pairing: model!jaehyun x fashion designer!reader

summary: there are some things that come with dedicating your life to fashion: a taste for finer fabrics, a splash of love for art, and an appreciation of the human body. none of these are supposed to include the hottest model you have ever laid eyes on, or the fact that you completely, utterly hate his guts. (oh, and try living in the same city for once and battle your internalized fears alongside the strange turn your repressed feelings took - all at the same time!)

themes: enemies to lovers (or just, the hate to love trope), angst, fluff, light smut

scheduled: 20.07.10, 8pm est.   

ps. the devil wears prada is a masterpiece but the title has nothing to do with the magazine company :p

New York. September, 2014.

You bite your nails out of force of habit. It’s not going to help. You know. But there’s hardly anything else to cool your nerves.

Every big step in your life comes with this fucking feeling of falling. You hold back your hand before it reaches your teeth, nervously tapping your feet against the ground from where you’re seated.

Your design comes up…eighth, is it? Yes, eighth. You’re sure of it. The music is really just worsening the already erratic beating of your heart. The place is larger than you’d expected, but Fendi doesn’t joke around when it comes to Fashion Week. You were surprised when they said they wanted to sponsor you, after you’d posted your ridiculous design on the internet. The surge of pride you felt was novel. You can remember every single detail, every step that lead you here. It’s terrifying.

You’re careful enough to smile at people who greet you, people in a much, much higher place than you are. You’re barely seventeen, you don’t know what to feel except sweetened trepidation in front of them. Potential sponsors, potential job offers. But you’re here for only one thing.

The world will know you, at least a little bit of you. You have to be brave enough to show it.

You decide you hate looking at the other ensembles before yours. They just make you nervous, a feeling that has been acquainting itself with you for the past couple of days. You think of details you could have added, patterns you could’ve etched—a gasp leaves your mouth under your waning control.

It looks so strange, seeing it over there. You’d been in the fitting room, you’d seen him wear it and yet—it looked as if it were not yours, shining under lights in a foreign country and among people of different refinery. And yet, you couldn’t help the smile that crawled across your face. It was beautiful.

Paris. September, 2014.

Jaehyun takes a step behind him against the white backdrop. He looks up and then to the side with his right hand in his pocket, the photographer already having taken several pictures of him in a series of flashes.

His cheeks are still warm from messing up the makeup a few minutes ago. He can’t help but feel a little ridiculous. Does he even want to go ahead with this big a step? He’s seventeen for god’s sake. But he likes it, at least some part of it.

And who could say no to Saint Laurent?

Show’s in fifteen minutes, someone reminds. His makeup artist scrutinizes his face and he can’t say he’s grown too used to it—the relay shutters of a camera, people fussing over him every few seconds, the certain dread of walking up on stage. It feels a little awkward, too much gel in his hair for him to not touch it and the belt too tight for him to not fidget. There’s a gentle buzz in the air you’d find in any backstage. This amount of people might have frightened him before but he only basks in the certainty of having the warm presence around him.

Sometimes there are more than just eyes trained on him. His face isn’t gold-plated, but they surely treat it that way.

Everyone is in rhythm around him, like parts of a giant machine, and he’s now one of the shiny new parts. Jaehyun looks for his name in the lineup, written on the floor in clear black before getting in position. This is Paris, he reminds himself. He’s far from home, so far from home and excitement is a word that falls short for what he feels.

Genre: high school!au; fluff, slight angst

Character/s: Kang Younghyun (YoungK of Day6) x fem!reader; the rest of Day6, & Kim Jieun

Summary: Younghyun is unaware of how he makes people feel, and you are unaware of how you make Younghyun feel.

A/N: This fic is set in the world of Day6′s music videos, which are What Can I Do?, I Loved You, and When You Love Someone. This also means that all of them are around the same age. Also, Kim Jieun is the name of the actress who played the female lead in the music videos, and she appears in this fic. I hope you enjoy reading!

In which we dig deeper under the surface of our favorite KPOP idols.

Sun Sign: Sagittarius (Fire)

Okay, I’m sorry, but the second I found out Younghyun is a Sagittarius, I went “Well that explains why he’s so annoying.” I DO NOT MEAN that Sagittarians are annoying. I love Younghyun dearly, and I think I could actually marry someone like him.

But… you have to admit. He is annoying in the most endearing way. And that kind of explains a Sagittarius. They are amazing people: they’re dedicated and hard-working and confident and enthusiastic and it’s really, really hard not to like a Sagittarius because they’re just so darn likable. But their confidence very quickly turns into overconfidence, and they’re pretty much always in your face. So, endearingly annoying is truly a good way to describe this sign - and Younghyun.

I’ve always said that Seungri from BigBang is the ultimate Sagittarius, and I still stand by that statement. But I also think Younghyun is one, too. He’s fearless, encouraging, optimistic, inspiring, loves traveling, is an amazing story-teller, has trouble keeping his mouth shut… all traits of a Sagittarius. I mean, don’t you think it’s obvious that he’s a Fire sign? You can practically feel his passion for music, his passion for writing, his passion for Day6, his passion for life just by looking at him. 

And he makes everything he does seem so damn effortless. But guess what? Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter which is the planet of LUCK. Sagittarians are predisposed to be the luckiest of the signs, and Younghyun embodies that to a T. He is good at playing the bass. He is good at singing. He is good at rapping. He is good at writing songs. He is good at languages. He is good-looking. BUT NOT JUST GOOD. No. At all of these, he excels. He’s amazing. In my humble opinion, he has the strongest, most powerful voice in the group, but when he sings, it’s like he’s not even trying! I don’t understand it!! Except I do because he’s a Sagittarius. There you have it, folks. Brian the Sagittarius.

Moon Sign: Pisces (Water)

So, even though having a Fire Sun sign and a Water Moon sign can be extremely tricky (since Fire and Water do not play well together), I am not surprised whatsoever that Younghyun is a Pisces Moon. If you ever wondered how he comes up with ideas for all the different Day6 songs he writes? Here’s your answer.

Pisces, being a Water sign, is known to be very emotional. But they’re not emotional in a sensitive, moody way like Cancer. And they’re not emotional in an intense, weird way like Scorpio. They’re emotional in a very dreamy, romantic way. They’re like an emotional sponge, too, in that they can absorb other peoples’ emotions - they’re empaths! In addition, Pisces also like to escape the real world by immersing themselves in something they love. They’re ruled by Neptune which is the planet of fantasy, so escaping reality is a pretty common thing among this sign. Many times, the activity they choose is writing, so it honestly really makes sense that Younghyun is a Pisces Moon. He writes some very emotional songs - romantic emotional songs and heartbreaking emotional songs. What a Pisces.

Along with being romantic and emotional empaths, Pisces are also super wise and intuitive. I feel like every member of Day6 can dole out some good advice, but Younghyun especially. He just seems like the type who would make sense of any problem you had and tell you how to work it out, barely even thinking about it. Like, even though he can be kind of mischevious, wouldn’t you trust him if he gave you advice? He just gives off that vibe to me, and I’m certain that’s his Pisces Moon.

Chinese Astrology: Water Rooster

Just like an actual rooster, the Rooster in the Chinese zodiac is known for having a flamboyant and colorful personality. Younghyun is certainly one of the more showy members of the band; he’s always making his presence known, just like an actual rooster. Roosters are also known for being highly intelligent and very well read with a good sense of humor. They are not afraid to argue, and they have no hesitation in saying what is on their mind. This sounds just like Younghyun to me. He is definitely not afraid to speak up and be like “Uh, no, that’s not true” or something like that. He does it all the damn time on After School Club! And, as we’ll see in his MBTI section, this is a recurring theme in his personality. But also - the highly intelligent part. Younghyun is super duper smart, I think we all know this. He writes amazing lyrics, he has his college degree, he is fluent in multiple languages… Need I go on?

Water Roosters, in particular, are known for being a little more emotional than other Roosters - which we see in his Pisces Moon. They are better with romantic relationships, and they tend to have an affinity for love songs. So I’m going to restate my earlier supposition that I could marry someone like Younghyun.

Numerology: Life Path 8

The life path number 8 is known as The Powerhouse. Now, I honestly think this is one of the best words to describe Younghyun. He is a total powerhouse is almost every possible way. He has a powerful voice, powerful writing skills, a powerful presence. So it’s really not a surprise that his Life Path is a powerful one.

The life path number 8 is also a very interesting one. It’s all about developing a positive relationship with money, power, and authority. 8s are known to be doers and achievers, and Younghyun is most certainly that. I think he’s also chosen the right career path if he’s going to fulfill his life path, too. Being a musician will definitely help someone work on developing a positive relationship with money, power, and authority.

MBTI: ENTP

Extroverted, Intuitive, Thinking, Perceiving

Younghyun is Extroverted, which is not a surprise. He is also very outgoing; he’s for sure one of the most talkative members. Being an extrovert, Younghyun draws energy from social situations and has a desire to be around other people. He doesn’t require alone time (though he may enjoy it) like an introvert would.

Younghyun is Intuitive. This means he is able to look at the big picture rather than the small details of a situation. He can think abstractly and is more likely to use his imagination to think about the possibilities. This is definitely evident in the way he is able to write all sorts of amazing, different songs. Now, obviously, we don’t know for sure what his romantic life has been/is like, but it doesn’t seem like idols are able to get a lot of experience in that area, especially after they debut. So being able to write romantic songs about relationships without actually being in one is a sure sign of an intuitive individual.

Younghyun is Thinking. He uses his brain to make decisions more than his heart. Reason and logic win out over emotion and feeling, and while this might not make sense because of his fiery passion and his romantic emotional side, but I totally see how he favors logic over emotion. He doesn’t ever seem irrational, and you can tell that every decision he makes is planned and well thought out.

Younghyun is Perceiving. He prefers to live his life in a more spontaneous manner, and he does not mind some chaos. He has no need for structure or lists. This also means his Thinking preference is more dominant.

The ENTP is known as the Debater. They are known for playing Devil’s Advocate just for the fun of it. They love to show off their quick wit, broad knowledge, and foolproof logic.

So I had noticed a few days ago that @woodendreams, a blog that I don’t follow but shows up on my dash from time to time, has suddenly started posted pictures of women, but you know what’s odd? 

They are a nature blog.

I believe that they have been possibly hacked by a porn bot, since the names under the pictures link to a porn site.

Please, do NOT reblog or favorite any of the pictures of the women that have been/are posted to their blog, and please check any of the blogs you follow or show up on your dash that have just a picture of a woman with their named linked under the image.

If you see that they suddenly have an influx of these types of pictures PLEASE notify them of what’s happening!

With everything that the staff have fucked up on the site, I’m worried that an innocent blog might get flagged, or censored, or even suspended/deleted/banned because of this.

The self-care guide for those of us who feel completely lost.

1. Keep makeup wipes next to your bed for those nights when you just want to crash, and can’t bring yourself to get up and wash your face.

2. Give yourself personal goals that will improve your mental and/or physical health. You can start small, and work up. Maybe try eating fruits with every meal? or stretching each morning? or fitting a fifteen minute walk in the sun every day (tip: big sunglasses can cover your face so you won’t even need to get ready, and you’ll look fly as hell with no effort at all)

3. Let your friends and family love and support you. There are people in your life who want to help, but maybe they just don’t know how. Tell them how you’re doing, a simple “I’m having a rough week, can you come over?” text is enough. Just being with someone, even just to watch a movie on the sofa with, can make your days a little easier. Isolation, even when it feels good, only makes things worse.

4. Make time for yourself, and the things you love. Make a point of spending 30 minutes every day for the things that make you happy. Maybe it’s drawing, or watching youtube, or taking a hot showers and blasting music, whatever it is, make time for it.

5. Allow yourself to feel your feelings. Don’t push off how you feel, letting it build up will only make it harder. If you feel like garbage, sit down and let it all out. If you’re having a tough morning, take things slow. Then, when the time comes, give yourself a little push to get going and keep you from wallowing. 

6. If you’re happy, let that shit shine! Don’t let the good moments get washed away, hold onto that feeling. Listen to your feel-good songs, dance around, maybe post about it. Make those moments into memories, especially when they feel few and far between.

7. Keep a list of good things. It might seem simple, but when something good happens write it down, and look back on it on the tough days. Maybe it’s something nice someone said, a joke you shared with a friend, someone holding the door open for you, or your dining hall had tater-tots. Every time you meet a goal you set for yourself, big or small, write that shit down! Kinda like before, keep track of the good things so you can prove to yourself they still exist when you feel like there is only bad.

8.  You have unlimited phone-a-friends in real life, use them. Feel like everything is awful and you can’t do anything right? Days like these make the world seem dull, but your friends can give you a clear perspective and help ground you. Can’t get yourself out of bed to eat breakfast? Ask someone to bring you food. (Tip: You don’t have to feel guilty for asking someone to help you manage, everyone at some point in their life needs it!)

9. Keep a water bottle and healthy-ish snacks by your bed. Easy things, like veggie chips or dried fruit can help give you that boost to get out of bed, and even if it dosn’t, at least you’ll still be nourishing your body.
