A Husband and His (Ex) Best Friend

Paring: Johnny x female reader, past Jaehyun x reader
Summary: With all the planning for your wedding coming up, everything feels like it is going right. Soon, you and Johnny will be happily married and all that is left to do is to wait. But what happens when Jaehyun shows up out of the blue?

Warnings: mentions of cheating, none others that I can think of but let me know

Word count (part two): 7.8k

This is not proofread so let me know about any errors!!

“Are you sure you got the address right?” you ask.

It is the day before the wedding, and Johnny disappeared, only sending a quick text saying something came up. An hour and a half later, he sent you a text telling you and Jaehyun to come meet him at an address.

Jaehyun nods his head. “Yeah.”

“Johhny?” you call, opening the door to the room. You feel around the wall for the light switch, jumping when you’re met with a chorus of “thank yous.”

You stare in shock at the smiling faces of Johnn’s family and friends standing under a ceiling of gold and blue balloons. You smile at the colors, instantly recognizing your favorite colors. Standing in front of them is Johnny.

“What is this?”

“Let me show you,” Johnny smiles, holding his hand out to you.

You take it, letting him guide you to his mom and dad.

Thanks to @pastelsicheng for reading the first quarter of this a billion years ago. Other than that quarter this is not proofread so let me know about any errors!!

“I like you and all, but I don’t know if I want you that close to me.”

“Where else am I supposed to sit if not next to you?”

“I don’t know. Not my problem.”

“Well, you better get used to me sitting close to you because I plan to stick around for a while.”

Johnny sighs, leaning back against the sofa. “Why do we have to do this again? Why can’t we just let them all fight for their seats?”

You laugh, turning your head dramatically to look at him. “Maybe because we decided this wedding was going to be ‘the fanciest wedding any of those suckers have ever been to.’”

Warnings: mentions of cheating, none others that I can think of but let me know

Summary: With 99% of your wedding planned and everything finally feeling right, all that is left is waiting for the best day of your life to come. But what happens when someone from your high school, someone you'd rather forget, shows up and reminds you about your shared past? A past that you can't be honest about with your husband-to-be.

Kiss Me Like We’ll Never Have Sex

Summary: When you use Johnny and Ten’s shared computer to send an email, you see that one of the boys is researching rings. You automatically assume it is Johnny’s, but when the truth comes out, you have to tell Ten some of the insecurities you hold in the relationship.

Pairing: Ten x female asexual reader, established relationship

Genre: Angst, fluff. 

Warnings: mentions of sex but not mentions of past sex (if that makes sense). Not a warning but we all deserve someone like Ten in our life 

Word count: 3.9k

I wrote this and meant to get it out for asexual awareness week but I only had the idea to make it for ace week the last two days. So I’m a few days late!! Thank you to @pastelsicheng for proofreading this for me <3

“Is someone planning on proposing soon?”

Ten feels his heart stop. How did you know? Did you find the ring? He thought he had hidden it well. How was he supposed to know you would look through his safe? How did you even know about the safe?

“I don’t - what do you mean?” he stutters, placing his arm around you. He inwardly facepalms at how nervous he sounds. If you didn’t suspect anything before, you’d sure be suspicious now.

“Johnny– is he proposing to his girlfriend soon?”

He breathes a sigh of relief. Thank god you had your oblivious moments.

“I don’t know. Why do you ask?”

“Well, the other day, while I was waiting for you to get back with the food, I remembered I had to email my professor and ask him about that abroad program. And I knew if I waited, I would forget. So I asked Johnny if I could use your guys’ computer, and when I opened it, I saw the search history. He was looking at engagement rings and how to pick the right one. Has he not mentioned anything to you about this? I thought best friends, especially ones that are roommates, told each other everything.”

Screw search history and screw Johnny’s once brilliant idea of only getting one computer to share. “Oh no, not that I’m aware of. Maybe he’s just waiting until he actually has the ring?”

I really appreciated getting this view into a sex repulsed ace reader because that is very different from my own experience as an ace. The most important takeaway is that no matter the level of interest in sex or none at all, it is possible to be loved for who you are. I do hope that reader character can make peace with their orientation though. That part was heartbreaking to read.

There is humor to lighten the story and the reader’s insistence they knew something about Johnny rather than Ten was some pretty relatable obliviousness.

Just as the couple in the story are different from each other with Ten presumed to be allosexual, I can say that kind of mixed relationship can be a happy and lasting one after twenty years with my husband. Despite the reader’s worries about divorce rates, I am wishing the couple in the story as much success.

Thank you so much for the reblog and the thoughtful comment. It really means the world to me and I can’t express how happy I am that you took time out of your day to leave such a response to my work. Thank you again

Anonymous asked:

Could you do first impressions of your moots please?

i'm only gonna do some ppl, not all bc i think a bunch of my moots are no longer active on here. i also cannot recall my first impression of many ppl lol, just that if i like u then i like u. if i dont then i dont follow back (so basically i liked all my moots from the start lmao)

@hyuckles-chuckles i was kinda intimidated at first bc she's a great writer (one of my favourites on here) and also a popular blog lol (back when i was a tiny blog) so when she followed me back i was like *@(&E*&^*@&*^%&^@%&@^@*!(!)&^%$#%$^&*

@daeguzen so kind and sweet!! one of the first writers i befriended on here i love them

@sunflowerhae first impression was that she is also very kind and a lovely person

@bumblebeenct ok i cant remember my first impression but i've always gotten vibes of the kind old grandma you meet at grocery stores who just starts a convo about food with u lol

@little-cold-hands , @merrycri-sis , @dreamflrt , @chicksung , @drydrops891 babies. all of them are babies.

@mxrcayong cant remember my first impression but she is now one of my bestest friends so i must have liked her a considerably large amount lol <33

@imoonstarstuff another very sweet and kind human

@ggulovebot so much positive energy from her that i loved her instantly lol

@kjmsupremacist very smart and big brain

@purpleheejin honestly i never thought she would be as insane as she is. i thought she was a nice kid on the internet but i was wrong lmao. shes my child tho so its ok <3

@neonun-au can't remember honestly but just that shes canadian. it's instinct for me to bond with any canadian on the internet lmao

@neo-shitty another big brain

@give-seconds i was kinda intimidated but thats bc im awkward af lmao

@leeyuhnotlaayah so nice and sweet!!! and also a very kind older sister

@yoonohing so supportive!!! and nice and kind blah blah (i feel like im saying the same thing for everyone ahsjsajkjksa)

@peachy-writings another big brain, and also a very nice person!!

ok yeah looking back on it im just saying the same thing for everyone but really my first impression of all my moots was that they all seem like great, kind ppl and/or produce great content. i only really follow blogs of writers i enjoy reading content from, or followers/readers that interact with my stuff often (and that i've ended up befriending eventually too). some moots just spam reblog things their interested in or memes and even tho idk anything i still enjoy looking at it haha so really i just follow based on whether i like u or not. i dont actively seek out blogs anymore (i havent in over a year) so really everyones just old moots or recent readers.

anyways lol so in conclusion we learned that i love all my moots!! <3 hope that answers ur ask lol

Horizon

"Just like the sea that embraces the sky, I will be waiting for your arrival at the horizon, only because I understand, hands holding on this tightly should never be let go of."

▪︎Summary: For two years after he left, you had believed you were totally over your friendship with Liu Yangyang. Nonetheless, he has decided to come back for the summer and, after your mom and his convince you to go on a trip together in compensation for the lost time, he only manages to make you start questioning your feelings all over again.

"Yangyang, there's seriously only one bed?"

"Dude, don't complain. I'm paying for all this."

▪︎Pairing: Yangyang x reader

▪︎Trope + genre: ex-best friends to lovers, road trip au, fluff

▪︎Word count: 8.3k

▪︎Warnings: mentions of food, profanity (please let me know if there's more.)

Playlist: Horizon (WayV), Ease (Troye Sivan), Sincerity is Scary (The 1975), Your Ocean (Hoppipolla), Up From Here (WayV), Coming Home (NCT U)

For @nct-writers "Coming Home" event! Also the biggest!!! thanks to @give-seconds for helping me with this last minute 🥺🧡 Please check out Olivia’s works!

Friday nights were always exciting, especially during summer. Not even working until late or family routine could ruin the fact that Fridays always had too much good energy. Actually, you couldn't complain about Fridays, even if they turned chaotic.

Running orders for 8 hours straight, attending rude customers who couldn't wait long for their food, and the people's screams when they were getting impatient couldn't bother you, not when you knew you would be free for the entire weekend after that. Plus, the pay was decent for someone who didn't have to worry about being on time for the rent or buying food for the whole month. 

Having stayed in your hometown after high school while most of your friends decided to study abroad was hard at first, but the comforts of living quietly with your parents and the good friends you made at your summer job would make you forget about it pretty quickly.

You were changing out of your McDonald's uniform when you heard your name being called from downstairs. Your mom's steps up the stairs and to your room could be sensed immediately after, so you didn't even bother screaming back at her to see what she wanted.

"Today is a special day!" She said excitedly, after you told her she was good to enter your room.

"Mom, we literally have dinner at Mrs. Liu’s every Friday."

"But Yangyang is joining us tonight! He came back from college to spend the summer here."

Back to you

Summary: You and Mark are all each other have, he’s easily the most important person to you. But something happens and you both are slowly separated, so you work your hardest to be accepted into a college in Korea so you can find your way back to a home with him again.

Warning: mention and a brief description of an anxiety attack

---Part 14

Today is the day; today is the day Mark is coming. The only thing that could make the day better would be if Donghyuck isn’t being so weird.

You first noticed it this morning when he gave you a half-smile on his way to the bathroom before disappearing for an hour. You chalked it up to him starting the morning off on the wrong foot, but when he announced he was going on a run, you knew something was wrong. In all your time knowing Donghyuck, you had never seen him go on a morning run.

You distracted yourself by asking Jimin and Daeun to teach you some Jeju dialect. But no matter how hard you tried, the nagging thought that he is avoiding you persists. You find yourself looking around the room, hoping he would both walk through the door while also hoping he wouldn’t. You hate confrontation, but you can't stay in his house if he is avoiding you. It feels too much like intruding.

“Y/n, why didn’t you tell me you know Nakamoto Yuta?” your roommate, Emika, asks as soon as you walk into the room.

“I’m fine. Now tell me why I am just finding out you know the one and only Yuta?”
