A/N: i’m sorry if it’s not what you wanted because i didn’t really understand, but i hope you like it! 

you guys met through Seungkwan, kinda 

after a rough night of practice, all the members are too tired to even think about cooking at home 

cough Mingyu cough 

it’s past 12 am and they are starving 

so they head to their go to restaurant by their practice room 

“hi can i take your order?” you smile tiredly at the large group that just came in, 

barely recognizing their faces tbh 

“yeah can we get..” one guy starts listing their order, while you hurry to write it all 

“Y/n?? is that you??”  Seungkwan interrupts his hyung, staring at you with a hand over his mouth 

you start to focus as you squint 

“Seungkwan?” you exclaim 

you scan the rest of their faces, “and they must be your members!” 

“how have you been? why are you in Seoul?” 

you calm yourself and say amused, “I should take your order first, i’m sure your members are hungry Seungkwan” 

he reddens as the others laugh at your teasing tone

once you leave all the members turn to Seungkwan 

“who was that?” Minghao asks, being right next to him 

“ahhh, we pretty much grew up together she lived in my neighborhood” 

“I could barely recognize her she looks different” Seungkwan hums as an afterthought 

“i’m sure you do too” Minghao says making everyone burst into laughter

the rest of the night goes pretty smoothly

even when Seungkwan calls you over to sit down, saying you MUST meet the members 

you and Seungkwan are laughing together exchanging phone numbers, promising to keep in touch from now on 

Minghao didn’t think much of you other than you were Seungkwan’s cute friend, 

nothing else 

but one night, he leaves the practice room on a break 

just wanting to go take a walk, to relax his mind 

it’s probably like two am when he sees two figures across the street 

at first he just looks away, thinking its probably a couple wanting to relax like him 

“SIR! You need to go home, look I’ll call you a taxi” 

he immediately notices the way the tone reflects fear, despite how strong it comes off

taking quick, long strides he does the first thing at comes to mind 

“babeee, you wanna see something cool?” 

he has his arm thrown around the girl’s shoulder, and looks down to make eye contact 

and it only takes a few moments for you both to recognize each other 

your mouth opens in shock, but you keep your composure realizing what he was trying to do

Minghao turns and glares at the man, who he realizes is drunk 

“why are you talking to my girl”  

this fluttering feeling you felt was totally not appropriate for the situation 

his arm tightens around your shoulder protectively 

the man stumbles a bit, but even his drunk mind is able to simply mumble a few words and walk away

heart still racing, you turn to him 

“Minghao right?” 

“yeah, and Y/n?” he takes his arm off your shoulder

it was nice while it lasted 

“well thank you Minghao” 

“you welcome,” he cracks a smile, “though you could’ve just ran away, or slapped the dude” 

you huff, “well you didn’t have to come pretend to be a boyfriend either” 

so maybe he’s a bit of a romanticist 

he shrugs and says 

“where are you going? i’ll walk you”

“please i’m sure you have things to do, i’ll be fine” you shake your head at him, walking ahead 

he follows you

“well what kind of a man would I be, i definitely can’t, especially since you’re Seungkwan’s friend” 

you gasp, eyes widening, “do NOT tell Kwannie, you know he’s a worry wart!!” 

“i won’t,” he laughs, “why are you even out this late?” 

“work,” you raise an eyebrow, “who else is going to feed people like you who eat past 12 am” 

he laughs again nodding 

and you can’t help but feel surprised at how comfortable the two of you guys are 

“so what was that cool thing you wanted to show me?” 

“ummm myself?” 

and he actually dabs 

dabs

“oh gosh nooo” you scrunch up your nose in disgust

“you have a problem with dabbing?” 

“it’s stupid” you deadpan 

“i guess we can’t be friends then” he shakes his head disappointingly 

you’re about to retort but Minghao gets a call

you wait by him as he answers, rocking back and forth on your heels 

“where are you we need to finish” Minghao looks at you 

“right now?” he answers Soonyoung

“yeah” 

“okay” he answers reluctantly, i’ll be there soon” 

you stand patiently, already understanding the call

“see, you do have things to do” 

you smile, already making the motion to wave goodbye and walk away 

but

“let me give you my number”

he stares into your eyes confidently, somehow making you automatically hand him your phone

“wait why?” 

there’s unwanted butterflies in your stomach

“text me when you get home, so I know you’re safe”

with one last smile, he turns around, going back

as you walk back, you can’t help your heart that’s beating so rapidly

when you get home you text him right away

to your surprise he responds quickly, with a short ‘i’m glad’ 

the typing bubble pops up

‘but idk if we can keep talking if you dislike dabbing’ 

so here starts the back and forth playful arguments

past that though, the friendship you have with Minghao is...

probably way to affectionate to be considered a normal friendship

he never fails to ask about how your day is going 

while you ask about him about his

you tease him to try to pull some spoilers out of him 

cue him sending you a bunch of selfies of him dabbing in return 

he texts you goodnight,,

and you stare at your phone nervously as you type out your response 

you squeal, immediately go to delete, 

internally calling yourself crazy 

except you press SEND 

after realizing what you did you fling yourself headfirst into your pillow 

because you did not just text Xu Minghao goodnight 

WITH A HEART

no no no you’re absolutely dying of embarrassment 

you phone pings, and you over dramatically pick it up

your grip tightens on your phone as your eyes stare at the notification

he sent a heart back 

oh my god 

you didn’t know that he was grinning widely laying his head down on his pillow 

clutching the phone closer to him, he lets out a sigh 

yes imagine soft minghao tears

thughao is totally losing his street cred for being an absolutely softy for you 

“GUYS MINGHAO IS TEXTING Y/N” 

Mingyu yells, his voice echoing in the dorm 

“SHUT UP YOU PUNK”

Minghao yells at him, glaring intensely 

yeah he’d probably regret exposing Minghao later but all the members rushing into their room, was just too funny 

see, Minghao’s not really the type to keep secrets from his members 

especially ones about a girl he really liked 

and they approved, but the problem with telling Seventeen.. 

THE ENDLESS TEASING 

Junhui jumps on his fellow member laughing brightly 

“well aren’t you going to ask her out” 

“oof” 

ignoring the question, Minghao pushes him off 

“okay i’m going for a walk” 

he grabs his cap and mask, heading out 

“AND ASK HER OUT WHILE YOU’RE AT IT” 

Seungkwan’s voice is the last thing he hears before closing the door 

okay and actually that didn’t seem like a bad idea to him? 

oh besides the fact it was literally the middle of the night 

sitting down, in front of that oh so familiar road

he takes a chance

looking at your contact, he types 

‘are you awake’ 

he doesn’t have to wait long as you text back a minute later 

‘yeah’ 

‘you should be sleeping’ 

‘says the person who texted me’ 

he cracks a smile 

‘are you busy right now’ 

‘no what could i actually even be doing at this time of night’ 

‘meeting me at our bench?’ 

it scares you, 

how you know exactly that bench he’s talking about 

and how he refered to it has ‘our bench’ 

but you text him an ‘okay’ 

walking up to him, sitting yourself only an inch apart from him 

he still remains silent 

so you do too 

a minute goes by

that felt like an hour of you listening to the soft sound of him breathing 

he speaks, “so why were you awake?” 

how smooth of him 

swinging you legs back and forth, you answer airily

“college and all that you know” 

he hums at your generic answer 

“i couldn’t sleep, without asking you one thing” 

you turn to look at him

he’s staring directly at you 

“ask away” 

“will you go out with me?” 

you cheeks turn rosy as you let out a surprised sound

“i-i, yes” 

he laughs

it’s a soft, happy sound 

you immediately start to smile

the smile on his face is very contagious 

you punch his chest lightly, 

“and you had to ask this at two am?” 

“i actually think 2 am is a pretty good time” he jokes

you shove his leg playfully 

“yeah just as good as all the stupid dabs you do” 

he leans in, scrunching his nose at you

face just inches away from yours 

“you said you’d go out with me, meaning you’re going out with my dabs too” 

pushing him away, regrettably, you stand up crossing your arms 

“excuse you i don’t remember agreeing to that” 

he stands up too

and grabs your hands

gently pulling them down to your side, never letting go 

“we’re a package deal y/n” 

something about the way he says your name makes you melt 

then he grins mischievously 

with his hand still in yours, he brings your arm up 

and makes you dab 

you gape at him in disbelief, completely frozen like ice 

“there i’m satisfied” he nods smiling

pressing his lips to your cheek 

and suddenly you’re melting again 

i apologize for the mess that this is AALDKSLDSDFJ
