prompt: âI know Iâm not that easy, but babe Iâm on my knees.â
extra: angst & fluff
note: god iâve been writing so much fwb recently whatâs wrong with me. anyways hereâs fwb mark lmfao
âyou have no reason to be this fucking possessive!â
your voice rings through your apartment as you glare at your friend, the anger in your words emanating outwards with a force previously unknown to you. in the two years youâve had your thing with mark, you donât think youâve ever been this intensely angry with him - if you close your eyes, youâll see red. itâs insane to you that youâre even having this discussion now, after being fuckbuddies for so long, but you suppose it had to happen sometime.
âhe was trying to woo you for, like, three fucking hours, and you just sat there and entertained him!â mark yells back, voice gruffer than youâve ever heard it. his rage just makes you roll your eyes back into your head, cracking your knuckles as you try to gain control of yourself. once youâve steeled youâre nerves, you plant your feet, getting your next sentence out through gritted teeth.
âthe appropriate response to seeing something you didnât like wouldâve been to come over and ask if we could talk privately, not to come over and start sucking on my damn face right in front of the poor guy,â you seethe, your face scrunched up in exasperation as you attempt to keep your volume level in the face of markâs own anger. he says nothing, and you take it as a sign to continue. âwhat the hell did you prove by doing that? what message were you trying to send? what was the goddamn thought process that went through your mind-â
âi had to show him that youâre mine!â mark thunders, booming voice easily overcoming yours as he interrupts you. itâs not necessary - the confession itself shocks you into silence as you process what heâs said.
markâs called you plenty of things before. heâs never, not once, referred to you as his.
you watch as he exhales heavily, his shoulders slumping as he looks away from you. suddenly, mark looks almost forlorn - nothing like the man whoâd been in front of you moments before. itâs evident that heâs said something thatâd been a source of heartache, and you watch as he rests a shaking palm flat against his chest as if to prove to himself that heâs still alive.
you say nothing, and he draws his own conclusions.
âi- i should go,â mark says, voice barely above a whisper now. âi- yeah. i should go. iâm sorry for... for everything.â
heâs looking down, not capable of looking at you now that you know what is the worst possible thing for you to know: heâs caught feelings for you. mark canât bear to look you in the eyes, not when heâs just killed your friendship with a single conviction-filled sentence. his heart feels like itâs made out of lead, but thatâs because he can only assume that youâll never talk to him again.
mark isnât sure heâll be able to live with that.
heâs busy wallowing in his own doubts and assumptions when he walks past you on his way to the door, only to be surprised when you grab a hold of his arm. without meaning to, mark looks up, his gaze meeting your own sincere one.
âyou need to stop making everything so hard,â you breathe out, pulling him so heâs standing right in front of you. mark can barely think as you rest your hands against his chest and look him eye to eye. âlike, i know iâm not that easy myself, but god, babe, iâm on my knees. really. donât make life difficult for us.â
âbabe?â mark murmurs, brow furrowing. âus?â he asks again, tone slightly hopeful. a small smile tugs at the corners of your lips as you nod.
âpet names and terms of endearment are fair game,â you explain, throwing your arms over his shoulders so youâre chest to chest with mark. his arms wrap around your waist on habit, and you can see the realization dawn on him as his shy smile starts to grow. thereâs only fondness in his eyes as the sadness ebbs away into nothing, and you can only imagine he sees the same thing happening to you. you relax into markâs hold before you finally continue speaking again.
âyou know, now that iâm yours and youâre mine.â

hi can i request, mark lee / 15 / w stoner au, pls :D
prompt: âI can't wait 'til you come over, I'm not sober, so you know how it's 'boutâ toâ go.â
extra: stoner
note: iâve never smoked in my life so there will be hella inaccuracies i apologize beforehand,, ty/creds to @neocitybynight and @txthots for some ideas
youâre not heartbroken, and you sure are hell arenât dead. what you are right now, though, is just a little, tiny, minuscule bit horny. youâd arrived just a bit too late to do anything other than catch a small amount of secondhand smoke, so maybe youâre on your way to getting high, but other than that, your brain is very, very focused on the love between your thighs.
itâs too bad that your boyfriend - your beautiful, wonderful, adorable, and stupidly hot boyfriend - is currently rambling about the stars. one of his hands rests on top of your bare thigh - your shorts have bunched up - while the other is gesturing wildly. markâs fingers drum absentmindedly against your skin and you squirm under his touch, but he doesnât notice.
when heâd called you and told you to get in the car a half hour prior, he hadnât smoked yet. you can hear his words repeating in your mind now - âcanât wait âtil you come over, baby. wonât be sober, so you know how itâll go.â. thereâd been a telltale smirk in his tone, and youâd gotten in your car fully expecting to get laid upon arriving at markâs place.
now that youâre actually here? it couldnât be farther from expectations. you canât say youâre mad, though, not when mark seems so in awe of the universe.
â - and stars just... exist... isnât that wack, bro? theyâre just out there doing, like, star shit. isnât it fucking nuts? and i think they have something to do with astrology... i donât even know what that is but i know iâm a lion -â
âleo, baby, youâre a leo.â you murmur, cutting him off to correct him. mark turns his head in time to see you gently place your hand on top of his, and from the look in his eyes itâs as if heâs just realized that his handâs been on your thigh this whole time.
âdamn...â he mutters, hooded gaze dropping to where his palm is flat against your leg. for a moment, through the hyper-clarity you feel like you have, you think that maybe, just maybe, heâll trace up your thigh, over your hips, and under your waistband like you want him to. because of this, this hope, you lean forward, ready for whatever comes out of markâs mouth next.
â... your skin feels super weird under my hand. under my skin? woah... our skin is touching.â
okay, well, maybe you arenât ready for whatever he says. before you can object, mark is rubbing his hand along your thigh over and over and over again, stare starstruck as he marvels at the feeling. itâs cute - heâs cute - but you canât help but tense your thighs underneath his touch. he feels your muscles twinge and looks up at you again; you arenât sure whether heâs attracted or alarmed.
mark says nothing, though, just stares at you as if heâs discovering you for the first time while his hand continues its trek. for your part, youâre finally starting to feel it too: thereâs a certain warmth around you, and you want it to engulf you. maybe youâre okay with feeling mark rub the skin of your thigh - itâs just as weird as he says it is once you really put your mind to it - and talking about the stars. maybe itâs what youâre meant to do, what anyone is meant to do. maybe you donât have free will and everything is done to you, rather than you doing everything. maybe you arenât horny, youâre just-
âyouâre horny?â
markâs voice pierces through your thoughts, and you realize youâve been speaking out loud for the last half minute or so. you flush, turning to meet his gaze. no longer are his eyes wide open - his pupils are blown wide, yes, but his gaze has darkened into being hooded. his hand stops its movements, fingers slipping under the bottom of your shorts and staying there.
he trains his waiting stare on you until you finally, albeit slowly - very slowly - nod yes. one corner of his mouth lifts up, and you really, really feel it this time.
the warmth engulfs you at the same time mark crushes his lips against yours, fingers finally sliding up to where you desperately need them.

july 5th, 2020.
itâs the first race of his youâve ever seen.
youâve memorized the course, a consequence of hours spent staring at the map until itâs been imprinted beneath your eyelids. the route ends where it starts, and the rest of the roads will be closed off - youâre sure renjun, one of the officiants, has bribed the cityâs construction sector to ensure this - so no bystanders are hurt, but you donât particularly care about unlucky pedestrians or drivers that could be potential collateral damage. still, itâs on the outskirts of the city, so there wasnât as much risk as there couldâve been to start with.
it sounds bad when you think of it, but you canât bring yourself to be repentant of what you worry about and what you donât. after all, your focus is exactly where it should be:
jeno lee.
your boyfriend hasnât been shy in letting you know about his pastimes: heâd told you about his penchant for speeding through the city in his toyota camry after the fifth date, had murmured it into the skin of your bare shoulder as his fingers skimmed your bare waist. it was the first night youâd stayed over, waking up to the sunrise, coffee, and round two. his apartment was - is - tiny compared to yours, a studio apartment just big enough to live in versus your penthouse suite uptown. still, from that night on, his place feels more like home than yours ever will.
you hadnât really talked about how worried you are for him then, instead allowing him to give and take to and from you as he pleased. you still havenât talked about how worried you are for him, although instead of being in his bed at 2 am youâre on the sidelines of one of his street races, 2 way radio in one hand and phone open to a police scanner app in the other.
itâs insane, you think to yourself, that youâre an active participant in a highly illegal race. if any of your friends - who all believe jeno to be a terrible influence, in his tattooed glory and always shrouded in cigarette smoke - could see you now, they might have simultaneous aneurysms. theyâre all far too enveloped in the socialite life youâre trying desperately to shed.
none of that matters to you now, though - what matters is the cars you can see emerging from a turn far, far off in the distance. thereâs only two - a bright red civic and a sleek black camry, the latter carrying your boyfriend and his best friend jaemin - and theyâre neck and neck, tire to tire. itâs a short race, a quick couple of loops around the track thatâs been laid out for the night. thereâs prize money, yes, but itâs only a couple hundred bucks - if jeno wins, heâll put his half towards paying his rent.
you watch with bated breath as the cars get closer and closer, your eyes trained on their front bumpers. renjun makes his way to the center of the starting line, his faith in the two drivers astounding you as he waits patiently for them to near him. mark jogs across to set up a slow motion camera on the other side, and, on your right, jisung sets one up as well. renjun stands still, gaze piercing the night as he stares straight ahead. before anyone can process the end of the race, both cars race past. your hair flies up from the wind generated by the carsâ speeds, and you hear the distinct sounds of two sets of brakes squealing as both cars finally, finally come to a rest.
you hold your breath as mark and jisung analyze their films. donghyuck pushes open the driversâ door of the civic, with chenle walking out of the passengersâ side. jaemin leaves the camry first, and jeno follows, running his hands through his hair as he gets out. youâre too focused on mark and jisung to notice your boyfriend until his cologne engulfs you, just moments before he pulls you into his side by your waist.
âhow was your first race?â he whispers, lips right by your ear as he leans towards you. you relax against his hold as you mumble a âgoodâ, and he presses his lips to your hairline as the two of you wait. yes, winning the race is, at most, rent money and a mild sense of pride, but jenoâs arms are tense around you.
he loves cars, and he loves racing them for enjoyment, yes, but you know that heâd rather be racing them to win and only to win. his dreams are lofty, but if he can win another streetrace, whoâs to say he canât keep winning his way up until heâs good enough for the big leagues? heâs beaten every racer in the city except for donghyuck, and whoever wins this race will hold the unofficial title of truly being the best of the best.
tonight has been jenoâs toughest race to date. he wants to live off the adrenaline just a little longer... that, and rent is due next week.
after eons, mark raises his head.
âiâve got jeno,â he calls out, and jenoâs arms pull even tighter around you as he awaits the final verdict.
âso do i.â jisung responds, only just loudly enough to be heard by everyone. without meaning to, you let out a laugh of pure, unadulterated joy, and jeno spins you around to hug you properly. you hear donghyuck and chenle congratulate him, feel jeno get handed $100 by renjun while the other $100 goes to jaemin. youâre basking in your pride, face against jenoâs jacket.
itâs the first victory of his that you witness, but it certainly isnât the last.
â â â
september 12th, 2024.
âyou know,â you start, words coming out in a satiated sigh as you shift to lay on your side. the silk sheets of the hotel suiteâs bed tangle between your legs as you begin to trace random patterns on jenoâs skin.
âway back when, everyone - all of my âfriendsâ - told me that i was crazy for picking up a boy who rode around in a camry and, quote unquote, looked like trouble. i wonder if theyâre watching you now.â you glance up to meet his gaze, and the corner of his eyes crinkle as he lets out a quiet chuckle.
âdonât know if i ever stopped looking like trouble, to be honest, even if i donât drive my camry anymore. havenât changed much in these past four years.â jenoâs voice is husky at this time of night, just a little gravelly and soft enough to where you strain a little to listen. he never fails to make your heart do somersaults, even after five years of knowing him.
âyou literally just won the italian grand prix, and you say you havenât changed much?â your tone is still soft, though not without an edge of incredulity. jeno traces a finger down your naked side, moving so heâs pillowing his head with his forearm, all just to see you properly.
âiâm still the same guy, just with money and a better job. my morals are the same, fundamentals are the same - my love for you, what defines me, itâs still the same. just because iâve got a couple of pro racing trophies under my belt -â
â- eight -â you interrupt, brow furrowed at jeno short-selling himself. he sees this, raising his hand to tease against your scalp.
â- under my belt,â he continues. âit doesnât mean anything truly important has changed.â
â... i guess.â you finally acquiesce, and jeno fondly tugs you close so that youâre lying on top of him. the new position has something stirring in his chest, and he brings his hand up to your face, cupping your jaw before pulling you gently towards him.
âwanna know what iâm putting my prize money towards?â he asks, words sounding harder than they should. you squirm slightly, still just a little fucked out from earlier, but jenoâs always had a way of making you want more.
âwhat?â you ask, shifting so youâre straddling him. he lets you plant your hands on his chest before he responds, the beginning of a smirk evident against his plush lips.
âour honeymoon,â he whispers, leaning up so his lips are brushing yours. âwanna put all that cash towards a room with enough surfaces for me to bend you over to last us a whole week.â
jeno closes the space between the two of you with a bruising kiss, and you find that heâs right - nothing really has changed in the past four years. he still fits you perfectly, body made for your own.
prompt: âI can't wait 'til you come over, I'm not sober, so you know how it's 'boutâ toâ go.â
this oneâs a little short, iâm sorryyyy itâs just how i imagined the scenario in my head i guess
renjunnie is calling...
heâs very, very drunk when you pick up. heâs so damn drunk, actually, that it isnât even him thatâs calling you - itâs his best friend donghyuck using his phone.Â
âhe kept climbing onto m-Â âjun, sit down, hold on - he keeps trying to fight me if i donât call you so, i mean... yeah, here you go. hi, by the way, sorry (name).â donghyuck starts, and you can hear scrambling noises and mild squabbling in the background. you assume you can attribute that to renjun, and the thought of him wanting to talk to you so badly that heâs actively trying to hear you through the phone endears you.Â
âyour boyfriendâs just a handful -â donghyuck starts again, only to be interrupted by a noise reminiscent of a drawn out, annoying whine. ârenjun! god, hereâs your fucking phone since you want it so damn bad.âÂ
more scrambling noises ensue, and youâre left in the lurch on the other side, bowl of ramen in one hand and your phone in the other, for a few moments as the boys talk amongst themselves. when the line finally becomes properly active again, itâs renjun who speaks.Â
âbaby,â he starts, drawing out the last syllable of the word for as long as humanly possible. you hide your snicker by pulling the phone away from your ear, but it seems like he isnât capable of perceiving it anyways - heâs pretty out of it. the fact that heâs thinking of you even when completely intoxicated has your heart flipping in your chest, but you do your best to draw your focus back to your drunk boyfriend.Â
âwhatâs up, junie?â you ask once heâs done, and he giggles into the phone.Â
âi canât wait âtil - wait âtil you come over, baby,â renjunâs voice drops, and you realize that heâs trying to sound sexy right now. in any other circumstance and if he was using any other tone, youâd be halfway to his apartment after hearing those words fall from his lips. now, though? you have to keep yourself from grinning at how mildly adorable he sounds.Â
âiâm not sober, so you know how- how itâs about to go.â he continues, voice softening towards the end of his sentence. thereâs some kind of cacophony going on behind him, and as renjun squawks indignantly you realize itâs the sound of his friends laughing at him.Â
âjunie,â you start, stopping your quiet laughter just in time to morph your tone to a softer, more caring one. âbaby, do you need me to come take care of you?âÂ
âyes!â your boyfriend responds, giving you a far more excited response than youâd expected. you only realize how he mustâve taken your innocent question once he starts speaking again, and by then itâs too late.
âyou should- you should wear that black set i bought for you last week, you know, with the lace? iâll kick the guys out and everything. i miss you baby- ah, shit, i feel like iâm gonna pass out.â renjun gets ramble-y just as the laughter behind him rises to a roar, and thereâs another few seconds of rabble in the background until someone else comes to the phone.Â
âitâs me, jeno,â the voice crackles through, and before you can voice your concern over renjunâs âpassing outâ comment, jeno keeps speaking. âyour idiot of a boyfriend is fine, but donghyuck and jaemin are trying to get him to lie down and start drinking water. weâll watch over him for the night, donât worry too hard, yeah?â
âthanks, jen,â you respond, sighing in relief as you do. jeno gives you a cursory but kind âno problemâ before hanging up, leaving you to exhale through your lips and drop your hand from your ear, placing your phone on top of the arm of your couch. after a moment, you pick it up again, opening it to set an alarm for 8 in the morning.Â
after all, renjunâs going to have one hell of a hangover, and you figure that you should get to his apartment early to clean up the things that arenât clean and attend to things that havenât been attended to. itâs what he does when youâre hungover - you owe him the reciprocation.Â
who knows, maybe youâll even wear the black lace set he seems to adore so much.Â
prompt: âNot negative, just different... you wanna have lunch, and I wanna have a picnic. You wanna go up, I wanna just fly all night.â
extra: exes
present.
you see him first.
jenoâs across the room, red solo cup in one hand while heâs using the other to prop himself up against the wall thatâs 1) in front of him and 2) against the back of the girl heâs currently chatting up. his hair is back to black, and heâs in jeans and a red tank that have your mouth drying out. heâs unreal under the dimmed lights of the frat house - it shouldnât be possible for anyone to be so beautiful. you hate the way your heart twinges upon seeing him, willing it to practically stop beating. youâd rather that than even thinking about wishing for him back, after all.
it hadnât always been like this.
i.
âyou know, you might just be the love of my life.â
you whirl around in time to see the most handsome man youâve ever met rake the fingers of one hand through his bleached blond hair, a teasing but gentle grin adorning his features. his other hand is outstretched, his unlocked phone safe in his large palm.
âthatâs definitely the most tame - but also weirdest - pickup line i have ever heard.â youâre quick to respond, eyeing the glowing screen. the name of the man escapes you, though something in the back of your mind reminds you that heâs an architectural engineering major. youâve seen him around campus, and you know heâs a member of the frat whose house youâre currently tipsy in. he watches, grin morphing into a smirk, as you take his phone and text yourself from it.
âseems to have worked though,â he responds, voice a pleasing timbre amongst the din of the partygoers. âiâm jeno.â
he leans in close to tell you his name, murmuring it against the shell of your ear in a faux attempt to have you hear him over the noise. you both know damn well he couldâve just talked a little louder and you wouldâve been fine. still, you know that he isnât just playing with you: he wouldnât have asked for your number otherwise. jenoâs hot, though, and regardless of whether he has romantic intentions or purely sexual ones, youâre itching to get some action in tonight...
it takes you less than a second to go âfuck itâ, leaning so your lips are by his ears, too.
âyou have a room here, jeno?â you ask, and the way he wraps an arm around your waist tells you everything you need to know.
ii.
âweâve really been together for a whole year,â your boyfriend marvels out loud, hand warmly enveloping your own. you say nothing, only squeezing his hand as you look out through the window of the ferris wheel carriage. jeno lifts your entertwined hands up, pressing a soft kiss against the back of yours.
when you get to the top of the ferris wheel, you turn to him, soft smile playing on your lips. he mirrors your expression before raising his hand - the one that isnât holding your own - to cup your face with the utmost care, as if youâre the most precious thing heâs ever come into contact with.
âyou know,â you whisper, leaning so his forehead is resting against yours. âyou might just be the love of my life.â
jeno chuckles before closing the gap, tilting your chin up so your mouth can meet his plush lips. once you separate, he winds an arm around you, pulling you into his side.â
âyou might just be mine, too.â
iii.
âso this is how we end,â you whisper, voice hoarse and laden with tears. it takes everything in jeno to keep him from reaching out and pulling you into his chest, from wiping your tears away and apologizing until all your heartache makes its rightful home in his chest. âover... over what, jeno? why are you doing this? i still donât get it, i- i thought we were fine. is it me?â
his breathing feels like it stops as he realizes youâre blaming you, and he hastens to mutter our a rapid string of ânoâs and âof course notâs. if he thought youâd listen, heâd be begging you to look him in the eyes right now. instead, youâre forlorn on his bed, staring at the bedsheets while picking at a loose thread. your quiet sniffles will haunt jeno for the rest of his nights.
he still loves you, he thinks he always will: itâs just that he puts you ahead of himself and vice versa, and thatâs the kind of relationship that destroys itself in the end. you are so many things he isnât, and he is so many things you arenât. opposites cannot attract for forever. your fights are more and more frequent, and they pain him more every time. jeno trains his gaze on the carpet underneath him.
âit isnât you - it isnât either of us. our relationship is not negative, but weâre just so different... you wanna have lunch, and i wanna have a picnic. you wanna go up, and i wanna just fly all night. weâre on two ends of the same poem, and i- i donât think weâll ever be able to meet.â
he looks up from the ground once heâs done with his short spiel only to find that youâre packing up your things already. jeno shatters in that moment, knowing that the moment you step outside, his world will cave in. for now, for your sake, he keeps it in.
âyou know...â you start, pausing just before you pull open the door. a cursory glance over jenoâs face, looking directly and deeply into his eyes for a moment, tells you that he does, in fact, know. you heave a heavy, heavy sigh, the kind that can barely be made to leave your body, and turn back around. you donât finish your thought, and you donât look back. once the lock clicks shut behind you, jeno all but collapses onto his bed, his heart pounding in his chest.
âyou really are the love of my life.â jeno rasps out, doing his best to control his breathing. something fundamental in him cracks then, and he finds himself doubling over, trying to get ahold of himself. as the tears come and come and come, he finds himself repeating it like a mantra.
âyou really are the love of my life.â
present.
jeno makes eye contact with you very suddenly, accidentally looking too far to the left while laughing at something the girl has said. the recognition is instant, and the instant regret and sadness that fill his eyes are inescapable. he suddenly seems ashamed at having been seen with someone else, as if he shouldnât be with anyone but you.
before he can do anything as drastic as actually come over and approach you, you shoot him a quick, tight-lipped smile, your grip tightening around your own beer bottle as you do. jeno has no time to even process this gesture before youâre spinning on your heels, rushing to get out, to get away from him. he makes no move to follow you - why would he?
heâd been right, you realize, right as you become aware of the tears streaming down your face. jeno had been right, you really were too different. he seems to be getting along fine without you in ways that you arenât, and it hurts more than youâd care to admit. heâd been right on another count, though, judging by how guilty he seemed when he saw you, and itâs one that dawns on you as you stare, wracked with sobs, up at the night sky, bottle dangling from your fingertips.

Congrats on 4k! For the prompt Mark + 2 + mafia au (I dunno thatâs what I thought of when I read the lyrics) Hope you have fun with making these!
prompt: âWalk in with that devilish smile... thatâs one thing I havenât seen in a while. How have you been since I called you mine?â
extra: mafia
note: mentions of killing, etc.
âthatâs one thing i havenât seen in a while.â
your eyes are narrowed, heavily lidded in anger as you clutch the matte black phone receiver tighter. mark, acute as ever, gaze honed in on how your nails press backwards into your skin, can only smirk. he darts his eyes from your fingers up to your face, quirking an eyebrow very, very slightly as if trying to goad you into asking what he means.
you donât have time for bullshit. your shift at the university bookstore starts in an hour, and youâve been late too many times this past month, what with the trial and court proceedings and depositions and anything and everything possible.
your life barely feels like your own anymore. the man in front of you across the heavy duty transparent barrier in a prison jumpsuit thatâs a little too big on him is a testament to all of this.
âknow you wonât ask, so iâll just tell you what the one thing i havenât seen in a while is,â mark is oddly lax as he speaks to you, going so far as to lean as far back as he can without straining the receiverâs cord. the infuriating smirk remains, set perfectly in place. âitâs your devilish little smile. tell me, howâve you been since i called you mine?â
âi was never yours,â you spit out harshly, mentally berating yourself as the words spill out. your therapist has told you to think more before you speak, to calm yourself and count to ten in your mind and a million other things you know are meant to help you. thereâs no doubt that youâve forgoed actually abiding by any of them. once youâve spoken, you donât stop. it isnât surprising; after all, this is your first time visiting mark since his arrest. âi was never yours. you were mine, but i was never yours.â
ânow what the hell makes you say that?â this time itâs mark who seems affronted, though you arenât sure why. he even moves so heâs leaning forward, looking you directly in the eyes with the same brown-eyed lost-boy-next-door stare heâd trapped you with.
mark lee had convinced you that he was just another college student, albeit an easily flustered one with a penchant for pulling you into his lap and pressing sloppy kisses along your neck when you were alone together, with a love for hearing you read books outloud to him in the early hours of the day, with a smile for you and only you that you had access to whenever and wherever you wanted it.
your breathing is slightly raggedy once youâre done with your harried spiel, but itâs no matter. itâs annoying, and a terrible habit, but you find yourself more focused on the way markâs face gradually drops the more you keep speaking. part of you - a very large part of you - wishes you could touch him, tell him itâll be alright. the rest of you is aware that heâs a dangerous criminal and not even close to the adoring boyfriend mark lee you know and love.
âif iâd have told you that iâve looked men directly in the eyes before taking their final breaths, that iâve had more attempts on my life than either of us would be able to count, that being mark lee, the uni student, is easier than being minhyung, the mafia boss, would you have stayed? would you have loved me the way you do?â
âdid,â you respond rapidly, eyes boring into markâs. âthe way i did.â
âthe way you do,â mark insists, prominent adamâs apple bobbing as he swallows. âif i was out of your head, you wouldnât have visited at all. i know you - if youâd only come for closure you wouldnât seen me and then left immediately. i know you, and you know me, no matter how much you donât believe me.â
âi watched you shoot a man on the same couch youâd fucked me hours earlier. how could i know you?â your inflection is strong, but your voice is weak. heâs right - of course he is - but it pains you to know so. how twisted must you be, to love him after everything?
âevery part of me that i showed to you was real. i may not have given you the full truth, but it was to protect you as much as it was to protect myself. i gave you the truths i had to give, and if they werenât enough, never let me know. i love you, (name). i love you.â
markâs demeanor has changed greatly from when your interaction had first begun: heâs gone from cool and collected to pained and panicked, his voice steady but strained. he reaches a hand up, placing his palm to the glass. itâs as if he wants you to say it back, you realize, and you almost want to say it back. just as you open your mouth, though, a long, monotonous dial tone rings in your ear.
you watch, all urge to love and maybe even forgive mark draining out of you as he gets pulled up by his arms, dragged out of the room. thereâs nothing else for you here, but you stay seated, unmoving, staring at the now-empty space in front of you.
âmaâam, your visiting period is over.â a voice pulls you out of your thoughts, and you look up to see a guard standing impatiently behind you. you simply nod in response, turning back to the barrier.
as you get out of your seat, you reach out, resting your palm against the glass for just a moment.

note: this is short but sweet!! ily
heâs laying on his back, using his forearm as a pillow as he stares up at the inky night sky. the thin blanket underneath the two of you doesnât do anything to keep the harsh hardness of the rooftop from bothering you, but you do your best to pay it no heed as you shift, turning onto your side so you can see jeno better.
âdidnât know you were interested in the stars,â you say, small smile adorning your face as you trace his side profile with your gaze. ânever brought it up.â
âbecause iâm not, not really,â jeno replies easily, turning his head so heâs looking you in the eyes. âiâm into the peace and quiet, though. and the night sky is pretty to look at.â
âjust the night sky?â you quip, watching as his eyes fold into crescent moons as he smiles kindly at you.
âi mean... sunsets are nice. sunrises, too,â jeno says, reaching the hand he isnât propping himself up on out to graze his fingers against your cheek. you feel as if thereâs something heâs leaving unsaid for now, but you donât chase after it - heâll tell you whenever heâs ready. âbut the world is just more still at night.â this last part comes out as a whisper, falling from his tongue as smooth as honey as you lean into his touch.
âyouâre right,â you say, circling back to what heâd said before. âthe night sky is pretty.â
âalmost as pretty as you.â jeno riffs off of you as if heâs practiced at it, though, you suppose, after one whole year together, he is. his earnest, teasing sweetness makes you cringe even as your face burns slightly from the compliment, and you find yourself rolling onto your back so you donât have to keep staring into your boyfriendâs roving eyes.
he notices. he chuckles at your haste.
âsap.â you grunt out, only causing jeno to finally laugh outright. he throws his arm over you, pulling you into him so heâs half on top of you, his warmth engulfing you.
âmaybe so,â he murmurs, hand idly stroking up and down your side as his lips brush against your ear. âbut that doesnât change the fact that iâm right. the moon and the stars are nothing without you, and definitely nothing compared to you.â
âanniversaries make you mushy,â you respond after a long minute, trying your best not to show that heâs making your heart contract with his saccharine words. ânoted.â
jeno snickers into your neck, and you squirm in his hold at the way his hair brushes your skin. he only holds you tighter, pressing a kiss right underneath your ear.
âi love you,â he says, and you swear the stars twinkle brighter in that moment. you finally move onto your side once more, shifting until youâre sure he can see your face in its entirety. jeno lets his hand rest against your hip as you raise your own to cup his jaw.
âi love you, too.â you tell him, and you finally close the distance between his lips and your own.
the universe may be lightyears across, but your universe is right in front of you.

part 2 to this drabble requested by @chocojaehyun
âdo you remember how we met?â
jaeminâs hand is running idly over the bare skin of your side, leaving goosebumps in its wake. his question is so soft that you have to strain to hear it, but once you process what heâs asking you canât help but smile softly. the hand you have resting on his chest comes to life, tracing tiny indiscernible shapes across his collarbone and pectorals.
âyou mean... last year after you railed me in the bathroom of that one banquet hall to the point where i physically couldnât walk, so you had to escort me out while telling people iâd had some sort of allergic reaction to shellfish? yes, i do remember.â your reply is straightforward, but youâre not miffed in the slightest. jaeminâs chuckle rumbles in his chest, and he pulls you closer still so your bare body is on top of his own.
you sit up straight, resting on top of his hips while your legs are on either side of his torso, your soft thighs pressing into his toned body. jaemin runs his hands up your legs to grab your waist, and act that is soft in nature but meant to keep you grounded against him in a way you can never resist.
âyou told me you could only give me one single moment that night, that i could never have you again,â Jaemin hums thoughtfully, one hand leaving your waist to trail up your skin until it lies gently at the base of your throat. âwhat changed?â
âiâd thought that i already had the entire universe in my palm,â you respond, breath hitching slightly as jaemin establishes a barely-there grip on your throat. the rest of your sentence is rasped out - he always has this effect on you. âdidnât realize that the moon and the stars are nothing without you until you were inside me.â
jaeminâs dark gaze fixates on your own wide-blown pupils for a suffocating moment before a corner of his mouth quirks up into a devilish smirk. before you can process anything, youâve been flipped over so your head is against a pillow and your body sinks into the soft sheets of jaeminâs bedspread. his grip on your throat loosens only so he can rest his thumb against your lower lip, watching, pleased, as your mouth falls open on instinct.
âlet me remind you of all the cosmos, then,â he murmurs, leaning down so you can feel his body heat wrap around you, smothering you with fire in the way youâll never have enough of. jaemin nips at the junction of your neck and jaw, drawing forth a moan as he gives you the first of many, many markings.
