rich!jk x middle-class!reader (f) genre/warnings; crazy rich asians!au, nyc!au, chaebol!jk, strangers to lovers, a meet-cute, jk is disgustingly rich, soft slow-lovin sex, lots of profanity, alcohol use w/c; 1.5k a/n; dreamy sighs. remember vic’s black card couple? It totally brought me back to how fun and amazing that series was. I really really enjoyed writing this. thank u for submitting!
“Do you… need help?”
“Uh, no?”
You’re not an employee, but you are an avid Target shopper. The person in question is buying a lot—no, a fuckton of things. The most expensive and best-smelling fabric softeners, over ten pints of Halo Top ice cream, and a twenty dollar toothbrush holder you’ve been eyeing for weeks in the hope it’ll go on sale.
The man looks absolutely clueless, not because he doesn’t know what to buy, but it seems like he doesn’t know how to end his Target run. Fear not, you’re a dedicated master of controlling your stress-induced Target runs, so you do your good deed of the day and decide to help him out.
“Are you furnishing an apartment?” you ask lightly, eyeing copious amounts of cookies and ramen that’s tucked in the very bottom of the cart.
“Um, yeah,” he rubs the back of his neck, looking down sheepishly on the polished white floor. He’s dressed down in a plain white t-shirt and black sweatpants, but you’re impressed that they’re actually clean and creased nicely. “My mom already got me the apartment, and I already told her that’s too much. I told her that I could do everything myself, but she’s so insistent.”
“Ah, overprotective mother?”
“You have no idea,” he grins, “if you have any pointers for a clueless bachelor living alone for the first time, I’d appreciate it.”
This man is sneaky. Under the guise of being completely helpless (and a bachelor, no less!) you can’t help but aid this man.
Most importantly, his smile is completely and utterly heart melting.
With a fake cough, you pat your stomach to quell the aching butterflies smothering your chest. You dare another look into his pretty brown eyes when you quickly spit your name out, which causes Jungkook to smile even wider. “Well Jungkook, for starters,” you pull up your Target app on your phone, “do you have a Red Card? It saves you money on any Target purchase.”
“No, but I have a black card?” he turns his head in confusion, not understanding the use of Target’s loyalty program, “that should work too, right?”
You simply laugh, and reason with him that you’re thinking of two completely different things.
It’s the first time you’re spending a night in Jungkook’s apartment. He never lets you over, reasoning that your apartment is warm and smells like sugar, like what a home is supposed to be. You should be excited to be nosy in Jungkook’s apartment and see all his cute baby pictures and the type of tea he drinks. Normally you’d be over the moon, but you’re love-drunk as shit and all you want to be is wrapped up in your boyfriend’s arms.
He doesn’t bother turning on the light as he weaves through his apartment building, holding you securely in koala style as he makes his way to your bedroom. It’s a blur as you’re currently occupied by the way Jungkook somehow manages to grind his stiff dress pants against your thinly clothed core, so you don’t see much of the rooms. You can only make out the faint scent of leftover lavender incense as Jungkook doesn’t waste time throwing you on his plush bed, following soon to press his body against yours.
“You’re completely, and utterly amazing,” he spreads kisses throughout every part of your body, irons them throughout your skin with warm presses of his champagne coated lips, “gonna love you so good tonight, baby.”
You simply moan in response, shimmying out of your little black dress and tilting your head to give Jungkook more access to your skin.
These past three months have been nothing short of a blissful whirlwind. Jungkook, who moved into the city as a hopeful bachelor, ironically ended up being cuffed by you after two weeks of not-so-accidental Target runs and lunch dates.
As much as you’re enamoured by his sweetness and eagerness to learn how to live on his own, he’s inspired by your independence and charm. A self-made woman, he calls you, proudly showing you off to your friends whenever he can. Oftentimes you try to reason with him that he’ll be self-made too, as he’s working on a start-up that’s just inches off from launching. Every time however, he kisses your forehead and simply says that it’s just not the same as you.
“So lucky to have met you,” he sighs, pumping his dick languidly as he admires your glistening body, “I think Target is my favorite store in the world. Who the fuck needs Gucci or Yves?”
You giggle deliriously, thinking he’s just saying silly shit as he always does. Your giggles soon hasten into whines when you feel the slick head run up and down your engorged folds, eager to have that full and warm feeling eat you up. “Koo,” you run your fingers through his cropped dark hair, “please, fuck me good.”
As Jungkook slowly but firmly pounds you into the mattress, your tipsy haze has you thinking how tonight feels different than most. For one thing, you’re in his apartment. It feels special, like you’ve managed to break through another layer of the reserved yet open Jeon Jungkook. Sure, he’ll tell you from top to bottom his top 10 Greatest Anime Betrayals, but so far he hasn’t told you much about his family and life before coming to the city.
Again, you think it’s the alcohol, but it isn’t just the sex, it’s the vibe. It just feels different than going home to your too-tiny one-room apartment. How is his sex playlist echoing through his walls so seamlessly? It makes The Weeknd’s I Feel It Coming sound so melodious, and you’d never admit that to him. Even the sheets feel luxurious, as if they’ve been crafted by the finest seamers in the country.
When the both of you climax and nuzzle against the sheets, you stop your weird mid-sex overthinking and just let yourself love. Jungkook wipes the sweat off your brow and uses cucumber-scented baby wipes to clean upstairs and downstairs. There’s nothing different, there mustn't be. It must be extra special because you’re with Jeon Jungkook, the most amazing man in the world.
You don’t even remember falling asleep, the mattress is just that damn soft.
The next morning, you have a slight headache and your mouth feels like paper. Smacking your tongue against the roof of your mouth, you force yourself out of bed. Pawing at the nightstand for your phone, you’re met with a cool paperweight.
Your eyes bug out as you see that a gold bar is hugging the sensitive documents against the sleek black table. Sparkly, but still dull enough to look authentically expensive. Is that real gold? You have half a mind to put the bar in your mouth and give it a little bite, just to check.
Wide awake, you chance a look at Jungkook, who’s still sleeping soundly and facing the other side of the bedroom. Careful not to wake him, you press a single toe on the cool espresso colored hardwood and move to find his dress shirt to put on.
Buttoning the silky material enough to cover your bits, you step out the door to see if you can make breakfast.
You scream. Where the fuck are you?
“The hell, babe?” Jungkook is all but calm at your shrill attack, his groggy morning voice that normally has you melting all but ignored.
“Jungkook,” you whisper in fear, unable to turn around and face him, “whose house did we break into last night?”
This is the penthouse, AKA, the most expensive fucking floor in the whole building. There are wall-to-wall double windows, with light-blocking curtains that open with a motion of your arm. The television is the width of the wall, with speakers embedded into the ceiling. There’s a wine fridge as tall as Jungkook mounted on the kitchen wall. The countertops are a milky white marble, matching the floor that’s so shiny you can see your coochie clearly from the opening of your button down. You promptly close your legs.
“Wha?” Jungkook steps behind you, a sheet wrapped around his waist to establish a modicum of decency. Now that it’s morning, you can clearly see that the eggshell sheets look so buttery they must be Egyptian. “I told you, I live here.”
“That’s Swarovski Crystal,” you point accusingly at the million-cut vase holding an abundant amount of sunset orange tiger lilies on the kitchen counter, which you’re absolutely sure do not grow naturally in this country. “I’m pretty sure I saw Michelle Obama with that vase on an episode of Home and Garden.”
“It was a gift,” Jungkook shrugs tiredly, and you already know he wants to pull you back to bed.
“Jungkook,” you grit, “what the fuck? Do you sell drugs?”
It’s meant to be a half-joke, but you falter slightly when you see Jungkook deflate. Maybe he hoped you’d be more casual about this, but from the look on your face, Jungkook deduces that it’s wishful thinking. He opens his blanket, and pulls you inside, relishing in the warmth of your body.
“I… have some explaining to do,” he mumbles dejectedly, nuzzling his nose into your hair.
Happy Birthday to the raven-haired, doe-eyed boy, whose a little bit of smile lifts me up when I'm feeling down. Whose calming voice gives me peace when I'm so lost. Whose a message encourages me to always go forward and never give up. Whose just the whole existence makes me sane. Love that boy with all my heart. And appreciate him so much. Happy Birthday Jungkook and thank you for existing 💜💜💜💜

Author’s note: This is my very first JK post. Thank you for reading!
Your ringtone and alarm must have decided to conspire together the night prior since both were screeching at the unconscious depths of your brain to bring you back to reality. Checking the caller ID wasn’t required – there was only one person who would give you such a rude awakening.
“Hel-“
“Snow! Finally! What took you so long?”
“... it’s seven thirty. In the morning. You told me to be up by eight.”
“But I’m hungry,” his whining on the other end was nearly as bad as the alarm, one you shut off with a slam. “I want bean sprout rice with kimchi, galbi and cold cucumber soup. And pork tonkatsu.”
Your face took on the same expression as an emoji with three short lines for its eyes and mouth. “Will that be all?”
“One cappuccino too, please.”
“Alright Jeon, thank you for ordering room service,” sweet sarcasm dripped from your tone like honey, “your food will be delivered shortly.”
Unbeknownst to you, your muffled groan was audible through the speaker, making him chuckle.
***
A white pot of violet orchids perched on the small corner of your designated desk reminded you that your boss wasn’t as annoying as you thought. Jeon Jungkook didn’t buy gifts for you often, or even at all, so to say you were surprised by it six months into your time as an assistant was an understatement.
It confused you from the very beginning as to why a professional photographer had placed a job offer for someone to be his administrative assistant. You had soon discovered the reason after taking a curious peek into his online portfolio and resume – the number of pictures and videos he had taken during his time as a freelancer, all organised under specific categories you might add, starting from before college to various art galleries he had featured at, had made him one of the most sought-after photographers in your small town.
Weddings, parties, galas, magazine covers, news coverage, birthdays, family portraits, Christmas or Halloween... the list was seemingly endless. For someone at the tender age of twenty-two, he had a dream he set out and accomplished, but with the rise to fame came hectic schedules and tight deadlines, which was the entire reason you were there.
Saying “no” to events meant denying himself the source of his rather large income. Jungkook became aware with his increasing popularity that he needed someone to manage his time for him, answer calls for commissions, pen down his arrangements on a planner, freshen up between shoot sessions and made sure he ate three square meals a day. In essence, you felt like weren’t his secretary so much as you were his maid. You just thanked your lucky stars that your uncle’s chef expertise had rubbed off very well on you before you moved out of your home.
A combination of convenience and cooking skills were the main selling point for him to take you in immediately, not the degree you had in music and composition you actually poured your blood, sweat and tears into for four years. “Convenience” referred to the fact that your new apartment sat directly opposite his, yet his still insisted you go over five days a week to keep him, more correctly his kitchen, company.
Metal creaking jolted you out of your thoughts, stare shifting from purple and white petals to the figure gliding past your desk after Jungkook exited his studio, coming to a stop in front of you to shoot his smirk your way.
“Ready to go, snow?”
Your compulsion to roll your eyes at the nickname was overpowered by shoving a planner you used for him into your work bag. The only time you remembered him calling you by your actual name was when you had first met him along the corridor. Winter had overtaken autumn in November, the same month you moved in, snowflakes stuck themselves into your eyelashes and hair, refusing to melt and causing him to call you out for it.
You reviewed his schedule for the day after slipping into his car. Words you’d scribbled in black informed you of the location you were headed for the day; a magazine shoot for three important businessmen, who had gone from creating codes for protecting computers from malware to developing an artificial intelligence personal assistant to help the disabled, particularly those who were illiterate.
“Did you bring everything?” Jungkook spoke over the classical music streaming from his speakers, casting a glance at you briefly.
You peeked into a backpack you always brought along with you. “Water bottle, fan, spare batteries, extra SD card, and–“ you jabbed a thumb over your shoulder “–your tripod’s in the trunk.”
“And my camera?”
“Back seat. Or attached to your neck.”
He chuckled at your bluntness, “You know me too well, snow. How about lunch?”
“Lunch?” The grip you had to hold the book open went slack, thoughts picturing his fridge that you knew could use refilling, “I didn’t have time to cook this morning. You’re almost out of food, by the way.”
“Hm…” four of his fingers drummed in a wave pattern on the wheel, eyes fixated on the road, “then let’s eat out for today. Oh, and we’re going shopping after this, so add that in.”
“Shopping?”
“I’m attending a gala one week from now,” the words had you scanning the calendar for the exact date to write it down, “I need a new suit.”
“If you say so. Where’s the gala going to be held?”
“Luxe Resort.”
The five star hotel’s name would have made anyone else choke on air, but not you. Accompanying him extravagant places were something you had gotten accustomed to in knowledge of his line of work. He could knock on your door with tickets to New York, Milan or Paris and you wouldn’t even blink.
“Got it.”
Sky blue reflecting off the glass panels of the building’s exterior with steel lining the edges greeted you upon stepping out of the outdoor, sheltered carpark. Still, your time to admire the company’s name etched in gold on the glass double doors was cut short in order to pull the backpack and tripod, both of equal weight, over your shoulders, trudging behind him while frowning at the black leather strap he slung around his neck. His camera was the only thing he willingly carried with him.
Entering the reception with his long strides paired with his usual confident swagger caught the attention of the lady behind the counter, and this time you did roll your eyes at the wink he gave her in thanks for confirming the appointment. A fake smile pulled the corners of your lips when he slipped the guest ID lanyard over your head with an affectionate ruffle of your hair.
“There you go, snow. Now follow me.”
Once you reached the studio, you fell into your usual routine – Jungkook shaking hands with the set designer and models, you setting up the tripod where the camera was fitted on top. There were no interactions with anyone except those who approached you first. The models were especially off-limits, as well as those with a higher-up position who visited the set just to monitor the progress.
You positioned yourself in a corner at a distance from the rest of the staff where you didn’t bother them, but close so you could help your boss. This was him in his element, peering through a lens, directing the positions of the models in that polite yet slightly authoritative tone, making requests for adjustments to lighting, searching for the perfect angle and shot size.
Tripod standby came next, the part of the shoot where Jungkook transferred his camera to and fro from the stand to hand-held shots, you adjusting the height according to what he wanted, then pulling it away entirely if he didn’t need it.
It was in the switch from group to solo shots did he need you to be on what you deemed “assistant duties”, because nothing irritated you more than him snapping his fingers at you, a sign he wanted a drink from his water bottle. Gazes of those around you burned the same way your cheeks did watching you wait on him to finish taking a gulp, a second pat on your head prompting someone to murmur behind you Is she his assistant or his girlfriend?
You weren’t sure which was worse.
The end of the shoot came precisely when the hour and minute hands signified one on your watch, everyone thanking each other for their hard work, models clapping Jungkook on the back or shaking his hand as he promised them he could be back the next time they needed him. None, save a mussed-hair stressed intern who gave you a thumbs-up, spared you a glance while you packed up, trailing behind him to the car after depositing the lanyards.
“Where to now?” You sighed at him settling in the driver’s seat, placing the tripod in the backseat carefully.
“Shopping, remember? Seokjin said Jewel Mall sells the best suits.”
Three digit numbers slashed across price tags in bold set alarm bells off in your head, but it was his bank account taking the hit and not yours, so you voiced out, “Okay. You’re the boss.”
***
More concerned stares were thrown your way, this time by the attendants stationed around the suit shop who watched the sole patron place blazers and pants over your outstretched left arm. After six, you lost track of the number, busy hoping your glare burned through his button-down shirt every time he had his back to you.
The fanciful changing rooms gave your feet welcome relief as you sank down into one of the cream couches, all of his choices laid out next to you to be handed to him one by one. Jungkook wasn’t kidding about the whole “personal assistant” deal. You just hadn’t see it coming that it included this, not as you picked at the gold fabric lining the exterior of a throw pillow.
You should have felt out of place in your casual attire – white shirt, light wash jeans, sneakers and clover green jacket – though you learnt three months into the job that the workers cared more about the person with a heavier wallet and sparkling credit cards filling the spaces between them. Piano music streaming through the speakers softly, a song you recognised to be Nocturnes in E Flat Major Op. 9 by Chopin and Rubinstein, relaxed your stature that little bit more into the back rest and had your hands gently tapping on the top of your jean-clad knees to the rhythm.
Till the curtain of Jungkook’s changing room was yanked aside with a dramatic flourish.
The number one reason females you met in his photo shoots stayed was because they were makeup artists, but being in the background, you observe their eyes trailing onto your boss and staying there, whispering to each other behind cupped hands to hide flushed cheeks. Because of one simple fact, a fact your imbecilic heart couldn’t deny since the first day you met him in the corridor.
Jungkook was undeniably more handsome than you gave him credit for. Watching him then, donning a navy blue blazer and matching dress pants in the same white button-down, your vital organ couldn’t help its little stutter. How he hadn’t dated anyone was a mystery to you; he had the ability to charm anyone into falling for him.
“How do I look, snow?” Long, slow steps accompanied the equally dramatic sweeping of his hair away from his forehead, coming to a stop inches away from you with a smirk.
“Try the rest of them on and we’ll see,” your flickering gaze was in time with mentally counting those laid on the couch. “You still have eight more to go. Yay.”
“Aww, come on,” the jut his lower lip paired with large puppy eyes almost had your heart doing another flip, “would it kill you to admit that I look good?”
“Probably. But…” against your self-control, you got to your feet and helped insert the sole button into its little placement, “you’ll have to find someone else to be your assistant when I die, and I don’t want them to go through that sort of pain, so yes,” you sighed, “you don’t look half bad.”
The effect of his scoff was diminished by the smile perking the corners of his lips up. “Half bad? Please. I’m handsome. Say it.”
“For real?”
“Say I’m handsome.”
“Why?”
One tug on your waist had Jungkook’s breath fanning your face, any distance between you eliminated, “Say it.”
His touch seared through your clothes, translating into rose clouds traitorously dusting the apples of your cheeks, silence stretching for a prolonged period of time where none of you were able to break eye contact, you being much too distracted by the sudden deafening pound in your ears to do anything.
When your brain could resume its normal function, you quipped, “You look better in a hoodie.”
His groan and complaint about your stubbornness made you beam for the first time that day.
***
Twelve straps threatening to pierce through the sleeves of your jacket had the glare returning to the crease of your eyebrows. Jungkook had finally made his mind up to buy three suits. The first in navy blue you refused to admit he looked half-decent in, the second in black and the third in sea green which many other guests who weren’t him couldn’t pull off, according to a cashier who dared to blatantly flirt back.
His shopping trip didn’t stop there, evidenced by three bags decorating each of your arms like they were branches of a Christmas tree. A new winter coat, a flannel, a couple shirts, and two pairs of jeans nestled themselves in soft white tissue and weighed you down. Your own bag was the lightest thing on you, resting on your back so it didn’t get mixed up in his purchases, jostling between your shoulder blades with every movement.
Plastic bags hanging off the crook of his fingers soothed your annoyance just a little. He was nice enough to carry his own groceries but busy enough to let you organise them for him in his refrigerator, tapping a finger to the space between your narrowed eyes for you to loosen up.
You took the liberty to pour your irritation out on the stand-up piano back in your living room, taking full advantage of the forte and crescendo printed against the score sheet stored in the back of your memory, then disregarding them altogether in the next few bars in your refusal to play softly. Only by propping your phone on the leather bench beside you were you able to hear it buzz over the keys, eyes widening at the notification that wasn’t from Jungkook.
It was your other source of income – people who commissioned you to score their published, online comics or animated videos for YouTube videos where they credited you at the end – a job where your college degree came into play. A quick jab of the pad of your thumb to the fingerprint passcode later, you were reading the author’s stamp of approval of the music file you had sent to him two days ago, the first draft he referred to in the current message asking you to finish it quickly because he loved it and wanted to listen to the whole thing.
You abandoned the piano, tucking white jade keys beneath a velvet cloth, in favour of the keyboard in your studio. The same file the author cited on your monitor hiked up against the wall displayed colourful round-edge rectangles while you triple-checked the plug connecting your keyboard to the recording app.
Hours into the process of playing around with your equipment and instruments, hands only leaving both when you made notes to a hardcopy sheet music for piano you’d edit digitally on a later date, a melody one notch louder than the violin strings through your headphones and coming from behind you had you spinning in your swivel chair, just to receive a full frontal of Jungkook’s smoulder where his shoulder braced against the door frame.
“You look adorable while you’re working, snow.”
How he took advantage of you leaving your gate open for him wasn’t surprising anymore. “Exactly how long have you been standing there?”
“Five minutes,” the photographer crossed the distance between you in three long strides, but your gaze trailed to the bay window where sunset painted the sky in streaks of gold, realisation hitting you of how late it had become.
A ceramic turtle paperweight almost toppled over in your frantic scramble for his notebook lying on a file of old score sheets. Scribbled in neat handwriting on his to-do list was Complete video of photo collage for a young girl’s birthday, whose parents had kindly requested of him through a phone call you received.
“You’re done with work?”
He was a blur of black in plopping down onto the cream love seat, leaning against the L-shaped corner of the desk. “Yup, are you?”
“Almost.”
The notebook was discarded back on the wooden surface to unplug your headphones and switch to using two speakers resting under the monitor when you saw his curious eyes wandering to the play button.
You merely gestured to the mouse in silent agreement, wheels of the chair moving you aside so he’d have space to sit in front of the screens. It was the first time you could actually see how someone reacted to the music and nothing else besides it, rather than just give you feedback in the body of an email, and it had butterflies flitting around inside the confines of your stomach.
A worse reaction came three minutes and forty-five seconds later, which was the entire duration of the song, your pencil clattering to the pieces of paper as a sudden weight dropped itself onto your shoulder.
“It’s amazing,” he grinned, fluffy locks tickling the exposed skin of your neck and shell of your ear you failed miserably to ignore, “you’re amazing.”
You managed a short huff, “Compliments won’t make me cook your favourite.”
“I mean it,” Jungkook punctuated each word more firmly. “You’re talented. Always have been.”
You barely dared to move. Eyes flickered around the room like candlelight to find something interesting to watch but they fell on his hand, noticing how it lay limply in his lap, fighting the sudden urge to slot your fingers through the gaps in his digits to see whether they’d fit by gripping the edge of your table till white formed around your knuckles.
Then, quietly, “I still want curry, though… can you cook curry?”
The usual annoyance in your sigh was gone thanks to those butterflies perching on the edge of your heart, “Okay. For you, Jeon.”
He lifted his head with a smile you couldn’t see, “Snow?”
Three inches separated your faces when you turned to him, shutting you up for a second. You were so close, his charm took effect in the way you could almost count each of his midnight lashes the edges of his dark bangs fluttered against, the adorable slope of his button nose leading to his petal lips that you would kill yourself to admit appeared tantalising.
“Y-yeah?”
“You know you’re my plus one for the gala, right?”
That, you didn’t, but it sent a shockwave through your vital organ for the butterflies to jolt away. “You… could have told me that sooner.”
Jungkook had the audacity to shorten the gap by an inch for you to see stars glittering in his chocolate irises, “Why?”
“I need a dress.”
Crystal chandeliers, glass flutes of champagne and small portions of fine dining on china platters flashed through your brain as fast as camera shutters clicking at the remembrance of the five-star hotel’s name. Nothing in your wardrobe was even close to their standard of formal attire.
“Alright, we’ll go back to Jewel tomorrow,” his smile was a little too easygoing compared to the slight furrow of your brows.
“I can’t afford that type of dress.”
“Then I’ll buy it for you,” a casual shrug, “no big deal.”
“I can’t let you do that either,” your frown deepened. “Never mind. I probably have an old dress somewhere I can–“
His warm lips chastely pressing themselves to the middle of your forehead came without prior warning. You went silent for a different reason this time, completely, utterly speechless in the wake of his actions, capable of doing nothing except stare at him with your mouth identical to that of a goldfish.
If Jungkook was affected too, it didn’t show in the smile dimpling the sides of his cheeks, “I’m buying it for you. End of discussion,” his large palm ruffled your hair affectionately, trailing down to ghost against your jawline. “Gosh, you drive me crazy sometimes, you know that, snow?”
Only after he exited the room did the person manning the controls in your mind thaw from the frozen state his kiss rendered it in, his words registering within five seconds and it took you half that time to leap out of your seat after him, your indignant yell echoing down the hallway,
“I drive you crazy?”
***
Jungkook pulled your hands away from the price tag you’d snatched up the moment you approached the first gorgeous garment on a rack an attendant led you to, turning your widened eyes from the three digit number to his.
“I already told you I’d pay, didn’t I?” A nonchalant tilt of his head towards the dresses was useless in soothing the nervous thrum of your heart, “Go ahead. Try them on.”
He settled on a white leather couch in the middle of the circular changing room, the effects of the role reversal crashing over you like tidal wave to freeze you in place between the floor-to-ceiling mirror and the door. Three beautiful pieces hung from hooks nailed into the wall on transparent hangers, waiting for you to try on, though the soft, pliable material between your fingertips nearly had you bolting out of the mall in fear of ruining their luxuriousness.
The first you pulled on was a black off-the-shoulder with a pleated skirt, the top half hugging your silhouette not tight enough to suffocate but not loose enough to enjoy parading around in it for a whole evening. Looking at your skeptical expression frowning down at the garment told Jungkook all he needed to know. The second one was white and had thin spaghetti straps pressing themselves into your shoulders, flaring out to an A-line skirt from the waist down, yet your boss ushered you right back into the cubicle on account of getting something that could keep you warm so no additional jacket was necessary.
All doubts gathered from the first two garments erased themselves when the final one settled around your form. Pale blue was calming to the eyes of everyone who you’d come across two weeks from now, lace going over your left shoulder to give the illusion of a strap, the rest of the smooth fabric modestly covered your chest down to your knees. The only part of the material that cinched around your waist flowed down the skirt in the same direction as the lace.
“Um…” you squeaked in the silence, a tad louder than the classical music streaming through overhead speakers, “Jeon?”
Footsteps shuffled on carpeted ground, two gentle knocks against the closed door separating him from the view of you that he probably wouldn’t recognise, “Everything okay, snow?”
Fabric pinched between your thumb and index fingers reminded you that this wasn’t a dream. “I think this is it… yeah. This dress will do.”
His chuckle was sweeter than the B major key still playing above your heads, “Are you gonna show me?”
Panic had you whipping around, one hand flying to the handle to double check the lock, the other grasping the hem to pull it up and off of you, “Nope. It’s a surprise.”
“But that’s not fair, snow,” being temporarily blinded by the blue coating your vision in tugging the dress over your head didn’t stop your mind from seeing the pout in his whine, “I let you see me in a suit.”
“Too bad,” your giggle resonated with the clang of hangers together as you hid the garment between the first two you tried on. “Be patient.”
You sped past him the moment the lock clicked open and granted you access to the outside world, heading to the attendant who had helped you out earlier where she waited by the counter. Long strides quickened your pounding heart – you wouldn’t be surprised should Jungkook manage to catch a glimpse of the blue fabric she was carefully tucking into a black and white shopping bag.
“I should at least know what I’m paying for,” his quipped, eyeing the black satin straps gripped in the curve of your left palm and then the playful smile pulling at your lips, making one dimple into his own cheeks, “but okay.”
“Thank you,” you meant it with all the sincerity you could muster, the second part as well, “you can take the amount of my pay check if you want.”
“What? No way.”
“I’m not sure how else I can repay you, Jeon.”
Fingers softly grasped the edge of your chin to tilt your head up where you were granted a full view of the constellations in his irises, “First, call me Jungkook.”
You hoped your mute nod would suffice.
“Second,” he let go but intwined his digits in the spaces between your free hand to lead you both to the exit, “you can cook curry tonight, after the shoot.”
The tingling spreading up your arm affected your brain’s regular function, though it pulled up the schedule you were filling in that morning for him at your usual desk that he had a wedding shoot in the late afternoon in time for you to mumble, “Sure, okay.”
***
A combination of overhead and umbrella lights reflecting off the chandelier strung above your head cast silver flecks onto your bare arms where you bent to adjust the height of the tripod legs. What shadowed them caught your attention midway through unscrewing the tight leg locks, gaze trailing up midnight blue chiffon where it flowed from the bride’s waist like a waterfall up to her gloved hand that was sending you a small wave.
“Hi, sorry,” her name surfaced in three seconds for you to match it to her face, Jiyeon, “I saw you come in with Jungkook and I was wondering; are you two a couple?”
Scorching heat coating your face a rosy red appeared to contradict the next words spoken in a rush to amend the misunderstanding, “Oh, no, we’re not. He– he’s my boss.”
“Ah,” Jiyeon giggled delicately, pearl pink lips hidden behind her white satin-covered palm, “I see. Apologies, Joon didn’t mention anything about him having an assistant so I thought, well…”
You shook your head, “It’s okay.”
Her heels clicked against the marble floor en route to a sofa set up in front of a white wall, though she looked back at you, a gleam in her eyes made verbal in expressing an afterthought, “You two look cute together, though.”
For once, you were grateful for the distance separating you from Jungkook, leaning against a corner of the studio with his bag clutched in knuckles whitened due to your harsh grip. This wasn’t the first wrong assumption you’d experience, definitely one of the bolder ones where the models asked about your relationship status outright, but compared to the whispers of the makeup artists in the last appointment her comment had your head spinning.
Couple, dare you say it aloud yourself, had numbness returning to where Jungkook sponged his lips to your forehead the night prior. An impulse decision on his part that kept jolting you awake just before dreams could overtake your subconscious. You didn’t know what it meant, too indignant because of his final statement to question his intention behind it, not to mention the normal bickering you went back to after it happened.
A sudden possibility crossed your mind, instantly spinning the room and adding a slight stumble in your step over one of the stray wires from an extension cord on set when he called for you, ignoring his gaze searing through your skin as you hoisted the tripod away from his spot.
There was no way he liked you. You blamed the ridiculous thought on the theme of the photoshoot getting to your head.
Jiyeon’s groom, Kim Namjoon, was the next to approach you when you retreated back into the corner to tick Indoor studio off the top spot of the to-do list, your eyes scanning Beach as the next location before his polished shoes came into view.
“You must be _____,” He stuck out a hand, flashing adorable dimples straight at you, “I’m Namjoon.”
“Nice to meet you,” you smiled, “and congratulations on your wedding.”
“Thank you. Just curious, you’re really Kookie’s neighbour?”
“Yup,” a chuckle made its way past your lips, “crazy coincidence, huh?”
There was a teasing sparkle in his eyes, identical to his fiancée’s in her last comment, “Does he treat you well?”
You hummed in pretend thought, though you stuck to the truth, “If you consider going shopping with him, cooking for him everyday and managing his schedule as him treating me well, then yes.”
Loud and unabashed laughter startled you slightly, “You sound more like his wife than his assistant.”
Time was cruel in not giving you enough seconds to find a suitable response to the second romantic reference of the day, as well as not telling you that the guy in question would wrap his hand around your waist.
“Don’t worry, hyung, I’m working on that,” Jungkook shot you an equally unabashed wink, reaching out to shove his friend’s shoulder. “Not everyone decides to tie the knot as fast as you. Anyway, we better get to the beach.” A quick tilt of his head to the first hues of orange that had begun to streak through the azure sky, “Don’t want to miss golden hour.”
Said golden hour was a term photographers used to describe the sunrise and sunset, one of the perfect times during the day to capture aesthetic shots behind the click of his camera shutter. It was a silent fifteen minute drive where you perched next to him, piano keys from a song you knew to be Clair de Lune the only thing that settled comfortably in the air around you both, though you knew your boss was never one to listen to this type of music lest he was subjected to it by hearing you play from across the hall.
Your fingers itched for your stand-up instrument, but you clamped them down on a tightened grip on the bag you hugged to your chest. Noticing one of his hands resting unoccupied beneath the steering wheel left deep crescent moons from your short nails on the black straps.
Wind picked loose flyaways up where you’d gathered your hair into a ponytail upon opening the car door, and you could almost taste the saltiness of the water spraying upwards where it crashed against rocks near a harbour to the far end of the beach. Overwhelmingly bright sunshine had you facing sideways to switch your view from the magnificent blend of gold and blue to Jungkook, crouching carefully on the sand with his camera angled towards the couple, directing them in different positions with compliments you could hear over the gentle lap of waves against the shoreline.
Asking Namjoon to hold Jiyeon by the waist, then brush his hands over her cheeks, pretend to dance on the shifting sands, then dip her but nearly topple over entirely did nothing to steal your attention away from him. It took Jiyeon tapping your shoulder, asking you to help hold her bouquet of assorted flowers, that made you realise you were staring at the way light made the outline of Jungkook’s figure glow for more than five minutes.
You quickly found a distraction in white petals of lilies curving beside periwinkles and daisies. Pink and white seemed to be the theme for their ceremony even if the pictures they took had the bride dressed in blue. The soft texture and sweet smell messed with your imagination, crafting a scene in your mind in which a boy you liked in the future would present you with a different bouquet, holding it out to the shy smile that would adorn your lips.
But the fake bunch of flowers soon changed into a tiny white vase of orchids identical to the ones growing on your desk.
You blinked in time with a familiar camera shutter going off much louder in your right ear, bringing you back to reality, but seeing Jungkook’s pointing it at you had you second-guessing.
“What are you doing?”
He grinned, cheeky bunny teeth and all, “What does it look like?”
“Wrong subject, Jeon.”
The white light of the small, digital screen added an extra star to his pupils, seasoned thumbs fiddling with the buttons to present you with the one snapshot he wasn’t paid to take, “Can’t help it. You look too pretty.”
You willed yourself not to bite your lip or break eye contact, or worse, admit that it was a nice photo despite being unplanned.
“Does that mean I have to pay you if I want it?”
It was his turn to hum thoughtfully, leaning down so your faces were nearly as close as they were that night. “Just this one? How about the others?”
“There are others?!“
“I’m a photographer. What did you expect?”
His fingers brushing lightly against the shell of your ear to tuck a stray lock away sent shocks through your skin, “You’re my favourite thing to photograph, snow. I thought you knew that by now.”
Any sort of response died in the back of your throat when he turned tail to jog back to Namjoon and Jiyeon, sand kicking up in the wake of where he had been but you couldn’t find it in you to be annoyed.
Not when he took your heart with him.
***
Soft, golden lighting from the sconces in the corridor provided some clarity for your blurry vision to make out the outline of the keyhole, jamming the key in after three failed attempts. The sound of metal clicking was somehow louder that the muffled patter of rain against the building, loud enough to have the door behind you slamming open to see Jungkook, hoodie ridden up and revealing a lick of skin where his hand combed halfway through mussed dark locks of hair.
“Snow?”
Rubbing your eyes spread a dizzying array of colour behind closed lids. “Hey,” you brought your hand up for a wave, though a small yawn had the back of your wrist covering your mouth instead.
He made his way over in four strides, worry replacing the usual stars glinting in doe eyes, “You’re back late.”
A client who wanted his soundtrack to be finalised had called you in for a personalised visit in the early afternoon, unlike the usual customers who stated their comments in a bulleted point list in an email. Jungkook had understood that you were going to be gone for a couple of hours once you were done answering a few phone calls for him, half of them to arrange future shoots, the other half to confirm those you already jotted down in the calendar.
The laptop, keyboard and MIDI device tucked carefully away in your backpack weighed heavier courtesy of the rain you had been caught in on the way home. You were too tired to be irritated at the memory of said client who had fiddled around with nearly every button, more out of insatiable curiosity than the desire to find the right sound for his comic strip. You were exhausted at yourself too, for giving into replaying the main melody of the song on the keyboard each time he discovered a new sound, just to endure him saying nope, not it, next two bars into the score.
His resulting indecision had layers of additional sound you hadn’t planned to add into the music at random, though appropriate, points in time. The multicoloured rectangles on your editing software blurred together to give you a headache that didn’t leave, instead manifested further in a dull ache in your fingers from over-exertion and the chill of the storm battering against your glass windows.
A lock of your hair, slicked down by droplets of rain, was plucked off your shoulder, gripped by the pad of his thumb and index, “Have you had dinner?”
You were, honestly, too worried about the client’s greasy fingers pressing down on your precious equipment too hard to remember to eat, so you shook your head. Jungkook sighed in tandem with guiding you through the door, hand not leaving your shoulders until you passed the threshold of your bathroom and he aided you in slipping your bag off.
“Go take a shower,” it was a gentle request from concern you could now hear in his voice, “I’ll see if I can find something to eat.”
Twenty minutes later, when you had scrubbed out the rainwater from your hair and soreness from your muscles, you stepped out into your hallway, lavender and vanilla scent of your soaps overwhelmed by that of something delicious wafting from the other end.
You found Jungkook walking to the dining table, a bowl of curry from a day ago when you cooked it for dinner and another of rice placed gently beside a pair of chopsticks and a spoon. He turned to grab something else but paused in looking at your pyjama-clad self, your grey shirt advertising a black cat sticking out of a small pocket and white shorts peeking out beneath.
“I hope you don’t mind, I, uh…” a quick gesture to the food, “I heated the curry from yesterday, but if you want something else, I can order in–“
“It’s great, Jungkook,” you slid into the chair, offering him a small smile, just the tiniest quirk of your lips upward, “thank you.”
He joined you after a quick trip to your kitchen island, returning with a mug of hot chocolate brewed by hand and not the coffee machine you used for making his drinks. At this hour, food didn’t re-energise you, just warmed you up on the inside to lull you to sleep later. Yet the tiredness clinging to your half-open eyelids didn’t help in pretending that he hadn’t taken his gaze off of you.
Maybe breaking the silence would help in distracting you from that little detail. “Did you eat?”
“You came back late and you’re still worrying about me? I’m touched, snow,” he chuckled, tugging on your shower-fresh hair. “How was your meeting?”
Your shoulders slumped, recalling how you needed to clean each crevice of your equipment still sitting in your bag. “He was being… difficult. Not because he’s a perfectionist; he kept changing the sound to what he thought was nice,” you sighed. “It’s completely different from the original now, and he wants it by tomorrow night.”
“I mean,” fingers gently rubbed your eyes that had you seeing stars, “I know I shouldn’t complain because it’s work, but-”
An equally gentle tug on your wrists had you seeing those same celestial bodies in his irises, paired with an equally brilliant smile though it was meant to comfort you more than stun you into silence.
“That’s not true. You’re allowed to complain. You were there to see me ranting sometimes too, remember?”
“I guess,” you couldn’t help the pout that pulled at your bottom lip, “but it feels… wrong. I love music. I’m supposed to love my work, too.”
“I’m sure you still do,” one of his hands left yours to cup your cheek, running his thumb over the pink blush that began to spread under his touch. “It’s okay to feel stressed at times, especially when you deal with difficult people. Sure, they make your job harder, but that doesn’t mean you love it any less. Just don’t keep it to yourself.”
The downpour had quietened down to a drizzle, soothing ambient music in comfortable silence that had settled around you both that had your tired stature leaning into his warm touch, absently wondering when it had begun to feel like home.
“You shouldn’t say stuff like that…” your own voice was soft, mind hazy, “makes it hard to find you annoying.”
Jungkook laughing merely added to the ongoing music, “You think I’m annoying, snow?”
“Not…” your eyes drifted close for longer than a second, “…not right now.”
Feeling yourself being lifted off the chair and braced against the broad planes of his chest, his arms supporting you so you didn’t fall, garnered zero protest from you as you succumbed to the sleep taking over your consciousness, not before the warmth of a blanket tucked to your chin registered in your brain.
A dip in the mattress beside you preceded his hand caressing your face again, “What do you think of me then?”
Right in that moment, the answer was simple, feelings you’d thought about all day escaping your lips in a sincere whisper meant for him, and him alone.
“You drive me crazy, Jeon.”
***
Piano keys in C major streaming through the car speakers had you perking your head up where you were flipping through the schedule for that day, soft pattering of rain in the background of the track causing memories to resurface.
Jungkook’s smirk was directed at you, despite his eyes fixated on the view beyond the windshield, “Recognise this?”
It was a playlist of lofi songs you had mixed together from your high school days, per your friends’ request to make one for them to study or chill to. The earliest ones had been when you were experimenting with new equipment you were now familiar with, should muscle memory prove anything; the ones in the middle were created with inspiration from your surroundings, proven by titles such as Autumn Leaves, Train by the river and Winter Nights; those near the end lasting three minutes or longer after more thorough training from two years in college.
Uploading it to your personal Spotify account granted your friends easy access, though you didn’t know that those who followed were still listening to it in the years that had passed since you’d gone back to it, and certainly hadn’t expected Jungkook of all people to find it. Yet the melody was unmistakable and filling the chilled air around you as you continued to stare at him, unsure of what to think.
A clack of his phone resounded next to the gear shift, screen showing the first of one hundred and fifty songs out in green font while the rest were white and waiting for their turn, “I wish you told me about it sooner. It’s my favourite thing to listen to while I work.”
You fiddled with your fingers, “I forgot I had it.”
Juggling doing covers of songs with friends for their YouTube page as a pianist or drummer, preparing for finals, and creating original compositions for an incredibly talented and hard-to-please lecturer, you’d barely had time to get back to producing your own beats. Back then, you had been more worried about getting sufficient hours of sleep.
“Like I said, snow, you’re talented,” he reached over, patting the top of your head without the usual roughness. “Seriously, how’d I get so lucky…”
You pondered on what he meant by that for the rest of the trip, settling on him appreciating you as his assistant and his friend despite the corner of your heart that stood up to protest otherwise.
The adorable glass bell in the shape of a fish chimed to announce your arrival at Manggae Bakery but Jimin was already at the door to pull it open for you, excited at the sight of the camera slung around his friend’s neck.
“JK!” Said camera thankfully wasn’t squished between their chests in the hug they exchanged. Crinkled eyes turned to you over Jungkook’s shoulder, widening at your small wave. “Hi, _____!”
Jimin all but dragged the two of you over to a table in the middle of the shop, treats on display. Bright colours of the rice flour cakes resting on their stands, particularly the rosettes, were the first to overwhelm you then draw you in by eliciting hunger in your stomach currently filled with the sandwich you had for breakfast. A reminder in the form of a lilac sticky note pasted itself in the forefront of your memory to ask him for one before you left, while a real sticky note in the pages of his schedule told you that the gala was just two days away.
“You can start with these,” Jimin swept his hand in a wide semicircle towards the treats. “I was thinking you could take a pic of all of them first, maybe from different angles. There’s a wall there too–“ he pointed to his left where the tables for customers to sit had been removed, leaving space before a white brick structure with a brown window and tendrils of curving ivy from the top, “–if you want to use for individual shots.”
“Got it, hyung,” he was already fiddling with the plastic buttons beside the screen, the familiar mechanical sound of the lens zooming in reaching your ears.
A couple of red roses adorning the top of a white cake behind the glass counter had caught your eyes, till you saw the gradual approach of bakery owner through its reflection, the same grin you dared to believe was permanently etched on his lips fully directed at you.
“I’m glad you’re here, _____,” over the shutter clicking away, you heard a rustle of paper within Jimin’s pocket that he soon produced to you, save the flourish from earlier. “Do you know the company Namjoon and Yoongi-hyung work at?”
You nodded; it was hard to miss the skyscraper high glass and steel building whenever you drove to town for a shoot.
“They have a job opening for a music producer,” his index tapped the large black words printed on the top of the page. “Details are all here. You can try applying if you want. I’m not sure if you get to- wait, Yoongi-hyung said you will get to collaborate with them if you get it. Pretty cool, right?”
Silence overtook the bakery to allow you time to process this new information as well as allowed the words on the page to look like they would jump off and swallow you whole. You were blind to everything else except the feeling of Jungkook’s gaze searing a hole through your cheek, neurons in your brain screeching to a halt in their tracks the longer you stood there, numb.
You barely registered Jimin snapping his fingers alongside an excited comment of retrieving more of his creations from the back room, your eyes accidentally flickering down to the business email in (thankfully) smaller font at the bottom left of the page even though it froze your vital organ up all the same. A soft call of your name, quiet footsteps, and warm fingers softly touching the underside of your chin to lift your face up was what it took to break you out of your trance.
“Snow,” Jungkook’s voice was as gentle as the twinkle in his chocolate irises, “are you okay?”
“Hm? Oh…” you blinked, “yeah. Yeah, I’m fine.”
He hummed. “Can you help me move that table? I need to start on those individual shots now.”
“Sure, of course.”
You placed the paper deep into the pocket of your jacket, thoughts swept by an imaginary broom to clear them to the back of your mind for future contemplation, or better yet, to be forgotten.
***
The fluttering of paper caught your attention when you shoved your jacket aside. Just looking at those words on the shelf of your closet made a boulder press itself against your ribcage, threatening to crush the air out of your lungs until you hid the gift from Jimin away from your sight in a drawer. Two days had passed since you’d visited the bakery, however, another planned event scheduled precisely half an hour from the present time preoccupied your concerns more than the job opportunity.
A final check in the mirror atop your dressing table confirmed that you had put on the most expensive thing you owned, the blue shimmering beneath your warm bedroom lights. Thin, silver drop earrings sparkled in your ears, another check of your hair assured you that no flyaways were sticking at odd angles outside the intricate bun you wove your locks into, and the snow white asymmetrical peacoat made sure your boss wouldn’t have the chance to even peek at the dress before you got there.
The pound of your heart had you tripping into the short pair of white heels you pulled on for the night. If your feet were going to behave this way, you honestly couldn’t imagine spending three hours or more in those shoes on sleek, polished marble floor, but it was too late to consider changing into another pair upon hearing the door opposite your own click open.
Jungkook, somehow, appeared more handsome now in the black suit he’d chosen than he did in the changing room, or perhaps it was his effect on you that had changed from annoyance to something else entirely. It was the cliche feeling of time standing still between the two of you where you openly stared at each other, your eyes tracing the ethereal glow of his figure to the contours of his face lit by a combination of soft lighting in the hallway and the evening sun.
His fingers slid in the gaps of your left hand as if they were meant to fit perfectly, raising it up to his petal lips to sponged the back of it, “You look beautiful, snow.”
You couldn’t fight the upturn of your mouth, “I’d tell you that you look handsome, but I already did, so…”
“You said I didn’t look half bad.”
“And you don’t,” his playful scoff was in time with you looping an arm around the crook of his elbow, leading the way for him to his car.
Opulent couldn’t begin to describe the inside of the hotel when you arrived. A golden chandelier hung from the ceiling, light reflecting off each crystal onto the sand-coloured walls. White marble tiles beneath you were polished to the point where you could see your reflection. There was a waterfall with the name, Luxe Resort, written in golden cursive font against the black wall, where a few children were peering into.
A coat collection area had you pausing to remove yours, finally revealing the blue dress as you turned to face where Jungkook was waiting for you in front of the grand double doors. The gala was one of those rare occasions where he didn’t need to work – it was merely an extravagant party he was invited to, a night of fun and celebration of someone’s anniversary whom you knew to be the parents of his friend, Seokjin. Although, you doubted his friend would have the same reaction as him at the moment, the starstruck look he had on in the corridor returning to his features.
You tried to play it off with your own quip, “Alright, I admit it, you look dashing. Happy?”
Tingles spread where he slid his arm across your waist, never once taking his eyes off of you, “I’m happier that you’re here with me, gorgeous.”
A teasing smack to his chest didn’t stop his next words, or the heat rising to paint pink clouds onto the apples of your cheeks, “I mean it, snow. You’re absolutely stunning.”
Tables of fine dining lined the sides of the room boasting a chocolate fountain and fancy cocktails and other finger foods you weren’t able to name. Sparkles reflecting off an even bigger chandelier combined with other priceless gems strung on necks or circulating fingers covered by satin gloves were blinding to the eyes. Your brain reeled in thinking that the price of all the designer dresses could pay your tuition statements at least twenty times over, even as you tried to keep your eyes from widening to rival the moon each time you passed a guest with a spiderweb of jewels attached to her neck.
The grip you had on his arm was the sole thing anchoring you to reality. It felt like this place was a whole other realm of its own purely because of the grandiose facade it had, and maybe your vision was starting to get hazy from the splendour as you spotted a whole ice sculpture near the middle of the ballroom. Distracted by the decor, you startled at the call of Jungkook’s name, amusement lining his smile dimpling into his cheeks.
“Jin-hyung!” He exchanged a quick hug with Seokjin who beamed at you in acknowledgement of your presence, already tons better than the other guests who knew were silently judging you over the edges of their champagne flutes.
“JK, _____, glad you could make it. So,” a wide sweeping gesture to the rest of the room you were still trying to get used to, “what do you think? Fancy, no?”
“Very,” you nodded, “your parents really went all out.”
“Well, my dad wanted to make it special,” he turned in the direction of an older couple who, even from that distance, you could tell were looking at each other with unadulterated love. “There’s also going to be a dance later. Not just for them; anyone can join in.”
“Are you dancing?”
“Me? No,” Seokjin chuckled a little at Jungkook’s question, proceeding to eye you and him with a mischievous glint, “but I don’t see why you shouldn’t.”
“Oh, no,” you were firm down to the shake of your head, “I don’t dance.”
Music that suddenly began to stream from the small band you just realised had gathered on stage caused the surprised ah that left Seokjin’s mouth, glancing back at his parents who were making their way to the dance floor, among other people who were intrigued by the music.
“Well, I better go help my brother take some nice pictures of them,” the elder winked at your boss, straightening his blazer. “They won’t turn out as well as yours, but I’ll try. Enjoy the party!”
You were in the middle of wondering how a pair on the dance floor managed to pull off a flawless spin and dip when a hand came into your line of sight. Jungkook’s smoulder was purposeful this time, a butterfly fluttering around your stomach prior to his next request.
“Shall we?”
“Didn’t you hear me earlier?”
“Just one,” his arm and gaze were unwavering, “I promise I won’t step on your feet.”
Your mouth dropped open a little, “Does that mean you were planning to?“
“No. I plan to sweep you off your feet instead. Now,” he peered just that little bit closer, “may I have this dance, snow?”
It was the chance to hold his hand again, you tried to convince yourself, that you found yourself being led to and then around the marble floor. He was gentle in the way he held your hand and waist, guiding you into a twirls, some with the full extension of his arm before he was pulling you back in. You should have known the stars on the horizon making an appearance in his doe eyes would be the only thing that was able to outshine the costume jewelry in the room – you weren’t physically capable of looking anywhere else.
Neither was he, for that matter, both of you openly, willingly, gazing at each other for an indefinite amount of time.
“You’re not half bad at dancing,” Jungkook teased with a pinch to your hip, eliciting a bout of giggles from you rather than the usual irritated frown.
“I said I don’t dance, never said I couldn’t.”
“Good,” he winked, “because we’re gonna do this at our wedding.”
You would have landed another smack on him if your hands weren’t intwined, “Don’t joke about stuff like that.”
A quick twirl, then a tug of his fingers to draw you closer till the distance between your chests was thin enough to fit a piece of paper, “I’m serious, snow.”
“Is that so?”
“As serious as me saying you should send in an application for a producer.”
The room was the one spinning now as you broke eye contact, “Oh.”
He halted in his administrations, jabbing a thumb over to the outdoor balcony. “Do you want to talk outside?”
Leaving the ballroom brought back some semblance of normalcy. Jungkook guided you with a hand pressed to your back to a marble bench wrapped in fairy lights, reminiscent of your own at home, though more romantic since you weren’t alone. He made sure you were looking at him, serious in his tone but gentle in his gaze.
“You know something?” His hands were placed on his lap, inches away where yours lay on the seat. “I always meant it when I said you were talented in music. You’re passionate about it too, more than the job I offered you.”
“I’m a photographer because I love the art of taking pictures, but you,” only then did he intwine your hands, “you love music. And I don’t think what you’re doing now is as fulfilling as it can be. You definitely weren’t planning on being my assistant forever, and quite frankly, I don’t want you to.”
“Then…” you bit your lip, “why did you hire me in the first place?”
His smile had never been more beautiful under the light of the moon, “Because I’m in love with you, snow. I always have been. I’m surprised you haven’t caught on by now, but I guess it’s my fault for taking so long to admit it,” he sighed, genuinely apologetic. “That, and using the whole assistant job thing as an excuse to spend time with you.”
Your heart was about to burst, fingers tightening in his grip to remind you that he was real, and so was all of this.
“Promise me, when we go back home, you’ll write in to them?”
A pinky was held up to you with his free hand, and you held up your own, though you didn’t link it through his yet.
“As long as you promise me something in return.”
“Sure.”
“If I get the job–“
“When you get the job.”
You laughed, “When I get it, will you take me on a date?”
“Of course,” Jungkook wrapped his finger with yours, “but honestly, I already consider all the time we spent together as unofficial dates.”
“That’s just it,” your shoulders slumped, leaning your head on his arm, “I’m not sure if we’ll spend so much time together if I become a producer.”
Lips pressing to the crown of your head had you looking up at him again, “We can still, snow. When we both work from home, or when you have free time, you can come with me to shoots. It’ll be like nothing has changed.”
“I’ll cook for you. You won’t eat anything otherwise.”
“Good,” he leaned his forehead against yours, noses brushing, “I love your food. It’s way better than the steak portions they’re giving out in there.”
Another peal of laughter bubbled past your lips, “Jungkook.”
“Seriously, have you seen them?”
***
You had expected Jungkook to pull you in for a passionate kiss once you stepped through the doorway of your home, but you hadn’t expected to see an album that you recognised on the dining table, gleaming within its plastic cover and waiting to be unwrapped.
“How was your day?” He spoke between sponging more sweet affections down your jawline, “Did you get the new flowers I sent you? I specifically asked the delivery guy to bring it up to your studio–“
Your lips on his cut him off for you to giggle, “Yes I did, Kookie. They’re lovely, now–“ an index finger was shoved in the direction of the table, “–what is that?”
Laughter filled the air around you, leading you by your entwined hands over to it, “Oh, I think you know.”
The protective plastic covering was ripped away by muscular arms in three seconds, tossed aside on the wooden surface before he was unveiling the CD you knew Namjoon poured his heart into, removing the little book inside with eager fingers turning to a specific page.
“How can you expect me not to buy an album that my girlfriend-“ a step to close the distance and peck your forehead, “-has producing credits on?”
“Aw, I’m sure Namjoon would appreciate you supporting him.”
“Snow–”
You slung your arms around him in half the time it took to tear the album open, “Just kidding, babe. Thank you.”
In the months that had gone by since you were hired by the panel of interviewers for the job, you had gone beyond making music for comic strips or small production videos (though Jungkook would disagree in the making of the small collage for your hundred-day anniversary), and you had never been happier. There was a plus side for the both of you; the money he had previously been wiring to your account was now used to treating you both to dates, or cooking him homemade meals that he insisted were better than the food at the gala that had brought you together officially.
“Kookie,” you rested your chin on his chest to stare up into his chocolate doe eyes, “do you like his music?”
“Of course I do, but,” he kissed the pout of your bottom lip, “I love you more.”
Your smile shone as bright as the stars glittering in his eyes, “I love you too, you dork.”

The scenery outside is just as beautiful as you remember. Just as mesmerizing as it was when you first admired it two years ago. The bright spring sun is reflected in the calm water, surrounded by greenery and pretty blooming flowers of all kinds of colors. The same small canoe docked at the side of the pier making the sight look straight out of painting. It’s wonderful.

“Think it worked?” he asks, still a little breathless.
“I don’t know,” you smile, meeting his gaze, “maybe.”
He pulls you closer into his side, embracing you in a warm hug. “I think so. How hard can it be?”
How hard can it be?
You simply close your eyes as you rest your head comfortably on his bare chest, drifting off into sleep. Silently praying for what your heart longs for the most.

Jeongguk feels like he’s been scrolling forever, and at this point, it’s surely animal abuse to force the poor mouse to click on yet another profile. Quick fingers do it anyway.
“Susie, 48. Likes pretty boys in skirts—okay, no,” he mumbles to himself as he goes back to scrolling through the list.

With blood-soaked hands, Jeongguk lets his gun clatter to the ground, the sound of metal against concrete barely audible with how hard his heart is beating in his chest. It thumps and pounds, thundering its demands to be released from its shackles of misery. But this chain—death—is inevitable, unfixable. A permanent carving upon his heart that has left a hollowness in its place.
Rain pours from the sky, blurring the bright city lights behind them that shine none of their guidance into the dark alley they are hidden in. Three men, two guns, one survivor. The risk comes with his line of work and, though he grows numb over the years towards the number of lives lost, plans spoiled, he supposes death is inescapable even to those he once believed as invincible.
“Guk,” the man, his partner, his other half, winces as he struggles to sit up against the wall. His shirt is soaked to the threads with rainwater mixed in with the blood that sinks into the fabric and taints his skin with a murky crimson. “Will you promise me something?”
Promises, promises. There are no guarantees. Nothing can ever be said for sure. He’s learned that the hard way. But Jeongguk does anyway.

Jungkook was not doing well, he got up in the middle of the night to check up on your three year old son, Junghoon to see any signs of discomfort in his sleep so that he can delay his first day of pre-school.
“Jungkook, come back to bed.” You croak when you see him wake up for the third time that night.
“I wanna check up on Hoonie, what if he needs something” he says rubbing his right eye, voice tired, it had to be, it was two in the morning.
“He`s not a baby anymore Jungkook, He`s three and usually sleeps through the night, we have the monitor don’t worry too much, I know what this is about so come on, back to bed.” You hold the blanket up and wait for him watching him pout and mope around for a hot minute, looking a lot like Junghoon right now.
“My arm is getting tired baby, come on be good.” You shake the blanket a little to coax him in much like you do with your three year old.
Jungkook was in denial since last week when you told him that Junghoon needs to start pre-school now, he told you to look at your son.
“Y/N, look how tiny he is, he cannot go to school right now, no!” he shakes his head, arms crossed on his chest.
“Jungkook, you`re not sending your son off to college, its just pre-school, everyone is gonna be just as tiny as him.” You giggle, rolling your eyes at your husband`s over protective ass.
“My little man, already…off to school” Jungkook hiccups a genuine cry in the back of his throat while picking up Hoonie from his playing mat.

♠ author’s note: A spin off to Granite Glow.
When you first met Jungkook, you didn’t think he was going to take this much space in your heart.
That time when you were in the cave, you only had one thought. If you couldn’t see those galaxy eyes again, you’d be damned forever. As you sunk deeper in the depth of darkness, accompanied by the remnants of the memories you had with Jungkook, you felt serenity and despair all at once. They played like montages in the back of your mind, pulling you in and then out of nowhere, you heard him. Heard him calling your name. With it, you gained a newfound strength that allowed you to carry the weight of the yellow line and into the next mound where you could find surface. When you did, you took a lungful of air, and the sounds echoed through the granite walls of the cave.

Ah, yes. The smell of your fucking Gucci perfume. Jungkook fucking hates it.
It’s not like he’s in any position to complain though, and he acknowledges that. “Yes, please give me the best seller,” he remembers telling the woman at the booth. One whiff and he wants to pass out. Perfect. Humans like these smells.

I’ll love you until you love yourself - Jungkook Drabble
Why am I so full of angst? Ex lovers au
It’s 12.45 am when the loud banging on the front door wakes you from your sleep. The blinking light of the digital clock letting you know exactly how late it is. You’re trying to make sense of the words being spoken at the door but it takes your brain a second to catch up, and you can barely keep your eyes open when you switch on the hallway lights. Should you have a weapon? You feel like you should have a weapon.
“Noona! Open up!” Yugeom? What the hell was Yugeom, your ex boyfriends best friend doing outside of your house at this hour? Trying to piss your neighbours off?
You snatch the handle on the door and open it with a pull.
“What the hell are you doing here?” You’re seething because of distrupted sleep, you liked Yugeom, no real hard feelings for the guy, but you’d kill him in the next two seconds if he didn’t have a really good explanation.
“It’s Jungkook,” he breathes heavily, you want to slam the door in his face at the name, but when you take in his busted lip and black eye, your heart sinks into the ground.
“What about Jungkook?” The name feels foreign coming from your mouth after so long, all your friends know it’s not a word to ever utter in your presence. They all tried to get it out of you, why it ended when it was working so well, all confused when they could see how much Jungkook loved you.
“He was absolutely devoted to you Y/n, why did he leave?” They were shocked by it, they thought you found the perfect guy, but you kept silent against their onslaught of questions. You did find the perfect guy, you were the one to end it.
Yugeom grabs your attention from going too far back into the past, “Noona he...”
He hesitates, not knowing if he’s doing the right thing for you both, Jungkook never told him how it ended, he just drank his sorrows away.
“He got in with the wrong crowd Noona, after you both broke up he just went into a spiral. We thought it was a phase so we just kept an eye on him but it’s really bad, and he’s not coming out of it.”
You suck in air between gritted teeth, feeling like hell had just opened it’s portal beneath you, waiting for it to drag you to the fire.
“Yugi, where is he?”
——————————————————————————
There’s no trace of sleep in you as you clutch the steering wheel at 100mph down the road, you’re eeriely calm and silent, Yugeom thinks, despite the haste at which you’re driving, the only trace of emotion he can see is how your jaw is clenched. Normally welcoming silence he finds this moment with you too unnerving not to fill, and against his better judgement he spills everything Jungkook’s been up to since you broke his heart.
The drugs, the smoking, the drinking; with each new revelation he could see your grip tighten impossibly on the steering wheel and your veins look like they were ready to pop. The car swerved when he mentioned the girls, and he decides then to fasten his seatbelt. He wants to ask what happened between you both, what you did to make his best friend lose it like this, but he holds his tongue, he knows from the look Jungkook gives him when he tries to ask that it’s best to never mention.
You don’t even try to park in the lines as the car comes to an abrupt stop at the pub Jungkook’s in. Yugeom scrambles in his seat to get out, he didn’t miss the way the car nearly went into the wall and he valued his life a little more than maybe you did.
You don’t feel like icy air hit your legs in the pyjama shorts you’re wearing, the adrenaline heating you up and making you jitter. You force yourself into the building and every description Yugeom detailed in the car couldn’t prepare you for the sight of your ex boyfriend beating a man to the ground, while his new friends cheered.
He doesn’t hear you walk up to them, too busy causing new bruises into the man’s face, what he did to deserve it you didn’t know or care, but you wanted him to stop.
“What the hell do you think you’re doing?” It comes out more coldly than you expect, but it stops him in his tracks, fist caught midair. He’s shocked, that’s an understatement, but he doesn’t care you’re there. He doesn’t care he feels something other than despair at the sound of your voice, that his heart is beating out of his chest faster than it had beating the shit out of the man under him.
It’s too silent for a second before you hear him scoff, how dare you come back. How dare you force him out of your life only to arbitrarily walk back in when you wanted. He doesn’t even look at you when he brushes himself off and walks to the bar. He leans against it as he sets the cigarette alight and takes in a deep corrupted breath. You’re there after a puff, taking it out of his mouth and putting it out on the bar, not giving a shit about the dirty look the bartender is giving you.
“You hate smoking.” It’s just a statement, but he does, he detests the habit so why your Jungkook held it in his mouth like a second set of lips baffles you. He still doesn’t look at you, jaw set on edge at how pissed he is at you.
“Why do you care?” It’s a loaded question, said with hate but you can hear the vulnerability behind it, a glimpse of your Jungkook behind whatever he was trying to pull. You take his form in now, some obnoxious animal print shirt with half the buttons undone tucked into red tight pants, a matching loose red jacket on top with the sleeves pulled up to show his angry veins.
Why did you care? Why did you drive like a maniac for a man you pretended didn’t exist anymore? Why did your heart break when you heard everything he’d done, why was your first thought not disgust when you did but worry?
His right arm is covered in tattoos, you want to reach out and touch them, admire them, he always talked about getting some but could never decide what he wanted. Your gaze moves up to his face that still refuses to acknowledge you, even though it’s full of hate he’s still the soft boy you fell in love with, his hair is a lot longer now, you don’t think he’s cut it as often since he left. Correction: since you told him to leave.
The thought has Jungkook burning with fire, one his friends saw through his eyes when they asked why he left. He wanted to yell it at them each time they asked, you left first, maybe not physically but emotionally you left first, you ended it not him, you were the one to break his heart over your own stupid insecurities.
He wants to laugh, you ended a three year relationship and four year friendship over something so stupid, and he hated you for it. He hates you, he’d repeat it in his head until it rang true, he hates you.
One of his new friends wolf whistles at you and he finally takes in the very thin material of your pjs before throwing this ‘friend’ a warning glare. You ignored it anyway, the man in front of you was the only thing that mattered.
“Jungkoo-”
“Get out,” he’s quick to cut you off, and you feel the blade he uses to do it. Fine, you deserved that. “Go home.”
He’s finally looking at you, and you wished he weren’t. You never wanted to see him look at you like that, and it killed you where you stood.
He thinks it’s a trick of light, the new moisture in your eyes, but it forces him to look away before he can drink your features in. You still looked the same, but you looked at him with a mixture of disappointment and sadness he couldn’t stomach. You had no right to look at him like that, his fists clenched on the bar top.
Yugeom finally joins you both from whatever corner of the pub he was hiding, he could see it wasn’t going well and really didn’t want to butt in but the battle of Jungkook’s fire and your ice was not fun to watch. He visibly cringed when Jungkook gave him a look that made him feel his betrayal, but he didn’t give him much of a choice. Jungkook took in his friends black eye... maybe he felt a little twinge of guilt.
“Take her home Yugeom,” he said with a bite.
“He doesn’t tell me what to do,” you respond before he can. “Yugi wait outside.”
But apparently you tell him what to do? He’s about to speak for himself but realises while Jungkook might be physically capable of killing him, he somehow finds you ten times scarier and decides to heed your words. He knows in his heart anyway, while Jungkook might look like he wants to throw you into a ditch and leave you for dead, he’d kill anyone that dared to touch you.
As he leaves he misses the way the trash Jungkook is now friends with walk up to you both.
“Wow Jungkook, are the hoes you slept with now stalking you?” One laughs as his words throw cold water on your face. “Cute jimjams babe but JK doesn’t double dip if you know what I mean.”
Did this asshole seriously have the audacity to wink at you?
“I would gladly dip in though,” his hands grab your wrist and you physically might be sick before you punch him but it’s Jungkook that tears his claws away from you. You’ve not seen this look on his face before as he bends his associates wrist back and out of place. You startle at the cry from the asshole as he falls to his knees.
“Don’t touch her,” it’s more of a promise than a warning, but his voice puts shivers down your back. You place your hand softly on his wrist to stop him, you always thought your Kookie couldn’t hurt a fly, but you soon realise this was not your Kookie anymore. His seething look didn’t change as he addressed you, he takes his other hand pulling your wrist off him with force and dragging you out of the smoke filled establishment.
“Get in the car and go home,” his pace doesn’t falter, his fingers biting into your skin so hard it hurts, but you don’t mind, you deserve it. You feel the cold this time when he leads you outside, shivering more from nerves but you won’t tell him that. He’s about to walk back in and leave you but you grab a fistful of his shirt and hold him in place.
“We need to talk,” you don’t even know what you want to say, but he can’t carry on like this. This mess he’s become was not your intention when you broke up with him, none of this was meant to happen. He was meant to realise how much better off he was without you, find a girl worthy of his time and affection, move on and forget all about you, the way you knew you could never do.
“What do you want to talk about Y/n?” Hes mocking you, it didn’t take a genius to figure it out. “Should we talk about how you don’t have a say in my life anymore or how you broke up with me and have no right to be here!”
If he slapped you it might’ve hurt less. His breath stops in his throat when he realises you’re crying, and you see a glimpse of your Kookie coming back. His feautures soften as he takes in your tears, he wipes it away without thinking, muscle memory from the past.
You take his face into your palms and makes sure he’s looking at you, really looking at you as you confess the thoughts you’ve had since the day you your relationship started.
“Kookie I am so sorry,” you say it with purpose, you don’t know for what other than to make sure he’s heard you. “I am so sorry that my perfect Kookie had the misfortune to fall in love with an awful human being like me.”
His heart breaks a little, he wanted you to apologise for breaking up with him, he wanted you to say you made a mistake and ask for him to come home, but you were still wrapped up in the self hate that destroyed your relationship. He has to look away from you, jaw ticking as he tries to stop himself from crying in front of you. He still loved you, you still loved him, but he wasn’t doing this again, he wasn’t going to beg you to love yourself the way he loved you.
He doesn’t know who made you insecure like this, who made the voice in your head sour when it came to yourself, but he didn’t hear the whispers that surrounded you both when you got together. He didn’t hear how many people wondered why the perfect man chose you over anyone else.
“I’m not going to argue with you about this Y/n,” when did he stop calling you Noona, you hated your name when it came out of his mouth with spite and pity. You didnt want him to pity you.
“I loved you so much, and you pushed me away because you couldn’t love yourself,” he was getting angry again, and despite saying he didn’t want to reignite this age old battle, he couldn’t help it. “You let your insecurities and self hate ruin everything we built, we were made for each other and you threw me out like I was nothing!”
You wanted to disagree with him, he was everything to you, that’s why you had to let him go. He couldn’t see the way you were holding him back.
“You can’t see it yet, but it’s better this way,” you feel bile in your throat as you say it.
He wants to rip his own hair out and scream at you.
“Really Y/n?” He scoffs, looking around him at the life he had without you. “Is it really better this way? Is this what you wanted for me?”
“No!” Youre quick to reply. “It wasn’t meant to be like this, you’re so good Kookie, you’re nothing like this.” Your hand finds his cheek again, caressing him as if it would make him believe you, see it the way you do.
“You have such a big heart, such a pure smile,” you don’t mention his laugh, how it made you happy to hear it ringing through the house, how you pretended to hate how he teased you just to hear him laugh. You don’t tell him how empty the house was without it. “You don’t see it yet Kookie, but you would have in five years, ten years, how much of a mistake you made choosing me, and by that point how muchof your life would you have wasted?”
He’s getting a headache, he can feel his temple pulse at how angry you’re making him with your words.
“It’s my life, I wanted to spend it with you,” he mutters, eyes closed. Why did he want to press his face in your hands? You were the one causing him this headache, but he wanted you to soothe it away, soothe the the ache caused by last 10 months spent away from you. “But you didn’t want that, and I left, now respect my desicion and leave me alone.”
“What the hell are you doing Jungkook? You don’t smoke, you don’t do drugs, or sleep arou-”
“You did this when you broke up with me!” He seethes, removing your hand from his face, the daggers in his glare back with full force.
You didn’t want to hear that, you didn’t want this.
“You said I was too good for you,” he’s back to mocking you again. “So consider this me coming down to your level.”
He didn’t mean it, he was just a mess, all he wanted to do was crawl into your arms and ask you to hold him until the pain went away, but he couldn’t so he lashed out at you instead.
“Am I lowly enough for you now Y/n? Do you finally feel like you’re better than me so we can continue this relationship?”
He doesn’t stop when he sees you crying, he knows his words are like a stab in your heart, but the bandages around his own are seeping with blood at the wounds you reopened, the ones that couldn’t heal anyway.
“I still love you so much,” he confesses. “Even though you tore out my fucking heart, I love you so much.”
“I know,” you whimper, he didn’t expect that. “I know, and it scared the shit out of me.”
His eyes go round at your confession, you had trouble being vulnerable with him throughout your relationship but you needed this out of your chest before it poisoned you any further, you needed him to understand how selfish you really were.
“You loved me so much it terrified me, I didn’t want you to wake up one day realising how much of a mistake you made being with me because it would completely break my heart so I decided to break yours first!” Youre yelling at him like this is all his fault, and he lets you. “I was protecting myself.”
It’s his turn to take your face into his palms, he swallows the sob he feels in his throat as he forces you to look up at him.
“Do you really hate yourself that much Noona?” He can’t stop his bottom lip from quivering as he watches you cry in his hands. “You hate yourself so much you didn’t give yourself a chance to be happy, you didn’t give me a chance to make you happy.”
“You did make me happy,” you correct him with a sob, as much as you wanted this to be over you didn’t want him to blame himself, not for a second. “It scared me so much.”
It would take a second to take it all away from you so you decided to take it away from yourself, Jungkook wouldn’t understand how self destructive you were, how much of a mess lied inside of you, although you were selfish you still loved him enough to not let your darkness wrap around his light.
He just wished you believed his light was enough for you both. He squishes your cheeks a little, kissing the lips that puckered in his touch. He couldn’t help it, he just wanted to kiss it all away, but he knew he couldn’t. You don’t open your eyes at his kiss, you let yourself feel it before taking it away from yourself again. He pulls back to let his forehead rest against your own.
“Take me back,” his voice is firm, he wasn’t going to let you do this to yourself anymore. “Let’s go home.”
Let’s undo the last ten months, he wanted to plead but left it unsaid. You shake your head, ever stubborn against him. He lets out a tsk, and decides to peck your lips again.
“Noona, you didn’t give me a choice in leaving, I’m not giving you a choice in taking me back.”
“Koo-” you start with a sob but he cuts you off with another kiss. He can see all the scars you caused yourself in your eyes when you open them, so he peppers kisses all over your face, trying to soothe them.
You want to ask him why he wants you back after all the pain you caused him, you want to ask him why he loves a broken soul, why after everything you’ve done he kisses you so softly but you can’t find your voice. You can’t stop the cries caught in your throat, sounding like a wounded puppy with every attempt of breath. His arms wrap around you, pulling you into his chest as you break down.
You thought you came to rescue him, but it seemed like he was saving you from drowning in yourself.

➪ One Shots/Drabbles
➪ Series/Two Shots
Jeon Jungkook was the handsome RA that you could never quite bring yourself to talk to, and you were the ice princess whose status kept you far out of his reach… But a selfless act of kindness in the midst of a terrible storm forges an unexpected bond between you - one that could break your guarded heart… or finally set it free.
Pairing: Jeon Jungkook x Reader
Genre: Fluff • Smut • Hint of Angst • Secret Feelings/Strangers to Lovers
Rating: Explicit (18+)
Word Count: 6200
Warnings: mentions of emotional neglect • reader has a phobia of storms • very unsafe sex (shield it when you yield it y’all) • hints of classism
Author’s Note: I will be blunt… This fic was actually very challenging to write. I did not expect it to take so long or so much. There are a couple of people without whom I would simply not have been able to finish it. My wonderful “Fick Riders” Ana, Lindy, and Donna a.k.a. @xjoonchildx @ppersonna and @taetaewonderland • The Lovely Lemon @lemonjoonah whose friendship never fails to shock and uplift me • Feedback Queen Rumu @kigurumu • and the beautiful angels in the BTS Smut Hub who offered me relentless positivity when I needed it most..
This fic is a little different from my typical style, and I am really happy I was able to finish it. I meant it as a gift to my followers for hitting my milestone and I actually hit another milestone in the time it took me to complete this! I just discovered this didn’t tag and my heart is just a little bit broken… Why?
You’re afraid of storms.
Born to privilege (at least so you’ve been told), but money could not buy the love of absent parents, nor could it purchase any sort of freedom from the kind of fear that gripped you now.
You shouldn’t even be here…
Alone in a dorm while everyone around you caught planes and trains and buses back to their diverse points of origin.
The bed across from yours was usually occupied by your roommate and best friend since high school. She was a scholarship case at the elite private prep where the wealthy dynasties of Southern California sent their entitled spawn.
A lone pair of Chuck Taylors in a sea of Jimmy Choos.
And a breath of fresh air.
Her father worked in stores; your father owned them, yet, despite the chasm between your social circles, you had become sisters, bonded by something far stronger than blood.
When the storms came, she climbed into your bed and held you till the thunder passed.
Unfortunately she and the comfort of her familiar embrace were 30,000 feet above you now; well on the way to celebrate the spring holidays with her chaotic tribe.
You could have escaped for the week (like the majority of your peers), but your father was on vacation with his new wife (who graduated from high school a mere four years before you did) and the dorms were infinitely more inviting than the sterile halls of your family’s real estate holdings.
So here you were.
Alone in a storm.
Or so you thought…
Being an RA looked good on resumes and paid better than most work study jobs, but for Jeon Jungkook, the obligation to stay in the dorms over spring break (when he could be chasing music festivals along the California coast) was a definite downside.
He heard sobs on his way up from the laundry and dropped the basket of clean clothes on the stairs.
Only one person signed up to stay over the holidays; the only person who managed to spark shivers down his spine without effort or awareness.
The princess.
That’s what they called you when they thought you weren’t listening. It was an unoriginal label laced with jealousy and petty bitterness.
But it fit you, nonetheless.
Elegant even when you were clumsy. Distant even in a crowd. Reserved in ways that spoke of intensive social training and endless expectations.
And you were screaming.
His hand wrapped around your doorknob in a matter of seconds, but you could not hear him calling out to you over the thunder and the ringing in your ears.
You did not hear the lock splinter when he slammed his body against the frame like his father taught him to do in case of a fire or an emergency.
Jungkook saw you often in and out of the dorms, yet you never really spoke to him, never offered him more than the occasional pleasantry or disinterested smile.
He was out of your orbit and you were out of his league.

Synopsis: Everyone warned you he was a heartbreaker, hell, he even warned you himself. But if warnings really worked, then there would be no consequences.
Genre: It’s just angst sorry guys >:cc
Pairing: fuckboy!jungkook X reader
Word count: 1K
Warnings: Theres like allusion to sex but it’s superrrr vague.
Note: This is going to be part of a set of drabbles from the poet Lang Leav, she’s amazing you should check out her book Love and Misadventure it’s great omg. Anyway, enjoy!! If this does well I might turn it into a story idk yet hehehe.
“You come and go so easily, Your life is as you knew- While mine is split in two. How I envy so the half of me, Who lived before love’s due, Who was yet to know of you.” - Lang Leav
Everyone warned you, they had been vivid with their descriptions of how he broke hearts, how he charmed people into his bed and never let them into his heart. You were foolish, easily swayed because all you had experienced from life was the good, the pure, the innocent. He was from a different side of the world you thought you knew, like yin and yang, good and evil, you had been polar opposites - at least seemingly so. You had that same assumption, the assumption that you could change him if only you had the chance to show him love. You were one of many and in reality, there was nothing special about you. Nothing that could really sway his cemented way of life, his promise to never love for as long as he lived.

you’ve spent years sailing the Mediterranean hoping to come across the ethereal creature that saved you from a shipwreck as a child, but being forced to accept your suitor’s marriage proposal makes you abandon all hope. it is when you’re headed to your new home that you meet Jungkook again.

1727, the Mediterranean
You stepped on a ship for the first time at the age of ten, the occasion being a visit to some distant relatives. It was to be a short trip, just a few days spent on open sea, but nevertheless you were thrilled.
To be drifted by the gentle waves and a nice breeze towards your destination instead of driven through the bumpiest roads while sat inside an uncomfortable carriage felt like a reward, even if you hadn’t done anything to earn it—you had subjected your parents to endless pleas about changing the travel route for months, but that likely didn’t have anything to do with it…

He scratches the back of his neck, showing signs of obvious reluctance. He sighs once before beginning again. “It feels like I’m sleeping. I get..blackouts and I become unconscious.” He swallows, eyes flickering up to yours as if you’ll think he’s absolutely insane. “I have no idea what they’re up to, what they’ve done or where they’ve been.”
