, that his cockâs straining against his zipper, aching to have you.Â
âDoes your tongue feel this good when you do everything?â Woo asks when his fingers pop free from your mouth.Â
Placing your hand on the bulge that awaits inches from your face, you let your palm ride the outline of his cock. âLet me show you.â
Wooâs caught off guard by your boldness but it only makes him want you more. Unzipping his pants, thereâs little you have to do to free him from his underwear. His cockâs eager to meet you, throbbing and leaking as you stroke his length. You circle the pink tip with your tongue, dragging it across the top to collect his arousal. Your fingers wrap around the base, keeping him in place as your lips wrap around his cock, stretching to take his thickness.
Youâve seen their cocks before, by accident of course, and somewhere in the filthiest corners of your mind you always wondered what itâd be like to have one in your mouth. Now you know and you love everything about it. How comfortably he fits in your mouth. How you can feel all the finer details of his cock with your tongue. And those noises he makes when the tip hits the back of your throatâmoaning like heâs never felt anything betterâare like music to your ears.
âSan!â you want to cry out when he grabs you by your hips, thrusting his cock into you. Of course you canât talk. With Wooâs cock shoved this far down your throat you can only mumble, drooling down his length while Sanâs pulsing against your walls. For a quick second, quicker than you can blink, your vision goes blurry. When San asked if you wanted to be full he meant full. Bottomed out, stretched to the brink, feeling all of him with nothing left to desire.Â
San leans forward, kissing along your spine. âYou took me so well, baby. Youâre being such a good girl for us tonight.âÂ
He snaps his hips into you again and you arch your back, causing him to slam right into your sweet spot. You tremble and he knows heâs found it, the one spot thatâs gonna make you unravel for him. Youâre in no position to see himâin fact, youâre in the perfect position not toâbut it makes him happy. Heâs determined to make you feel good, every stroke of his cock dedicated to making you lose it.
But he canât begin to ignore how good this feels for him too. Your walls are velvety and smooth, clinging to him as he glides in and out of your tight little hole. Each time he thrusts into you the force travels through your perfect figure, bouncing you right back onto him. San knows heâs bottomed out but somehow you seem to be sucking him in deeper, his abs tightening at the tension already building in his abdomen.Â
âFuck, youâre so wet. Look at youâ San groans, pulling back enough to see the juices trickling out of you.Â
Gripping the blanket with one hand, you try to use all of your strength to prop yourself up but you canât. Sanâs thrusts are too powerful, the pleasureâs too strong, and your bodyâs going limp. Cupping your fluffy cheeks, Woo pets them, pressing his cock even further down your throat. âItâs okay, baby. Weâll take care of you. Just let go.âÂ
Releasing your hold on the blanket, you do your best to let go of itâof everything. Your muscles begin to relax, the full weight of your body falling into their hands. Between them they develop a rhythm, pleasing your holes in perfect synchronicity. Youâre dripping from both ends, clenching and sucking, moaning and whining. Youâre a perfect little mess. Everything they could ever ask for.
Thereâs something ethereal about being between the two of them. Your body feels light, like you're floating somewhere else but youâre right here with them. Not being fucked, being made love to. Being treated like every part of your body is this sacred thing that theyâre so grateful to have.
âI wish you could see yourself right nowâ San sighs, running his hands down your sides, âOur pretty girl.âÂ
Their pretty girl. It does something to you to be called that. It breaks you in a million ways. All the best ones. A swell of energy builds in your body, like a tree growing and spreading its branches out to the furthest reaches of your form.Â
âMmmmâŚâ you whine, heavy lids rising to flash those gorgeous glassy eyes up at Woo.��
San feels your hips stutter and catches you, keeping you steady. âYou ready to cum, baby?â
You nod, puffy lips still too tightly wound around Wooâs cock to make out words. Could you if he even let you?
âThatâs it. Cum all over Sannieâs cockâ Woo coos, his thumb brushing your quivering bottom lip, âJust like that. Good girl.â
Your mind goes blank, void of the faintest thought of anything. Youâre caught in the ecstasy of your high, walls fluttering as you squirt down Sanâs cock. He quickens his thrusts, prolonging your orgasm long enough that when his finally hits youâre still pulling him in, milking him of every drop of cum he has.
Riding out his high, San pushes you forward, forcing your lips to meet the base of Wooâs cock. Woo raises his hips, sloppy movements bringing him closer and closer to the edge until heâs spilling down your throat, filling your cheeks with warm white liquid. He slips out of your mouth and you collapse onto his stomach, gasping for air as you try to recall which planet youâre on.Â
Completely spent, a dizzy San collapses on the bed beside his boyfriend, intentionally leaving enough room for you. âAre you sleeping there tonight?â he teases.
âNoâ you pout, motioning to hit him on the arm but making no impact at all. Itâs like trying to punch someone in a dream. Nothing.Â
San catches your arm, pulling you into the space between them. âAre you usually violent after your orgasms?â
Woo tucks an arm around you, lovingly kissing your shoulder. âNot that weâre complaining. Iâve been known to like a little slap sometimes.â
âIâll remember that next timeâ you promise, responding to his kiss with one of your own to the bridge of his nose. Turning to San, you kiss him on the cheek, giggling at how his face lights up at the sweet gesture.Â
Settling into each otherâs embrace, the chatter quiets but not awkwardly so. Thereâs a sense of peace in each otherâs company. A comfort in this newfound feeling of completion. All this time youâve been together but never quite in the way that any of you wanted. There was always a barrier, something unspoken keeping you from letting your true feelings show, and now thatâs melted away leaving only the three of you together.Â
âBabyâ San whispers after some time has passed. Your headâs resting on his chest and he rubs your cheek, signaling to you that he needs to get up. âIâm gonna go run us a shower, okay?â
He sits up, ready to hop out of bed, when you throw your arms around him and drag him back down. âNo. You whineâ throwing on your best baby face, âYou stay.âÂ
âOh my god. I have two of you nowâ he laughs, too soft for you to resist your pouting.Â
âOh? You have me now?âÂ
Woo props himself up on his elbow, head resting in the palm of his hand. âDonât we?â he asks, drawing on your naked body with his fingertips. The question is playful but thereâs a seriousness to it that canât be ignored.Â
You let the question sink in, realizing for the first time that you donât have to pretend anymore. âYes, you have meâ you sigh, batting your pretty doe eyes.Â
âItâs settled then. Youâre all oursâ San smiles, cuddling back up beside you.
Woo lays back down, nestling his face against your neck. âI like the sound of that.â
Your bodies fit back together like the pieces of a puzzle. Everything about this feels right. Every small moment so special. Thereâs romance in each otherâs breaths. Intimacy in even the faintest brush of your skin against theirs as you shift in the bed. You could stay here forever. And you intend to.

Arenât you embarrassed? Part 2: P.S
NonIdol!Toxic!Fratboy!SeonghwaxAfab!Reader
HAH I wrote this faster than I was expecting! But thank you @luffypants, @cloudysannie, and @krystalcat for requesting a part 2. I feel like we got some justice!
Taglist: @n1nme4r @e3ellie Let me know if you would like to be a part of the taglist too.
Cw: Explicit language, mean Hwa again... some talks of sexual content (it's like one sentence), Jongho is thrown in here too!
Part 1
Masterlist | Ateez Masterlist
"The number you have dialed is unavailable please try again later" "What the fuck?" Seonghwa tried to call you the next day only to be met with the automated message "What's wrong Hwa? Your booty call didn't answer for once?" Wooyoung cackled at Seonghwa's confused expression. He tried again "The number you have dialed is unavailable please try again later" "No what the actual fuck. What is she doing?" He was frustrated, mentally and sexually. How come you weren't answering? "Is it going straight to voicemail? She might've turned her phone off, ya know with exams and stuff coming up, She might be in the library" Yunho said "No no she ALWAYS answers" Seonghwa tried to call you again. Same message. "Text her. duh" and so he did but what he got in response filled him with anger "She blocked me. She actually blocked" Seonghwa couldn't believe what he was looking at but the green bubble was starting right back at him "HAH" "No way" Wooyoung and Yunho both responded at the same time. This isn't how it goes. Seonghwa is ALWAYS the one who does the blocking, not the other way around. Wooyoung's laughing ceased when Seonghwa stormed out, slamming the door behind him. He needed to find you.
"Thanks for helping me study today (y/n) I really appreciate it" Yuna smiled brightly at you. You both had economics together and she was nervous for the exam and you needed a distraction from... him. "It's no problem, the exam is next week so let me know if you want to study again" You smiled back at her "Of course. I'll see you tomorrow" You waved at her as she walked away. Your smile dropped when you saw the last person you wanted to talk to. Turning quickly, you made a hasty retreat across campus so you could hide in your dorm. But fate had other plans for you. "Ah not so fast" Your breath hitched when you felt a strong grip on your wrist "Oh! Hey Seonghwa. Sorry I really can't talk right now I have to get to class." you say nervously trying to free yourself "Don't care." He spits out before dragging you to an empty table in the courtyard "You blocked me" it comes out as a statement more than a question.
You look down at your lap getting anxious under his intense gaze. You give him a weak nod, biting your lip "Mhm. Why?" you opened your mouth to respond but nothing came out so you opted to shrug instead. He didn't like that. "Come on. Use your words. You're a big girl yeah?" Seonghwa was not the patient type, never has been, and never will be so when you continued to look down at your lap he snapped a little "For someone so smart you look dumb as fuck right now. I asked you a question and you can't even answer me" his voice was getting louder and louder with each word causing the few others that were in the vicinity to turn to the two of you. You slapped your hands on the table in front of you finally having enough of this, of him "I hate the way you treat me and I'm not doing this anymore. You're a piece of shit Park Seonghwa and I quite frankly don't understand how you have any friends, so yeah I blocked you. I don't need you, I deserve better." Your words came out a little louder than you wanted but you needed him to hear you "Treat you like what? A fuck buddy? That's all you are. You have nothing to offer other than that. You have nothing to offer anyone except your body. You've got it all wrong baby. I'm the best you're gonna get" Tears welled up in your eyes and you grabbed your stuff before standing "Bye Seonghwa" "YOU'LL COME BACK TO ME JUST WATCH, they always do" He yelled at your figure as you disappeared from view
Seonghwa, Hongjoong, and Yeosang sat on the couch watching some show Hwa didn't care about when there was a sudden knock at the door. He looked at the other two who looked glued to their spots "Oh don't worry I'll get it" he rolled his eyes and stood up, the pair opting to smile in response. He swings open the door about to tell off whoever it was "We don't want whatever the fuck you're sell- oh" He let out a quick laugh and a smirk exploded on his face when he saw you in one of your cute little skirts "I see you decided to come back to me huh? I'm too good for you to forget. It's okay, I can forget all about our little argument the other day" he felt his pride swelling as he held his arm out for you. Letting out a scoff, you cross your arms at the arrogant boy in front of you "Oh please, I'm not here for you" you roll your eyes at him. "Move Hwa she's here for me" Jongho. Seonghwa felt like his head was going to explode. Hongjoong and Yeosang sat frozen, expressions matching each other, shock. All three of them didn't know what to think. Seonghwa had you wrapped around his finger for over a month and now you were here with their youngest member.
When it was all over you came bounding down the stairs with Jongho's arm wrapped around you as he walked you to the door. You stopped and turned to Seonghwa who sat stewing on the couch. With a pout adorning your lips you spoke to him for the last time "I guess you're not as good as you think" you spat out before turning to give Jongho a quick kiss and going on your merry way. Seonghwa let out a scoff and he couldn't stop himself "She was faking it. Just so you know" He was spiteful and a part of him felt bad considering it was Jongho of all people. "Oh yeah? Seemed pretty real to me. especially when I did this thing with my fingers, had her gushing all over them" he had seen through Seonghwa's jealous words "I don't know man, I think I would know her best" and he did but because he knew you so well he knew that you were in fact NOT faking it.

The Seventh Minute - KHJ

When Hongjoong came to your life, he made promises he promised to keep. Turns out your lover is a powerful entity, and the promises he made to you are not the only ones he aims to keep. That includes the promise of your death.
(This is like âMy Demon', but if the main female lead made a wish instead.)

The Mornings had become moments you dreaded.
Opening your eyes has now started noticeably becoming more painful each morning. Maybe it's because you've started becoming more aware of your surroundings. Of yourself. Small movements like blinking, taking your first breath once you're conscious. Like your toes twitching as your body roars to life like an engine. Like a car getting started. Like the way you stare at the ceiling, unable to move even though you know you should have gotten up by now.
You never would have realized that this is what it would have come to. No gut feeling, no random sign from the universe. Nothing. When he told you he would be by your side, you believed him. When he told you he would make sure that he protected you, you believed him. When he said he would grant you one wish, and that it would come true, you didn't believe him. Besides, what kind of wish would get you out of the situation you call your life? What kind of wish would get you away from your family?
Wrapped in the throes of pleasure that night, he asked you to make a wish.
âJ- Ah!â On his knees in front of you with your legs wrapped around his waist, he grunted. He tenderly held your waist as he thrusted inside you, your walls reacting by squeezing him, making him grunt again. Your half opened eyes watched him as he looked down upon where your bodies were connected, his hair shielding his eyes. He suddenly fell to your naked chest, grabbed your arms and wrapped them around his muscular shoulders. You shuddered at the contact.
âMake a wish.â You were caught up on the noises your lover was making that you almost missed the words he uttered. âH- huh? Make a- hng!â A particular hard thrust cut you off as he noticed how absent you were. How he loved that. How absent from reality you looked when you were with him. How he was able to make you forget your problems for a while. It is these moments where he wished he could give you everything. That's why he, without thinking, told you to make a wish.
As his movements sped up, so did your panting. He had alternated to hard grinds rather than thrusting, and it's like you could feel his soul. Your grip around his shoulders tightened. His normally cold hands around your waist felt warm at that moment. It is when he pushed his head deeper into your neck that you came, subtly shaking as you did so. You blacked out for a moment not realizing that your actions prompted your lover's orgasm. He relaxed on top of you.
You opened your eyes slightly.
âI wish I didn't have to take over the burden of my family's business.â
Hongjoong lifted his head and looked at the calendar by your door.
26th of February.
Even as you lay on your bed staring at your ceiling, none of the events that transpired next could be foreshadowed, you thought. You didn't think you would have even lived for ten more years from that moment. But you severely underestimated Hongjoong's ability to keep his promises. He said he would make sure you lived. That you would be happy as long as he was in your life. That you would thrive. Your lover tends to spew nonsense sometimes. So then, you brushed off his comments.
And then he told you he was a Demon. You were 21, two years since you met him, one since he asked you to make that wish.
In that year, a lot had changed. Ever since the chairwoman died, there had been an uproar among your âsiblingsâ about who was to inherit the title. The will was read a couple of days after she was laid to rest and it turned out she had left the majority of her assets to you, including the responsibility of foreseeing activities throughout her companies. The title of chairwoman. Needless to say, Seungcheol, your supposed older brother, was furious.
âApparently, they decided to appoint Seungcheol after all, since he was deemed more suited.â You told Hongjoong one day, as you both lay on your couch in your loft. His hand was rubbing circles on your shoulder as you lay on his chest. The room was dark, save for the light coming from the city through the floor-to-ceiling window. âNo wonder he was happy this morning.â
Hongjoong smiled softly as he heard you recount the day's tales. âWell good. That's one extremely huge weight off your shoulders, right?â You both chuckled.
âIs there something you want to tell me?â You mused. You figured Hongjoong did something, as your lawyers didn't bother to put up much of a fight with this case. You assumed they simply matched your energy, not wanting to be part of the arguments the Chois were struggling to put up. At least with Seungcheol being the chairman, every complaint about the company chains was none of your business. At least you hoped so.
âWhat makes you think I had something to do with anything?â He uttered, still smiling.
âAha! You see?â You suddenly sat up, smiling. âI didn't say you did anything, I just asked if you had something to tell me. Seems like you actually do.â
He shifted his hands and folded them under where his head lay. Still smiling. âYou didn't catch on?â
âCatch what?â
He then turned his head and looked behind you. You narrowed your eyes at him and looked behind you. Turns out he was looking at a bookshelf. On that shelf, was a huge green book with a cross symbol on it. On the intersection where the parts of the cross met was a huge green gem. The gem sometimes glowed. You read the book secretly sometimes when Hongjoong was out of the house. Initially you thought that he was just part of a cult, which scared you a bit but didn't surprise you as some high class people were in cults. You had been afraid to ask him what the words in the book meant, especially the parts that weren't in English or any understandable language.
You turn your head towards him. âThe first page of the book says âdemonâ.â
He was now staring at you.
âI'm a demon.â
âWhy do you talk to me like I'm a fool sometimes.â You slightly smiled.
âI know you're not a fool. And I'm simply stating the truth.â One of his hands left the back of his head. He trailed the one up your clothless thigh, still looking in your eyes. You shuddered a bit but kept your eyes on him, slightly narrowed. Your lover was a bit of a sadist sometimes, so damned are you if you let him know what an effect he has on you.
He traced his eyes down your body. He loved the (his) buttoned shirt you wore. The reason you decided to wear it instead of your clothes, he didn't fully understand. Especially with nothing else but underwear. He only knew that he loved how you looked wearing it, and would be willing to sacrifice his clothes if you kept making him feel like you do.
He too, suddenly sat up and was face to face with you. You shuddered again.
âWhen I asked you to make the wish, do you remember?â He tucked some of your long hair behind your ear. âYou wished that you didn't have to deal with all this drama.â
âYes?â You drawled.
âI took that away. I made your wish come true."
âYou made my wish come true?â
âHmm. I did, princess.â
He didn't think you understood the weight of what he said. You were so absent that you weren't even taking him seriously. He hated to admit it, but he liked the look in your eyes, the look you give him when he pays attention to you. When he's telling you important information but you're just giving him a look that has him feeling like he has butterflies. Only for him.
Your smile grew as you took your bottom lip to your teeth, lightly biting down. Hongjoong took his thumb to your lip and released it from the harsh confines of your teeth. He leaned in and took it to his teeth instead. The hand that was on your thigh reached around you to grab your ass and pull you towards him, making out with him in the darkness. It was moments like these that felt like a dream. That felt like you were delusional sometimes, like you were a schizophrenic conjuring up a reality you wished you lived in instead.
You pulled away a bit. âI'm not schizophrenic, right?â
Hongjoong was caught unaware with your words and suddenly burst out laughing. âNo princess, you're not schizophrenic.â
âJust making sure.â You smiled. You dove back in for that kiss, very aware of the fact that you were turned on. You lightly grinded on him and that gave him a hint. You were suddenly under him as he rolled you over on the couch, your legs still around his waist. He tested you by rolling his hips onto yours while keeping his eyes on you, and you thought that he was very sexy. He had pretty eyes. He slightly smirked when he noticed the absent look in your eyes again.
Just for him.
You were already moaning softly as you struggled to keep eye contact as your eyes threatened to shut. You didn't want to miss any moment.
You didn't want to miss him.
âI love you.â You uttered up at him, staring at him like he created you.
He smiled and dove in to kiss you, and that was your answer.
Your mornings were usually spent with Hongjoong. When you would wake up the next day ready to live another day with him, usually after a night that left your entire body sore. You would almost always wake up to find him staring at you. You would weirdly look at him and lightly slap him sometimes and he would look all shocked and go, âHey! Do you know who you've just slapped? I am a demon!â And then you would laugh loudly and give him little kisses to calm him down.
Your mornings were usually spent with Hongjoong, when you would make breakfast for the both of you and scold him that he should learn to make food on his own. He would sneer at you and say demons don't make breakfast. You would look at his audacious ass and say that you were done making food for him. If you were in a good mood, he would take you on the kitchen counter with little mercy and joke that you were lesser than him. He would hold your waist while thrusting into you from behind and say, âYou wanna try talking back to a demon again? Huh?â and make you come quicker than the toast would be ready. However, if you were in a bad mood, he would come up behind you and hug you, hands heavy on your waist, claiming he was moral support. You would simply roll your eyes as you continue to fry the eggs.
Your mornings with Hongjoong were always chaotic. You never caught a break. But who needs a break with Hongjoong around? He was a light, a comfort, a challenge. He was your favorite person as you didn't like that many people you knew. Ten years of happiness and laughter, worries and arguments, little ailments and relaxations. You did it all.
This morning however, like the past months, weren't as happy. You got up from bed. Alone. No arms around you, no breathing down your neck, no kisses down your spine, nothing. You took the small container that was beside you on the desk and took out two pills, which you swallowed dry. You looked down the container in what seemed like slow motion to you and noticed only three pills remain. You didn't think about refilling the container as it wasn't necessary. Besides, depression wasn't going to be what would cause your death after all.
You got up and slightly stretched, looking through your bedroom window. The city was alive but it was quiet around you. You might have been depressed but you were currently content. Like a break in a symphony before the last short piece played. Like an imperfect cadence in a piece of music that indicated the end was near, but not quite yet. Like you were standing on the road, but you could see a sign saying âyou have arrived.â Only you weren't clear on what the destination was.
You willed yourself to cry these past couple of months to no avail. You thought it was because you had already had it in you, the will to die. But the will to die was taken away. He promised he would make you happy, he did. He told you he would stay by your side, he did. Except now though, when you had chased him away a couple of days ago after an argument you had. Your imminent death hasn't been easy on him. You didn't want him to see you like this. All depressed and empty. You missed him though, that was the truth.
You walked to the calendar by your bedroom door.
25th February.
You closed your eyes and deeply inhaled before walking out of your room, unaware of the presence at the corner with tired eyes. The presence that has always watched you when you woke up. The presence that has never left your side, because he promised you that he wouldn't.

A/N: h-heyyyyy *chuckles nervously* Everyone say welcome back tumblr user itsbeeble! Everyone say thank you @from-izzy and @sanaxo-o for distracting me while I was writing and to ally for supporting me through a very very very very long writers block hahahahhahahhahhahha....haha...ha

Choi San, despite popular belief, was not an idiot. Not really at least. Unfortunately for him, he seemed to fit most of the stereotypes of a college athlete.
He was fit, that was without a doubt and he would not deny it. Six days a week in the gym after football practice did him good. Toned arms that hardly fit any of his shirts, the fabric stretching and nearly tearing every time he got dressed. Thick thighs that bulged against every pair of jeans or sweatpants, noticeable from the stands on game day and having girls swooning as he walked. Not to mention his ass. Had he not built up a brick wall called âconfidenceâ the comments made about his ass would have had him blushing and covering his cheeks rather than smirking.Â
God, that smirk. He flashed it casually to anyone who looked at himâ students, professors, the crowd, the opposing team, the cheerleaders. It was a near unfortunate bonus that he was just as hot as he was fit. That stupid chiselled jaw, the dimples, and his tall frame. Itâs irritating.Â
At least, itâs irritating for you.Â
See, being the supposedly stupid captain of the football team came with many stereotypes.Â
Dating the captain of the cheerleading squad was just one more, even if no one knew.Â
No one important, that is.

âSannie,â Yewon was practically hanging off Sanâs arm, her manicured nails lightly scratching the tan skin. The sing-song tone of her voice made you cringe, the noise scraping at your eardrums and creating a dull throb in your already aching skull. Your back was turned to the pair, but San could tell you were likely trying to grow eyes in the back of your skull to watch the interaction. That stupid, casual smirk of his was trained on the newer cheerleader, her eyes big and filled with faux innocence. âHow did you get so big?â
A poorly stifled snort from another girl on the squad, Sihyeon. A good friend of yours who knows exactly what goes on between you and San behind closed doors, and knows exactly what heâs planning. That little snort has you turning the daggers you call eyes onto her, the girls around her shifting uncomfortably at the now tense energy around you.Â
Jealousy. Thatâs what Sanâs goal is and you know it. Heâs pulled this trick several times before, trying to egg you on and expose the relationship that youâd chosen to hide. So heâd play stupid, that same act that everyone believes is a poor reality. The dumb, hot captain of the football team who canât seem to get a girlfriend despite the girls falling at his feet for a moment of his attention. All he wants is for you to finally get jealous enough to rip that girl off his arm and finally stake your claim publicly.Â
Unfortunately, youâre patient.Â
Fortunately, so is he.
He smirks down at her, his arm grazing the skin of her lower back that her top doesnât cover. You can practically hear her breathing stutter, and your grip on your pom poms tightens.
âNever skip a day at the gym, never skip practice, throw a good party on the weekends.â His answer isâŚlackluster at best. Your nose wrinkles, knowing he did it on purpose. The idiotic responses are for you, in hopes that youâll turn around and yell at him for pretending to be a moron even though heâs one of the best students in the Kinesiology department.Â
âYouâll have to coach me through a workout one day,â Yewon grabs Sanâs arm tighter when she sees you turn to face the pair.Â
âMaybe I should take you up on that.â San isnât looking at her, not even a brief glance down to acknowledge that sheâs there. No, his eyes are trained on you. Daring you to say something, anything.Â
Do it.
You know you want to.
Stake the claim.
You know Iâm yours. Why not let everyone else know?
You open your mouth to speak, and he quirks an eyebrow at you. Do it, do it, do it.
âKim Yewon,â the words are laced with venom and she goes rigid. âBreak ended ten minutes ago.â
âI was talking to Sannie!â She glared at you, and you almost laughed.Â
âSannie,â you mocked, watching a pout form on your boyfriendâs lips, âhas his own practice to get to.â
âOur practice ended half an hour ago.â He argued, toeing the limits of how far he can push you before you finally break.Â
âThen leave.âÂ
âI donât want to. I wanna stay and talk with Yewon.â He challenged. Sihyeon grimaces behind you, watching as San digs himself a grave not even he can climb out of.Â
The two of you stare each other down for a few moments, a mix of emotions running through you. You know that heâs challenging you and trying to get a rise out of you, but you know better. You know you canât challenge him like that without exposing your relationshipâ the one thing in your life that you want to keep to yourself for just a little while longer.Â
Youâre the first to cave, your shoulders slumping just enough to be noticed by San, and his eyebrows knit together.Â
âDo what you want. Practice is done for the day.â

The two-story rental house you share with Sihyeon and a few other girls from the squad is eerily silent. The air conditioning and the sound of you quietly walking around your room are the only things keeping you from the thoughts in your head.Â
Did San take Yewon up on the âofferâ?
Did you take it too far?
Should you have just caved for him?
What if heâs sick of this? Of the secret meet-ups and the acting?
Something hits the window as youâre walking past it, and a loud squeak escapes you. You whip your head around just as, what you now realize is, a rock hits the window. Not a large rock. Small, just enough to be noticeable and visible to the naked eye as it tumbles back down to the front lawn. Another rock as you take the two steps you need in order to peer down and see San with a pile of rocks on the ground next to him, a fourth in his hand ready to be thrown if needed. He grins when he sees you, tossing the rock up and down a couple of times before taking aim.
You fling your window open, scowling down at him before he winds his hand back.Â
âDonât you fucking dare, Choi San.â He pouts up at you, but all you do is glare.Â
âHow else was I supposed to get your attention?â
âRing the doorbell, dumbass. Like a normal person.âÂ
Much to your annoyance, San just grins and drops the rock. âWhereâs the fun in that?â
You lean against the window frame, arms folded as you run your tongue over your lip in thought. âShouldnât you be with Yewon?âÂ
You can see Sanâs nose wrinkle at the thought, but he doesnât respond. Instead, he makes his way to the tree heâd been using as a sort of ladder to get into your room. Heâd been doing that since you met, since the first time you ever slept together. Heâd never been a fan of the wholeâŚfront door tactic. Your father would probably hate him. Heâd think San was no good, a troublemaker if anything. You would disagree.Â
Maybe your relationship was more stereotypical than you were willing to believe.Â
Sanâs shoes are louder than either of you had expected as he jumps down from the tree, grimacing at the noise he makes.
âIf my neighbors didnât know any better, the police wouldâve been here by now.â You shuffle back as your boyfriend tucks awkwardly through your window. His large frame pushes against the frame, the vinyl creaking against him as it struggles to stay in one piece. His neck cranes to look up at you, his feet hitting the ground with another loud thump.
âGlad they know better then.â He pushes a hand through his hair, the silky black strands falling loosely over his forehead in spite of his best efforts.Â
A moment of silence falls between you, and you take this time to sit at your dresser. Makeup wipes and cleansers are scattered in front of you from when youâd made a weak attempt at distracting yourself from, well, the problem youâd created.Â
San sits on your bed behind you, watching every move you make. He sits quietly, like a child in a timeout chair. He waits, letting you make the calls. You never knew why he started doing thatâ started letting you take the lead in every argument, even the petty nonsensical ones.
âYou never answered my question,â your eyes are trained on him through the mirror. He presses his lips together, loosely folding his legs.
âAre you really that upset?â The question is innocent enough, but it brings back the previous irritation from the field.Â
âWhy wouldnât I be? My boyfriend is openly flirting with other people knowing that Iâll get pissed off. You flaunt that knowledge like itâs your fucking birthright or whatever. Do you really think Iâm not gonna get upset about it?â You put your moisteurizer down with more force than youâd wanted to, shaking your dresser a bit. San flinches at the sudden noise, gnawing at his lip in thought.Â
âIâm sorry, Y/N.â
âAre you, though?â Your eyes are narrowed as you turn around in your chair. A momentary pause as San lets the words sink in. Heâs patient. So patient with you, even when you feel you donât deserve it. âYou act like you donât give two shits about our relationship, and then show up at my fucking window acting like nothing is wrong and that the world is all sunshine and fucking rainbows. You go out of your way to piss me off, make me angry at my own squad, just for what? So you can get a good fuck at the end of the day?âÂ
Sometimes you forget that, while Choi San is patient, that patience runs thin.Â
He isnât stupid. He knows that this outburst, this frustration, isnât just at him, but the more you spit your venom at him, taking your anger and misdirecting it, the more his patience begins to run out. You can see it in the clenching of his fists, the ticking of his jaw, and the glare in his eyes.Â
Unfortunately, youâre far too lost in your mind that you canât see the way San rises from his seat on your bed and takes a step toward you. Then another, and another, and suddenly heâs right in front of you.Â
âSometimes I think that the idiotic front that you put on isnât exactly a front at allââ You spin around, expecting him to still be on your bed. A loud yelp escapes you when you come face-to-face with his well-built frame. âJesus Christ, San! Why the fuck are you right behiââ
âShut up,â he says it so simply, so calmly that you almost think heâs not being serious.Â
âDonât fucking tell me what to do!â You snarl, and San scoffs.Â
âDo you even realize why weâre in this situation to begin with?â
âYeah, you were flirting with my fuckingââ
âDonât blame me for your fucking problems,â San spits out. Your eyes widen and you take a step back. âIâve been going along with this stupid fucking secret relationship for who knows how long, and all Iâve gotten in return is you bitching about me wanting you to just come out with it!âÂ
âYou know I want to keepââ
âYou want to keep your love life private,â San interrupts and flings his hands into the air. âI get it. I understand, Y/N. That doesnât make it suck any less.âÂ
âIt isnât justââ you huff, pressing your hand to your forehead in a poor attempt at calming yourself down. âIt isnât just the fact that I want to keep us private, Sannie. I justâ I donâtââÂ
Your eyes are welling up with tears, and you blink a few times to force them back. San pulls you toward him, his hand practically engulfing yours as he tugs you onto his lap. Your legs are on either side of his, and he laces his fingers with yours, resting them between the two of you.Â
âI canât help you if I donât know whatâs wrong, sweetheart.â He murmurs, rubbing the back of your hand with his thumb. âLet me help you.â
You shake your head, and his chest rises and falls with a quiet sigh. âIâm justâ Iâm just so sick ofâ of everything.âÂ
San presses a little kiss to your forehead, tugging one of his hands free from yours and lacing it through the strand of hair on the back of your head. He doesnât move for a few moments, placing another kiss on your forehead and then another. He waits for you to calm yourself and gather your thoughts.Â
âCanââ your voice is quieter, a bit more shaky than it was just moments ago. âCan you kiss me?â San smiles, his lips still just millimeters from your forehead.
âTell me whatâs wrong first.â Your hips shift against his, and you drop your head against the column of his neck. Your breath is warm against his skin, and the scent of your shampoo begins to flood his senses. His hand tugs at your hair, drawing your attention back to him. âYouâre absolutely insatiable, you know that? Tell me whatâs wrong or Iâm leaving.â
You canât fight the little whine thatâs pulled out of you. Not that you wanted to. You wanted him. You wanted Choi San so badly that it hurt.
âI wasâ I was mad because I didnât wantâŚâ You can hardly form a sentence, too distracted by the gentle tugs at your hair and the way Sanâs other hand has drifted to your hip, drawing circles underneath the fabric of your sleep shorts.Â
âWhat didnât you want, sweetheart? Tell me.â San pulls your head away from his neck, holding back a grin at the near-glazed look in your eyes.Â
âI didnât want to be part of anymoreâŚstereotypes. We already fit so many, I justâI just wanted to hold that one back for a bit longer.â You whine, your lips falling into a pout that San just wants to kiss away. Instead, he smiles.Â
âWas that so hard, pretty girl? So much fighting just for a silly little reason like that?â Your pout deepens, and he sighs. âYou know I love you, right?â
âYeahâŚâ
âAnd nothing is gonna change that, no matter how many stereotypes we fall under. You understand?â
âYes,â San smiles, stroking your hip and squeezing it.
ââYesâ what, baby?â Your eyes are glossy now, your lips parted slightly in your daze.
âYes sir.â

Despite Sanâs patience running thin, he always recovers it with ease. Patience is what heâs known for in class, on the field, in your relationship, and in your bedroom.Â
He can edge you for hours, cooing at the way you beg for him, beg for that sweet release, for just one more finger, please just one more.
âPretty girl,â he strokes your cheek, letting his hand slide down your spine to rest against the small of your back. Youâre writhing beneath him, trying desperately to bring your hips up just enough for him to hit that sweet spot inside of you but failing miserably. âI donât think you can handle anymore.âÂ
Only two of his fingers sit inside you, but itâs more than enough to stretch you out, to provide you with the stimulation you need to go right over the edgeâ
âSanâsir, please.â Your hands grip the pillow beneath your head tightly, nails digging into the fabric so tight youâre afraid it might tear. âPlâPlease lemme cum, I promâpromise Iâll bâbe good. Please,â Youâre nearly hysterical, fat tears rolling down your cheeks as he plunges his fingers in and out of you, his thumb dancing over your clit but not quite giving you that extra stimulation. Not that you need it with the way he grinds the tips of his fingers into the spongy spot just within his reach.Â
âYou wanna cum that bad?â San leans down, his chest pressed against your back and his lips right up against your ear. âYouâre gonna have to work harder than that. Beg for it. Scream. I want everyone to know that youâre mine.âÂ
Patience is a virtue you havenât quite learned yet. What you have learned? Youâre extraordinarily good at making Choi San cave for you.Â
âSir,â you plead, pushing your hips back against his hand just enough. Thereâs a burning feeling in your stomach, the knot winding tighter and tighter until you almost canât take it. âPlease. Iâm so soâsorry for yelling. Please Iâve been so good for you. I can take it. Please let me take it. Want you sâso bad. Want you to maâmake me cum. Want you, Sannie! Please, please make me cum. Want you to fuck me so bad, pleâplease!âÂ
For a moment, Sanâs hand stills inside you. For a moment all you can hear is your desperate whining and your boyfriend attempting to steady his breathing.Â
Then heâs ripping his fingers out of your sopping cunt and rolling you onto your back. His frame looms over you in a way that has your body quivering with anticipation, eyes searching yours forâŚsomething that you canât figure out in your lust-filled haze.Â
âSuch a pretty girl,â San murmurs, pressing his palm at the base of your stomach, one hand nearly covering the expanse of it. âSo small, so good for me. So good for Sannie, hm?â
âYes!â You grab his wrist, nails digging so tightly youâre afraid you might draw blood. âPlease, wanna be so good for you Sannie!âÂ
He sighs, prying your hand away from his wrist and pinning it to the mattress. âYou say that, but I donât know if I believe you.âÂ
A sob pushes out of you, your back arching into him. He catches you before you can lower back down to the bed, his arm looping around you to keep you pressed against his chest while he sits back. Youâre right where you startedâ on the bed, straddling him with tears running down your cheeksâ but this time youâre both completely undressed. You can feel his cock pressing against your thigh, little twitches being the only indication of any impatience. You try to roll your hips against him, trying anything to get that friction back. San clicks his tongue and shakes his head.Â
âNaughty girl,â he murmurs, stilling your hips with one hand. âThought you said youâd be good for me.â
âIâI will!â You grab his shoulders, leaning your face up to his, trying desperately to kiss himâ to do anything that might sway his decision. âIâm sorry, sir! I promise I justâ I just wantedââ
âI know,â he kisses you gently, smiling softly, deceptively. âI know you just wanted to cum all over your Sannieâs lap. Been edginâ you for so long, havenât I? You deserve to cum for being soâŚpatient.â You let out a relieved sob as San releases your hip and grabs his cock. He guides it through your folds briefly, soaking it in your arousal and pumping his hand up and down his shaft to thoroughly lubricate it. âYouâre gonna prove to me that you can be good, baby. Okay?â
âYes, yes Sannie!â You lift your hips just enough for him to align his tip with your entrance, almost starting to cry again at the feeling. He helps you sink, knowing that two fingers werenât enough for you. It never is. No matter how much he fucks you, itâs always a tight fit for you, not that you ever complain. You never complain about how big San is compared to you. Heâs caught you drooling over this size of his dick more times than he can count, usually trying to talk you out of riding him out of fear of hurting you. But not today. No, today heâs giving you exactly what you wanted.Â
âGo ahead, sweetheart.â He encourages. âFuck yourself dumb on Sannieâs cock.â
The look in your eyes becomes almost animalistic. You shift your body a bit, steadying your hands on his shoulders, and lift your hips until just his tip remains inside of you. San can feel the way youâre clenching around his tip, knows youâre doing it intentionally, and he lets his head fall back.Â
When you sink intohim for the first time, you emit a strangled gasp, your eyes rolling into the back of your head and your nails digging into your loverâs shoulders.
âFâFuck Sannie!â You bite down on your lip, lifting your hips again and dropping back down. âMmphâfuck youâre too big!â
âYou wanted this, sweetheart,â San tells you, rolling his head to the side and groaning as you continue to struggle with riding him. You try so, so hard to build a steady rhythm, but your legs are shaking and your breath is already gone. âI thought cheerleaders were supposed to have good stamina.â
âNoâNot when their boyfriend has a fâfucking huge dick!â You cry out, giving up and grinding your hips against his. The steady rolling of your hips relieves the burn just a bit, and you moan as the tip of his cock grinds into that spot with more strength than his fingers did just minutes ago. âFuck, I can feâfeel you in my stomach!âÂ
San lifts his head at that, a new hunger in his eyes and he leans you back. You slow your hips at the sudden movement, furrowing your brows while you watch him. He kisses his teeth and places a firm slap on the side of your hip.Â
âI didnât tell you to stop, did I?â He grips your hip tightly in both hands, forcing you to keep riding him. âKeep going, sweetheart. Keep going until I tell you to stop.âÂ
You do, your hips picking up a steady pace with the help of one of his hands to guide you along. His other hand presses against your stomach, and you hear his breathing hitch.
âBaby,â he takes your hand from his shoulder, squeezing it gently as he guides it to where his hand was previously. âFeel right here.âÂ
You hesitate just a moment, and he looks down at you, smiling encouragingly.Â
Then you feel it.Â
The bulge in your stomach where the tip of his cock reaches as far as it can possibly go.Â
âYou feel that, baby?â San presses your hand down and you both let out a simultaneous moan at the feeling. The white-hot pleasure builds back up in the pit of your stomach, the loosened knot returning with renewed fervor and you know San can tell. You know that heâs close too, his hips thrusting up to meet yours halfway. âGod, you feel so good. How did I get so fucking lucky, huh?â
You donât respond. You canât respond. The pleasure is blinding. All you can feel, see, hear, and smell is San. He clouds your thoughts, your senses, your very being. The pleasure is winding up, drawing that knot tighter and tighter and tighterâ
âCâCumming, San!â You arch into him, and he holds your hip to keep you moving. âFuck, fuck Iâm cumming!â
âI know, pretty girl,â he grunts, his thrusts stuttering. âFuck, Iâm close. Keep going baby, wanna cum with you.â
Your hips are moving slower, your muscles burning and you canât stop yourself from forcing San back until heâs laying against the bed. Your hands find purchase on his chest, sweat beading on your forehead with the effort to keep moving, to keep riding him until youâre both forced over the edge youâd been begging for.Â
Sanâs thumb drifts across your hip, finding purchase on your swollen clit and rubbing sloppy circles into it until youâre sobbing again, sobbing his name and begging for that sweet release.Â
When it hits you, itâs blinding. Stars spark behind your eyes, your head tossed back and sweet cries pulled from the depths of your chest. His hips thrust into yours one more time, his eyes trained on how you arch your back and twitch with your release, and then heâs cumming. Thick globs of cum fill you up to the brim, seeping out from the seams of your cunt and mixing with your release. You let yourself collapse against his chest, practically gasping for air and shaking from the effort of riding him.
âYou finally got what you wanted,â San murmurs, resting one of his hands on the small of your back as his cock softens in you. âYou finally got to ride me.â
âNeverâŚnever doing that again,â you mutter back, placing a kiss on the base of his neck. âAbsolutelyâŚnot.â

âI canât believe youâre actually letting this happen.â San is grinning ear to ear as he drives you to campus, his free hand holding yours tightly. You purse your lips, refusing to admit defeat.
âThis doesnât mean I want everyone knowingââ
âBullshit,â San interrupts with a grin. âYou want everyone to know that I bagged the hottest cheerleader in the world.â
âYou didnât bag shit, Choi San. And if you say that you âbaggedâ me to anyone on the football team,â your eyes turn to daggers as you jab a finger into his shoulder, âI will end your bloodline where it stands. Your mom can say âbyeâ to any chances of a grandchild from us.â
San grimaces, but itâs replaced by a radiant smile as he pulls into the parking garage closest to your building. âYou can make as many threats as you want, sweetheart, but you and I both know you wonât risk that. You love getting fucked after dealing with Yewon every day.âÂ
He opens your door for you, beaming as he helps you out of his car.Â
âIâll make you a deal, sweetheart.â
âWill you now?â Your response is sarcastic but San ignores it.
âYou let me show you off as much as I want, and I bitch out Yewon today.â
You donât even have to think about your response, a grin replacing your scowl.
âThat sounds like a damn good deal, Choi San.â

âSannie!âÂ
Yewonâs grating voice has never sounded so fucking heavenly in your ears, knowing exactly whatâs going to happen next. San is already at your side, rifling through your bag for the extra granola bar he knows you have. He grimaces at the sound, his eyes almost begging you to help him, but you shake your head.
âYou dug your own grave, Sannie.â A quick pat on his shoulder and his fate is decided for him.
âYewon,â he greets the girl, continuing to rifle through the bag. âCan I help you?âÂ
The disinterest in his voice didnât deter her, not that anyone was surprised. The cheer squad watched the younger, newer, dumber member as she stumbled through her flirtations, complimenting him on things he didnât need nor want to be complimented on while searching for a fucking granola bar.Â
âYewon,â San finally interrupts the girl, rising with the snack in his hand and glaring down at her. âI donât know if you can tell, but Iâm not interested.âÂ
The shock on her face made you smile. Maybe it was cruel. Maybe it was a bitch named Karma. Or, maybe, you were sick of the shitty stereotypes that you always seemed to fall victim to.Â
âBut youâyou alwaysââ
âI was trying to make my girlfriend jealous of me, as shitty as that is,â San pinches the bridge of his nose and scoffs. âBut Iâve already got myself a cheerleader, Kim Yewon. And sheâs the best girlfriend I could ever ask for. Plus, sheâs hot as fuck,â San grins at you, but you can only roll your eyes.
âI said noââ
âYou said I couldnât tell people I bagged you,â it takes him three steps to reach your side and grab your chin. âNot that I couldnât call you the hottest cheerleader in the world. No offense, Sihyeon.â
âNone taken,â your best friend waves her hand dismissively. âIâm just glad you two finally got your heads out of your asses.âÂ
âShut up, Sihyeon.â You scowl, but San is quick to bend down, hunching at the shoulders to reach your height and kiss you firmly on the mouth. Itâs a searing kiss, more than he said he would do in front of the squad, but you let him have his moment.Â
Youâd made him wait long enough.

âCanât even fuck her right, can you Woo? Canât do anything with that pussy without my help.â
Gently, San undoes the two handcuffs that bound each of Wooyoungâs wrists to yours. His eyes scan over Wooyoungâs skin for abrasions, but San struggles to pay his full care and attention to the task. His mind refuses to stay in the moment, instead rewinding the nightâs events, over and over again like a broken tape-player. The images grow more distorted with every replay.
His muscles still burn from the force with which heâd rammed into Wooyoung from behind, whoâd been on top of you. Every harsh slam of Sanâs hips had buried Wooyoungâs cock deeper into you, indirectly fucking you with his ruthless pace.
âYouâre decent with that smart mouth, Woo, but we both know itâs my cock she likes better. Isnât that so, baby?â
You had whined, too fucked out to answer.
âAw look at her trying to spare your feelings. Sweet thing. Or maybe sheâs just fucked too dumb to think. Any cock will do now, even yours.â
Had you really been too fucked out to answer? What if you had been too unwilling? Filled with guilt at the thought of picking one over the other â even if it was just for play, only to rile Wooyoung up.
San blinks, trying to get his vision focused. Sweat-matted hair clings to his forehead, unpleasantly sticky and prickling at his eyes. The fabric of his robe feels strangely scratchy against his skin, making it hard to concentrate while his thumbs press into your wrist, stimulating your blood-flow on pure auto-pilot.
âYou like that, baby? Like it when I fuck you with Wooyoungâs cock? Much better than letting him fumble on his own. At least I know how to treat that tight cunt.â
Wooyoung had sobbed at the humiliation â they were the right kind of sobs, right? Wooyoung knows San didnât mean it?
It had all felt good in the moment, but now doubt slithers into Sanâs memories, a dark chill creeping up his spine. Had he gone too far in degrading Wooyoung, crossing the line of cruel pleasure into simple cruelty? Had he made the wrong move by trying to rope you into his debasement of Wooyoung?
Thereâs a weird static in Sanâs ears. Vaguely he hears someone praising him, telling him he did so well; but the words canât connect to him. They donât fire off positive neurons in his brain, donât bring the reassurance he so craves.
âDid they really want it?â a low insidious voice whispers to San instead. âWhat if they are just going along with what you pushed on them?â
San frowns. No; you and Wooyoung explicitly consented to all this beforehand. Neither of you are in the habit of neglecting your own safety in a misguided attempt to spare his feelings. You would have told him if anything felt bad. You are different from⌠fromâŚ
He shakes his head, trying to shake off the static. You and Wooyoung would have been honest, he stubbornly tells himself. That much he can trust on â right? Right? Sanâs frown deepens as he tries to look at you, his eyes shaky. You look so tiredâŚ
A cold void presses up against the inside of Sanâs ribcage, and he stiffens in sudden recognition, finally understanding what is happening to him.
No. Nonono. This canât happen. Not right now. He canât drop now. He has take care of you and Wooyoung first. You are his responsibility, not the other way around. It shouldnât be the other way around. If he canât even take care of his partners thenâ
âSan? Are you okay?â
The question comes from far away. Again, heâs not sure who is asking it. San forces himself to smile. No, wait, heâs not smiling. Shit. Shit.
A beautiful soreness has settled in your body, lingering memories clinging to your muscles. You had a perfect view of the utter bliss stretched across Wooyoungâs face, tongue lolling out as San kept his head yanked back by the hair. Overwhelmed by Sanâs harsh pace and words, by fucking you while being fucked; yet always hungry for more, deliberately wiggling his ass when San told him to keep still, or shamelessly talking back at him.
Youâre convinced that just the rough, haphazard thrusts of Wooyoung would have been enough to make you cum, more than enough when combined with the entrancing sight of him and San entangled; but it certainly didnât hurt when San reached a hand around Wooyoungâs waist to thrum at your clit. Heâd even smacked the oversensitive nub, with just enough force to send you straight into one of the most intense orgasms youâve had in recent weeks.
You could happily stay submerged in those memories for hours to come, but the pleasant haze of the aftermath fades quickly when San massages your wrists â and you suddenly realise something is off.
He looks tired, which is not unusual after an intense session, but somehow itâs the wrong kind of tired. His eyes are unfocused, and although heâs taking perfect care of you, there is none of the usual warmth of his attentive glow. Like he is just going through the motions. San never just goes through the motions.
A dread sinks into your stomach as a grim suspicion flits through your mind.
âSan? Are you okay?â
Wooyoung, who had been drinking some water, looks up before San even registers that you asked him something.
Sanâs brow furrows, the skin around his eyes tightening. He faintly shakes his head, and you canât be sure if thatâs meant to be an answer to your question or just an involuntary motion, but itâs an answer either way.
Your heart flinches.
âWoo?â you say, deliberately keeping your voice calm. San does not resist when you pull him into a back-hug, numbly letting himself get manoeuvred as you wrap your arms around him, holding him tightly against your chest. âI think Sanâsââ
âYeah,â Wooyoung says, already by your side with a bottled electrolyte drink and an energy bar. âHey, Sannie,â he murmurs gently, brushing Sanâs hair off his forehead. âWhatâs wrong? Too much today?â
San swallows thickly, looking strangely small in your arms. Tension pours out of his body â but itâs too fast, like he is emptying himself of everything, deflating in your embrace until only a hollow shell is left. Thereâs an odd, glassy shine to his eyes as he looks from you to Wooyoung.
âAreâ are you okay?â San manages to ask weakly. âAre you hurt? Didâ did Iâ?â
His uncertain voice pierces your chest, deep and sharp.
âNo, weâre not hurt.â You plant a firm kiss on his limp shoulder, tightening your hold on him. âWeâre fine, Sannie,â you murmur past the sudden lump in your throat, pressing another kiss on the side of his head. âNo one is hurt, you made us feel so good.â
San lets out a pained whine, like he tries to shrink away from the positive affirmation.
âHey, hey, listen,â Wooyoung says, gentle but firm, tipping up Sanâs chin so their eyes meet. âSan, it was exactly what I wanted out of this. Are you hearing me? You did nothing we didnât want.â
He is adamant in his reassurance, aimed at Sanâs deepest insecurity with pin-point precision, and San manages to take a deep breath.
âIâ I hear you,â he says, giving a shaky nod.
Relief floods through you when Wooyoungâs words achieve what yours could not; along with a small twinge of something more complicated. You donât linger on that twinge, centering your attention on San instead.
You help San to drink a few sips of water, and Wooyoung tears open the energy barâs wrapper, breaking off a few bite-sized pieces.
Wooyoung keeps up his steady stream of reassurances, while you decide to focus on grounding San through physical touch. Better to let Wooyoung handle the talking on this one, clearly. One of your arms is wrapped securely around Sanâs narrow waist, freeing up your other hand to gently caress over the slight trembles running through his body.
Youâve never seen San go through dom drop this hard, this fast. Heâs had to shake off a light funk, and you do vividly remember the one time San came by your place a whole day afterwards, a belated response to the scene. Heâd been clingy and despondent, wanting to hold you and be held; and you had done exactly that, much like you are holding him now.
Together, you and Wooyoung weave a bright, warm protective bubble around San, nursing the bruises of his fall. His deflated spirit is slowly replenished with your caring attentions, helped along by the energy bar and electrolytes. Soon there is only a crumpled wrapper and an empty bottle left, but you and Wooyoung are still there.
Still protecting him from himself.
Finally San settles into your hold, eyes fluttering shut with a sigh when your nails gently scrape over his scalp.
âThatâs it, rest up,â Wooyoung says with a soft smile and an even softer shine in his eyes. âWe got you. Feeling a little better?â
San nods sluggishly, exhaustion radiating from his every pore as he sinks a little deeper into you.
Wooyoung chuckles as he watches San curl up against you, and rubs an affectionate hand over Sanâs thigh. âBut not back completely, are you? Hmm, what do you need?â He taps his bottom lip in thought, the question more to himself than to San; then an idea brightens up his eyes. âHow about I make you some proper food, get something warm in that stomach? Sound good?â
San makes a vaguely âyesâ-shaped noise, tiredly smiling up at Wooyoung.
âAlright, then Iâll handle that, okay Sannie? Just means I got to step into the kitchen for a minute, but you wonât be alone.â Wooyoungâs eyes flicker up to you, giving you a quick wink. âI am leaving you in very capable hands. Give you two a chance to chat, hm?â
Before you even get the chance to offer whipping up a meal instead (after all, Wooyoung is the resident expert at helping San through a drop, not you), Wooyoung is on his feet and pulling on some clothes.
âIâll leave the door open, alright? Just give a shout if you need me, Iâll be back like that,â he says, snapping his fingers. Wooyoung leans in to give San a last kiss on the cheek, sweet with a tint of playfulness, then steps away out of the bedroom.
Itâs just you and San now.
You take in a deep breath and then release it, squeezing your arms a little tighter around San. âLook at you, getting a home-made meal out of this. Lucky guy,â you try to joke, poking his cheek.
Sanâs shoulders shake lightly with a quiet laugh. âSeriously, the lengths I have to go to to get fed properly around here,â he sighs, looking up at you with an exaggerated pout. But San canât hold on to the lighthearted moment, his pout fading into a pained wince. âSorry about all this. Never meant to cause trouble.â
âSan, donât you dare apologise!â you gently scold him. âWe look after each other around here. Whatâd you do if it was me or Wooyoung?â
ââŚIâd look after you.â
âYeah you would. You always do,â you press on. âAnd you wouldnât let us call it âtroubleâ either.â
âNo, I wouldnât,â San sighs, admitting defeat. âNo apologies.â
But knowing he doesnât have to be sorry, and actually not feeling sorry, are two very different beasts â and itâs pretty clear which one Sanâs dealing with. Something sharp pinches in your chest as you remember what San stammered out in distress.
âAre you hurt? Didâ did Iâ?â
Is that still on his mind? Does he really think he could ever�
âSan, do you evenââ
The words catch in your throat as you catch Sanâs eyes. Theyâre no longer hollowed out, but there is a vast ocean of emotion behind them â and San is in safe waters for now, but all it takes is one dangerous wave for him to be pulled under again.
You wonât let him. You wonât.
âSan,â you say again, your voice steadier this time. Itâs disquieting, how a man with such wide shoulders can look so small. âI always feel so safe with you, you know that?â
He nods, smiling faintly. âI know,â he says, but there is not enough conviction behind it to your liking.
âAnd do you also know,â you say with an exaggerated sigh, wrapping your legs around Sanâs waist, âhow nervous I was when we had that first negotiation, back when we started this whole thing? It was just you and me, and I still felt so fucking embarrassed about barging in on you and Woo. I was this close to skipping town and starting my whole life over in a new country.â
San canât help a chuckle. (Youâre taking it as a victory.) âKnew you were nervous. Didnât know it was that bad.â
âOh yeah, it was that bad for sure,â you laugh breathily, patting Sanâs chest. âOnly thing holding me back was that I couldnât decide on a new identity. So many options!â
âWhat, that was the only thing?â San asks, and gives you a cheeky side-eye despite his exhaustion.
âEh, maybe there was this pair of hotties that had something to do with it too,â you tease, dramatically rolling your eyes at San before you go serious again. âBut thatâs not the point. The point is⌠all of those nerves were gone by the time I walked out the door. Because of you.â
There is nothing cheeky about Sanâs gaze this time.
âYou made me feel so at ease, like I could trust you with anything,â you say quietly, ignoring the prickle behind your eyes when San leans his head against your shoulder, nuzzling into you. âLike Iâd always be safe with you, no matter what â and youâve proven me right every damn day since then.â
A serene hush follows as San quietly takes hold of your words. He no longer looks adrift in the ocean, pulled along by a new current that carries him safely ashore.
Itâs a comfortable silence â until a light mrrp comes from the doorway, announcing Byeolâs arrival.
âHey look, reinforcements are here,â you joke while Byeol pads over to the foot of the bed. For a moment you only see the swish of her dark tail, then she hops onto the bed, sheets lightly scrunching underfoot as she makes a direct line towards San. A cat on a mission.
You untangle your legs from Sanâs waist to give Byeol a comfy spot to lie down in. San smiles softly as the Thai cat circles a few times in his lap, bumping her head against your hand before she settles in. Contently, she kneads biscuits into Sanâs robe, and starts purring loudly when he gently scritches at her exposed, fluffy tummy.
You sit like that for a while; with San patting Byeol while you idly run your fingers through his hair, like a little braid train of affection. Itâs quiet, comfortable, minutes passing by unhurried until the silence is finally broken by San.
ââŚI think Iâm alright now,â he says, his smile steady, and a shimmer in his eyes that isnât underlined with distress. âThanks. For being here.â
âAnytime, Sannie,â you say, resting your forehead against his temple. âWhatever you need, we got you.â
âDamn right we do,â a sudden voice says from the door opening.
You blink in surprise when you see Wooyoung leaned against the frame, watching you and San. He is slightly obscured by shadows in the dimmed bedroom, but his smile shines through brightly; how long has he been standing there?
âI always feel so safe with you, you know that?â
Wooyoung hadnât meant to listen in. Heâd just sidled up to the bedroom with Byeol in his arms, thinking to provide San some extra company. Then he caught a wisp of conversation, and thought itâd be better to hang back for a minute.
âHanging backâ isnât usually Wooyoungâs style â and neither is leaving Sanâs side after a dom drop. But today, it just seemed like the right move. For San, and for you.
After all, Wooyoung hadnât missed how quiet you went after San dropped.
Itâs not that you werenât taking good care of San; Wooyoung also hadnât missed how you held onto him so tight he couldnât slip out of reach if he tried. Soothing touches to keep San grounded in the room so he could hear the words Wooyoung was saying to him.
But San needed words from you too.
Wooyoung still isnât sure why you took a backseat and let him take the lead; maybe you were shaken by seeing San like this â or maybe you were worried about saying the wrong thing? Well, Wooyoung definitely hadnât worried about that. Youâd find the words to say.
Now he quietly listens in as the words come to you, just like heâd known, with a dismantling sincerity against which Sanâs darker thoughts donât stand a damn chance.
ââand youâve proven me right every damn day since then.â
Wooyoung grins, giving himself a mental pat on the back for making the right call. He lowers Byeol to the ground and ushers her into the bedroom, then decides to give you and San just a moment longer.
He heads back into the kitchen to grab the little bowl of food he whipped up. Nothing grand or fancy, just some stir-fried kimchi with leftover rice, a quick fried egg on top.
Then Wooyoung finally slips inside the bedroom. He pauses at what he sees inside.
Fuck, he wishes he was holding a camera.
Something about the homely sight of you and San cuddled up with Byeol just looks⌠right.
San pats the Byeol with a calm, pensive expression. If Wooyoung knows anything about San, his mind is still lingering on the freshly imbued assurance from you and Wooyoung; that you never feel anything but safe and cared for with him. Gently he prods at the bauble of knowledge in his head, to make sure it doesnât slip out of his grasp again.
It wonât â your hold on him is too secure for that.
You are sweetly playing with Sanâs hair, the strength of your devotion plainly written all over your face in bold all-caps letters. Wooyoung knows your affection for them is not romantically inclined, but god itâs so obvious that you care. You care so deeply.
As for the nature of his own inclinations, Wooyoung tries to not examine those too closely. Itâs not like âconformityâ has defined a lot of his past relationships anyway. As far as heâs concerned, itâs more important how he acts on his wants and feelings, than how he labels them. And watching you and San together? He can hardly complain about how the three of you are acting on things now.
An unbidden smile curves around his lips at the soft intimacy on display, his stomach clenching oddly.
(Itâs not jealousy, he tells himself.)
(Well. Maybe a little bit of jealousy, he quickly amends. Wooyoung is never one to pretend he does not want to be wanted.)
ââŚI think Iâm alright now,â San says, and Wooyoung doesnât realise heâd been lost in a daze until the words shake him out of it. âThanks. For being here.â
âAnytime, Sannie,â you assure him, and Wooyoung warms at your smile. âWhatever you need, we got you.â
Ah, that seems like just the right opening. âDamn right we do,â Wooyoung says with a grin. âGot you some food, San. Want to come out, or eat it here?â
San perks up when he sees the bowl of food, but has no desire to get out of the bed yet; so you and San free up space for Wooyoung to join you instead. (His flinch of jealousy relaxes at this proof of want.)
Byeol is the only one who makes complaints, miffed at being ignored by San over a hot meal. But she is easily mollified when Wooyoung lifts her from Sanâs lap into his own, where his attentions soon have her purring contently again.
San makes an appreciative noise as he digs into the simple meal, his face scrunching up with every mouthful of food. While he empties out the bowl, you and Wooyoung catch each othersâ eyes, exchanging a satisfied nod. San is alright now.
After the food is gone, San decides to take a cold shower, just for good measure to snap himself fully out of it. Wooyoung takes this opportunity to change the sheets, so he and San get to sleep with fresh linen tonight. You watch him with Byeol in your arms, taking your turn as kitty-custodian very seriously.
âNot gonna help me out here?â Wooyoung asks, giving you a massive side-eye just to be dramatic.
âIâm busy!â you counter, slightly raising Byeol up. âHey, um.â
âUm?â
âI want to stay over tonight. Sleep here. If thatâs alright with you and San.â
Wooyoung blinks at you in surprise, but quickly breaks out in a wide smile. That was about the last thing he expected you to say. âYeah, of course!â
And so San and Wooyoung happily welcomed you into their bed â and not for a tumble between the sheets, for once.
Itâs been a while since you last slept in the same bed with someone, let alone two someoneâs, one of whom had pulled you into his firm chest, arms wrapped around you. (Bare arms. You had picked up some sleep clothes from home and Wooyoung has a comfy flannel pyjama set, but San apparently canât sleep unless heâs wearing nothing but a pair of fitted boxers.)
You werenât shocked to discover that San is a cuddler in bed; heâs prone to clinginess during the day, why would it be any different at night?
Tragically, the menâs company did not by some strange magic make this the best sleep youâve had in years. As familiar as Sanâs bedroom is to you, as familiar as you are with the feel and scent of his and Wooyoungâs presence, youâre so unused to sharing your bedspace that instead of falling sound asleep, you drift in-and-out of a restless slumber.
No, you arenât exactly convinced to make a regular habit out of this âstaying overnightâ thing, but⌠for now? You really donât care about any of that.
Youâre not sure when you made the decision to sleep over; maybe it was two seconds before telling Wooyoung, maybe two seconds after you realised San was in trouble. You just know you want to be right next to San in the morning, so you can see with your own eyes if he is okay or if he needs anything. Your protective instinct is too strong to be thwarted by some mild discomfort.
The night passes, and finally you drift back into full consciousness with a faint beam of sunlight shining through a narrow slit in Sanâs blackout curtains. Shaking off your slumber, you faintly register that your face is pressed against two comfortable, firm pillows.
Ah wait. No. Not pillows.
Sanâs chest.
Well, same difference, really.
Somehow youâre more deeply entangled than you started out the night; San clings tightly onto you with a leg slung over your waist, and you can feel Wooyoungâs arms snaked around him in turn. There is a light pout on Sanâs face and he snores softly, his breath falling against the top of your head â which could have been endearing, if your mind hadnât just cleared up enough to identify an out-of-place hardness pressed against your stomach.
Oh.
You hadnât thought this far ahead, last night, but⌠yeah, makes sense.
Groggily you try to slip out of Sanâs arms without waking him, but you freeze up when he shifts and babbles something incoherent. His hold tightens on pure instinct; San is still knocked out in deep sleep.
For a moment you are caught in indecision, unsure what to do.
Youâve grown comfortable in your routines in this dynamic, but this lies outside those usual patterns. An old unease cranes its neck up at the break in routine; the worry that you trespassing on their relationship in a space that is not for you â but you firmly slap back those out-dated insecurities.
The reason why youâve never been in this situation before is because of your boundaries, not theirs.
âHey, are you getting up already?â a hoarse voice whispers from behind San when you shift to try and find a position where his dick doesnât poke you right in the stomach. Wooyoung lifts his head, bleary dark eyes peeking up from above Sanâs slumbering figure. âWe can sleep in, thereâs no rush.â
âNot in a rush,â you whisper back. âSan is justâ umââ
âAh.â
Judging by Wooyoungâs quick understanding, this must be a pretty common situation. His hand wanders down to brush over the crotch of Sanâs boxers, who sighs a moan even at the faint contact.
(The moan makes a compelling argument on why you might stay overnight more often after all.)
âSo⌠the way I see it, we got two options,â Wooyoung murmurs, his voice thick with leftover sleep. âEither we rescue you from mister cuddle-monsterâs grapple, or⌠we could wake Sannie up, see if he wants any help with that.â
His hand rests on Sanâs lower abdomen, not moving while he waits for your response.
You bite your lip, definitely not averse to lending San a hand, so to speak. âHeâd be okay with that? With me too?â
âOnly one way to find out,â Wooyoung says, giving you a languid grin, âbut⌠letâs just say I have it on good authority that San will probably be more than okay.â
ââGood authorityâ, huh?â you say, and a faint heat creeps under your skin at the implication they talked about this very scenario, about you. By now youâd think that they lost some of their ability to fluster you, but no, you donât think youâll ever build up a full immunity to the impact of San and Wooyoung. (You canât really bring yourself to mind.) âThen⌠yeah.â
Wooyoung presses a kiss on the solid muscles of Sanâs shoulder, waking him with a few gentle nips of teeth.
âNmhn, âYoungie?â Sanâs eyes flutter open, groggy and disoriented, but his confusion melts into a soft smile when he realises who heâs holding in his arms. âHey. Good morning.â
âGood morning yourself,â you whisper. Even with everyone awake, somehow it still feels wrong to raise your voice too high in the darkened bedroom, with the faint chirrups of birds outside. âHowâre you doing?â
San lets out a tired groan, shifting to stretch some of the sleep out of his body. But itâs not an unhappy groan, a distinctly feline curve to the edges of his smile. He turns his head to nuzzle at Wooyoung, while simultaneously pulling you back closer into him.
You can see the exact moment on Sanâs face where he wakes up enough to realise heâs pulled you right back against his half-hard boner.
âShit, sorryââ he begins to stammer, but you gently shush him, pressing a finger to his lips.
âItâs okay, Sannie,â you assure him. âSeriously, itâs fine.â
(There is something weirdly adorable about a guy being so self-conscious about his morning wood when heâs had his dick inside your bodyâs horny trinity of holes more times than you care to count.)
âActually,â Wooyoung chimes in, planting another kiss on Sanâs shoulder, âwe were thinkingâŚâ His lips trail up Sanâs neck. ââŚhow about we take care of that for you, hm?â
San draws in a shaky breath as Wooyoung palms his cock, putting light pressure on the crotch of his boxers. âY-you already took care of me yesterday,â he protests, weakly. âYou donât have toââ
âWe want to, San,â you say. âThis isnât out of obligation or anything.â You press a gentle kiss on his chest, then glance up to him. âSo⌠what do you want?â
He swallows, his Adamâs apple bobbing in the dim light. âYeah,â San says quietly. âWant to be taken care of.â
Thatâs all Wooyoung needs to hear.
San lets out a shuddery sigh, mouth falling slack as Wooyoung starts moving his hand with slow, languid strokes.
For a moment you just watch them, savouring the sight of San, the biggest people pleaser you know, being pleased by Wooyoung. You always cherish these times, when the roles reverse and San lets himself go, lets go of responsibility and control. Reciprocating the trust you and Wooyoung always put in him.
âHowâs that, Sannie?â Wooyoung asks, and there is also something equally worth savouring about the sight of him like this, doting and attentive to the person who so often attends to his every need. Wooyoung is greedy in bed, never shy about his many wants â but he is equally generous, giving all of himself to his partners.
âHm, âs goodâŚâ San mumbles, wiggling lazily into Wooyoungâs chest.
You canât keep your eyes off them, completely entranced by how Sanâs breaths slowly get heavier, soft moans blending into his exhales. His head lolls back against Wooyoungâs shoulder with a whine, exposing the tantalising column of his neck to you.
The magnetic pull of Sanâs bared throat is too strong to resist, the scattering of freckles there begging to be kissed.
San shudders as your lips gently press against the prominent mole just under his jaw. You take great care to lavish every speck on his star-clustered skin with attention, where you can feel his moans reverberate against your mouth.
Everything starts to melt together in the morning daze, bodies half-covered under the sheets as San rolls his hips into Wooyoungâs hand, gasping when you suck another kiss into his freckled neck. He holds your onto waist, more to steady himself than anything else, but his fingers dig in a little harder when you slowly move down to his chest.
Sanâs whines grow louder as your teeth graze against his nipple, flicking it with small kitten licks until you start to suck in earnest. His firm tits provide you with generous handfuls of meaty muscle, tensing under your palms as your hands squeeze at him.
Sometimes youâd almost forget just how incredibly sensitive San is, a fact often obscured by his complete control in the bedroom. Even the lightest touches are capable of driving him up the wall, and soon heâs writhing between you and Wooyoung, eyes squeezed shut in pleasure.
âSuch a good boy you are for us,â Wooyoung coos at San, teasing him with a good-natured grin. âWant me to edge you? Would you like that, Sannie?â
San turns his head to look at Wooyoung; thereâs a wet gleam in his eyes, but he nods eagerly. âWant it, yeah.â
Wooyoung lifts his hand up to his mouth, doing his best to be covert as he spits into his palm, like he does not want to disturb the softness of the moment with something as crude as a little extra lubrication. He then reaches back under the covers â where San sucks in a sharp breath as Wooyoung slides his hand underneath the waistband of Sanâs boxers.
San groans, unable to stay still with two pairs of hands roaming over his body, and two mouths exploring just as eagerly. Wooyoung has replaced your lips on Sanâs neck, mouthing at a reddened mark you left earlier, while you suck a wet trail between his pecs.
San mewls when you thumb at his nipples, giving them a light pinch. His body jerks, but there is still a clear purpose to the way he shifts one leg forward, pressing his thigh against your clothed crotch.
Itâs an unmistakable invitation, one that you are keen to accept.
You slowly start to grind on Sanâs thick thigh, the double fabric layer of your panties and sleep shorts dragging against your clit. Itâs little more but a light burn, not enough to get you off, but you appreciate it all the same.
âSo sweet, our Sannie,â you giggle. (For real, the biggest people pleaser you know.) âWe are supposed to take care of you, remember?â
He whines in protest, pressing his thigh harder into your cunt while simultaneously pushing his ass back against Wooyoung. Another obvious invitation.
âAw, he just canât help himself, can you San?â Wooyoung rasps with a wicked smile. âHe likes to pretend heâs a big olâ meanie, but he just doesnât know what to do with himself if heâs not making us feel good.â
San whines again, in agreement this time, squirming between you and Wooyoung.
âAlready making me feel so good,â you sigh, softly kissing Sanâs flushed sternum. âJust feel that, all from getting to take care of you.â
You pry his hand from your waist, pushing it down your shorts and panties to let him swipe at the wetness clinging to your folds. He groans throatily and immediately tries to hone in on your clit â but you tsk and yank him back.
âNuh-uh, Sannie,â you chide him gently. âThatâs not how things work today. Just be here with us, thatâs all we need you to do.â
âTh-thenâ wanna feelâ ngh p-please, wannaââ Sanâs voice is choked up, his touch clumsy as he hooks his thumb underneath the waistbands of your clothes and tries to tug them down. âF-fuck, pleaseââ
His desperation sears hotly through you, refusing to be denied. You shimmy out of your clothes and kick them off, now naked from the bottom down. The motion drags the covers further downward â and now you can actually see the obscene bulge in Sanâs boxers as Wooyoung jerks him off, the outline of his fist moving at a steady pace.
Sanâs breath hitches with every stroke, his eyes gleaming with unshed tears. Still babbling pleas at you, his hands kneading at your sides as he shoves his thigh back between yours. He glances at Wooyoung too, arching his back in a not-subtle reminder of what he needs.
âShh, donât move, Sannie,â you shush him, running a hand through his mussed up hair. âJust let us use you, thatâs all you have to do.â
âDo it, please, do it, hmgh, wanna feel you make a mess on me, wanna be goodâŚâ A thick tear escapes Sanâs lashes, streaking down his puffy cheek.
âAw, so polite for such a dirty boy,â Wooyoung teases fondly. There is nothing but pure adoration in his eyes as he lightly rolls his hips forward. âAsking us so nicely to cum all over you. Who could ever say no to that, hm?â
You certainly couldnât. And so you lift your leg just enough for Sanâs thigh to slide neatly in-between, allowing him to feel the wet heat of your cunt right against the beefy muscle.
San bites his lip to try (and fail) to stifle a high-pitched whine as your arousal smears over him with every drag of your hips. He groans petulantly when Wooyoung stops stroking him, but itâs only so Wooyoung can take off his own pyjama pants, and tugs down Sanâs boxers just enough for his cock to smack wetly against his stomach.
Then Wooyoungâs fingers are wrapped around Sanâs thick length again and his eyes flutter shut, face contorting in pleasure as he struggles to keep still between the two bodies rutting against him. Wooyoung breathes heavily, moving his hand faster as he grinds into Sanâs backside.
âThatâs it, Sannie, just a little more,â Wooyoung says, his voice tightly wound. âYouâre getting close, arenât you?â
âMhm, y-yeah.â San is rapidly losing his restraint, his trimmed nails digging into the soft flesh of your waist, fingers slotted over your stretch marks. Whiny moans stumble off his lips in freefall, his thigh clenching under your clit as heady arousal fills the early morning air.
Earlier, you didnât think you were going to cum. Youâre not even really trying now, despite Sanâs request; too focused on your worship of his body. Languidly, you rub your clit against his flexing muscle, so distracted by teasing his nipples and sucking at the swell of his cleavage that you fail to realise how close you are getting yourself. The coiling pressure creeps up on you â but like a gear locking into place, you stumble on just the right angle and youâre so drunk on pleasing San and heâs whimpering and heat lances through your cunt and oh godâ
Right as you are tipping over, Wooyoung takes his hand off Sanâs cock, denying him the very rush that is flooding your senses. You spasm against San, his choked up sob feeding into your pleasure as fresh slick leaks onto his leg. The slide against his glistening thigh is so easy by now, and you breathlessly ride out your high in the company of Sanâs snivelled whines.
âWhere do you want me, Sannie?â Wooyoung asks with hard, raspy gasps, not far off from his own release. âHere? On your tits? Mouth?â
San makes a strangled noise, shaking his head like heâs embarrassed to say it out loud, but eventually stammers, âT-tits.â
Immediately, Wooyoung pushes San onto his back and straddles his thighs â one glossy with your slick. A thin, bright beam of sunlight falls right across Sanâs face and chest, highlighting the beautiful flush of skin, beads of sweat gathering on his brow and sternum. There are tear-streaks on his face, and a wet smear on his stomach where the tip of his cock rests, oozing pre-cum.
With Wooyoung snugly sitting in his lap, letting out rapid, pitched breaths as he jerks himself off with purposeful strokes, Sanâs instincts to be helpful bubble up again. He reaches to touch Wooyoung â but you quickly intervene, pinning Sanâs wrists above his head. Itâs startlingly effective; San instantly goes lax under your hold. He melts into the bed with a shuddered breath, like the thought of pushing back does not even occur to him.
(A good thing, because thereâs no doubt on your mind that San could easily break free. Eyeing the width of his biceps, you swear he mustâve been spending more time at the gym lately.)
âKeep those hands right where they are, mister,â you order playfully, grinning at San. âNo touching.â
San sulks at you, but the gleam in his eyes gives him away. Heâs clearly eating this whole thing up; half turned on and half amused by how you and Wooyoung have taken control. âFine,â he pouts cutely. âIâll behave.â
âGood boy,â you purr, immediately testing Sanâs obedience by releasing his wrists to wrap your hand around his cock. San hisses in sensitivity as you tease your thumb at the leaking slit, but he stays in place as ordered.
âFuck, thatâs hot,â Wooyoung groans, drawing your attention back to him.
Like you, Wooyoung is only naked from the waist down. It looks a little silly, a little cute; domesticity dripping off him with his flannel pyjama top and sleep-mussed hair â all while he works himself up to a quick orgasm with the lewd squelches of his fist pumping his dick. Wooyoung bites his lip as he stares down at San, lying utterly pliant beneath him and just taking what youâre willing to give.
And what you give, is enough to get San whiny and squirming again, fighting not to buck into your hand; but not enough to let him cum before Wooyoung does.
Thankfully for him, Wooyoung does not need much longer.
Wooyoung leans forward, steadying himself with a hand on Sanâs hip. His breath comes out in sharp gasps, dark eyes transfixed on Sanâs heaving chest and the light bruises youâve left scattered all over him. âS-so fucking good for us, Sannie,â he moans, a crack in his voice. âAh, âm gonnaâ ah, fuck, ahhââ
His hips stutter as he grunts, nails digging into Sanâs waist to keep himself from doubling over as he shoots messy ropes of cum over Sanâs chest. Some reaching all the way up his neck, adding their white glisten to Sanâs flushed, sweaty skin. He hisses a curse that transforms into a low moan when you eagerly lap up a rivulet between his pecs, then follow a trail to his nipple.
Wooyoung pants heavily, his dark hair sticking to his face as he catches his breath. âShit, you twoâŚâ he groans, watching how you leisurely mouth at Sanâs fevered skin, your hand still keeping a steady pace. âHow about it, baby, shall we let Sannie have his turn now?â
San bites down a whimper, his back arching as his fingers dig into the mattress.
You hum in agreement and move your hand a little quicker. In contrast, you slowly work your way up Sanâs neck, pressing a few light kisses up his chin until you reach the corner of his mouth.
San knows exactly what you are offering him â and he greedily accepts, tilting his head to meet your lips full-on. He groans as you suck his tongue into your mouth, sharing his seed between you. The combination of cum and faint morning breath is not the most pleasant, but kissing San is always sweet regardless of taste.
Meanwhile, Wooyoung lends a helping hand (or rather, a mouth) by sliding down the bed and wrap his lips around Sanâs cockhead. He works his jaw with thick sweeps of his tongue, just tending to the tip while you handle the rest of Sanâs thick length.
You consume his every muffled curse, every strangled whine, until San is trembling, so lost in pleasure he no longer has the presence of mind to respond to your kiss. You suckle on his bottom lip and reach your hand further down to cup Sanâs balls and squeeze gently, unable to help a moan of your own when San lets out a broken sob at the touch.
âW-Wooâ Wooyoungâ I-Iâ Fuckââ
San tries to warn him â which Wooyoung only takes as an invitation to sink further down on his cock, throat bobbing as he swallows greedily.
Together you ease San through it, hands rubbing over his shivering body as he whines and convulses, bucking up into Wooyoungâs mouth, until all tension melts away. San relaxes into the bed, rendered boneless as he catches his breath. There is a dopey, tired smile on Sanâs face, and finally he reaches for you and Wooyoung, pulling you into his broad chest as he slowly recovers, perfectly content.
This time, itâs you who is changing the sheets.
âSo, how was it? Sleeping over?â San asks when he walks back into the bedroom after freshening up. He looks none the worse for wear after yesterdayâs ordeal, a renewed lightness to his shoulders as he towels off his damp hair.
You chuckle sheepishly. âHonestly? The sleeping part was kind of terrible,â you admit. âNothing personal! Just not great with sharing blankets. But the waking up⌠Yeah, the waking up part was pretty damn amazing. And that is personal.â
âKnew it. You hear that Sannie? Sheâs only using us for sex,â Wooyoung jokes, pinching your side as he walks past behind you to grab his phone from the nightstand.
âDonât think so lowly of yourself, Woo,â you huff. âI also use you for your cooking.â
âWhat about me?â San asks, giving you a playful pout. âJust sex then?â
You finish yanking off the sheets and gather it together into a bundle, then stand up straight, tapping your lip in thought. âHmmâŚâ you say, giving San a scrutinising look-over. âHugs. You give good hugs.â
San brightens like the sun breaking through cloudcover, delighted at your âuseâ for him. He immediately ambushes you from behind, arms wrapping tightly around your waist as he rubs his chin against your shoulder.
âAish! Seriously?â Wooyoung complaints, and you yelp when he pinches your side a little harder this time around.
âYou started it, you idiot,â you laugh, gently untangling yourself from San. You hand him the bundle of sheets, dirtied with sweat and slick, and grab a fresh set.
San sulks at the bed linen in his arms. âCanât believe we had to change to change sheets again,â he grouses. âI have so much more laundry with you two around, itâs ridiculous.â
Wooyoung just snorts. âWhat are you talking about? Donât try to put this on us, youâre the one who doesnât believe in laying down a towel.â
âDonât like the feel of them,â San mumbles through pursed lips. âBesides, those dang things always seem to shift out of place at the worst moment anyway. Whatâs the point, except even more laundry?â
You shake your head at his complaints, but itâs pure affection. Meanwhile, Wooyoung sidles up behind San and takes his turn hugging him. âI could help out more, you know. Move in, share the load. The laundry load.â
San blinks in surprise, turning his head to look at Wooyoung, while you look up curiously, pausing your task of wrangling sheets around the corner of the mattress. Is Wooyoung serious, or is this just his usual messing around?
But judging by his calm expression, Wooyoung is one hundred percent serious. He sways back and forth on the balls of his feet, rocking San in his hug â but his eyes are completely focused, watching for Sanâs reaction.
âI mean⌠you practically live here already,â San says, reaching back his arms to hold onto Wooyoungâs hips, steady him a little. âWeâd just be making it official, right?â
âYeah! Thatâs what I wanna do, make it official,â Wooyoung says, then catches you off-guard by turning to you. âHow about it? How do you feel about getting me as your official neighbour?â
You let out an abashed laugh, already self-conscious to be in the room for this conversation between them, let alone involved. âWhy are you asking me? Iâm not the one youâre moving in with!â
Wooyoung shrugs. âJust felt right to check in,â he says, so matter-of-factly that the lump of awkwardness in your chest softens. Heâs not treating your input on the matter like a laugh; and for a moment, you find yourself at a loss for how to respond. To be considered in a big life choice like this â a relationship choice â is not something thatâs ever happened to you before.
A jumble of feelings bounces around in your chest; but theyâre led at the helm by happiness, and a wide, giddy smile has curved around your lips before you even realise itâs happening.
Warmth bursts through your veins as you nod at San and Wooyoung, whoâre both smiling back at you. âYeah,â you say, feeling oddly shy. âIâd love to have you here, officially. Welcome home, Woo.â
