Inspired by this post.

Kim Jongdae was a notorious heartbreaker. Rumor had it he’d turned down over twenty proposals, one of which was from a princess. Those rejected swore he had a heart of ice under that charismatic mask, unfeeling and even delighting in the pain he caused. Considering how much wealth he’d amassed in the few years since starting his company, one assumed he was simply wary of gold diggers, holding out for the one who wanted him and not the money in his bank account.

But the truth was much simpler than that.

A ⇴ AFFECTION

Jongdae loved to cuddle you, but he also knew whenever you weren’t in the mood for affection too. You never wanted to hurt his feelings by pushing him away, but once you were feeling better, he would be straight back over to you.

B ⇴ BUMP

He worried about you a lot as the days passed and your bump got bigger and bigger. Jongdae took on more and more responsibility in order to make life easier for you, from big tasks around the house, to even the smallest of things like picking up your phone charger when you needed it so you didn’t have to bend down and grab it.

C ⇴ CRAVINGS

There were never any complaints from Jongdae whenever you were experiencing cravings, he was always more than happy to help you out and settle your cravings down too. He couldn’t begin to imagine how tough it must be for you when you wanted food so badly, and so he’d always get it as quickly as he could.

D ⇴ DUE DATE

As your due date approached, the nerves definitely began to kick in slowly for you both. The two of you spent even the weeks prior to your due date making sure that everything was organised so that you had less things to worry about when the time came. Jongdae made sure that everything was organised around the house, letting you rest and simply shout out any orders that you had for him to fulfil.

E ⇴ EMOTIONS

Jongdae was quite an optimistic person most of the time, and so whenever he felt himself getting nervous, he’d always remind himself of the end goal, and your baby coming into the world. There were times when he had worries and would think of the bad things that were coming your way, but all of that was far outweighed by the knowledge that once all of that passed, he’d be able to call himself a dad.

F ⇴ FAMILY

Both of you were very close to your family’s and so you always made sure to have them involved. Whenever the two of you had news, or a new scan photo from an appointment, both sets of parents were the first to see them and bask in your excitement together. They’re always the first ones to offer support to you both whenever you need it which you’re both grateful for, especially with Jongdae’s schedule.

G ⇴ GENDER

The two of you decided to wait to see the gender of your baby once you’d given birth. Neither of you were particularly fussy about whether you had a girl or a boy, the only thing that the both of you were worried about was that they were healthy, and after that, then you could celebrate if it was a boy or a girl.

H ⇴ HEARTBEAT

When Jongdae heard the beat of your baby’s heart for the very first time, you could tell just how emotional it was for him. He tried his hardest to keep it together as he held the monitor to his ear, but as soon as the thuds got louder as it moved closer to where your baby rested, he failed to hold it all in any longer.

I ⇴ “I LOVE YOU”

Actions spoke louder than words for Jongdae, and so he’d often come home with a few of your favourite things to try and cheer you up whenever you had a particularly rough day. He’d always show you that he paid attention by buying the things that you liked, silently letting you know that he loved you.

J ⇴ JEALOUSY

There were moments when Jongdae would find himself unintentionally getting jealous of you because you always got to be around the bump, whilst he had to go to work or do something. That jealousy wouldn’t last for long though, because as soon as he saw you in pain, he was glad that you were the one carrying the bump, as you were much stronger than he was to deal with pregnancy and the bad times that came with it.

K ⇴ KICKS

He’d often lose track of time whenever your baby was kicking as Jongdae settled beside your bump. You’d be fast asleep above him whilst he kept feeling around for little bumps, often staying awake right through until his alarm went off the following morning, leaving him absolutely exhausted at the studio the next day.

A/N: My first Chen writing to celebrate his birthday :)

You had been waiting outside your building for Chen for nearly 10 minutes. He had promised to meet you here for date night, but you were starting to think you might just give up and go back in. No sooner had thought crossed your mind, someone snuck up beside you and placed a quick kiss on your cheek.

You jumped slightly as you looked round and found Chen grinning at you.

"Where have you been?" you asked, trying to be stern, but failing miserably when you couldn't help but smile back.

"Does it matter? I'm here now," he replied, pulling you in for a proper kiss before you could respond.

"You're lucky you're cute," you told him, squeezing his cheek.

He grabbed your hand away from his face and laced his fingers through yours so you could walk to the restaurant hand-in-hand.

"Honestly, I just took longer getting ready than I'd planned for," he explained as the two off you headed off. "I wanted to make sure I was looking my best for you."

"You always look amazing."

"So do you. Especially right now."

"Thanks, I put a lot of effort in too," you said, doing a little pose and making him laugh.

With your hand still in his, he pulled you close again and bringing your hand to his lips pressing a quick kiss to the back of it.

A/N: A request from my old blog from @noona-clock's T (@trishmarieco)

It was a complete accident. Sort of. You wanted to go to the carnival, but tickets were crazy expensive nowadays. Seriously, what was up with people charging crazy amounts for some rides and cheap games? The only way to get cheap tickets were for couples. So, you thought it’d be a great idea to call one of your acting buddies to play boyfriend. But instead of texting Jongin, you texted Jongdae. Whoops.

A/N: So it’s Jongdae’s birthday and I decided to write something for it. This is a quick read though. I hope you all enjoy this. Also, please send lots of love to Jongdae. ❤️

Living alone has its perks. You didn’t have to take into account someone else’s needs or “rules”. You don’t have to clean up anyone else’s messes. You could decorate your place to your liking. And of course, peace and quiet.

At first you didn’t mind having to live alone. You were excited, actually. It was your first time to have a place of your own. Growing up, you’ve shared a room with your sister. Even in college, you had to rent out a place with a roommate because you couldn’t afford a solo room. But now that you were working and with a stable job, it was basically all you could ever ask for.

When you moved into your place, you literally spent the whole day decorating your bare apartment to make it more homey. You bought plants and paintings and shelves which you filled with your books. It was perfect for you in the first month. But after that, you started to dislike the quietness of your apartment. Sure, you had friends but they had their own lives too. You couldn’t dare ask them to spend every possible time with you, although you were sure they’d drop everything for you.

Another thing that you hated with living alone was that there was no one to comfort you when you were scared. You were almost never scared of anything, quite frankly. Except this time. It was raining. Well, you weren’t scared of the rain itself. In fact, you loved it. For you, it meant growth and cleansing. But what you absolutely hated and were scared of is the thunder and lightning. These two only meant destruction to you. So when you heard the thunder booming and saw the lightning flashing, you couldn’t help but whimper.

You buried yourself in your bed with tons of blanket. It was your attempt to hide. Being alone made everything else worse. At least when you shared your room with your sister, she’d talk to you about things she did that day so you’d get distracted, or when you were with your roommate, she’d blast off loud music to overpower the sound of the thunders. Right now though, you were alone. The thought of being alone in such gloomy weather was enough to bring tears in your eyes. What started as a lone tear turned into a river of tears. You were crying and then the next thing you knew you were wailing and sobbing.

With your state, you almost didn’t notice the knock on your door. At first it was just three consecutive knocks, but when you didn’t answer, the knocking became more frantic. The sound was continuous and loud enough to get your attention. Without thinking about it, you went straight to your door, completely forgetting to compose yourself and to wipe the tears off of your face.

You were shocked to see your best friend, Jongdae, by the door. He was wet and he was breathing heavily, looking like he just ran a marathon. You stood there frozen and blinking for a couple of seconds. Jongdae’s frantic look morphed into something softer.

“J-Jongdae?” You sniffed.

“I’m late, aren’t I?” He asked.

“For what?” You silently said.

“You’re crying.” He engulfs you in a hug. “I’m sorry I’m late, I should’ve been with you earlier. I know you’re scared.” He said it with such a soothing tone, you almost cried a new batch of tears.

“Ssshh, darling, I’m here now.”

He leads you back into your bed and cuddles with you. If there wasn’t a thunderstorm tonight, you would have blushed at the position. You rarely ever cuddled with him, despite him being your best friend for the longest time.

After a few minutes of silence, he starts singing softly, filling the air with his angelic voice. You immediately calmed down. Right there, in his arms with his voice softly on the background you felt safe. You were safe.

Description: Maybe Jongdae wanted to go to prom with you but things happen and here we are now

“Hey.” Jongdae spoke shyly. His fingers fumbled with his jacket sleeve as he spoke. When I looked past him, I could see an old, beaten up CD player on the hood of his car, and if I strained just enough I could make out the music, faint, as if it was off in the distance.

“What are you doing here? Prom’s not over yet, go back and have fun.” Jongdae shrugged. “I stopped having fun the minute I walked in.” My brows twisted in confusion. “How come? You’ve liked Yoonah since grade school!” Of course I wanted my best friend to have fun at prom, but I couldn’t help the bitterness I felt deep down.

“Actually… she’s liked me since grade school. I just couldn’t tell her the truth because I didn’t want to hurt her. But that’s not why I’m here. I came here to make sure you were okay.” He said concerned, his eyes darted around my face, as if he was searching for something. I laughed sarcastically, more bitterness taking over me as the conversation progressed. “Why wouldn’t I be?” I said, rolling my eyes at him, mentally wishing this little talk would be over so I could get back to sulking alone in my room. Jongdae stepped closer as I spoke. “Yep. Everything’s fine.”

In that moment all I could do was smile to hide the tears threatening to spill. Behind my back I crossed my fingers that he wouldn’t notice I was seconds away from crying my heart out. “You’ve always been excited about prom. You were probably babbling about it before we even knew how to talk, and now that it’s finally here, you rush home not even an hour in? Something happened Y/n. I’m your best friend and I know you’re not okay. Talk to me. Tell me what’s wrong.” The intense look of sincerity made me cave. I was trying so hard to keep what happened tonight from him, but Jongdae’s relentless. Once he knows something’s not right, he doesn’t stop until everything is right again.

“I was looking for Sehun. He’d been gone for like twenty minutes. Chan checked in the bathroom for me, I looked all over the gym, but he was nowhere to found. Yixing said he saw him head to his car when he went outside for a smoke break, so I went out there and I found him and some girl...” My voice cracked and I couldn’t finish the rest of the sentence, not that I wanted to. It was so embarrassing. I was at the one place I’d dreamed about since I was a kid with the guy of my dreams and he left me to go screw some girl in his car. I couldn’t believe I was stupid to think he actually wanted to spend prom with me.

Tears fell from my eyes the more I thought about how the night went instead of how I had always dreamed. Jongdae grabbed me tight and pulled me in for a hug, honestly a hug from him was the only thing that ever really calmed me down when I started crying.

“Shit Y/n, I wish you would’ve told me instead of leaving. I can’t believe that douchebag did that. He’s such a dick and I’m so fucking sorry I let him take you to prom.” Jongdae whispered against the top of my head, bringing a hand up to softly play with my hair.

“W-what?” I sniffled, leaning back to face him. “What do you mean ‘let him’ take me to prom?” He went silent, and his facial expression gave off the idea that he said more than he should’ve. “Uh,” He started. I continued staring at him, waiting for him an explanation.

“Sehun begged me for months to let him take you to prom. All the guys knew I had planned on taking you, I had already pre-ordered our tickets at the beginning of the school year, but he said he had the biggest crush on you. I knew we weren’t dating or anything, I just wanted to make sure you had the prom night you had always wanted, but I went ahead and told him he could. But, fuck, if I knew he was gonna pull some shit like this I would have never agreed.”

I was shocked to hear the words coming from his mouth. “Are you serious?” Was the only thing I could think to say. There was no way what he said was real. Jongdae shook his head yes, a stern look covering his features. “This has to be some sort of joke, why would you go through any of that trouble for me?” I asked.

“Y/n, I would do anything for you. You’re the most important person in my life. My best friend.  The little sister I always wanted. Your happiness is my happiness, and I thought that doing that would turn out great for you but unfortunately not and if I would’ve known, I would’ve beat Sehun’s ass the first time he asked.” Jongdae said without thought. Everything Jongdae did showed just how much he cared for me especially in times like these. No matter what happened, I could always count on him to be there for me. Whether I stubbed my toe or a boyfriend cheated on me, he was always right by my side. I hugged onto him tighter, letting him embrace me and everything go silent except for the music still playing from the CD player Jongdae had brought along.

“Dance with me?” Jongdae whispered in my ear after a while. I looked at him, puzzled. “Huh?”

“I want you to dance with me, as in get back in your dress, redo your hair, fix your makeup, and come dance with me. We’ll take a selfie or two and then we’ll dance. Things might’ve gone to shit at school, and if I had a time machine I’d go back and fix it all, but I don’t. This is the closest thing you’ll get to a retry of the night and I want it perfect. I want it with me, how it should’ve been in the first place. What do you say?“

“I’d love to.” I said, smiling into Jongdae’s chest. “Go, go! Let’s do this right.” He said, letting me go and shooing me back inside.

I sat down at my makeup desk, quickly pulling out everything I used earlier tonight, and began trying to hurriedly recreate the makeup look I’d done. I knew Jongdae was outside waiting on me, so I tried to do a simpler version. Less eyeshadow, less blending, and a little shimmer later my eyeshadow was done so I quickly applied mascara. I hadn’t really messed up my hair since I came home, so I left it alone.

I jumped up and grabbed my dress out of the closet. I stripped out of it as soon as I’d gotten home, but I was so excited to be back in it. I managed to zip it up myself and started looking around for the sandals I’d bought just for night. I had plenty of shoes I could’ve worn, but I was just so excited, I couldn’t help myself. Once I had the shoes laced up, I stepped back and looked in the mirror.

It was really prom night. A moment of my life I’d been waiting for for as long as I could remember. A night I’d dreamed about. I’d watched so many movies and read so many stories about this night. I didn’t think anything good would come from this night, not after Sehun. But Jongdae came in and saved the day, just like he always did. I couldn’t be more thankful for him.

Thinking about Jongdae made me realize that he was still outside waiting, so I grabbed my corsage and ran down the hall and out the front door. He was sitting in the driver's seat of his car. The music still played from the cd player, only this time it was louder and I could actually make out what was playing. It happened to be one of our favorites to sing together.

“You look amazing.” He said, not missing a beat.

“Thank you.”

“Are you ready for the moment you deserved?” He said, getting out of his car.

“More than ready!” I couldn’t even try to contain my smile.

Jongdae mirrored my smile as he turned to the cd player and started skipping through songs until he found the right one. It was an old love song, but it was one of my favorites and he knew that. He turned back to me and reached a hand out to me. “Y/n, may I have this dance?”

I nodded, stepping closer to him. My hands found their way to his shoulders and his found their way to my hips. I rested my head on his shoulder and just enjoyed the moment. Jongdae never failed to amaze me.

“You didn’t have to go through all this trouble for me.” I whispered, head still on his shoulder. “Sehun ruined something that should’ve been one of the best nights of your life. I couldn’t just sit back and do nothing.”

“Thank you.” I looked back up at him. “Thank you so much.”

“You don’t have to thank me, you deserved this. I should’ve done more and I never shou-,”

“Hey now,” I interrupted him. “This is perfect. This is better than anything I could’ve asked for, so don’t blame yourself for anything. Sehun’s actions aren’t your fault. He’s a dick anyways, let’s just forget him. After tonight, I certainly will.”

“Are you sure?” He asked, voice low. I watched the concern set in his eyes and I knew he was prepared to do anything else just to make sure I truly enjoyed tonight.

“Yes. Maybe some food later, but for now this is amazing and I couldn’t be more grateful to have you as a best friend.” I said and I meant it. I leaned my head back on his shoulder and I felt him finally relax.

“I would do anything for you, never forget that.” Jongdae said, resting his head on top of mine. “I know.”
