jake – bad boys
— bad boys main masterlist
pairing: sim jaeyun x fem!reader
summary: jake, a playboy and the guy that has all the girls swooned. even you. jake never knew of your existence until sunghoon pointed you out while you were on the bench sketching something. jake realises he never played with you before and that leads to you being part of sunghoon and jake's evil bet.
warnings: playboy jake, suggestive contents (but no smut because wtf i can't write it) - i said the word 'sex' like once but nothing bad, jake is a really shitty person (obviously doesn't portray jake in real life and there is a decent amount of angst in here (read my note to understand why i say so)

NOTE: won't lie while rereading to proofread this again, i nearly teared up because i realised how much angst there is. especially towards the end. a tear almost slipped guys. i'm surprised that i can write decently to the point that while rereading it i can nearly cry at my own work
sim jaeyun, the guy every girl would love to be under in many ways possible and yes i meant every possible way, as disgusting as it sounds. a master flirt and a big playboy. he also happens to be the captain of the school’s soccer team but even with a ‘bad reputation’ the coaches weren’t allowed to do anything. jaeyun was the ace in soccer after all.
now you might be wondering when this poor boy started this whole bad boy antics.
“9th grade.” jake says. yes, you heard that right. our ‘hero’ started his playboy journey in 9th grade. All the poor 14 year old girls he played with in that grade. He never knew what happened to them considering he moved schools after that. Which was how it always went, play with every girl in his grade and then his parents would move him to another school.
But of course, jake didn’t expect to actually stay in this school for 2 years now. maybe it was because they had no other schools to enrol him in and they were left with no choice but to face the consequences of their son’s inappropriate acts. Anyways, jake found friends that he grew close with, 6 other boys who equally shared quite the same experience and feeling.
“hey, did you forget the coach wanted to see you today?” sunghoon asks as he slings his arm around jake’s shoulder.
“whoops, kinda tired from last night.” jake says. sunghoon smirks.
“From another one of your side chicks or the job from last night. I mean, you two have been going at it until 4am after we completed our job. I heard she’s like a nerd or something.”
“yeah, she’s in my calculus class. easy to manipulate her really. I simply told her i needed help with calculus and she instantly helped. the usual jake charm works as always.” jake laughs.
“bet she’s gonna cling onto you.” sunghoon says.
“all the girls i’ve been with want to cling onto me.”
“but because you don’t do commitment, you ghost them. yeah, yeah i know. you’ve said this like a bunch of times.” sunghoon says.
“that’s the sim jaeyun move for you.” he winks. sunghoon gags.
“never wink at me again dude.” jake laughs.
“HYUNNGGGGGGG.” sunoo yells.
“yeah?” both sunghoon and jake answer.
“jay hyung got into a fight again.”
“he really needs to control his anger issues.” sunghoon says.
“that’s jay on the daily.” jake shrugs. both jake and sunghoon ran over to help jay.
As for you, our heroine of the story, you so happened to listen to jake and sunghoon’s convo. you knew jake was a playboy and he openly was so proud of it but that didn’t stop you from falling into his charms. you were i guess blinded by love. you knew jake better than he did probably and it was actually scary to think about it.
Sometimes you felt like you were a stalker or a pervert for knowing such deep secrets on jake. you knew this was an obsession but you loved jake so that didn’t matter. Having heard that jake and sunghoon were out to help jay, you decided to make your way over to the scene of the fight.
students were gathering around jay as he punched the guy in the face.
“i don’t like guys like you. bullying others for fun? how would you like it if i bullied you instead hmm?” jay says. jay gets ready to punch the guy when sunghoon grabs jay.
“Alright buddy, that’s enough of causing trouble. your dad needs to clear out your name now or else the cops will get suspicious of us.” sunghoon whispers. jay grunts.
“this isn’t over.” jay says as he glares at the guy. jake sighs.
“hey bud, i suggest you don’t inform the teachers. they can’t even do jackshit because they know who we are.” jake says. the bully gets ready to launch at jake. jake pulls out his gun.
“cool design huh? wouldn’t want this to be the last thing you see.” jake tilts his head whilst pouting. the bully cowers in fear, there weren’t many students along the hallway but those who witness the scene surely ran away. “run along hmm?”
The bully runs away. sunghoon sighs.
“you know, you don’t have to show your gun. your toy gun by the way.” sunghoon says. jake snickers.
“it gives me power and besides, everyone believes it’s real.”
“you and your obsession with collecting old guns.”
“If you fix it, it can be put into good use.” jake explains. the bell rings.
“class is starting, jay you should probably get to the nurse. after all, wouldn’t want the teacher to be distracted with the blood on your shirt and face.” sunghoon says.
“yeah yeah, i know. just cover for me if they ask.”
“as if they care about our whereabouts. every faculty member knows who we are.” jake says. sunghoon snickers.
“yeah, you’ll be fine jay.” jay rolls his eyes.
“just fucking get to class idiots.” jay says. as for you, you left earlier since you didn’t want to be late to class. sure, you were sort of a normal typical school girl but you didn’t exactly want to fail your classes and get scolded by the teacher so you went to class early.
sunghoon and jake enters the class. these two have been in your class since forever, they didn’t know you because you were usually quiet and always listening to the teacher. you were a good girl per say. since it’s jake and sunghoon, they only went with their fangirls. they loved the attention and didn’t care about other people who put no effort to pay attention to them. you do have a crush on jake but you knew, there was no way you’d ever cross paths with him.
It was lunchtime and since you were all alone, you’d spend your time having lunch on the rooftop. It was like your comfort place. you made your way to your locker to dump your items and grab your lunch box. nothing really special ever happened but you did look forward to after school where you’d watch the football/soccer team play and practice.
you were an assistant since the coach was your dad and since he was the coach, the both of you always went home together, which was great since you didn’t exactly like staying at home all the time.
“Here, my little angel. a small task for you to do,” your dad hands you a name list. you rolled your eyes.
“dad, you’re the coach. aren’t you supposed to be doing the name calling?”
“(name), you should be acquainted with these boys. after all, i am their coach.” your dad says.
“fine, i’ll make this quick since i have to study.”
“my angel, i know you don’t always study after school. especially, if it’s practice day.” your dad smiles. you blush. your dad knew you best and of course, he knew you had a crush on jake. the captain of the team he is coaching.
your dad did feel a sense of protectiveness over you considering he isn’t dumb and has heard the rumours of jake being a playboy and also part of a gang. he didn’t want you to be associated to someone like jake but who is he to stop you from falling in love.
the football team finally came out of their locker room after changing into a more sporty attire. you breathed in.
“alright, boys. (name), will be here to call out your names. after all, she’s our assistant.” your dad says.
“yes, coach.” the boys say. you called out each boy’s names.
“jake?” you say. silence. you called him again and to no avail he didn’t respond back.
“sorry, coach.” jake ran. you marked him down for being late. your dad ruffles your hair.
“jaeyun, you’re the captain. please show a good example to the others.”
“sorry, i’ll come on time.” sunghoon pats jake’s back. the training starts and of course, as per usual, the boys would be gossiping and chattering amongst themselves since this is what they did every practice session.
“Hey cap, where did you go?” minho asks. jake smirks.
“oh, i know that look. you madeout with another girl didn’t you?” wooyoung says.
“well, he is sim jaeyun. certified playboy and only the best captain.” sunwoo says (before anyone says he is sunwoo from the boyz). The boys laugh and as for you who overheard, just silently sighed.
‘why do you even bother liking him (name), you’ll only become one of his playtoys.’
you simply just grabbed your sketchbook and started working on your art project. the wind blew in your face and since your hair was down, you decided to tie up your hair in a messy bun. it caught a few of the boys at the field's attention.
“you know, i realise i never played with her.” jake says. sunghoon turns his head over at your figure. he snorts.
“you know, she likes you.” sunghoon says. jake smirks.
“oh really?”
“yeah, she sort of stalks you around the school. i’m pretty sure she’s in our class too.”
“interesting.” sunghoon notices the look on jake’s face. he smirks.
“bet you could get in her pants and break her heart?” sunghoon says. jake almost laughs out loud.
“of course, it’s my specialty.” jake says. the training went on, then the coach declared a small break because they had been going at it for 3 hours non-stop. jake grabs his bottle and settles down next to you. he looks over your shoulder and notices the drawing you did.
“nice drawing.” you squeaked and jumped back clutching your chest.
“hi, i’m jake but sometimes people call me jaeyun.” jake smiles as he holds out his hand for you to shake. you weren’t so sure what kind of cruel joke jake was playing but it felt like the air shifted when the both of you met. “I see, sorry i scared you didn't i. i can’t help but notice the drawing. Is that supposed to be me?”
you looked down at your sketchbook and up at jake. your eyes widened before you hid your sketchbook.
“sorry, it must be weird to have someone draw you.” jake chuckles at your words.
“not at all. In fact, it looks really good. you really captured my face really well, how long have you been staring at it to perfect the drawing hmm?” jake teases. You were at lost for words that your jaw drops. “I’m kidding.”
“jake, let’s continue practicing!” wooyoung yells.
“Coming!” he turns back to you. “stay a little while hmm? i need to give you my number.”
“w-what?” jake runs off before you could even question him.
your dad comes up to you.
“i see my sweet daughter has finally captured the attention of our captain.”
“Dad!” you whisper yelled. your dad chuckles.
“but be warned, i’m sure you’ve heard a bunch of rumours about jake. whether it is true or not would be up to you because you are the one allowing him to get close to you.”
“dad..”
“i’m looking out for my daughter. my only precious daughter. after all, i have to act like both like your mom and your dad. I play two roles.”
“mom would have been proud, dad.” you say. your dad smiles.
“she would but she would also scold me because i’m allowing you to hang out with boys.”
“you know she would’ve encouraged it dad.”
“you’re right.” your dad ruffles your hair, “okay kiddo, you should continue with your drawing. you have to submit it soon.”
“it’s due in a week dad.”
“yes but drawing takes a lot of time and detai-” you showed your dad your half completed drawing. “okay, nevermind. Take your time. you have really inherited your mom’s talent for drawing.”
“thanks dad.”
“coach! can we play a round now?” jake yells.
“sure but be fair. maybe play some rock, paper scissors to choose the teams. it’s fair and efficient. then the loosing team can learn from the winning team’s strengths and try to improve on yourself from there.”
“alright, thanks coach!”
“do you think any of them know that i’m your daughter?” you asked your dad.
“oh sweetie, i think if any of them knew i was your dad. they’d try to get far from you. after all, i do scare them.”
“great decision dad.” you gave him a thumbs up.
“i only want what’s best for my precious girl.”
time flies by quickly and before you know it, it was already 6pm. the boys went to shower to rinse off the sweat before going home and possibly doing homework or playing games.
“hey, do you wanna walk home together?” jake asks. your heart races. walking home? with jake? alone? a dream come true-
“let’s go (name)- jake! i thought you went home already.” your dad says.
“oh sorry coach, i was supposed to meet up with (name). I wanted to walk her home. are you and (name) going home together?” jake curiously asks. your dad turns to you.
dad please
“her dad wanted me to drive her home since we are friends but since you’d like to accompany her, i’ll just tell him that her friend is walking with her home.” your dad says. oh thank god, your dad certainly was the best. jake smiles.
“oh really? that’s great.” jake turns to you, “you wanna walk together still? the coach is friends with your dad and i’m sure since the coach trusts me, your dad would trust me too right?”
“y-yeah.” curse you, jake. you hated how you always stumbled over your words when you talk to him.
“Perfect! Thanks coach for telling (name)’s dad!”
“any time.” your dad says. is jake really that dumb and he doesn’t realise your dad was standing in front of the both of you, “but can i speak to (name) first?”
“Of course, coach.” jake says. your dad gestures for you. you went over.
“make sure he doesn’t try anything okay?” your dad whispers.
“dad!”
“i’m just looking out for you, it’s a dad instinct.”
“dad, i love you but let me have a small chance, okay?” your dad sighs.
“alright angel, i’ll make dinner. want anything in particular?” he whispers.
“the usual?”
“alright kiddo.” your dad turns to jake, “alright, see you tomorrow. we have training again in the afternoon.”
“yes sir!” jake says. with that, both you and jake left. it was a casual walk home, jake asked you question about yourself and you’d answer them.
“your dad sounds like the nicest person.”
“thanks.” you literally just met him and he’s your coach but okay.
“what about your mom?”
“Hmm?”
“you haven’t really mention much about her.”
“ah, my mom passed on.”
“oh, i’m so sorry.”
“it’s fine.”
“If you don’t mind, can i ask how?”
“i was supposed to not actually be born. i was a premature baby and had very low chances of survival after i was born. my mom unfortunately passed on due to complications after giving birth to me and i somehow actually surpassed all doctor’s expectations of survival. everyday, i grew until i was healthy enough to go home with my dad. my dad does call me a miracle baby because maybe my mom died because she wanted to save me.”
“wow.”
“Is it too much info? i feel like i ramble a lot everytime i talk about my life.”
“no, your story was touching.” jake smiles, you smiled too. After walking for a while, you finally made it to your house.
“well, this is my house. thank you for walking me home.” you say. you were about to walk off when jake holds onto your wrist.
“wait.” you turned to jake. “(name), i know it’s a little early but i really liked spending time with you. would allow me to court you?” you wanted to faint on the spot right there then.
“jake.”
“please?” you shyly nodded and with that jake pecks your cheek. “oh thanks for your number, i’ll text you later. goodnight!” jake runs off. you giggle. oh you were down bad for him.
you entered your home and the first thing you see is your dad with a big smile on his face.
“I heard what happened! this calls for a celebration with alcohol!”
“dad, i’m a minor!”
“right, i’ll give you grape juice and i’ll drink the wine.” you laughed at your dad who excitedly ran to get the items for dinner.
- jake❤️: goodnight cutie ;)
your heart soars at jake’s text.
- you: thanks jake, goodnight
- jake❤️: see you tmr and maybe in your dreams ;)
- you: i’ll see you tmr and no i won’t dream of you
- jake❤️: are you sure ;))
- you: shut up you tease
- jake❤️: oh baby, i’m joking
- you: fuck you
- jake❤️: oh? the good girl knows her bad words? baby, you should watch your language
- you: what are you going to do?
- jake❤️: shut you up with a kiss for saying bad words ;)
“oh god, jake!” you hit your pillows before hiding your face.
- you: i said you can court me but that doesn’t mean you can kiss me idiot
- jake❤️: oh baby, i’m sure you’re dying to kiss me
- you: not at all
- jake❤️: ouch, alright :( see you tmr i guess [11:45pm]
why did that sound so bad. maybe you should apologise
- you: hey jake?
- jake❤️: yes baby?
- you: typing…
what should you type…
- you: goodnight jakey❤️
your heart pounds as you watched jake typing in his message.
- jake❤️: fuck, you made my heart skip a beat, baby. now, i really can’t wait to see you.
- you: sleep jake -_-
- jake❤️: fine :(( sleep well my love❤️
“FUCK.” you screamed.
“(name) language!” your dad yells.
“SORRY DAD!” you yelled back. you looked back at the last message jake sent and finally laid on your bed.
“i am so down bad.” you told yourself.
The next morning, you had rushed out because well…you wanted to meet jake.
“see you in school later, dad, i love you!” you threw on your shoes and opened the door, only to be greeted by jake. your jaw drops.
“hi.” jake says.
“hey, jake. umm, what are you doing here?”
“i umm, wanted to walk with you to school.”
“oh, sure. let’s go then.” you smiled. both you and jake went to school together, you were happily talking to him and he listened attentively. at some point while you were talking, jake holds your hand.
“you are so adorable when you ramble on and on.” jake says. you blush. jake swings your hand around as you made it to school. everyone and i mean everyone who saw you two enter the school together started gossiping.
“oh poor, (name). she doesn’t know jake is a playboy.” one of the girls say. they truly pitied you, you were about to become one of jake’s next playtoy.
jake brings you over to your locker.
“i have last minute morning practice today so unfortunately, i won’t be in class. you won’t miss me right cutie?”
“not at all.” you say. jake clenches his heart.
“ouch. i’m very hurt, i thought you’d miss me.” you pushed jake slightly.
“just go.” jake smiles and waves to you before he leaves.
you decided to settle at your seat, a few girls come up to you. they looked worried for you.
“(name), you should be careful. jake is player, he doesn’t look around for commitment. he just wants to play with your heart!”
“he is not going to, he walked me home yesterday.”
“your dad allowed him to? doesn’t your dad know how he is, after all he is the coach.”
“he says jake is a nice person, he is hard working too on the field and you know i trust my dad.”
“alright, (name). if you say so, we just don’t want you to become one of jake’s playtoys. that label itself is just bad.” you smiled at your classmates.
“thank you for warning me. I’ll handle this myself and not get too close to jake.” you say. the girls nodded and just got ready for class.
3rd period, you settled down on your chair and jake pulls the chair beside you.
“seat taken?” jake asks. you shook your head. “perfect, get to sit with my favourite girl.”
my favourite girl…right he was seen with other girls. you felt your heart break. you frowned and jake notices.
“hey, what’s wrong?”
“nothing.” you simply say and jake takes notice.
“(name), i’m sure you’ve heard of those rumours…while yes, i possibly talked to other girls, i didn’t break their hearts by leading them on. I rejected them because i had my eyes set on someone.”
“who?” you asked, slightly annoyed.
“you.” and…there goes your heart. jake surely knew a way with his words, pure talent. the teacher enters the room and so you got your books out. however, as you got your books out, your pencil drops. you went to pick it up but so does jake.
“thanks.” you say. jake doesn’t answer, instead his finger lays under your chin. he pulled you closer.
“can i kiss you?” in class? well, you’ve never kissed anyone so this would be your first time, getting kissed by sim jaeyun, your crush. you nod slightly and that’s all it took for jake to lean in.
thank god, you were sitting at the back of the class. once jake pulls away, he leaves one last peck on your lips and sits straight up so the teacher wouldn’t suspect a thing. during the whole class, jake held onto your hand and you felt like your heart was going to burst any second now.
he writes something down and slips the paper on your desk.
- be mine? yes or no?
you smiled reading the note. you looked around the class and then turned to jake once you realised everyone was still concentrating. you left a peck on his cheeks and whispered
“yes.” jake smiles. something about this made his heart leap, unlike the other times he played with the girls. end of class, you packed your stuff and then jake pulls you to where his friends usually sat for lunch.
Once you made it to the table, all eyes were on you. jay, who you shared 1 class with and he was your seatmate, had his eyes widened.
“(name)?”
“hi jay.” you smiled. jay darts to look at both you and jake and finally the intertwined hands.
oh no, (name)...you are going to get played. jake does not like you like that.
“boys, this is my girlfriend, (name).” jake proudly says. sunghoon smirks, something that got you curious, why was he smirking?
“you finally decided to settle down?” jay asks.
“yeah, i thought it was immature of me to fool around with girls. Besides, (name) was the one who made me realise how wrong i was.” jake turns to you. you blush under his gaze. what you don’t fail to notice is how none of them believed jake’s words. Not after sunghoon was smirking at you like how he was whenever he started a bet with jake.
Unlike jake and sunghoon, the other 5 boys actually know that their coach was your dad. they would’ve told the both of them but…where is the fun of letting them discover themselves and get what they deserve?
“hey dude, can i talk to your girl for a bit?” jay asks.
“for?”
“Well i need to ask her about homework.”
“you can ask her now with me around. what’s so important that you want to have a private conversation with?” jake says.
“I borrowed her notes and it’s in my locker. I don’t have any other classes with her after this and we also have practice after school.”
“alright.” you went to stand up and follow jay but jake holds your hand.
“are you going to watch us after school?”
“of course.” you smiled. jake smiles too and lets your hand go.
once you left, heeseung folds his arm.
“she’s your new playtoy?”
“yeah. how was my acting?”
“Perfect.” sunghoon says. Both jake and sunghoon high five.
“hyung, you’re going to regret whatever you are doing.” sunoo says. jake rolls his eyes.
“oh really? but i’ve been doing this to other girls! and yet.” jake fake pouts, “i have no slightest bit of regret at all.” jake’s tone drips with sarcasm. sunoo rolls his eyes.
“jake hyung, sunoo hyung is right…you don’t know what you’ve started.” ni-ki says.
“why the fuck are you guys on (name)’s side? she’s just another normal ugly ass girl.” sunghoon says.
“Forget it. Do whatever you want but don’t come running to me and jay because you messed up. we have our reasons why we never dared to hurt (name).” heeseung says before he grabs his bag and leaves the cafeteria.
“why is he so dramatic.” jake says. the only one laughing was sunghoon.
“both you and sunghoon hyung can eat. i’m going to catch heeseung hyung.” jungwon says.
“Me and ni-ki are going to the field.” sunoo says. ni-ki follows sunoo.
As for you and jay…
“(name), i know you’re a really sweet girl but i’m sorry jake is just to play with you.”
“i know.”
“then why are you still with him?”
“because i like him.”
“(name), don’t tell me you are willing to get your heartbroken by jake.”
“yes. maybe, if i get my heartbroken by jake, i’ll finally realise how dumb i was to fall in love with him.”
“why are you torturing yourself.”
“It’s not easy to forget about someone who you’ve been crushing on for over 2 years.”
“of course but are you willing to actually get hurt by jake? If you’ve had a crush on him for 2 years, i’m sure that’s not just a simple crush.”
“you’re right, it's not but i’m willing to hurt myself in an exchange to forget about him completely.”
“why don’t you find another way?”
“jay, thank you for caring about me but i’ll just go with whatever i’ve planned and besides…i’ll get to sort of experience dating jake before he decides to ghost me.”
“yeah but the coach might actually get mad at jake.”
“he doesn’t know that your coach is my dad?”
“Well…him and sunghoon, we kinda just want the both of them to realise it after he breaks your heart. I just wanted to make sure you are okay with jake breaking your heart.”
“Perfectly fine, jay.”
“alright, don’t tell jake and sunghoon about the coach being your dad. it will be more satisfying to see both of them regret their actions.” you giggled.
“some kind of friends you guys are.”
“Well…you should know what we do.”
“I do.”
“Does your dad know about it?”
“Yeah but he doesn’t want to expel you guys because then the soccer team would turn to shit. After all, all 7 of you are the star players.”
“yeah, the coach sure is great.”
“he is my dad after all. He is the most reasonable man out there that i know, which is why my mom married him.”
“I bet anyone would be lucky to marry or date you.” jay says. you smiled.
“not really. i’m just a hopeless girl stuck in an unrequited love.”
“shall we go back?” you felt someone hold your hand and you could tell who it was. you turned to jake. he was fuming.
“Were you flirting with my girlfriend?” jay scoffs at jake’s words.
“I wasn’t, we were talking.”
“looked a lot more like talking. you were smiling and laughing.” jake says. jay puts his hand up.
“you already know i have a crush on my neighbour. I wouldn’t flirt with anyone else.” jay says.
“yeah and you should know your place.” jake glares at jay. you tugged on jake.
“let’s just get to class. it’s starting soon.” jake’s eyes softened after they met yours.
“alright.” both you and jake left the area.
it was about a week later whilst dating jake is when you noticed he started to kinda ghost you. as expected, jake really didn’t care for you. you bitterly laughed.
- you: babe, wanna go out on a date?
- jake❤️: practice, sorry baby. I’ll make it up to you :(
it usually went like that, you knew jake didn’t have practice. He was probably out either doing some illegal shit or he was looking around for another girl to fool with. you walked over to the field to watch the boys practice like usual. Plus, your dad was here and you kinda needed to ask him for some help.
“dad, do you have extra pads?” you asked. your dad smiles.
“forgot to bring some today?”
“no, it came earlier than usual.” your dad grabs his bag and hands you a pouch. He usually brings this pouch around because he knows your period doesn’t really come around in a regular pattern.
“thanks dad. also have you seen jake?”
“ah your boyfriend? unfortunately, it seems like he isn’t here today. I guess he is coming late. Maybe you could look around for him?”
“Alright.” your dad ruffled your hair.
“my big girl, you have a boyfriend now.” you smiled.
you went to the bathroom to deal with your period. after doing so, you went to wash your hand and left the bathroom. then you heard some weird sounds from the staircase nearby. this staircase was also where you and jake did some things…
you turned your head to face the staircase. There you saw jake with some girl. she was familiar, that’s when you realise she was from the cheerleading squad. someone prettier, of course. you felt your heart break every second you stood behind the wall witnessing everything. once jake stops, he leaves one last kiss on the girl’s lips.
“I have practice, beautiful.” the girl whines.
“jakey, please i need you.”
“coach will get mad.”
“will he get mad or are you scared your girlfriend will notice you aren’t there?”
“I could care less about (name).”
“why are you even dating her? you should date me instead.”
“oh baby, i would but you know i don’t do strings attached.”
“then break up with your girlfriend.”
“one more week baby and then i can fool around with you.” jake says.
“urghhh, i hate the bet you and sunghoon devised.”
“sorry baby, rules are rules. besides, sunghoon said he’ll give me $1000 if i date (name) and make her believe so.”
“Well she does believe it so why don’t you break up with her?”
“soon. I have to go now.” the girl sighs.
“Fine but can we at least have sex after your practice?”
“your place?”
“yeah.” jake kisses her again. part of you felt sad, part of you wanted to cry but the whole of you wanted to scream at him. get mad, yell at him. Maybe it was just because it was that time of the month but either way you knew you were mad at jake. you rolled your eyes and went back to the field.
“hey (name).” heeseung smiled. he notices your frown, “what’s wrong.”
“I found out jake is cheating behind my back.”
“shit, are you okay? i’m sorry this happened to you.”
“It’s okay, i know who he is and what he is like. i’m not a fool, i’ve been crushing on him for 2 years and obviously know he is a playboy. I’m just mad at myself for still falling in love with him.”
“so, what are you going to do?”
“act like nothing happened.”
“what why?”
“make him feel guilty. when we break up, i cry, beg him to stay and he would say some mean shit. maybe do some bad shit for him to make him regret.”
“isn’t your dad going to do something?”
“i don’t know. he already knows jake and what he does. he won’t be surprised. of course, as a dad instinct he maybe might punish him or be harder on him but jake will just think it’s because he is the captain.”
“why are you so calm about this?”
“it’s something i knew was too good to be true. jake would never go for someone like me.” you sighed, “i don’t have anything. I might even be worse than nothing. I just-” you felt yourself choking up. A tear falls and you wiped it away as you bitterly chuckle.
“I was never a confident person but i guess dating jake for a week brought out a little confidence in myself.” you took out a cigarette stick out from your pocket.
“you smoke?” heeseung’s eyes widened.
“yeah, when it gets too stressed and right now…i kinda need it. after what i saw.”
“does your dad know about this?”
“no. i don’t always smoke and if i do, i go out to the park to do so.” jake runs into the field. you hid the cigarette bud into your pocket.
“hi baby.” jake pecks your lips. you smiled.
“love, you don’t have anything after practice right?”
“I do, i have some physics homework to do.”
lies. you are going to fuck someone.
“oh, i was going to invite you over to watch a movie with me, since we haven’t had a date in a while.”
“sorry, baby. There are tons of homework that the teacher gave.”
lies again. did he forget we are in the same physics class? the teacher didn’t even assign any homework.
you pout.
“then, it’s okay. maybe another time.” you smiled. you were about to leave when jake holds your wrist.
“where are you going? aren’t you going to watch me practice?”
“I need to study so i have to run to the library.” jake pouts.
“aww but i wanted you to watch.”
“there’s always another time.” you pinched his cheek and giggled.
there won’t be another time…
heeseung watches you leave, he turns to jake.
“where were you? coach was looking for you.”
“with aria. You know the usual.” jake says. heeseung rolls his eyes.
“let’s just practice. I have no time to educate and lecture you on breaking (name)’s heart.” heeseung says. He runs over to the middle of the field where the others were.
another week passes by, jake breaks up with you. Like you predicted while you begged for him to stay, he said a bunch of mean things.
“you thought i’d actually date you? (name) you’re not my type and you never will.”
but hearing him actually say it was painful. you were mad at him but you still had feelings for him, you cried when you came home. since there was no practice, your dad was home. he comforted you, bought you ice cream so you could soothe your heart with it. He hugged you, made you feel better.
when you went to school the next day, the news you heard was shocking but yet you expected it.
“Did you hear? jake is banned from playing in the next few matches.”
“yeah. doesn’t he practically breathe soccer? that’s his passion. why did the coach just ban him.”
You went to class. jake was sitting there, the spark in his eyes was gone. you sat away from him, you were concentrating on the lesson that you didn’t notice how jake was now staring at you.
He noticed how had lost the spark too. you didn’t wear a smile anymore, your face was neutral. The bell rings and you packed everything before leaving the classroom, jake followed you. then he noticed you were going to the back of the school where nobody was. A lot of the rebels went here to smoke and do other various things but he didn’t expect for you to go here.
He hides behind a wall. You threw your bag on the stacked cardboard boxes, took a cigarette packet and a lighter. you placed the stick in between your lips and lit it up. you inhaled the smoke and exhaled it. jake was shocked. he noticed someone else joining you. It was jay.
“so, he finally broke up with you?”
“mhm.” you simply answer. You wore a blank face.
“you did hear he was banned from playing for the next few games right?”
“yeah.”
“did you ask your dad to do this?”
“no, i’m not a vengeful person. jake broke my heart, cheated on me and well technically i wasn’t even his girlfriend since i was a bet. I know how much soccer means to him but i can’t stop my dad. like i told heeseung before, he may be a coach but he is still my dad first and so gets overprotective if i cry or get hurt.”
“next match is sort of important, think you could convince your dad to at least let jake play?” jay asks.
“I’ll try, my dad doesn’t listen to me until he sees me genuinely happy and now he’s seen me cry my eyes out because of jake.” you sighed, the smoke surrounding you. “Wait till he finds out i smoke.” you groaned imagining the lecture you’d be getting.
“you didn’t start smoking because of the break up, right?”
“It increased more after the break up, but no, i started because i was stressed.”
“you know…i never thought someone like you would try smoking.”
“neither did i but here we are.” you hold out a stick, “want one?”
“nah, i’m good. i don’t really want to try smoking. my dad smokes and well you know i’m trying not to be like my dad.”
“Mmm that’s good for you. yejun would be happy for you.”
“if she notices me.” you snort.
“she does, you’re just being a shithead to her. don’t be a jerk and act on your feelings.”
“I know, i know.” jay sighs, “well i have to go. Duty calls.”
“mmm, bye jay.” you say.
jake’s jaw clenches so you were the reason he was banned from playing? all because he broke your stupid little heart and the coach was being a protective dad? jake scoffs. he decides to just face you. he walks closer to you.
“so you’re the reason why i can’t play?” jake says. your eyes widened.
“what do you mean and why are you here?”
“you asked your dad to ban me from playing some of the most important matches?”
“jake, you know i’m not the type of person to do so. i know how much your games mean to you. i never wanted you to be banned.”
“yeah sure.” jake rolls his eyes. he looks down at the cigarette stick you still had in your hands. he grabs it and throws it to the ground. “don’t even try to ruin your own life because i will be ruining yours from now on.” he glares at you.
as jake starts to walk away…
“i have already ruined my own life. you don’t have to do the job. well, actually you already helped. after all, despite me loving you with all my heart, i was just a bet to you and i’m not your type.” you say as you grab your bag and shoving your shoulders past jake’s.
jake felt his heart burn, why did your words hurt him more than it should. Shouldn’t he be the one upset since your dad did ban him from playing?
another few days pass by, jake did make your life way harder than it should. he annoyingly called and teased you in class. obnoxiously laughed with the students on purpose so you couldn’t study, which made you stand up and pushed the chair in way too hard that it startled everyone. you went to the library after and it was so much better. Then he did one thing that was just downright horrible.
“jake, can you please just fucking stop it?” you say.
“stop what? your dad banned me from something i love because of you so you will suffer.” jake says.
“I said sorry and i can’t control my dad. he is stubborn and determined to make me happy after you know what.”
“what? your mom dying? because of you? you killed your mother right?” jake says. your heart drops, the room fell silent. jake’s jaw drops after he realises what he just spewed. you throw him the scariest glare. “hey, wait, I didn't mean it like that!” you ran out of the room, tears pouring out of your eyes.
as previously mentioned, you told jake the reason as to why your mom died. later further on while you were dating jake, you revealed that you felt guilty. you always blamed yourself because you thought you killed your mother and your dad wasn’t a fan of that. he was sure your mom wouldn’t put the blame on you just because she died due to birth complications. hence, your dad vowed to take care of you with such care and love as your mom would have. Of course, you still didn’t tell jake that your dad was their coach.
At the moment when you gave jake the nastiest glare ever, he remembered what you said. he put two and two together and just instant guilt filled him. jake instantly starts running around the school like a mad man trying to find you to apologise to you. he found you on the school’s rooftop.
“(name).” he softly says. he slowly gets closer to you. you were bawling your eyes out, jake wraps his arms around you. as much as you wanted to push jake away for hurting you, you couldn’t, he gave a sense of comfort to you. being in his arms was all you ever wanted and you hated yourself for that.
jake whispers nothing but apologies and soft comforting words. you really hated this. why were you so love with him? funny, love, a word you were afraid of at first. you knew you were in deep shit once you found out not only were you infatuated by jake but you loved him, a lot actually.
“i fucking hate you.” you cried out. jake holds you tighter.
“(name)...”
“I hate how much i love you. I hate that everything you do makes me love you more. I hate how no matter how much you hurt me, i still love you.” you pushed jake with all your might, jake sits next to you. “tell me why i’m such a fool for falling in love with you? knowing you don’t love me back.” you turned to look at jake with tears in your eyes.
“(name), i’m sorry-”
“just stay away from me. the more you stay, the more i fall for you and you don’t love me so what’s the point of you staying? to hurt me more?” jake stays silent and you scoffed.
“I guess that’s your answer. if you’re not leaving, i will.” you stood up slowly. jake stands up too.
“i’m not leaving you.”
“jake, i’m tired of this. i want to move on. can’t you just say you hate me and go?”
“no.”
“jake please don’t make this hard on me.”
“I don’t want to say i hate you and move on (name). I love you too.”
“jake please don’t.” he kisses you. fuck, why did you give in so easily. he sighs after pulling away.
“I realised while not being able to train, i got bored and the only thing that was on my mind was you. you were the only other thing keeping me sane.”
“you could’ve went out and played with other girls.”
“that’s the thing, while i wanted to do so, i couldn’t because all i was reminded of was your smile, your face and your personality. nobody would blatantly push me away playfully when we get more intimate all because they were shy. i loved that about you as a partner. every almost intimate thing we’ve done, you shyly pushed me away and it made me feel more in love than i should.”
“so what?”
“what i’m saying is…i fucking love you (name) and i swear on my soul that i’m not just playing around with you.”
“i can’t be so sure you know. after all, i was a bet previously.” jake curses under his breath.
“i-i’ll get sunghoon to apologise too.” jake thinks for a second, “or i’ll spend the $1000 on you. just for you.”
“jake. I don’t need you to spend money on me.”
“o-oh.”
“all i need is for you to genuinely be yourself and cut all those girls off. as much as i know you’re a playboy, i want to date someone loy-”
“DONE!” he shows his phone to you. everything single girl he played with had been blocked and even the cheerleader. he also deleted all the chats previously he had with them. “can i love you now?”
“jake, it’s seriously going to take a while.”
“then i’ll wait until you trust me.”
and it was true. jake stayed true to his words and never played around with any girls in your grade anymore. eventually, seeing as to how you were happier now, your dad allowed jake back on the team. though, your dad still kinda gives jake the stink eye since he still broke your heart.
little did your dad know (yet). that the cause of your happiness right now was the same cause of your heartbreak and pain. a month passes by, jake was in the locker room putting on his soccer boots. you entered the area and sat next to him.
“you came to see me play babe?” jake asks.
“yeah, class ended earlier than usual so i thought why not see my boyfriend play.” he pulls you onto his lap.
“mmm boyfriend huh? i don’t remember asking you out yet. did you just assume that baby?” you blush.
“No.” jake pecks your lips.
“kidding. i am yours. with or without labels. besides, doesn’t the husband and wife label fit better.”
“sim jaeyun!” you slapped his chest. jake laughs. the laughter dies down and it was all silent. jake leans closer and kisses you. your hands wrapping around his neck, smiling through the kiss. as the kiss deepens, you hear someone clearing their throat. you pulled away only to be stunned to see your dad so you scrambled off jake’s lap, tugging on your school skirt and fixing yourself. jake’s breath hitches.
“dad.” you say. your dad switches his gaze from you to jake.
“as (name)’s dad, i just want to say don’t break my daughter’s heart again. as your coach, i want to remind you, no making out in the locker room.” your dad comes closer to pat jake’s back. “come on captain, everyone is waiting for you on the field for practice.” your dad smiles at jake before he leaves to get back to the others.
jake stands up.
“umm, your dad caught us…you know…kissing. He’s not going to murder me in my sleep right?”
“no, unless you made me cry again.”
“does tears of pleasure count?” you smacked jake’s arm.
