♱ preppy bf juhoon & alt gf reader who lived in a small town where the sun shined about five times a year, rain was basically a season and everyone knew everyone.

♱ preppy juhoon who was pretty known around the small town he lived in, his parents were wealthy and had an extreme amount of involvement in the community, he was on the soccer team and had decent grades, just enough to keep people happy.

♱ preppy juhoon who didn’t who you were until one day he walked into class late and the only seat available was beside a girl dressed in all black with her phone stuffed in her face with her wired headphones in.

─── juhoon gently lowered himself into the empty seat beside you, his backpack slipping from one shoulder as he set it on the floor. he let out a quiet sigh, still slightly out of breath from rushing to class.

you didn't acknowledge him. instead, you simply turned your phone face down on your desk, the music from your wired headphones cutting off as you looked toward the front of the room.

for a second, juhoon found himself staring, he wasn't sure why, maybe because he'd never noticed you before.

his eyes drifted from the small silver stud resting high on your cheek to the collection of worn studded bracelets wrapped around your wrists. your nails were painted a dark purple, chipped slightly at the edges.

he couldn't stop himself, "did it hurt?" your head immediately turned toward him, surprise flashing across your face? the sudden attention made his heart speed up for reasons he couldn't explain.

"what?" you asked, your eyebrows pulling together, you looked genuinely confused that he was talking to you.

your voice was surprisingly soft and he wasn't sure why that surprised him, juhoon awkwardly pointed toward your cheek.

"my dermal?" you blinked before glancing at where he was pointing. "uh not really, other piercings that I have were more painful but that's just me."

"oh." his eyes stayed on you a little longer than they probably should have.

you looked down at your hands, absentmindedly fiddling with one of your bracelets beneath his gaze.

it made him wonder if he was making you uncomfortable or maybe you were just confused and to be fair, you weren’t really in the same circles, he didn't even know your name.

"cool," he whispered, brushing a hand through his hair. "think I can pull it off?"

you let out a small laugh, just a small amused sound but somehow it made warmth spread through his chest.

you glanced at him briefly before looking away again,"maybe stay away from your face, start with your ears."

juhoon couldn't help smiling, "yeah?"

you shrugged one shoulder, "less commitment."

he nodded seriously as if you were giving him life changing advice. "I’ve never seen you around before," he said. "I’m juhoon."

your eyebrows furrowed slightly, you looked at him for a moment like you were trying to figure something out, like you were waiting for the catch, trying to understand why someone like him was suddenly talking to you.

"I know who you are," you said after a second. "I’m yn."

"nice to meet you yn.” you gave a small nod before turning your attention back toward the front of the classroom.

but juhoon found himself smiling at his desk for the rest of the lesson.

and every now and then, despite trying not to, he caught himself glancing your way again.

♱ preppy juhoon who watched you get called over to the teachers desk while everyone walked out, he noticed the annoyed expression on your face like it was a regular occurrence.

♱ preppy juhoon who sat with his friends at lunch, he ended up tuning out keonho’s rant about something that happened at his swim team practice when he noticed a certain girl walk into the cafeteria.

─── you stood in between a guy and a girl who both had a similar vibe to you, darker clothes, piercings, studs the guy had green hair and the girl had purple highlights, he scrunched up his face as the guy slung an arm around your shoulder as the three of you made your way towards the back of the cafeteria, was that your boyfriend?

♱ preppy juhoon who ignored martin’s questioning of “dude, who are you looking at?” forcefully taking his eyes off of you.

♱ preppy juhoon who was completely unfocused at soccer practice, he didn’t understand why his mind kept straying back to you, you guys had one conversation but it seemed like that was enough to have him hooked and also who the hell is that guy that had his arm around your shoulder?

♱ preppy juhoon who had gotten home late, his parents weren’t home and his hair was wet from the usual rain which was his usual school day evenings.

♱ preppy juhoon who couldn’t help but feel more curious about you and found himself opening instagram and going through trial and error of who he knew who could possibly know you but couldn’t think of any. unfortunately that meant he had to call the only person who could find anyone on social media.

the phone barely rang twice before his best friend answered "what?" martin asked immediately.

"I need a favour," juhoon said, rubbing a hand over his face as he leaned back against his headboard.

♱ preppy juhoon who thanked martin for finding your instagram and hung up on him after he started asking too many questions.

♱ preppy juhoon who looked at your account and realized that you were private and only had about 30 followers, but he still took the risk of following you.

♱ preppy juhoon who woke up to you accepting his follow request and following him back.

♱ preppy juhoon who stalked all your reposts to see all of your interests and finding some type of way of incorporating it into him asking you out.

♱ preppy juhoon who waited about a week before he made his move.

───“hey,” juhoon slid up beside you, one hand tucked into the pocket of his hoodie as he stopped beside the bookshelf you were browsing through. his eyes followed your movements as you ran your fingers along the spines of different books, pulling one out every now and then only to put it back a moment later. “didn't see you in math today.”

“hey,” you replied, finally looking up from the shelf. the first thing juhoon noticed wasn't even your expression but the new slit through your eyebrow. “yeah, I woke up late. it honestly didn't make much sense to come.” you glanced back down at the book in your hands before looking at him again. “did I miss anything?”

“not really,” juhoon said with a shrug, leaning his shoulder against the shelf beside you. while you slid the book back into place, his eyes drifted toward your hands and immediately caught on another change. there was a small piece of jewelry sitting just beneath your knuckle that definitely hadn't been there before. “new piercing?”

“yup.” your face brightened instantly as you lifted your hand toward him so he could get a better look. “cool right?” you rotated your hand slightly so the light caught the jewelry before laughing. “hurt like a bitch though.”

juhoon couldn't help smiling as he looked at it.

“it is cool,” he admitted, his gaze lingering on your hand for a second longer before he looked away with a quiet sigh. “speaking of piercings...”

“yeah?” you asked, raising an eyebrow as you lowered your hand.

“I wanna get my ears pierced.”

the smile that spread across your face was immediate.

“oh really?” you asked, tilting your head slightly. “so you're taking up my suggestion.”

“yup,” juhoon nodded, unable to stop himself from smiling back. “and I was wondering if you'd like to come with me...” his voice trailed off as he watched your face carefully for any reaction.

when you simply waited for him to continue, he nervously rubbed the back of his neck. “you know, this town is small enough for there to probably only be one piercing place and that means you're definitely familiar with it so...”

“that would be cool,” you replied with a small nod, and juhoon immediately felt relief wash over him. “just let me know.”

“yeah, we can make a day out of it,” he said quickly, the words tumbling out before he could properly think about them. “like a, like a...”

“like a...” you repeated, clearly waiting for him to finish.

juhoon let out a long sigh as he looked down at the floor between you.

“like a date?”

he couldn't even bring himself to look up after saying it.

“a date?” your voice was soft enough that it made him lift his head despite himself. when he finally looked at you, your expression was even softer, surprise flickering across your face before a smile slowly appeared.

“wow,” you said with a quiet laugh. “um yeah, of course a date. I’d like that juhoon.”

“what?” his head snapped up fully now, disbelief written all over his face. “like seriously?”

you laughed, shaking your head as though you couldn't believe he was asking.

“yeah seriously.”

♱ preppy juhoon who picked you up at your house and could barely take his eyes off of you the whole drive.

♱ preppy juhoon who couldn’t stop his cheesy smile as you yelled at him to pay attention to your directions.

♱ preppy juhoon who felt like he was on fire when you grabbed his hand and dragged him into the joint piercing and tattoo shop.

♱ preppy juhoon who furrowed his eyebrows at your green haired friend who coincidentally worked at the front desk. (yeah he was still a little jealous)

♱ preppy juhoon who ignored the teasing of your friend who asked why he wasn’t at the gap store at the mall outside of town only smiling when you had roughly hit his shoulder.

“shut up and leave him alone.”

“defensive over your boyfriend already?”

♱ preppy juhoon who was surprised on how much it didn’t hurt, he was even holding your hand for safety measures.

♱ preppy juhoon who had barley listened to all the healing rules and things to upkeep, his focus was only on you who was admiring his piercing.

“you like it?” juhoon asked, looking down at you.

“I love it, it makes you look even prettier.”

♱ preppy juhoon who then followed you to the music store right across the street, he listened to you talk about your favourite artists and you did the same for him.

♱ preppy juhoon who then drove down to the local diner and shared a milkshake with you.

♱ preppy juhoon who drove you home but instead of you immediately going inside, the both of you talked for about an hour.

࿇… THE TALKING STAGE

❝won’t you die tonight for love?❞ - 𝓙oin me in death by 𝓗im

♱ preppy juhoon who brought you on more dates, some are out of town and others were places in town the both of you were already familiar with.

♱ preppy juhoon who met you at your locker every morning and walked you to where you usually met with your friends.

♱ preppy juhoon who liked to call you while he did his homework in the evenings.

♱ preppy juhoon who knew he was down bad when he hurt himself at soccer practice and you kissed his band aid and he practically lit on fire.

♱ preppy juhoon who knew it was time to ask you to be his girlfriend and luckily you had recently invited him over to your house for the first time.

♱ preppy juhoon who found himself at the front of your house ringing your doorbell with his heart in his stomach.

♱ preppy juhoon who’s face heated up when you greeted him, you were just so pretty.

♱ preppy juhoon followed you upstairs to your room where music was being played extremely loud.

♱ preppy juhoon who couldn’t help but think your room was extremely you, a bunch of posters of bands, tv shows, movies and celebrities, little trinkets all over, a cool lamp that looked like a dead flower, your bed looked old but not in a bad way more of a vintage way and it had black drapes hanging from the top, it was dark and your rug was in the shape of a skull with a bow on it.

“isn’t that from some kids show?”

“monster high, I’ve had it since I was five.”

♱ preppy juhoon who sat with you on the floor of your bedroom leaning against the velvet two seater couch that was leaned against the end of your bed.

─── the music you had playing was turned down now, faintly filling the room from the cd player sitting on the other side of your bedroom. it blended with the occasional hum of of cars driving down your street outside and the soft sound of you turning pages through a magazine you'd abandoned somewhere beside you.

juhoon's mind, meanwhile, was running a mile a minute, today was the day he could do this.

it was obvious the two of you liked each other. everyone else seemed to know it too. so why was this so terrifying?

“why are you sitting down there? come up.”

juhoon looked over immediately, finding you stretched out across your bed with your head resting against your pillows. your eyes stayed fixed on him as you patted the empty space beside you.

“come sit here with me.” you were genuinely going to be the death of him.

juhoon pushed himself up from where he'd been sitting on the floor and made his way over to the bed. the mattress dipped beneath his weight as he sat beside you, leaning back against the headboard and trying to ignore the way his heart sped up the second you smiled at him.

“you look tired,” you said softly, immediately tucking your head against his shoulder as though it was the most natural thing in the world. “you okay?”

juhoon let out a deep sigh and looked down at his lap.

“yeah, I’m good. just...” his voice trailed off as you reached over and picked up one of his hands. your fingers slipped between his as you examined the chipped black nail polish you'd painted on him weeks ago. “stuff on my mind, you know how it is. I just feel... I don't know.”

“yeah,” you murmured absentmindedly, juhoon flipped your hand over while you spoke, his thumb brushing over one of your rings as he traced the familiar lines of your palm.

“same. my skin is breaking out and my hair is dull and lifeless.” you sighed dramatically before glancing up at him. “have you ever watched jennifer's body?”

juhoon shook his head and you laughed softly. “that's probably not what you're feeling like anyways, like you could, that movie is for the girls.”

your fingers squeezed his hand gently before your expression softened. “do you wanna talk about it?”

your eyes lifted to his and gosh, that wasn't helping.

juhoon stared blankly at the posters covering your wall for a moment before finally sitting up straighter. the movement made you shift away from his shoulder, and he immediately missed the warmth.“yeah, uh.”

you pulled your legs underneath yourself and turned to face him properly, folding your hands neatly in your lap as you waited. “talk to me.”

juhoon looked at you, really looked at you and then immediately looked down again.

“I like you,” he blurted out, picking at your comforter with nervous fingers. “like a lot and it's been consuming me since the day I sat beside you in class.”

the words came out faster the longer he spoke.“and we have this official unofficial thing going on right now.”

he glanced up, you were staring at him so intently it almost made him forget what he was saying.“and that's cool and all, but I don't want that.” he shook his head. “I want to be official. I want to be real.”

“juhoo-”

he immediately rubbed both hands over his face.“and I know us getting together can be a lot. you'd have to deal with all my responsibilities but I just can't go on like this.” he laughed nervously, the sound strained. “I can't go on with you not being my girlfri-”

your lips pressed against his and everything stopped, juhoon’s brain completely short circuited.

for a second he genuinely forgot how to breathe, all the air seemed to leave his lungs at once as he stared at you, frozen in place while his heart practically tried to escape his chest.

slowly, carefully, he lifted a hand to your cheek his thumb brushed against your skin and then he kissed you back.

the second you pulled away he found himself unconsciously following after you, chasing your lips before he even realized what he was doing.

your laugh filled the room.“juhoon,” you said, smiling so brightly it made his chest ache. “I’d love to be your girlfriend. why wouldn't I?”

“uh...” he looked completely dazed. “uh I don't know.”

you laughed again and leaned forward to press a gentle kiss against his cheek. “you're so cute.”

juhoon could practically feel his soul leaving his body.

“was that what was bothering you?”

“maybe.” he shrugged weakly, still trying to recover.

you shook your head affectionately before leaning toward the foot of the bed to grab your laptop. “that's nothing to worry about, hoon.”

with your free hand you reached over and pulled him back down beside you until both of you were lying against the pillows again.

“let's watch nana.” you settled the laptop onto your legs before nudging his shoulder with yours. “I’ve been wanting to introduce you to it.”

juhoon looked at you for a moment, then at the laptop and then back at you.he'd walked into your room convinced he was about to have a heart attack.

now he had a girlfriend.

♱ preppy juhoon who found himself at the front of your house ringing your doorbell with his heart in his stomach.

♱ preppy juhoon who’s face heated up when you greeted him, you were just so pretty.

♱ preppy juhoon followed you upstairs to your room where music was being played extremely loud.

♱ preppy juhoon who couldn’t help but think your room was extremely you, a bunch of posters of bands, tv shows, movies and celebrities, little trinkets all over, a cool lamp that looked like a dead flower, your bed looked old but not in a bad way more of a vintage way and it had black drapes hanging from the top, it was dark and your rug was in the shape of a skull with a bow on it.

“isn’t that from some kids show?”

“monster high, I’ve had it since I was five.”

♱ preppy juhoon who sat with you on the floor of your bedroom leaning against the velvet two seater couch that was leaned against the end of your bed.

─── the music you had playing was turned down now, faintly filling the room from the cd player sitting on the other side of your bedroom. it blended with the occasional hum of of cars driving down your street outside and the soft sound of you turning pages through a magazine you'd abandoned somewhere beside you.

juhoon's mind, meanwhile, was running a mile a minute, today was the day he could do this.

it was obvious the two of you liked each other. everyone else seemed to know it too. so why was this so terrifying?

“why are you sitting down there? come up.”

juhoon looked over immediately, finding you stretched out across your bed with your head resting against your pillows. your eyes stayed fixed on him as you patted the empty space beside you.

“come sit here with me.” you were genuinely going to be the death of him.

juhoon pushed himself up from where he'd been sitting on the floor and made his way over to the bed. the mattress dipped beneath his weight as he sat beside you, leaning back against the headboard and trying to ignore the way his heart sped up the second you smiled at him.

“you look tired,” you said softly, immediately tucking your head against his shoulder as though it was the most natural thing in the world. “you okay?”

juhoon let out a deep sigh and looked down at his lap.

“yeah, I’m good. just...” his voice trailed off as you reached over and picked up one of his hands. your fingers slipped between his as you examined the chipped black nail polish you'd painted on him weeks ago. “stuff on my mind, you know how it is. I just feel... I don't know.”

“yeah,” you murmured absentmindedly, juhoon flipped your hand over while you spoke, his thumb brushing over one of your rings as he traced the familiar lines of your palm.

“same. my skin is breaking out and my hair is dull and lifeless.” you sighed dramatically before glancing up at him. “have you ever watched jennifer's body?”

juhoon shook his head and you laughed softly. “that's probably not what you're feeling like anyways, like you could, that movie is for the girls.”

your fingers squeezed his hand gently before your expression softened. “do you wanna talk about it?”

your eyes lifted to his and gosh, that wasn't helping.

juhoon stared blankly at the posters covering your wall for a moment before finally sitting up straighter. the movement made you shift away from his shoulder, and he immediately missed the warmth.“yeah, uh.”

you pulled your legs underneath yourself and turned to face him properly, folding your hands neatly in your lap as you waited. “talk to me.”

juhoon looked at you, really looked at you and then immediately looked down again.

“I like you,” he blurted out, picking at your comforter with nervous fingers. “like a lot and it's been consuming me since the day I sat beside you in class.”

the words came out faster the longer he spoke.“and we have this official unofficial thing going on right now.”

he glanced up, you were staring at him so intently it almost made him forget what he was saying.“and that's cool and all, but I don't want that.” he shook his head. “I want to be official. I want to be real.”

“juhoo-”

he immediately rubbed both hands over his face.“and I know us getting together can be a lot. you'd have to deal with all my responsibilities but I just can't go on like this.” he laughed nervously, the sound strained. “I can't go on with you not being my girlfri-”

your lips pressed against his and everything stopped, juhoon’s brain completely short circuited.

for a second he genuinely forgot how to breathe, all the air seemed to leave his lungs at once as he stared at you, frozen in place while his heart practically tried to escape his chest.

slowly, carefully, he lifted a hand to your cheek his thumb brushed against your skin and then he kissed you back.

the second you pulled away he found himself unconsciously following after you, chasing your lips before he even realized what he was doing.

your laugh filled the room.“juhoon,” you said, smiling so brightly it made his chest ache. “I’d love to be your girlfriend. why wouldn't I?”

“uh...” he looked completely dazed. “uh I don't know.”

you laughed again and leaned forward to press a gentle kiss against his cheek. “you're so cute.”

juhoon could practically feel his soul leaving his body.

“was that what was bothering you?”

“maybe.” he shrugged weakly, still trying to recover.

you shook your head affectionately before leaning toward the foot of the bed to grab your laptop. “that's nothing to worry about, hoon.”

with your free hand you reached over and pulled him back down beside you until both of you were lying against the pillows again.

“let's watch nana.” you settled the laptop onto your legs before nudging his shoulder with yours. “I’ve been wanting to introduce you to it.”

juhoon looked at you for a moment, then at the laptop and then back at you.he'd walked into your room convinced he was about to have a heart attack.

now he had a girlfriend.

♱ preppy bf juhoon & alt gf reader who lived in a small town where the sun shined about five times a year, rain was basically a season and everyone knew everyone.

♱ preppy juhoon who was pretty known around the small town he lived in, his parents were wealthy and had an extreme amount of involvement in the community, he was on the soccer team and had decent grades, just enough to keep people happy.

♱ preppy juhoon who didn’t who you were until one day he walked into class late and the only seat available was beside a girl dressed in all black with her phone stuffed in her face with her wired headphones in.

─── juhoon gently lowered himself into the empty seat beside you, his backpack slipping from one shoulder as he set it on the floor. he let out a quiet sigh, still slightly out of breath from rushing to class.

you didn't acknowledge him. instead, you simply turned your phone face down on your desk, the music from your wired headphones cutting off as you looked toward the front of the room.

for a second, juhoon found himself staring, he wasn't sure why, maybe because he'd never noticed you before.

his eyes drifted from the small silver stud resting high on your cheek to the collection of worn studded bracelets wrapped around your wrists. your nails were painted a dark purple, chipped slightly at the edges.

he couldn't stop himself, "did it hurt?" your head immediately turned toward him, surprise flashing across your face? the sudden attention made his heart speed up for reasons he couldn't explain.

"what?" you asked, your eyebrows pulling together, you looked genuinely confused that he was talking to you.

your voice was surprisingly soft and he wasn't sure why that surprised him, juhoon awkwardly pointed toward your cheek.

"my dermal?" you blinked before glancing at where he was pointing. "uh not really, other piercings that I have were more painful but that's just me."

"oh." his eyes stayed on you a little longer than they probably should have.

you looked down at your hands, absentmindedly fiddling with one of your bracelets beneath his gaze.

it made him wonder if he was making you uncomfortable or maybe you were just confused and to be fair, you weren’t really in the same circles, he didn't even know your name.

"cool," he whispered, brushing a hand through his hair. "think I can pull it off?"

you let out a small laugh, just a small amused sound but somehow it made warmth spread through his chest.

you glanced at him briefly before looking away again,"maybe stay away from your face, start with your ears."

juhoon couldn't help smiling, "yeah?"

you shrugged one shoulder, "less commitment."

he nodded seriously as if you were giving him life changing advice. "I’ve never seen you around before," he said. "I’m juhoon."

your eyebrows furrowed slightly, you looked at him for a moment like you were trying to figure something out, like you were waiting for the catch, trying to understand why someone like him was suddenly talking to you.

"I know who you are," you said after a second. "I’m yn."

"nice to meet you yn.” you gave a small nod before turning your attention back toward the front of the classroom.

but juhoon found himself smiling at his desk for the rest of the lesson.

and every now and then, despite trying not to, he caught himself glancing your way again.

♱ preppy juhoon who watched you get called over to the teachers desk while everyone walked out, he noticed the annoyed expression on your face like it was a regular occurrence.

♱ preppy juhoon who sat with his friends at lunch, he ended up tuning out keonho’s rant about something that happened at his swim team practice when he noticed a certain girl walk into the cafeteria.

─── you stood in between a guy and a girl who both had a similar vibe to you, darker clothes, piercings, studs the guy had green hair and the girl had purple highlights, he scrunched up his face as the guy slung an arm around your shoulder as the three of you made your way towards the back of the cafeteria, was that your boyfriend?

♱ preppy juhoon who ignored martin’s questioning of “dude, who are you looking at?” forcefully taking his eyes off of you.

♱ preppy juhoon who was completely unfocused at soccer practice, he didn’t understand why his mind kept straying back to you, you guys had one conversation but it seemed like that was enough to have him hooked and also who the hell is that guy that had his arm around your shoulder?

♱ preppy juhoon who had gotten home late, his parents weren’t home and his hair was wet from the usual rain which was his usual school day evenings.

♱ preppy juhoon who couldn’t help but feel more curious about you and found himself opening instagram and going through trial and error of who he knew who could possibly know you but couldn’t think of any. unfortunately that meant he had to call the only person who could find anyone on social media.

the phone barely rang twice before his best friend answered "what?" martin asked immediately.

"I need a favour," juhoon said, rubbing a hand over his face as he leaned back against his headboard.

♱ preppy juhoon who thanked martin for finding your instagram and hung up on him after he started asking too many questions.

♱ preppy juhoon who looked at your account and realized that you were private and only had about 30 followers, but he still took the risk of following you.

♱ preppy juhoon who woke up to you accepting his follow request and following him back.

♱ preppy juhoon who stalked all your reposts to see all of your interests and finding some type of way of incorporating it into him asking you out.

♱ preppy juhoon who waited about a week before he made his move.

───“hey,” juhoon slid up beside you, one hand tucked into the pocket of his hoodie as he stopped beside the bookshelf you were browsing through. his eyes followed your movements as you ran your fingers along the spines of different books, pulling one out every now and then only to put it back a moment later. “didn't see you in math today.”

“hey,” you replied, finally looking up from the shelf. the first thing juhoon noticed wasn't even your expression but the new slit through your eyebrow. “yeah, I woke up late. it honestly didn't make much sense to come.” you glanced back down at the book in your hands before looking at him again. “did I miss anything?”

“not really,” juhoon said with a shrug, leaning his shoulder against the shelf beside you. while you slid the book back into place, his eyes drifted toward your hands and immediately caught on another change. there was a small piece of jewelry sitting just beneath your knuckle that definitely hadn't been there before. “new piercing?”

“yup.” your face brightened instantly as you lifted your hand toward him so he could get a better look. “cool right?” you rotated your hand slightly so the light caught the jewelry before laughing. “hurt like a bitch though.”

juhoon couldn't help smiling as he looked at it.

“it is cool,” he admitted, his gaze lingering on your hand for a second longer before he looked away with a quiet sigh. “speaking of piercings...”

“yeah?” you asked, raising an eyebrow as you lowered your hand.

“I wanna get my ears pierced.”

the smile that spread across your face was immediate.

“oh really?” you asked, tilting your head slightly. “so you're taking up my suggestion.”

“yup,” juhoon nodded, unable to stop himself from smiling back. “and I was wondering if you'd like to come with me...” his voice trailed off as he watched your face carefully for any reaction.

when you simply waited for him to continue, he nervously rubbed the back of his neck. “you know, this town is small enough for there to probably only be one piercing place and that means you're definitely familiar with it so...”

“that would be cool,” you replied with a small nod, and juhoon immediately felt relief wash over him. “just let me know.”

“yeah, we can make a day out of it,” he said quickly, the words tumbling out before he could properly think about them. “like a, like a...”

“like a...” you repeated, clearly waiting for him to finish.

juhoon let out a long sigh as he looked down at the floor between you.

“like a date?”

he couldn't even bring himself to look up after saying it.

“a date?” your voice was soft enough that it made him lift his head despite himself. when he finally looked at you, your expression was even softer, surprise flickering across your face before a smile slowly appeared.

“wow,” you said with a quiet laugh. “um yeah, of course a date. I’d like that juhoon.”

“what?” his head snapped up fully now, disbelief written all over his face. “like seriously?”

you laughed, shaking your head as though you couldn't believe he was asking.

“yeah seriously.”

♱ preppy juhoon who picked you up at your house and could barely take his eyes off of you the whole drive.

♱ preppy juhoon who couldn’t stop his cheesy smile as you yelled at him to pay attention to your directions.

♱ preppy juhoon who felt like he was on fire when you grabbed his hand and dragged him into the joint piercing and tattoo shop.

♱ preppy juhoon who furrowed his eyebrows at your green haired friend who coincidentally worked at the front desk. (yeah he was still a little jealous)

♱ preppy juhoon who ignored the teasing of your friend who asked why he wasn’t at the gap store at the mall outside of town only smiling when you had roughly hit his shoulder.

“shut up and leave him alone.”

“defensive over your boyfriend already?”

♱ preppy juhoon who was surprised on how much it didn’t hurt, he was even holding your hand for safety measures.

♱ preppy juhoon who had barley listened to all the healing rules and things to upkeep, his focus was only on you who was admiring his piercing.

“you like it?” juhoon asked, looking down at you.

“I love it, it makes you look even prettier.”

♱ preppy juhoon who then followed you to the music store right across the street, he listened to you talk about your favourite artists and you did the same for him.

♱ preppy juhoon who then drove down to the local diner and shared a milkshake with you.

♱ preppy juhoon who drove you home but instead of you immediately going inside, the both of you talked for about an hour.

࿇… THE TALKING STAGE

❝won’t you die tonight for love?❞ - 𝓙oin me in death by 𝓗im

♱ preppy juhoon who brought you on more dates, some are out of town and others were places in town the both of you were already familiar with.

♱ preppy juhoon who met you at your locker every morning and walked you to where you usually met with your friends.

♱ preppy juhoon who liked to call you while he did his homework in the evenings.

♱ preppy juhoon who knew he was down bad when he hurt himself at soccer practice and you kissed his band aid and he practically lit on fire.

he nodded seriously as if you were giving him life changing advice. "I’ve never seen you around before," he said. "I’m juhoon."

your eyebrows furrowed slightly, you looked at him for a moment like you were trying to figure something out, like you were waiting for the catch, trying to understand why someone like him was suddenly talking to you.

"I know who you are," you said after a second. "I’m yn."

"nice to meet you yn.” you gave a small nod before turning your attention back toward the front of the classroom.

but juhoon found himself smiling at his desk for the rest of the lesson.

and every now and then, despite trying not to, he caught himself glancing your way again.

♱ preppy juhoon who watched you get called over to the teachers desk while everyone walked out, he noticed the annoyed expression on your face like it was a regular occurrence.

♱ preppy juhoon who sat with his friends at lunch, he ended up tuning out keonho’s rant about something that happened at his swim team practice when he noticed a certain girl walk into the cafeteria.

─── you stood in between a guy and a girl who both had a similar vibe to you, darker clothes, piercings, studs the guy had green hair and the girl had purple highlights, he scrunched up his face as the guy slung an arm around your shoulder as the three of you made your way towards the back of the cafeteria, was that your boyfriend?

♱ preppy juhoon who ignored martin’s questioning of “dude, who are you looking at?” forcefully taking his eyes off of you.

♱ preppy juhoon who was completely unfocused at soccer practice, he didn’t understand why his mind kept straying back to you, you guys had one conversation but it seemed like that was enough to have him hooked and also who the hell is that guy that had his arm around your shoulder?

♱ preppy juhoon who had gotten home late, his parents weren’t home and his hair was wet from the usual rain which was his usual school day evenings.

♱ preppy juhoon who couldn’t help but feel more curious about you and found himself opening instagram and going through trial and error of who he knew who could possibly know you but couldn’t think of any. unfortunately that meant he had to call the only person who could find anyone on social media.

the phone barely rang twice before his best friend answered "what?" martin asked immediately.

"I need a favour," juhoon said, rubbing a hand over his face as he leaned back against his headboard.

♱ preppy juhoon who thanked martin for finding your instagram and hung up on him after he started asking too many questions.

♱ preppy juhoon who looked at your account and realized that you were private and only had about 30 followers, but he still took the risk of following you.

♱ preppy juhoon who woke up to you accepting his follow request and following him back.

─── AND THATS HOW IT ALL STARTED..

♱ preppy juhoon who stalked all your reposts to see all of your interests and finding some type of way of incorporating it into him asking you out.

♱ preppy juhoon who waited about a week before he made his move.

───“hey,” juhoon slid up beside you, one hand tucked into the pocket of his hoodie as he stopped beside the bookshelf you were browsing through. his eyes followed your movements as you ran your fingers along the spines of different books, pulling one out every now and then only to put it back a moment later. “didn't see you in math today.”

“hey,” you replied, finally looking up from the shelf. the first thing juhoon noticed wasn't even your expression but the new slit through your eyebrow. “yeah, I woke up late. it honestly didn't make much sense to come.” you glanced back down at the book in your hands before looking at him again. “did I miss anything?”

“not really,” juhoon said with a shrug, leaning his shoulder against the shelf beside you. while you slid the book back into place, his eyes drifted toward your hands and immediately caught on another change. there was a small piece of jewelry sitting just beneath your knuckle that definitely hadn't been there before. “new piercing?”

“yup.” your face brightened instantly as you lifted your hand toward him so he could get a better look. “cool right?” you rotated your hand slightly so the light caught the jewelry before laughing. “hurt like a bitch though.”

juhoon couldn't help smiling as he looked at it.

“it is cool,” he admitted, his gaze lingering on your hand for a second longer before he looked away with a quiet sigh. “speaking of piercings...”

“yeah?” you asked, raising an eyebrow as you lowered your hand.

“I wanna get my ears pierced.”

the smile that spread across your face was immediate.

“oh really?” you asked, tilting your head slightly. “so you're taking up my suggestion.”

“yup,” juhoon nodded, unable to stop himself from smiling back. “and I was wondering if you'd like to come with me...” his voice trailed off as he watched your face carefully for any reaction.

when you simply waited for him to continue, he nervously rubbed the back of his neck. “you know, this town is small enough for there to probably only be one piercing place and that means you're definitely familiar with it so...”

“that would be cool,” you replied with a small nod, and juhoon immediately felt relief wash over him. “just let me know.”

“yeah, we can make a day out of it,” he said quickly, the words tumbling out before he could properly think about them. “like a, like a...”

“like a...” you repeated, clearly waiting for him to finish.

juhoon let out a long sigh as he looked down at the floor between you.

“like a date?”

he couldn't even bring himself to look up after saying it.

“a date?” your voice was soft enough that it made him lift his head despite himself. when he finally looked at you, your expression was even softer, surprise flickering across your face before a smile slowly appeared.

“wow,” you said with a quiet laugh. “um yeah, of course a date. I’d like that juhoon.”

“what?” his head snapped up fully now, disbelief written all over his face. “like seriously?”

you laughed, shaking your head as though you couldn't believe he was asking.

“yeah seriously.”

♱ preppy juhoon who picked you up at your house and could barely take his eyes off of you the whole drive.

♱ preppy juhoon who couldn’t stop his cheesy smile as you yelled at him to pay attention to your directions.

♱ preppy juhoon who felt like he was on fire when you grabbed his hand and dragged him into the joint piercing and tattoo shop.

♱ preppy juhoon who furrowed his eyebrows at your green haired friend who coincidentally worked at the front desk. (yeah he was still a little jealous)

♱ preppy juhoon who ignored the teasing of your friend who asked why he wasn’t at the gap store at the mall outside of town only smiling when you had roughly hit his shoulder.

“shut up and leave him alone.”

“defensive over your boyfriend already?”

♱ preppy juhoon who was surprised on how much it didn’t hurt, he was even holding your hand for safety measures.

♱ preppy juhoon who had barley listened to all the healing rules and things to upkeep, his focus was only on you who was admiring his piercing.

“you like it?” juhoon asked, looking down at you.

“I love it, it makes you look even prettier.”

♱ preppy juhoon who then followed you to the music store right across the street, he listened to you talk about your favourite artists and you did the same for him.

♱ preppy juhoon who then drove down to the local diner and shared a milkshake with you.

♱ preppy juhoon who drove you home but instead of you immediately going inside, the both of you talked for about an hour.

࿇… THE TALKING STAGE

❝won’t you die tonight for love?❞ - 𝓙oin me in death by 𝓗im

♱ preppy juhoon who brought you on more dates, some are out of town and others were places in town the both of you were already familiar with.

♱ preppy juhoon who met you at your locker every morning and walked you to where you usually met with your friends.

♱ preppy juhoon who liked to call you while he did his homework in the evenings.

♱ preppy juhoon who knew he was down bad when he hurt himself at soccer practice and you kissed his band aid and he practically lit on fire.

♱ preppy juhoon who knew it was time to ask you to be his girlfriend and luckily you had recently invited him over to your house for the first time.

♱ preppy juhoon who found himself at the front of your house ringing your doorbell with his heart in his stomach.

♱ preppy juhoon who’s face heated up when you greeted him, you were just so pretty.

♱ preppy juhoon followed you upstairs to your room where music was being played extremely loud.

♱ preppy juhoon who couldn’t help but think your room was extremely you, a bunch of posters of bands, tv shows, movies and celebrities, little trinkets all over, a cool lamp that looked like a dead flower, your bed looked old but not in a bad way more of a vintage way and it had black drapes hanging from the top, it was dark and your rug was in the shape of a skull with a bow on it.

“isn’t that from some kids show?”

“monster high, I’ve had it since I was five.”

♱ preppy juhoon who sat with you on the floor of your bedroom leaning against the velvet two seater couch that was leaned against the end of your bed.

─── the music you had playing was turned down now, faintly filling the room from the cd player sitting on the other side of your bedroom. it blended with the occasional hum of of cars driving down your street outside and the soft sound of you turning pages through a magazine you'd abandoned somewhere beside you.

juhoon's mind, meanwhile, was running a mile a minute, today was the day he could do this.

it was obvious the two of you liked each other. everyone else seemed to know it too. so why was this so terrifying?

“why are you sitting down there? come up.”

juhoon looked over immediately, finding you stretched out across your bed with your head resting against your pillows. your eyes stayed fixed on him as you patted the empty space beside you.

“come sit here with me.” you were genuinely going to be the death of him.

juhoon pushed himself up from where he'd been sitting on the floor and made his way over to the bed. the mattress dipped beneath his weight as he sat beside you, leaning back against the headboard and trying to ignore the way his heart sped up the second you smiled at him.

“you look tired,” you said softly, immediately tucking your head against his shoulder as though it was the most natural thing in the world. “you okay?”

juhoon let out a deep sigh and looked down at his lap.

“yeah, I’m good. just...” his voice trailed off as you reached over and picked up one of his hands. your fingers slipped between his as you examined the chipped black nail polish you'd painted on him weeks ago. “stuff on my mind, you know how it is. I just feel... I don't know.”

“yeah,” you murmured absentmindedly, juhoon flipped your hand over while you spoke, his thumb brushing over one of your rings as he traced the familiar lines of your palm.

“same. my skin is breaking out and my hair is dull and lifeless.” you sighed dramatically before glancing up at him. “have you ever watched jennifer's body?”

juhoon shook his head and you laughed softly. “that's probably not what you're feeling like anyways, like you could, that movie is for the girls.”

your fingers squeezed his hand gently before your expression softened. “do you wanna talk about it?”

your eyes lifted to his and gosh, that wasn't helping.

juhoon stared blankly at the posters covering your wall for a moment before finally sitting up straighter. the movement made you shift away from his shoulder, and he immediately missed the warmth.“yeah, uh.”

you pulled your legs underneath yourself and turned to face him properly, folding your hands neatly in your lap as you waited. “talk to me.”

juhoon looked at you, really looked at you and then immediately looked down again.

“I like you,” he blurted out, picking at your comforter with nervous fingers. “like a lot and it's been consuming me since the day I sat beside you in class.”

the words came out faster the longer he spoke.“and we have this official unofficial thing going on right now.”

he glanced up, you were staring at him so intently it almost made him forget what he was saying.“and that's cool and all, but I don't want that.” he shook his head. “I want to be official. I want to be real.”

“juhoo-”

he immediately rubbed both hands over his face.“and I know us getting together can be a lot. you'd have to deal with all my responsibilities but I just can't go on like this.” he laughed nervously, the sound strained. “I can't go on with you not being my girlfri-”

your lips pressed against his and everything stopped, juhoon’s brain completely short circuited.

for a second he genuinely forgot how to breathe, all the air seemed to leave his lungs at once as he stared at you, frozen in place while his heart practically tried to escape his chest.

slowly, carefully, he lifted a hand to your cheek his thumb brushed against your skin and then he kissed you back.

the second you pulled away he found himself unconsciously following after you, chasing your lips before he even realized what he was doing.

your laugh filled the room.“juhoon,” you said, smiling so brightly it made his chest ache. “I’d love to be your girlfriend. why wouldn't I?”

“uh...” he looked completely dazed. “uh I don't know.”

you laughed again and leaned forward to press a gentle kiss against his cheek. “you're so cute.”

juhoon could practically feel his soul leaving his body.

“was that what was bothering you?”

“maybe.” he shrugged weakly, still trying to recover.

you shook your head affectionately before leaning toward the foot of the bed to grab your laptop. “that's nothing to worry about, hoon.”

with your free hand you reached over and pulled him back down beside you until both of you were lying against the pillows again.

“let's watch nana.” you settled the laptop onto your legs before nudging his shoulder with yours. “I’ve been wanting to introduce you to it.”

juhoon looked at you for a moment, then at the laptop and then back at you.he'd walked into your room convinced he was about to have a heart attack.

now he had a girlfriend.
