content: cute boy on the train! x f! reader
a/n: i’m writing this waiting for my class to start so here u go!! i hope everyone stay safe and warm this month! good luck on finals for those who are taking it 😁😁 anyways remember to look at the request guide here before you ask for one !!
as you leave your house, you look at your phone to check the time. noticing that the train you need to be on is going start boarding in 10 minutes— and you live 20 minutes away. there wasn’t much time to think or care about how you look right now.
sprinting, you begin to wonder why have you not taken your driving test yet. it would have definitely saved you some time if you were to drive than to run. you were practically struggling to breathe but that didn’t matter, you had a train to take.
as you run down the stairs, you look up to see the train boarding. you made it on time, but at what cost. finally hitting the pavement, you started sprinting — again. you see another tiny figure on the other side of the stairs ahead of you, also running as if their life depends on it.
just in time, both of you make it to the line that is boarding. you breathe hard through the mask, almost inhaling it. eyeing the person who was just out of breath as you were, you notice he seemed the same age and had eyes that looked like little boba balls.
somehow, he sensed your stare and looked up at you from his phone. underneath the mask he gave you a smile, accentuating his eyes, making sure you know that he is smiling at you and not just staring. you give him a smile back, crinkling your eyes.
it was hard for any of you to speak a word due to difficulty breathing, but you both read each other’s mind. he also saw you running to catch the train from where he was on the stairs. he noticed how soft your hair bounced whilst you were jumping down the steps.
as both of you walked side by side into the doors of the train, you became engulfed into the mass of people standing you. you stand on your tippie toes, trying to look for a pole to hold onto or even just a tiny bit of space to get away from the doors.
the boy who you saw running down the stairs grabbed your arm -- being careful to not take your hand incase you get startled -- and pulled you towards a pole. gripping onto your arm, he squished between people, looking back to make sure he did not lose you. somehow he underestimated how tall you were as he grabbed onto the higher bar above the seats and noticed that you can’t exactly reach.
freaking out, he begins to look around, not finding any available spot in the train. he turns to you, “i’m sorry. i swear i thought this bar was lower.” he stuttered.
catching your breath, “no. no -- it’s fine.” you looked around, trying your best to not pay attention to how he still had a firm grip on your arm. “i’ll just stand here.” you say, wobbling as the train started to move.
he held onto your arm as you swayed. “just grab onto my backpack.” he said, taking off his backpack and wearing it on his front. “here.”
he was hesitant on whether he should let you hold onto his backpack from the back or the front. he didn’t want you to look at the back of his head the whole time and plus if he let you hold onto his backpack from the front -- he’ll be able to catch you if you happen to fall.
you grabbed onto the straps of his backpack as the train rattled. you debated on if you should introduce yourself, after all he did just helped you from getting trampled in the sea of people.
“i’m jungwon by the way.”
“what’s your name?”
you both looked at each other, lightly chuckling at how both of you broke the ice.
“sorry, jungwon right?” you asked, looking at the small strands of hair that fell over his eyes.
he nodded. “yup!” he said popping the p. “what about you? what’s your name?”
“y/n!”
“well, y/n. i hope this won’t be the last time we meet.”
he smiled at you, and did some contortions with his face. you didn’t know exactly what he was trying to do. you tilted you head and laughed at him struggling to make a face..?
“i am trying to wink. is it working?” he asked, still making weird faces at you. you laughed, shaking your head. eventually giving up, he held down one of his eyes closed and “winked”.
cute. he was very cute.
