if it was anyone else, you wouldn’t have been so urgent, yet as soon as you got the text from hyunsuk that asahi was in a very bad mood, you were on your feet and rushing to the dorms.

“hey, y/n. he’s in his room. he hasn’t talked to us all day, i think one of his files was corrupted and he lost the song. he seems pretty upset and you were the first person we thought of to call.” the worry in his voice had your brow creasing, a frown falling on your face. 

it wasn’t that often when asahi got truly upset to the point of shutting himself away from everyone and when he did get like that he always texted you to ask you to come over. hearing hyunsuk explain that and realizing you got no texts or calls from your boyfriend all day had you nodding frantically, wanting to comfort him in any way you could.

“i’ll go talk to him, thanks for letting me know.” when hyunsuk walked away, you faced the door to asahi’s room. behind it there were the soft melodies of a song you didn’t recognize yet and you could only assume he was trying to recreate the song that had gotten deleted.

“sahi?” your voice was soft as you knocked on the door and a moment of silence followed as you tried to listen to an answer except you only heard the slow piano. luckily he never really got mad at you walking into his room unannounced so that was exactly what you did.

as you walked in, asahi’s eyes turned to you. he took in your outfit, noting how the colors seemed to match yet still clash at the same time. there was a brief moment where a smile almost overtook his face but he shook it off, the sorrow of the earlier hours catching back up to him.

“hey, sahi.” you sat on the small bench next to his work desk and you waited for a moment for a response. when nothing came you carried on, “hyunsuk told me what happened. how about you take a little break?”

“no,” his simple one word response probably would have been considered rude to others, and at first asahi worried that he would push you away with his tone yet you stayed, as you always did, because asahi meant the world to you.

“i have to finish this song.” asahi’s teeth came to tug at his bottom lip, a nonchalant shrug pushing his shirt up. 

“is it that important that you have to do it today? did yg give you a ridiculous deadline again?” although you hoped that wasn’t the case, it’s what seemed most likely when you noticed the scribbles of words in korean and japanese and even english but you couldn’t make anything out from where you were sitting.

“uh,” asahi hesitated for a moment, thinking about what to say but then realizing that it was too late to go back now. “actually it was supposed to be a present for our anniversary next week. i just needed to put the final touches on it but the file got corrupted and all the work i put in for the past few weeks was gone.”

if you hadn’t been paying attention you would have missed what he said. his voice was soft, not of embarrassment but of reluctance and your heart leapt at the thought of asahi writing a song for you and just you. 

“i wrote it about the first time we met. it was the first time i had ever seen you smile and i fell instantly for you.” as he thought back to that moment, and the lyrics he had written for the song, he laughed. the situation in which you had met was quite hilarious and the fact that he had made it into a song that asahi was actually quite proud of was astonishing to him.

“yea when you and the members walked around the store i work at wearing funny hats and you made a weird face at me as you checked out.” the memories flooded back to you. truthfully you were happy to have went to work that day because if not you wouldn’t have met asahi.

“hey i just wanted to make you laugh! you looked miserable up there folding clothes.” a soft chuckle escaped your boyfriend’s lips and you were just happy to see he was loosening up. 

“i needed a break from that place, just like you need a break now.” standing up, you held out your hand to him, a big smile stretching your lips when asahi took it. you leaned closer to him, pressing a kiss to his nose before dragging him out into the living room.

hyunsuk looked over as you emerged with asahi, and you noticed that junkyu and doyoung were also sitting on the couch. it was unclear of what they were doing, they all had their phones out and the tv was off but as soon as they saw asahi with his beautifully messy hair and slight smile, they perked up.

“we’re going for ice cream because my sahi needs a break from that room.” a sharp nod followed your statement. honestly you weren’t sure what you wanted to do but as soon as you left the room the idea came to you.

but before you could take any more steps you froze, shouting, “i left my phone in your room!” before releasing asahi’s hand to run back into his dimly lit space.

as you were gone, you heard asahi chuckle, his eyes following you as you turned to run. when he spoke, it was more into the air, not caring who or what heard.
