♡ NCT DREAM + the way they say i love you without saying “i love you”

LEE MARK says i love you in the little ways the sound of his giggles warms your chest. in the way he doesn’t have to be in front of you but the sound of his encouragement does all the work by pushing you a little forward in the right way and silently doing his best in supporting you. he says i love you without saying i love you by being your support at all times even if you don’t see it. it’s his giggle, that always follows his awkward statements, they tell you his inner feeling more than he would verbally.

HUANG RENJUN says i love you in his little display of affection. you know he is shy when it comes to his own emotions but he shows his appreciation and love for you by doing his best to meet your needed affection quota. even little reassuring pats and small hugs, they are sprinkled in between and always there when you need it. his hands intertwine with your whenever your hand looks lonely, and his fingers play with your hair when he is unconsciously watching you do nothing. his little touches that you don’t think he does purposely say a lot.

LEE JENO says i love you with his constant accommodation. while this behaviour can come across as pushover-y, he nevers lets his own emotions be overshadowed because to him, accommodating you is something that gives him a sense of joy. he loves you in the way he loves being the one who is most perfect for you, the one who understands your needs and wants perfectly enough to not spoil you but still spoil you. he is willing to do anything for you while also being the one to tell you no and stop you from doing something that wouldn’t turn out well. his accommodation of your every whim screams his love for you more than any grand gesture ever could.

LEE HAECHAN says i love you in his bouts of seriousness. for as long as you have known, he has always maintained his carefree, positive attitude about everything he has done and wants to achieve; the same was the case of you but when it really mattered, his bouts of sudden seriousness, that melts any doubt you’d ever have in his actions towards you or anything else, is what shows his care and love the most. it’s in this seriousness you know that in his mind, you do take a priority even if he doesn’t seem to care at other times and that’s its his confidence in what you can do that he keeps to himself when he knows he isn’t needed.

NA JAEMIN says i love you in the way he is a chronic smiler around you, whenever he leaves your presence, the stabbing pain on his cheeks will announce their presence because before that he didn’t notice how much they were hurting because he was focused on you. as if it were habitual, the text will come to you, “my cheeks hurt ☹️” every time. but regardless of the following pain, he always finds himself smiling at the littlest of things around you, maybe it was you or maybe it was something he will forever associate with you, he can’t hide his smile when he is around you.

ZHONG CHENLE says i love you in his stillness. the way he shows his love for you is in his daily, minute actions that he probably doesn’t know he does because it is woven into him. the blanket in the back of his car that is just for you, the tissue packet in his bag that is just for you, the way sundays are always left free just for you. his routine that bends and moulds to fit you into it perfectly, he still gets shocked when an abrupt plan fits into his schedule because he has unconsciously been making space for you anyway.

PARK JISUNG says i love you in his subtle clingy-ness and his almost abundant information about you. you never have to worry about anything when he is around, without even asking he just knows what you want and what you would prefer by observing your body language. the times he brings over himself because your voice over the call seemed like you wanted to ask him but didn’t, you always feel how much he loves you when he does this thing where communication is unspoken but still said.

Taeyong didn’t have the best luck when it came to romance.

Well, that wasn’t entirely true, he had been in a few relationships before. He had been through the first date giddiness several times and that fluttery, nervous feeling you get when you first start to get to know someone. He had experienced the lows of heartbreak and the sorrow of a breakup, the awkwardness of a crush, and— well, you get the point. 

SYNOPSIS. The many times Jeong Jaehyun hesitated in life and the two times he didn’t. — or alternatively, in which Jaehyun realized that throughout the years as a pairs skater, the only constant he had in his crazy athletic life was you. He would never hesitate to say that the person who kept him going for so long was and always will be you. Jaehyun would never hesitate in admitting his love for you and as you complete your last short program together before retiring, he was determined to do it every day of his life.

SIX, FIVE

JEONG JAEHYUN HESITATED MANY TIMES IN LIFE.

The first time he did so, he was just a boy shy of six years old clutching onto the local ice rink’s railing. His mother enrolled him in ice skating lessons after the sport caught her son’s attention. Weeks before that day, she watched the national championships and Jaehyun’s big eyes were glued to the colored screen. A dozen questions tumbled out of his mouth, the words all jumbled together as excitement took over him. Even after the event ended, figure skating remained Jaehyun’s main topic of conversation. When his curious mind exhausted her of all her answers, his parents believed that enrolling him in the sport would give him better answers than what they, as inexperienced folks, could ever offer.

a/n: so I predicted 17k for this…aNYWAYS four long months and it finally dropped *claps everywhere* !! this fic is laced with all forms of angst so please excuse the sheer amount of it hehe!

Also just as a heads up CFDA stands for Council of Fashion Designers of America. I really hope you enjoy the fic, and I worked super duper hard on it so feedback would be greatly appreciated :)))

there is a boy.

there is a boy that sits at the second row, third column in your class. he wears square-ish round spectacles and has light brown hair and he speaks korean and chinese (and a little bit of japanese — because you heard him so when he spoke with shotaro, another classmate).

he often speaks gently but on a few occasions when one of his friend hops into class and snuggles him, he somehow rages a little and has an annoyed expression. his voice will grow a little louder and he will shove that particular friend off (his name is donghyuck, you think).

his laugh is sweet, sometimes soft in a chuckle yet sometimes when he is extremely happy, he laughs loudly and his eyes crinkle at the corners that you can barely see his pupils

I'M STILL INTO YOU —

He walked closer, shamelessly sitting at the table where you were writing earlier.

“What's that?”

“What's what?”

Haechan tilted his head, letting out a chortle. He was not convince with your behavior, cocksurely leaning backwards with his two palms pressed against the table.

“that notebook... is your diary” Rolling your eyes, he chuckled, clearly stating what's obvious just to make fun of you.

Haechan kept his eye on you as you hesitantly move your arm to hide your diary behind you, grip is tight as ever. Or else your secret may spill, thinking this might be the end of you...

♡ NCT 127 AS HIGH SCHOOL BOYFRIENDS

MOON TAEIL

you’ve been classmates for the longest time and he has always liked you but never approached you as more than classmates. he asks you out because he decides he doesn’t want to regret it later and he is so glad he did when you said yes

when you start dating, the entire school knows the next day because he was so shocked it really happened and asked all his friends if he actually confessed lmfao

concert, orchestra, library dates are your thing and if you aren’t artistic, he loves that you indulge in his interests

lazy dates are his favourite, just sitting in your room or dozing off while you’re in each other’s company he would serenade you out of nowhere, love songs galore and at this point, you might as well have your own ost lol + the way he would look at you lovingly while singing!

apado gwenchana— HAHAH BYE

the type to help you with homework and actually study together

since he would likely do music on the side while dealing with school, you help him de-stress and actually study instead of getting lost in the music.

your words of encouragement, affection and trust in him helps him through finals oh, he would taeil is shy about kissing you at first then, there is no escape because he is so clingy!!

high school would basically be the setting of his and your music drama

PAIRING. best friend!jaehyun x female!reader GENRE. college!au, friends-to-lovers!au, mutual pining, fluff WORD COUNT. 900+ WARNINGS. reader is disappointed in herself bc of her grades lmao

author’s note. quickly wrote this after waking up from a nap. i recently just finished book lovers from emily henry so it pulls from there!

University midterms are the absolute worst. You slave away at the library, in a study room, or at your tiny desk only for you to lose hours of sleep for a few fifty-minute exams. You sacrifice your mental and physical health over scantrons that take up sixty percent of your overall grade, throwing you into a tornado of stress that you can’t pull yourself out of. They push you past your limits, only for you to get a C- on all of them. 

You should be happy. C’s get degrees. You passed, your friends had said as they prepared to celebrate the end of exams and the start of break. Unlike you, they are over it. But to you, those C’s translated to F’s. Anything below an A- meant failure and oh, how you had failed.

It upsets you beyond belief but no one really knew how much it affected you. They all had said you would get over it in a couple of hours, not knowing you have been beating up your smart little brain for days now. None of your friends came to check on you. That is, except one.

~ Like A Movie ~

Pairing: Na Jaemin X GN!reader

Genre: Fluff, 1960s!AU

Warnings: None!

Word Count: 0.6k words

AN: Happy (very) late birthday to Kiri @kiri-ah, the angel of our eyes and the kindest person I know!! I can’t apologise enough that this fic is nearly a month late ;-; but I hope the wait will be worth it once it’s finally finished! Also, a year ago I published my first fic, which was Jaemin angst, so I’m coming full circle with some Jaemin fluff today! This could be a prequel of that story ;-;

You glanced at the moviegoers ahead of you: a teenage couple - the epitome of two perfect lovebirds. You heard their soft giggles and hushed whispers, watched as their fingers intertwined and when they gave each other playful pecks on the cheeks. You smiled at the sight: young love. And here you were at 20 - waiting to go on your first date.

Jaemin met you for the first time on the phone after he accidentally dialled one digit above his own when trying to reach his friend. You both had a laugh over the mistake but continued talking, since you were curious about your number-neighbour. After a few months or so of calling, you both agreed to meet in the new cinema that opened in your hometown. 

But you’ve been waiting for perhaps 20 minutes, and the movie was about to start soon. ‘Were you stood up?’, you wonder. Was this really how things were meant to go? Maybe he met the wrong person and thought that was you? Maybe he thinks you stood him up? A few minutes later, you heard someone from the row behind you shout something - his voice thankfully not loud enough for the entire theatre to hear.

“Have you seen someone named Y/N, I sent them a blue dress/suit (whichever you prefer) and they’re probably wearing it?”

You turned around and saw a dark-haired man with a jovial facial expression standing up. He wore a similar outfit as you: a navy blue blazer and dress pants, with a white button-up and a tie. When he noticed you looking at him, his face faltered and he returned to his composed state. 

“Sorry”, he apologised profusely before sitting down.

“Wait, are you my number neighbour?” 

He looked back at you, relief flooding his eyes. “Are you the one ending in 4?”

“Yes!” you exclaimed. “And yours ends in 3. I love the outfit you sent in the mail, by the way. Blue is my favourite colour!”

Jaemin’s face lit up, and he immediately left his seat to come sit next to you. You laughed softly at his eagerness and was happy to finally meet the lovely human he had been speaking to for the past few months. You were the sonorous little bell in his ears that rang everytime you giggled at his words, sang or spoke. And now, without the filter of the landline, he could hear you.

He could see you. He saw the ethereal light of the setting sun touch your gorgeous skin and shimmer in your hair, then sparkle in your eyes when you gazed into his own.

“I’m so excited to see it!!” you gasped when the lights of the arena went down.

Themes and Warnings: college! au, gamer! au, streamer! au, friends with benefits au, fuckbuddy au, food, alcohol consumption, profanity, references to anime, heavy angst, fluff, comedy, sexual tension, kissing, suggestive, comedy, more tba (apart of the glitch mode series)

Wc: 0.5k

Summary: Na Jaemin has always been player 1, the one at the top of the player chart with all the wins and everything he could possibly want. Being the best sometimes got to his head and unfortunately for you, you were the girl who was hopelessly in love with him, eager to please. It’s sad really, the fact he only ever saw you as player 2.

Notes from brooke: after debating between releasing another taeyong fic (yes ignore yesterdays teaser it does not exist), i have decided to be normal and choose jaemin this time around 😌 i am actually having a lot of fun writing this fic, and it’s my very first official jaemin fic so i’m pretty excited for it!! it’s one of the longer fics from the series so i decided that it deserved its own teaser<3

(send an ask to be added to the taglist!)

▶ BACK TO MAIN MASTERLIST 

You led a very fulfilling life, or so you liked to tell yourself. You enjoyed what you studied in university (minus the occasional mental breakdowns at 3 am) and were able to visit your family every holiday break. You had a friend group that you knew you could always count on and an internship that was going so well you were almost guaranteed a summer job there. On most fronts, you were a winner, breezing through life with only the most minute of hurdles.

Wrong. You didn’t feel like much of a winner at the moment, sitting in your car in total silence at god knows what time in the morning, drumming your fingers on the steering wheel. In front of your car was a frat house, one that you had been summoned to because of a certain someone.
