Taeil doesn’t like who he is

He’s the leader of a group of boys who barely even know today’s date

How could he ever like who and what he is?

he wakes up every morning in the middle of Seoul with nothing but a frown on his face

because he knows that he won’t enjoy the day ahead of him

It starts with meeting Ten and his recruits

It ends with Johnny and Taeyong complaining about everything he could do better

It feels like sometimes, he’s a bit hopeless in his position as the leader of NCT

“fearless” they call them, but Taeil the furthest from fearless

all that Taeil has ever wanted to do is protect the people around him

and that’s what he plans on doing, even with bad press for himself

Taeil always wanted to return NCT to the triad it used to be

No one really knows what Moon Taeil looks like outside of NCT which he thinks is good

Effectively Taeil can go whenever he wants, whenever he wants without causing harm

Especially on nights where he’s drinking away his problems, it’s a good thing

He likes this bar near to Sejong university which is usually quite quiet

Aside from the occasional university student who just act like he isn’t there

He’s still young enough to seem like a student who secluded himself enough to be unknown

and that identity is one that he takes on whenever anyone approaches him from across the bar

Which is rarely, surprisingly

Girls and guys alike don’t like a 24 year old who looks like he hasn’t slept in days, if you didn’t know already

Taeil is sipping on some whiskey when the seat next to him is taken one night

It’s only around eleven but Taeil is so tired he can barely even hear his own thoughts

He’s been using the whiskey to sooth the problems for far far too long now

Ten is telling him that there’s no one willing to join NCT

Johnny is telling him that there’s no incentive to the younger members

Taeil needs a distraction and that distraction ends up being you

this isn’t how his usual evening where he finds someone goes though

He’s not pulled out of the bar and into a cab having his scars traced and hair pulled

Instead he finds himself listening to you recite a quote over and over with a strange look on his face

He has no damn clue who you are or what you’re doing

But he thinks you have the most beautiful voice

so much so that when you stop talking and shut your eyes to try and memorise it, he asks you what the quote is from

‘it’s from pride and prejudice.. have you read it?’

Taeil feels intimidated by the English words but shakes his head no

‘what does it say in korean?’

‘A person may be proud without being vain. Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us’

He realises you’re smart unlike the others here and takes a liking to you

The way you brush your hair softly back from your eyes and how you smile gently

as it turns out you’re studying at Sejong university, you’re almost finished with your degree

but Taeil has a moment of panic when you ask him what he’s studying

and he realises it’s stupid, but he tells you that he’s studying history to not feel awkward

Taeil stupidly thinks that you won’t like him if he isn’t like you

He doesn’t feel like it’s all bad because he ends up taking your number at the end of the night

and he sleeps easy, for once, with something else on his mind

like.. when are you going to call him?

when are you going to text him back?

the next morning is the answer, and you ask if he’s free that evening because you’re bored

Taeil wishes he knew what bored felt like

He meets up with you and forgets his responsibilities with NCT for a while

You’d have never recognised him once he left his apartment in Seoul and met you at the park you suggested

His bright yellow jumper and yellow hat that matched somehow made him blend in

he feels like that kid who got to live his university dream for once and he loves it

he also.. quite enjoys the sound of your voice and your laughter and your gaze on him

He’s a leader, he’s learnt to be loud and have his voice heard

But when he’s with you he can go back to being quiet and listen to you

he loves it all so much

the relationship between you two starts off as friends

Taeil is so happy to have someone he can call a friend that it’s unreal

Even if his only friend doesn’t know one thing that’s true about him

Other than his name, age and how he feels about you

Taeil knows how badly he fucked up with you by telling you he was a university student but it’s too late to take it back

Especially when you’re hanging out with him in the library and one of the staffs is carrying out checks

they ask to see his university card and he has to lie that he left it at home

Somehow it works and they tell him to remember it next time

that’s when Taeil starts to suggest that the two of you avoid university places

Or rather he says he’d prefer to do less educational activities and spend more time with you

He doesn’t know why exactly it came out like that but it did

Taeil realises a week or so later that he said he wanted to spend more time with you because he wanted you

Not the act of having a friend, it was the effect he had on you

But all lies have to be outed eventually, Taeil is hanging on with everything he can for you not to find out he’s Moon Tae Il

but in the meantime, you two are becoming closer and closer each day

You think you know everything about him, and you almost do

Just not his identity or job or anything like that

Not what his real person could do to you

Or hurt you, even

Taeil’s crush becomes no joke when he finds himself becoming protective

It’s nothing that he’s noticed happening to you, but he realises he cares when he starts checking you’re locking your doors

That you don’t leave windows open

‘because you never know who’s looking for a place to break into’

He’s not stupid enough to think his life won’t interfere with yours

But it takes a few months for one of his rivals to find you

Luckily the two of you are together and when the guy approaches you Taeil stands in front of you

You have no idea what’s going on but Taeil is getting angry and the other guy too

It’s the first time Taeil has ever been anything but happy and calm in front of you

When the other guy leaves you’re a bit shaken and taeil knows he has to be somewhat honest

He says that it’s someone he’s not at all friendly with but you’re not stupid

You leave it for a couple of days before you’re with Taeil again and he kinda..realises you’re off

He asks you what’s wrong and he’s surprised to hear you ask

‘what’s NCT?’

and he panics because he has to try and explain everything, he doesn’t even answer you

not until you carry on and leave him no other choice

‘Online it said they were a triad.. why was that guy asking you about a triad?’

Taeil realises he has to either be honesty or he has to lie to you again

And really, lying to you is exhausting and he hates it so so much

So he goes for a third option which he makes up on his own

‘I don’t know, I really don’t. I think he was trying to scare me’

Taeil isn’t exactly telling the truth but he isn’t directly lying either

Truth is he has no idea to the identity of the man who came up to you two anyway

he’s glad you accept it, but he knows it’s ok your mind a lot

Because whenever you two are out together you’re always checking people

You seem on edge and taeil feels bad for it

He made you worried about all of this and he needs to make you feel safe

To protect you, like he was always meant to do with NCT

So he decides to take you out one day to ask you something

Well, tell you that he has feelings for you that are beyond friendship

You’re meant to meet him at a park nearby but Taeil decides to meet at yours instead

He hears from Youngho that someone is planning something around Taeil

Who heard from Chenle when he was trying to plant some recording devices in his home

so Taeil is in a little bit of a panic mode about you

He’s so paranoid in fact, when he sees you open the door and you’re wearing the most beautiful yellow dress

Which coincidentally match the bunch of tulips which he got for you

he just says it to you straight

‘I’m NCT’s leader’

It’s not what he meant to say but it was the first thing on his mind

That and how beautiful you looked but.. Taeil knows what he has to do

He realised that he couldn’t be in a relationship with you and confess unless he was honest

As much as that could take away from him

You’re unmistakably a little confused by his words and you invite him in to tell you everything

which he does

He tells you how he’s been in NCT since he was young and when the old generation started to die

He was elected as the new leader

and that he has all the other members under his control

That he didn’t want to tell you in case you saw him differently

He tells you that he didn’t want to be known as Moon Tae Il but rather just taeil

The guy who likes weird movies and enjoys strange music and doesn’t have too much stress

Even if you’re annoyed at him, it’s a lot to take in from one confession

He doesn’t even get to tell you that he likes you

Partially because he doesn’t want you to return to him with pity for him you know?

So you don’t see him for a few days to think over things

Taeil isn’t going to leave you on your own, don’t worry

He makes sure you’re okay and if he’s not available he has Youngho or Taeyong do it too

Most people are far too chicken to have a run in with Moon Tae Il so they leave him alone

And most importantly you too

He doesn’t expect to see you back for a while though

One day when he’s on the way to the library to sit a few desks away from you

You bump into him and he has to hide the smile on his face from finally getting to see you up close

Absence really does make the heart grow fonder

‘Did you not think that I’d notice you and the other two always following me around?’

Taeil feels a bit awkward after that

‘Thanks, though. For making sure I was okay. You made me feel less scared, like I was being protected’

And if you want to tell Taeil that you’re okay with what he does that’s up to you

But he’d be the best boyfriend

And an even better protector for you

Because no one fucks with Moon Taeil

Unless he’s in love with them, of course
