#the way this so completely applies to amber too... smh

You are making people want to kill me. It’s not just a tabloid, it’s not just some story, you are making me scared… And you’ve created it for what? Because you’re bored or because it sells your papers or it makes you feel better about your own life?

a submission from tex!

this is literally word for word, I just need to show yall how cute this is lmao also, tex..knows me so well???  -ams

#MakeMysPlaced-ZenCanon2k17 okay but y'all would legit be so cute???

Karaoke 24/7, singing duets constantly, especially Paramore, also y'all would always be trying to out-quote the other in musicals (You showed him In The Heights and y'all battle to see who can remember the most lines starting from the beginning of the play) (y'all actually made it all the way through once and immediately started doing this with every other musical ever)

-You sang the entirety of the Cell Block Tango, complete with choreography and facial expressions, and he was a mix of impressed and terrified (his favorite one is the Arsenic one)

-You changed his ringtone for Jumin to There! Right There! and the poor boy cried so hard from laughing that Jumin ended up having to call you (whoops you’re laugh crying too)

-You still don’t know how but somehow he always manages to harmonize perfectly with you???

-He sang Evermore to you once and you c r i e d

-He gets you backstage passes to every musical you two go to (even the ones he’s not in??? How did he get these w t f)

His flirting becomes too much for you? He tones it down immediately. He goes from 100 to like 50 instantly. He just wants to make you comfortable, and if he is part of the reason you’re Uncomfortable™, he will fix it Immediately.

He doesn’t like having a whole lot of junk food in his fridge (*side glances at his beer and water phase*), but he will ALWAYS have all your favorite ice creams and fruits.

-In the same thread, he used to never have basic ingredients like??? Buddy didn’t know the difference between regular and powdered sugar s m h

-He got better when he found out you like to bake

-Now he always keeps the pantry stocked with sugars, flours, and he even gets you the really expensive candy coatings???

-He has to taste test everything to “make sure it’s not poisoned” (SURE)

He will Spoil You™ to the best of his abilities.

He likes to ride his bike up into the mountains and hang out up there and he takes you along with him one time. He heard you’ve never been camping and his jaw dropped (listen. He ran away from home at a young age so he probably slept on the streets for a while. He considers having a tent over his head lucky.) Y’all ride up there on his bike (SLOW DOWN ZEN IDC HOW EXCITED YOU ARE J E E Z), and have a Blast™ setting up the tent and exploring the surrounding area.

-He calls you over at one point while wearing the biggest shit eating grin just to point out a piece of amber on a tree

-he’s sleeping on the couch when you get home

-You absolutely make him sing The Campfire Song Song

-he hates it R E V E N G E

-you point at everything even vaguely resembling a wolf and say “Look out it’s The Beast!”

-Zen is Not Amused™ at first, but then he goes along with it and tries to protect you like the princess you are

-“I’ll save you! The only beast that can have you is me!” (You hate him) (You love him)

You two have matching outfits. Fight me on this one he would do it.

-His favorite part of your wardrobes is your couple’s leather jackets and matching helmet sets. You have each other’s names and hearts and roses embroidered on the backs of the jackets and always wear them on bike rides.

-Your helmets are complementary colors (N E R D S)

-You know his white party outfit? You have a hella cute black dress with chains that match the ones on his jacket

I know this is in every Zen matchup ever, but it’s still true. You two take SO. MANY. Pictures together. Except you always try to find him in unflattering positions (JK its impossible)

You’re his lock screen, and a pic of the two of you cuddling is his home screen. He legit almost made a phone case out of the two of you (you stopped him two seconds before he ordered it).

Remember when I said you two had matching outfits? Your phone cases match too smh (y’all are so embarrassing) (its great)

He found out you like to go swimming and loses it.

-“We should go swimming together!”

-Remember how he’s basically an albino? He comes out of the apartment smelling like 3 bottles of sunscreen. you go to indoor pools from then on

-Bc of this, he is always on top of re-applying sunscreen on time and such so you never get burned

-He loves helping you put it on your back (he tries to be smooth and kiss your shoulders as he does) (he gets a mouthful of sunscreen and nearly gags)

-You’re still laughing when you get to the pool

-He totally does the “here, wear my shirt to cover up” thing. But it’s just as much to shied you from other guys as it is to protect you from The Beast™

-C O N T R O L T H E B E A S T

-Can and will carry you around the pool on his shoulders

-He tries to impress you with a graceful dive (but he ends up bellyflopping instead)

-save him

-You start a pool noodle and water gun war (you win) (you never let him live it down)

-Y’all get kicked out for being too rowdy s m h

-Afterwards, you go out for ice cream bc it’s still Hot As Hell outside

-You finally get home and help each other scrub off the sunscreen and get it out of y’all’s hair *wink wink*

He asks you out in the cheesiest way ever. It’s after one of his musicals. He invites you backstage and you find that his dressing room is filled with roses, and taped to the mirror is a note that says “Here is a rose for every day that I wished you were by my side. Amber, will you grant my wish and be mine?” You turn around to find him holding a single rose, which he offers out to you with a “Please?” You run into his arms, hugging him tight. To this day, he can’t walk by a rose without smiling.

For your birthday, he has a bouquet of roses delivered to your apartment (he had mandatory rehearsal he couldn’t get out of), and a small card. “I’ll love you till the last rose dies.” You look through the bouquet, expecting to find a fake rose hidden in there somewhere, but find none. They’re all real, and while fresh, probably won’t last to the end of the month. Your heart sinks to your stomach, and you spend the rest of your day in a slump. Regardless, the two of you had plans to go out to your favorite restaurant that night, and you pulled yourself together to get ready. You were nothing if not true to your word, and even if he did break your heart, you’d still enjoy a final meal with him. You arrive at the restaurant and are escorted to your table, not looking Zen in the eye. You order drinks, and then he pulls out a thin, rectangular box, adorned with a ribbon and bow, and hands it to you.

“What’s this?” you ask, but he just smiles and nods towards the box. You oblige and open it carefully. Inside is a golden rose, glinting in the dim lighting. You gasp softly, holding the flower delicately.

“It’s the last rose, my love. Happy birthday.”
