My birthday is coming up soon and I am not at all excited or happy but this short blurb is so cute and I love it so much <3

0.2k words, fluff, let's pretend it's your birthday!! :D
Yang Jungwon was usually good at sleeping through the night, especially when he had you tucked into his embrace. But his eyes fluttered open, a soft groan falling from his lips, as he saw the rusted night sky outside the bedroom window.Â
Careful to not bother youâwho slept so soundly on his chestâhe reached for his phone on the nightstand. With a quick double tap, the time 00:01 flashed in his light-sensitive eyes.Â
Relief befell him at the sight of the time; plenty of time left to snooze.Â
A small smile graced his face as he tightened his hold around you, ready to settle in for a hearty eight or so more hours. He could feel himself start to relax and match his heartbeat with yours⊠slower and slower⊠untilâ
The thought popped into his head like the flicking of a light switch.Â
"Honey," he crooned to you softly.Â
You stirred. "Mm?" Your hand gripped onto the fabric of his T-shirt, and Jungwon cooed at how cute you were. Perhaps he had just disturbed your peace, but it was all for good reason.Â
He pressed his lips to the crown of your head. "It's your birthday. Happy birthday, my love."
The words hadn't quite sunken into your half-sleep conscience, but you murmured a "thank you" to him anyway.Â
He chuckled, biting a smile back. Then he gently cupped his hand over the back of your head and closed his eyes. When he awoke later, he would happily say it to you again.

note : you could really see that i, someone who ults niki, really indulged in writing this >_<
â one of seven â masterlist
âmom, it isnât fair,â the girl scowled, her eyes ablaze in evident anger. âiâm not getting married to some guy iâve never met.â
the girlâs mother gave her a pointed look, saying her name as a small warning. âyouâll do what you have to for your kingdom. and, i think youâll end up liking him once you see who it is. speaking of which, heâll be here with his mother in a few minutes.â
rising from her seat, the girl leaned over the glossy wood table. âi am not getting married to a stranger.â
âwell lucky for you heâs not,â her mom said as she rose from her own seat, walking over to the room's elegant doors.
the queenâs daughter was about to ask what she meant when there was a loud knock on one of the doors. a guard opened it, popping his head in before saying, âyour majesty, the nishimuraâs are here.â
heart leaping in her chest, the girlâs breath caught as the family walked in.
âwelcome,â the queen greeted, smiling at the other monarch and her son. the other queen beamed as she kissed her cheek as a hello.
âriki?â the girl questioned aloud as her childhood friend entered the room, her head spinning with so many questions. she mainly wondered how on earth someone managed to change so much in only a year. âwhatâre you doing here?â
the blond prince gave her a boxy smile as he walked over and hugged her. âyou look so different.â
âme? have you seen yourself?â she said in disbelief, hugging niki back regardless of her confusion. âyou practically grew an entire foot and have a different hair color.â
as the pair pulled away from each other, the girl looked over at her mother. âmom, why are they here? donât we have the-man-that-i-really-donât-want-to-get-married-to coming over soon?â
âdo you really dislike me so much that you would rather marry a stranger over me?â niki interrupted with raised brows, stepping back in offense.
the girlâs jaw nearly dropped in realization. âyou? iâm in an arranged marriage with nishimura riki?!â
niki looked over at his friendâs, well, fiance's mother and said, âyou didnât tell her?â
the queen shook her head before offering a shrug. âi thought iâd let it be a surprise.â
âmom, seriously?! of all things to keep a secret it had to be this?â the girl drawled, still so unsure and shocked about the whole situation.
âoh stop, you should be glad itâs him and not some 'random man,â as you would say,â her mother said, leading the other queen to the table and taking their seats. âwhy donât you two go do something while we talk amongst ourselves here.â
âyeah, come on, letâs go down to the lake!â niki exclaimed as he grabbed the princessâ hand, not waiting for an answer before dragging her to the doors. âiâve been dying to go down there.â
âwha-â the girl couldnât even get a word out before they had already left the room, leaving both of their mothers to talk about god knows what.
niki began to slow as they rounded a corner, entering a long hallway with large windows. âi canât believe weâre supposed to get married. did you know that our families have had this planned since we were kids?â
âseriously? thatâs insane,â the girl sighed as the door to the outside came into view.
âthatâs what i said! they practically introduced us in hopes that weâd be friends just to wed us one day for, and i quote, âthe sake of our kingdoms.â itâs the stupidest thing iâve ever heard...not that marrying you is stupid or anything,â niki rambled, regretting his word choice.
as the pair pushed open the door and stepped into the warm sunlight, the girl said, âitâs fine, riki. i know what you meant. but, back onto the topic of how much youâve changed; you look so different! itâs like someone took your face and slapped it onto another body.â
niki began to tug off his coat as they started on a cobblestone path. âis that supposed to be a compliment orâŠ?â
âyes. itâs a good one, so appreciate it. your shoulders are broader, your hair looks really good styled like that, and the height suits you, although i am kinda mad iâm no longer taller than you,â she said, glancing between the prince that towered over her and the body of water that they were walking to.
âi could say the same about you,â niki said, flashing her a playful smile.
the girl looked up at him in question as they stepped off the paved trail and onto the soft ground that was near the water. âwhat the hell is that supposed to mean? i grew a foot and cut my hair?â
âwell, you grew, just not the way i did,â niki said, raising his eyebrows and chuckling.
âoh,â the girl whispered before his statement registered. she whacked him with her hand. âhey! fricking pervert.â
niki laughed as they stepped on the dock that led out to the middle of the small lake, the two teens slipping off their shoes before continuing on.
in an attempt to change the subject, niki pointed at the glistening water in front of them. âlook, a turtle is poking its head out!â
the girl rolled her eyes at him before looking at where he pointed. she took a step forward, bending slightly as she leaned over the edge of the dock, completely absorbed in looking for the turtle niki said he saw.
meanwhile, the playful prince moved closer and shoved her into the water, giggling at the yelp she let out.
the water was cool on the girlâs skin as she kicked off the sandy bottom and swam to the top, preparing to yell at niki for pushing her in.
breaking the surface and beginning to swim back towards the dock, she glowered at him as she pushed wet hair from her face. âwhat the hell was that for?! do you know how hard it is to swim with all these layers plus a corset?! i could have drowned!â
niki bent down at the edge of the dock, resting his hands on the wood as he said, âbut you didnât, did you?â
âgive me your hand and help me up,â she told him with a scowl, offering one of her hands while trying to stay afloat at the same time.
âhow do i know you wonât pull me in?â niki questioned with an untrusting expression.
âjust help me up, nishimura!â
niki muttered something under his breath before reaching out to her. he started to pull when she yanked back hard, dragging him into the water too.
âhey!â niki hollered as he resurfaced. he splashed some water at his friend. âi thought you werenât going to pull me in?!â
âyou deserved it. now please come over here because i need something to cling onto so i donât drown in this dress. your toes touch the ground while mine do not,â the girl demanded, already making her way over to niki.
groaning, the blond-haired boy let her cling to him, her dress beginning to float around the two of them.
âyou know, i just realized something,â the girl started, pushing some of niki's hair out of his eyes. âweâre going to have to kiss at our wedding.â
âwhat? absolutely not. iâll peck your cheek, but thatâs the closest weâre getting to actually kissing,â niki said with a disgusted look.
âoh, so kissing me is such a horrible idea?â the princess said with an arched brow.
âno, that is not what i said.â
âriki, you literally just said that,â the girl said with a straight face.
âugh, i didnât mean it like that and you know it,â niki said, looking at her as if she would suddenly understand.
âdo i?â
niki looked at her with a serious expression. âyes. you know i wouldnât mind kissing you.â
he regretted the words the moment they left his mouth. his eyes widened as he started to shake his head, a result of saying the wrong thing.
âi canât tell if youâre trying to confess your feelings or not,â the girl mused, a bright smile on her face as she watched nikiâs cheeks and ears turn red, avoiding eye contact with her. âand for someone whoâs such a flirt, you suck at it.â
opening his mouth to argue with her about the last part, niki was cut off when the girl grabbed his chin, forcing him to look at her.
she didnât say anything as she leaned it, connecting their mouths. his lips were soft against hers, and she sighed when he started to kiss back, his hands moving from her arms to her lower back. the taste of sweet salt from the water began to overwhelm her tongue.
niki pulled away first, his eyes slightly glazed as he looked at her.
âstill think kissing me is a bad idea?â

âshe seems to like you,â jake mused at the girl petting layla, a soft smile on his face as he shut the wooden door behind him.
âof course she likes me; iâm her favorite of us two,â she retorted, peeling her eyes from the dog in her lap to the prince that had walked into the bedroom.
snorting at his loverâs words, jake came up behind the plush couch that rested near a roaring fireplace, setting a hand on her shoulder and bending slightly to meet her eyes. âi wouldnât be so sure about that, love.â
opening her mouth to argue, she was cut off when jake called laylaâs name, smirking as the dog immediately jumped off the sofa and came running in his direction.
jake shrugged with a cheeky smile as he disappeared behind the couch to pet layla, leaving the girl to shift in her seat and drape herself over the back. âyou are quite annoying, i hope youâre aware of that.â
looking up, jake continued to grin as he stood and hopped over the back of the couch in one swift motion. âi am aware, thank you very much.â
the girl shook her head at him, but curled against his side after he had rid himself of his coat and boots. âyouâre extremely lucky i love you, or i wouldâve kicked you out of this castle and stolen layla from you.â
âoh, iâm sure you would. but i think layla would drive you mad without me here. youâd just end up coming back to me in the end,â jake said, his head tilted to the side as he looked into the blazing fire.
scoffing, the girl rested her head on his shoulder, moving against his frame. âi donât believe iâd come running back to you.â
âyouâve already done it once, what would stop you from doing it again?â
âok, that was one time-â
âstill happened though,â jake recalled as he met her eyes. she didnât say anything back, only glared playfully at her fiance.
âoh donât look at me like that, you know itâs true,â jake said as he wrapped an arm around her and pulled her closer. ânow get some rest, i told you not to stay up for me.â
âbut i wanted to see you,â his partner whispered as she shut her eyes, her cheek falling against his chest.
smiling, jake kissed her brow, whispering a soft âi knowâ before resting his head on her own, letting his thoughts wander as his eyes returned once again to the fire.
Standing in front of your throne, a fire burns inside me
without a doubt, if he wanted to park jay can afford first class on all the trips you go on. he even thought about buying a private jet but you shut that down telling him that it wasnât good for the environment and he agreed. even though he can afford it, heâd rather not go on first class on airplane rides with you. now, park jay is a husband who will absolutely without a doubt provide you all the finest things in life. from caviar included as a garnish during pizza nights âjust becauseâ to your own custom scented perfume from dior, jay is more than capable of providing the life of luxury most people can only dream of. but he has an issue with first class seats⊠theyâre always separated and lonely.
there were times when his exes wanted him solely for his money and if he couldnât give them the monetary experiences they wanted, he worth diminished in their eyes. on your first planned overseas trip together jay was hesitant in asking if it was ok to buy tickets for economic class. after all, he was really starting to fall for you and dare he even say l word you. you got rid of all his doubts when you told him,
âjay, i donât care what class cabin we ride in. our ears hurt the same when we lift up for take off. plus, iâd rather be next to you.â
he remembers his heart bursting in gratitude that you werenât like all the others.
was it then that he got the first inkling of knowing you were the one?
jay will gladly sacrifice a little bit of leg room if it allows for your presence right by his side and for him to be able to fall asleep on your shoulder. who gives a damn about first class seats when his favorite seat is the one next to you?

PERFUME
type: warm and classic
as mentioned here, jay likes to pick out your perfume of the day. he prefers scents such as vanilla and lavender because theyâre calming and not harsh to the nose. perfume is a gift jay doesnât buy too often because even if he can afford to buy you a new fragrance every day if he wanted to but he believes that scents should be appreciated and itâs not good to mix too many of them all at once.
JEWELRY ïżŒ
type: minimalistic and personalized
jay is a man of class and while people are aware of his wealth itâs never something that he actively tries to advertise like those with big flashy brand logos just screaming for attention. heâs a humble man and he doesnât see a need to prove to people that he has money. when it comes to gifting you jewelry, he doesnât want it to take attention away from your beauty so a more minimalistic style is fitting. he likes to personalize the jewelry he gives you. whether itâs including a âjâ charm, engraving his initials or a special date, or outright designing the piece himself. heâll usually gift you necklaces because you already have a wedding and engagement ring and bracelets tend to just get in the way whenever you need to do work.
SWEET TREATS (from other countries)
as a ceo, itâs a given that jay goes on business trips. also, one of his primary love languages is food! before his business trip ends, jay will usually go to a shop that sells candies and treats to find two to three things that neither of you have tried before. heâll bring it home so that you can try something new together and itâs a fun experience for you both.
EXTRAS:
jay is thinking of creating a perfume line for his business and naming it after you.
he likes to buy fluffy socks and says its for you but eventually he steals them to wear for himself around the house.
with any gift he gives you regardless of how big or small it is, he makes origami hearts and writes notes for you to read. totally not smth i do irl

âș heeseung as a boyfriend â»
we know heeseung is caring and kind, but i think he's bold too
you would immediately know he was into you because he made sure you were aware
he flirted in a subtle way to make you curious about what would be his next move
and heeseung's next move was call you out...
he wasn't hasty about your relationship, actually he was pretty patient about it
he waited for your response to his investments and he was so happy when you assured him you felt the same
so one day you woke up in a morning and he was calling you his girlfriend
he would do it all the time now that you were dating
specially in front of the members, he would say things like âoh i miss my girlfriend so muchâ âwait a minute, i'm talking to my girlfriendâ
just because he's so proud of being with you
and because he highly values ââusing words to show it
he loves it when you say sweet things to him
or if you write long texts to him, he would love that
words it's just so important to him
sometimes when you were distracted, he would appear from behind and whisper in your ear, how much he loves you or how much pretty you are for his eyes
overall heeseung would surprise you a lot with his acts of love
he's a cozy boy
he's your best company on your bad days
and despite his sentimentalism, he's also so funny. he would make you laugh for hours because he has so many stories to tell
he's open with you and expects you to be the same
even though he doesn't like to pressure you, he wants you to be just his
so he wants to know your secrets and your deep thoughts
because this way he feels close to you in a way anyone else is
and he likes this feeling
but it's not like heeseung is clingy
actually he gives you a lot of space (he's an introvert himself so...)
he just shows his love in many ways
he likes the touch, the words, the looks
and because of that, he is so sensual sometimes
he flirts with you even being already in a relationship
âdid it hurt?â âwhat?â âwhen you fell from heaven-â âNO WAY HEESEUNGâ âim sorry for this one my loveđâ
can you blame him?
you would never feel unloved by him
he has this protective side of him, even when you are in public he would keep you close to him, for example, hold your hand to cross the street so you don't run the risk of getting hit by car; these things only your grandma would do lol
his jealousy is very silent; he watches you a lot to know if you need him to get you out of these kinds of situations
but he trusts you to fire any guy who tries something
and because of that, he would get so disappointed if he sees you returning someone's flirtation. that wouldn't happen though, i bet you wouldn't do it (you know, he can get so cold if you hurt him in any way)
sometimes he gets caught up in the details, because the little things matter to him
he would praise you a lot and he'd be proud of every little thing you accomplished
when it comes to disagreements, heeseung is pretty rational
he's calm and doesn't get angry easily, he doesn't even likes to argue to be honest
he thinks is a waste of time fight over things so instead he tries to resolve things quickly
even being kinda stubborn with his ideas, he would still understand your side
i don't know but i just think that a relationship with hee would be so easy
he likes to keep the peace and comfort
his favorite time to do things is at night, so with him you would expect a lot of outings at dawn
he likes it when you take him out of his comfort zone and show him new things
and he would do it too, specially when he see you need to rest your mind
overall a very kind and considerate boyfriend who wants to makes you feel good and keep things stable
à§àš

a/n: so (hee)re we are again (!) my girlfriend asked me to write this hee as a boyfriend so i just did because i do anything for her yk đł

Fluff, royalty!au
4.8k words
Summary: The one where they may be crowned royalty, but to them, youâve royally owned their hearts
Heeseung:
âHow did you manage to slip out at such a time?â You glanced over at the proudly gleaming boy beside you, his eyes coated with a gloss under the moonâs light as he rolled up the hem of his pants higher up his leg.
âDo you underestimate me, love?â
âI could neverâ your smile grew as you watched him shake his head, the dark strands of hair falling above his eyes with a sweeping motion.
HeeSeung stood tall, bunching his sleeves towards his elbows; the prince outstretched his arm, holding his palm up for you to enclasp your fingers in between his own. As soon as he felt the soft touch of your skin against his, he smirked softly at you as he strode forward, you following close behind.
Perhaps it wasnât the best decision to sneak out of your kingdom at near midnight, especially concerning the fact it was your boyfriends parents kingdom. You knew youâd only get into slight trouble, HeeSeung had privileges that only he as the prince could; you were more worried about the obnoxiously cold river you were about to frolic around in with said prince. But alas, you knew this was the only time you could share alone without his guards trialing close behind him.
âHurry up, slow poke- the water wonât wait for us any longer!â HeeSeung tightened his grip on your hand and began to fasten his pace towards the secluded bank, both of your shoes held close to his chest with his free arm so as to not lose (yet another) pair in the woods during your nightly adventures.
The towels you had stuck between a tree and boulder were still there- a tad worn down from the weather changes- but good enough to dry your legs in order to hide the evidence of yours and Heeâs rule breaking shenanigans.
You gently released your hand from the males, opting to rush ahead in front of him and ignore his whiny complaints to go straight to your favorite spot- the small waterfall hidden behind the clouds of trees. Without thinking, you impatiently ran into the slow moving stream, water droplets already finding themselves sticking all the way up your leg from your quick motions.
âY/n you fool you were supposed to wait for me!â HeeSeung was whizzing straight towards you, desperately trying to match your somehow fast pace towards the waterfall a few feet in front of you. The male was exhausted already, panting as the water held his feet down each time he stepped making it difficult to catch up to you.
âHow in Godâs name are you so fast, woman?!â The princeâs voice croaked towards you, earning a rather cackly laugh back from you as you successfully reach the spot you had been aching to see again. His pants were soaked at the bottom from the harsh straining he had to do against the waters mass- his trainer would surely be disappointed in his lack of athletic ability in this moment.
The stone pressed into your back, the cold temps of the rock slipping through the thin fabric of your shirt as you leaned your back against the wall. Hardly having a care in the world at the unpleasant feeling, you opted to wiggle your fingers out under the drops of water that slipped over the waterfalls rocky edge- as soon as HeeSeung came into sight you flicked the droplets towards him, a few landing against the apples of his cheeks.
âYou are so lucky I find you adorable-â HeeSeung gripped onto your hips, tugging you close to his chest so you were face to face as you let out a breathy laugh, â-and thatâs Iâm rather out of breath right nowâ He blew a small gust of wind at your cheeks, sending one of the stray water drops that must have landed there, astray.
You leaned in, impossibly slow for his liking he had to admit, brushing the tip of your nose against his in a painfully soft manner. HeeSeung watched under his nearly closed eyes, his lips curved into an adoring smile. Looking up to meet his fine hold, you matched his smile with your own, merely casting your lips over his,
âThe water's freezingâ
HeeSeung snorted, rolling his eyes with a playful gleam as he finally closed the thin gap between the two of you.
Jay:
Your room was essentially a garden at this point. It started off with a few flower pots hanging on your balcony- and then a couple were so pretty you just had to bring them inside so the kingdom's beautiful sunrise casted warm amber petal shapes onto your ceiling.
Your boyfriend had made it his weekly mission to deliver a different type of wildflower to your quarters any chance he got when he was not training or doing errands for his father, the king. Usually it was slipped under your door with a sweet note attached squiggled with messy, rushed handwriting from said boy. You loved it nonetheless, even if they were a tad flat from being squeezed against the bottom of your door.
It was another evening of relaxing alone in your chambers, sketching mindless doodles onto your notepad as you sat criss cross in front of your balcony door; it provided the best light. You had no plans for the night, not when your friends were visiting other kingdoms and your boyfriend had some banquet the Royal family had to attend for foreign affairs. So of course, who were you to have expected three soft knocks on your door or a quick scratch against the floor from the thorns of a freshly plucked flower sliding on the hardwood.
Abruptly standing up quick as a dart from your spot, your pencils went flying under the sunsets shadows and rolled underneath your desk- you only gave it a narrow sighted glance before fleeing to the door that couldnât get closer any slower. You were determined to at least catch a glimpse of whomever your boyfriend must have sent to do his daily floral delivery since he himself were too busy talking people up and sipping champagne.
âJay?â You were taken back by the figure in front of you, your hand still hooked around the door handle, âshouldnât you be at the banquet?â
âTechnically, yes-â the boys cheeks were pink, a rather shy smile reaching his ears as he leaned into press a comforting kiss to the side of your head. He slipped past you and immediately went inside your room, âbut I fibbed and said I had caught a fever.â Jay snorted at his obvious white lie, finger quotes matching his proud energy.
You shook your head at Jayâs mischievous acts, though you couldnât say you werenât happy to see him. Jay had already taken his place onto your bed, leaning his head to the side to rest on his palm, his eyes wandering around your room with a satisfied gleam.
âIt seems you love your flowers, hm?â
âWell theyâre from you, of course I doâ Your lips turned upwards at his modest smile, finding his sudden shyness adorable. He shook his head at you, scoffing as he noticed the look you were giving him while you sunk down next to him in the blanket madness, âmust you look at me like that, woman?â
âWhatever could you mean?â
He unglued his eyes from the lamp, his vision with speckles of greens and blues from the bulbs brightness. Jay side eyed you, eyeing over your prideful smile, âas if you donât know-â he looked away before he could become too encaptured by your sweet gaze onto him, âdo you view me as a lovesick fool?â
âI look at you as if you are my world, loveâ
The prince huffed, chest puffing up as the air from his lungs escaped through his parted lips. Jay didnât bother to act tough around you, he without a care entangled your hand with his and pulled you into his side, one leg stuck under yours.
His head leaned onto yours, his senses being trapped by your intoxicating aroma, âwell you are mineâ
Jake:
âWill I see you tonight?â
Your body was hidden behind the horse, giving the male only a view of his most favorite pair of eyes he ever had seen, âmaybe, maybe not-â you glanced up at him, biting the inside of your cheek to suppress your smile at the prince, â-guess youâll have to wait and see, Simâ
Jake whined, mumbles of complaints leaving behind him as he walked up to the dark horse. He trailed his hands along itâs back, long strands of black hair entangling between the cracks of his fingers. Jake hummed to himself, as if contemplating what to do next.
You on the other hand were simply trying to keep your focus on caring for the animal-weaving your hands in itâs hair to untangle the knots, scratching itâs face to relieve itâs itches;, though the fact the handsome prince was currently standing opposite of you on the other side of the horse was making it awfully tough to do your job. Given he was also not so subtly sighing and glancing at you every few seconds, made it that much harder.
A strong sigh left your throat, causing Jake to smirk to himself at gaining your attention once again. You paused what you were doing, opting to just move around the end of the horse and stand in front of the male who was now scrambling to compose himself.
âWhatâs wrong, Jake?â You crossed your arms over your chest, the shirt you were wearing pulling down to reveal the dainty locket said male gave to you some time ago.
He parted his lips to talk, a single syllable breaking his silence until he caught a peek at the jewelry he had gifted you, âyou still wear it.â His ears felt warm, he was sure his cheeks looked as it had felt- on fire. Jake trailed his sight along the hem of your shirt and up to your eyes; a sort of prideful feeling overtook the young price, the sight of the girl he was in love with wearing something he had gifted her made him swell with a desire to call you his in front of the entire kingdom.
âActually, yes-â Jake ran his tongue over his drying lips, staring into your equally adoring matching eyes while his heel lifted up and down on the ground in anxiousness, âsomething is rather wrong, Y/nâ
âAnd what would that be, lover boy?â It was your turn to smirk, leaning your body closer to his in a quick step forward. Jake surely brought confidence out in you, but youâd never admit it.
âLover- y/n-â Jake groaned, running his hands down his face in weak frustration. He was beginning to lose patience in his own waiting game against time. He was ready to declare you his, to ride his familyâs horses you had always loved to take care of through the castleâs gardens and stay there until dusk came.
âIâd wish for you to go to the ball with me.â
âWith you?â
âWith me. And not as just my company, but mineâ Jake filled air into his cheeks, pouting his lips into an oh before releasing them with a small pop, âI mean- pleaseâ
You didnât mean to laugh- okay, cackle- but you couldnât help yourself. The respectful, charming prince you knew was finally ready to be with you and the joy you were feeling was incredible. Obviously he didnât know that was why you were laughing, given by the fact his eyes went wide and his mouth dropped open.
The boy started stuttering in nervousness, thinking he had made a mistake being so blunt and not respecting your own wishes. Jake squeezed your hands into his, apologizing profusely for making things awkward and taking up your time.
âJake- Iâd love toâ
Like a lost puppy he was, thatâs what he reminded you of. His beautiful brown eyes with a cast of excitement running over yours, the fast drumming of his fingers on the back of your hand- he really was adorable.
âOh thank you Jesus-â the male swooped in, cupping his hands over your cheeks and pressing his lips to yours. You exhaled through your nose, fluttering your eyes closed as you moved your lips with his.
A rather harsh whind rumbled through the barn, the sound coaxing you and Jake to slowly separate with a shared giggle. Ashort trail of saliva following the detachment, only making the two of you bite your lips in sheepishness. The horse behind you was now moving itâs head around and tapping itâs hooves onto the concrete, as if it were approving what had just happened.
Hereâs to hoping the rest of the kingdom does.
Sunghoon:
Sunghoonâs face was nearly mirrored to yours in the moment- both of you gawking at the monstrosity in front of you.
You turned your head to look at him, eyes narrowing in disbelief at the prince, âdid they not teach you to cook in your training?â
âWha- no?! I had chefs to cook for me!â Sunghoon was taken back, mimicking your expression and puffing his chest while pointing towards the âfoodâ on the counter, âand this is why, woman!â
You groaned at the male, shaking your head, âwe cannot serve this to your parentsâ.
Sunghoon teetered his head from side to side, as if he were deciding on what to do. He wasnât the best cook, he knew if he attempted the meal again it would only taste the same as it had when the two of you tried it previously. The male rubbed his temples, reaching his hand to curve over the edge of the counter so he could lean against it.
âLetâs just try again, we have time!â
Sunghoon halted his rocking movement, dropping his other hand to match it with his one against the counter, âlove, Iâd rather not give food poisoning to my parents; the kingdom would have my headâ. A breath of frustration was heard from him, the breeze causing his hair to rest above his eyes.
Chewing your lip in an anxious manner, you inhaled before moving around the counter to grab the failed dish, tossing it straight into the garbage can- container and all. You straightened your back, putting your attention onto your perplexed boyfriend who had yet to move from his spit, âwell? Letâs get to work shall weâ
You earned yourself a whine of complaints with that, though you only tuned him out and opted to instead drag his arm back over with you to the other side of the kitchen where your ingredients laid haphazardly.
Sunghoon, clearly not impressed, dramatically leaned into your side; if it werenât for your quick reflexes he surely would have fallen face first into the flour, though maybe you should have let him. You snorted at that, using your shoulder to push him back up, âcmon you big baby, we have stuff to doâ
âYes, like each other! Letâs dismiss this mess please, Iâm tired of itâ Sunghoon wiggled his fingers towards you, attaching them to the sides of your waist so he could move you to stand in front of him with your back pressed against the ledge, âPleaseeee, Y/n, weâre never gonna be able to do this dish correctlyâ
âNot with that attitude we wonât-â your index finger pressed to his chest, gently shoving him back, ânow letâs workâ You encouraged him with a small smile, kissing his pouty lips a few times with quick pecks.
The male was hardly satisfied, but heâd rather not piss you off today- so being the good listener he likes to believe he is, sunghoon nodded along with what you were saying and began to read off the directions, just as you did earlier.
Things were going smooth, sunghoon was continuing his part in cooking by simultaneously reading as well as mixing, as you added the ingredients.
âOkay, now it says to add in a tablespoon of basil into the dry ingredientsâ sunghoon read off the paper, watching you diligently as he passed you the herb. The boy wasnât quite expecting the sudden whack on his shoulder, yelping in shock at the contact.
âWhat was that for?!â Sunghoon glared at you now, his eyebrows furrowing together.
âI know why we fucked up the meal earlier-â you pressed the bottle back into Sunghoonâs grasp, allowing him to read the words on the front of the packaging. As soon as his knowing look popped up and a drawn out âOâ fell past his lips, you began again, â-you had the wrong ingredient out this entire time, dummy.. this is dillâ
It was silent for a few seconds, not for long as it was bound that once you and Sunghoon made eye contact you had filled the large kitchen with snorts and loud cries of laughter.
Sunoo:
Being in a relationship with the prince from the kingdom opposite of yours didnât seem like such a big deal until reality sets in that you were supposed to be rivals. It wasnât like your kingdoms were at war- Nono. Your parents just did not get along, and instead of fueling it into hatred, it was turned into annual winter tournaments.
What exactly does that mean for you and sunoo? You were expected to face head to head each winter solstice, along with your kingdoms best suited contestants, and to titles for your kingdom. And of course being it that you happened to be the designated princess and prince of your homes, it was even more weight on your shoulders to not let your parents down.
You couldnât care less.
And that was obvious considering you were just about knee deep in snow, trudging through the forest to meet up with your hidden boyfriend. Could you get into serious trouble? More than likely. But theyâd have to catch you first, and so far in the months you had been dating they were clueless.
Precautions were set every time you and sunoo chose to meet up. You were to meet at the border between your kingdoms, only travel through the woods, and leave when guards were least expecting it. Unfortunately that meant staying up until midnight and falling asleep at dawn, but to each of you, it was well worth it.
Even now, as snow crept into your shoes and melted into your socks and your nose burnt from the cold, youâd face the cold for the cute prince anyday.
You were nearly frozen solid at this point, the journey never ending it had seemed- or maybe that was just the frostbite getting to your head. But alas, you kept moving; stepping over mountains of snow and dodging fallinâ tree branches, you were bound to get there at some point-
âWAHâ
Your arm was suddenly yanked to the side, your body nearly losing itâs balance as you fall into a familiar hold at the sound of a sharp wail on your side. Your head quickly turned up in shock, eyelashes reaching your eyebrows, âsunoo??â
The boy peered down at you, his infamous infectious smile showcasing his playfulness. He wrapped his arms securely around you, pulling you up to stand flat onto your feet against him, âhi baby!â
âI thought you were a guard, assholeâ despite your name calling, the laugh at the end of your words and the similar expression to your boyfriends completely dismissed your feigned annoyance at the male.
âNo, but I could have been-â sunoo pointed his finger at you, tapping your nose in the process, â-you were just about past the border if I hadnât pulled you aside, missy!â
Squinting your eyes, you glanced around the trees to avoid his amused gaze. You were clearly tired from the constant preparations for the tournament, plus the added lack of sleep from your late night meetups with Sunoo. Guess you were so exhausted you hadnât realized you were about to enter Sunooâs kingdom.
âExhaustions caught up to you, too, huh?â
You nodded your head, scrunching your nose at the feeling of snow landing on your skin while snuggling closer to Sunooâs warmth- you were standing in the woods in the midst of winterâs freezing temps, after all.
Light touches were felt under your eyes, sunoo slowly rubbing his gloveless hands onto your skin to brush away the melted flurries in such a soft manner youâd barely felt it if it hadnât been your senses were so keen for the man.
âWanna head to the cabin?â Sunoo rubbed his hands up and down your arms, spreading friction between the two of you to warm you up.
Taking his hand into yours, you kissed the back of his hand and guided him with you through the snow to your small cabin at the side of the forest. Sunoo figured that was a yes, though he wasnât trustful of his voice to double check considering he was trembling at the moment- and not from the cold.
Jungwon:
âI cannot concentrate if you continue to look at me like thatâ
You shrugged, resting your elbow on the table top to place your chin into your palm, âwhat can I say, I find you more interesting than this homeworkâ
Jungwon snorted at that, his shaggy dark hair falling above his eyes as he shook his head at your cheesy words. The male continued to write away, focusing on his chemistry homework from his previous lesson that day rather than play into your distractions.
âMy father would never allow us to study together again if he catches us goofing off, pay attention Y/nâ Jungwon glanced up at you through his strands of hair, trying not to give into his desire to scooch his stool even just a tad closer to yours.
âIâm his favorite subject in his kingdom, he wouldnât mind if his prince happened to take a quick breakâ you noted this as if it was a fact, you were determined to spend time with your boyfriend other than doing homework from your private lessons with him.
Jungwon knew you were correct, at least about you being the kings favorite; though not so much about being able to goof off when you both knew this was your designated class time. The last time the two of you decided to skip studying and head across the kingdom to your favorite bakery, one of his fathers guards happened to catch you and ratted you both out.
You were both banned from the bakery for a week after that- it was horrendous to go without pastryâs.
âNope, not happening, baby.â Jungwonâs voice was sturdy, unlike his will at the moment.
You were the rebellious one in the relationship, and youâd willingly own up to the title if it meant you could skip this rather boring assignment and go swimming in Jungwonâs pool in the gardens.
A sweet smile replaced your frown, not that Jungwon could see; your chair screeched across the floor boards, the table bumping slightly from your feet hitting the legs as you practically sat aligned with Jungwonâs chair.
âWhatâre you doing, y/nâ
âNothing, I just wanted to sit closer to you- we were practically continents apartâ reaching across the table to your previous spot, you slid your papers back to you and pretended to get to work.
Jungwon, knowing you far too well, was incredibly suspicious of you in the moment- now he was the one having a hard time concentrating. He was too busy thinking about what you had planned, his eyes sneakily darting over to you every few seconds as if you were to make a move.
âJungwon I can feel you staring at me, loveâ
The boy choked at your sudden confession, using his free fist to hit his chest a few times. Ignoring the way you called him out, he continued to write down his answers onto his paper- really he was just drawing random squiggles because he absolutely could not concentrate.
As a few minutes passed of the two of you sitting in silence, Jungwon still couldnât focus. He knew you had something up your sleeve, but he wasnât able to pinpoint what considering you were still reading through the science book and writing down your answers after every page.
A frustrated groan was the first thing to break the silence, followed by Jungwonâs chair sliding out beneath him as he stood up with his hand extended out in front of him.
In your head you were celebrating- your plan was succeeding all with due time.
âWhatâs wrong, Won?â You bit back a smirk, nibbling on the end of your pencil instead to keep your âgame faceâ on as you observe Jungwonâs obviously annoyed expression.
Jungwon rolled his eyes, displeased at your clear victory yet again, âcmon, weâre taking a break-â, the prince curled his fingers around yours at the contact of your palm in his, â-but we need to hurry before the guards get out of their meetingâ
Your notebooks and books were left in the dust now as Jungwon led you through the long corridors of the castle, the smiles you both wore as large resembling the Cheshire Cat.
âHey- you two are supposed to be studying!â
Niki:
Was Niki supposed to currently be at some neighboring kingdom's princessâ birthday right now? Yes. But to be fair, would they really notice heâs missing? No. His parents only âforcedâ him to attend to get his kingdom vanity points. Heâd much rather annoy his girlfriend who just so happens to be his familyâs Gardner, then sit and watch some girl eat her birthday cake.
âNiki would you stop being a painâ
âI would, but itâs unfortunately what Iâm best at!â Nikiâs eyes crinkled into crescents as he flashed you his signature grin, his body still laying across the bench that held all your new packs of flower seeds.
You wanted to complain, but it was rather funny seeing his lanky self sprawled across a much smaller object- even if he was smushing your seeds, âif you donât get up how am I supposed to do my job?â
Niki scoffed, waving his hand at you before positioning them as a pillow behind his head so he could properly look at you, âIâll pay you either way, y/n-â he giggled to himself at his following line, â-partner privileges!â
âOh dear Godâ
The snort that sounded from you was hard to contain, amusing Niki further considering you were playing into his shenanigans. The young prince scooted up just enough for you steal a few packets that had been underneath his legs, his hands catching the air as you pulled your wrists away swiftly before he could catch them.
âYou brat-â niki pouted, playfully turning your head as if to ignore you, â-are your flowers more important than I?â
Your silence gave him his âanswerâ, the boy peeling an eye open to gawk at you for not replying, âhey! I skipped a party for you!â
Laughing at his feigned sadness, you reached over to ruffle his hair- only for you to land in his lap at the sudden capture of your arms into his grip. You let out a huff at the impact, trying to scramble back up in many failed attempts as the prince blatantly laughed in your face watching you struggle.
âNiki I have to get back to work-â
âTough!â
Your whines of complaints were meeting deaf ears, Niki only wrapping his arms tighter around you to keep you still. The males eyes gleamed, clearly he was enjoying himself annoying you rather than attending to his business- lucky he was cute, you had to think.
The spring breeze flew past you like the bees surrounding your flowers, wisping your hair around your face and onto Nikiâs with every gust of wind. The look on his face as strands of hair slapped onto his skin was entertaining in itself, not to mention the fact it was wrapped around his lips as if he wore a beard.
Your cheeks puffed as you held in a laugh, your hands lifting from your lap to remove the hair from Niki and back over your shoulder; oh how you wish you had your phone in that moment.
âI did you a favor, may I get up now?â
The boy shook his head, leaning you closer to him so he could look properly into your eyes without the sunlight nearly blinding him, âIâd like to sit here longer, my future queenâ
Your face felt as red as the roses you had yet been able to plant that afternoon, your eyes wanting to look anywhere but the smirking man in front of you; yet anytime you attempted to, he only lifted his finger to your jaw, guiding your vision back to his sunlit face.
âFine. I suppose we can sit here a moment longerâ you leaned into his touch now, resting your head into the crook of his neck so he could rub his hand down your spine.
âPerfectâ
