night out
how your boyfriend shows his love for you when he’s under the influence
contains: alcohol consumption, gn!reader, sweet lovely tooth rottingly sweet seungcheol
whenever seungcheol wanted to go drinking you almost always accompanied him.
he was a clingy and affectionate drunk, so even if you weren’t with him you’d still feel his affection from the 20 calls and 50 text messages that he’d send you.
today, he needed to celebrate an achievement with a few friends and, of course, you accompanied them.
the night was winding down and you could tell seungcheol was way out of his tipsy range and much further into his nearly incapacitated range.
he had his head on your shoulder while you had an arm around his shoulder, slowly rubbing his arm while you talked to his friends across the table.
you noticed him fumbling for his phone and you looked down at him quizzically.
“what’re you doing, cheol?” you asked gently, while he pulled up his text messages.
“i need to text my partner…” he mumbled, “need to tell them how much i love them…” he said quietly, tapping on his keyboard and sending nearly incoherent texts to you.
you just played along with it for the time being, knowing that sooner or later he’d realize you weren’t responding and that you’re right there.
[cheolie] 2:02am: kiss yu so much
2:02am: babyyyyyy i lovd u
2:02am: you aee rhe lifht of my life
2:03am: why ru not repsodning to me?????
2:04am: are uu mad at me :((((
your phone consistently buzzed with notifications and you couldn’t help but smile at the texts that came from your boyfriend.
“guys… i think y/n is mad at me,” seungcheol finally said, slowly but surely sitting up and bringing his head off your shoulder.
your friends from across the table just looked between the two of you and laughed.
“what makes you think that?” you asked curiously, putting a hand on his thigh.
seungcheol just gasped at your contact on him and quickly pushed himself the furthest he could get away from you. “what are you doing! i have a partner! only they get to touch me!” he nearly shouted, pressing himself against the wall as if he could materialize into it.
once again, you all laughed at his antics. he, on the other hand, seemed utterly disgusted at the thought of someone who wasn’t you being near him. he squeezed his eyes shut and refused to look at you.
“cheol, baby, look at me,” you cooed gently, scooting over to him and trying to get him to face you.
“no! only my partner gets to call me that! can’t look at anyone else, don’t want to.” he said firmly, turning his chin up like an upset toddler.
when you realized this was going to take a little longer than usual you looked over at your friends with a smile and motioned that they could leave. “don’t worry we’ll pay,” you reminded them, knowing that seungcheol always wanted to be the one to pay anyways.
after they left it was just you and seungcheol at the table, him still refusing to look at you.
you decided to use your only option and pulled out your phone to text him.
[you] 2:17am: i’m not mad baby
2:17am: can you please look at the person sitting next to you?
when his phone buzzed with your notification he gasped and quickly pulled it out to check, a frown on his face when he read your last message.
[cheolie] 2:17am: but it’s not u :(
2:17am: only wanna look at you
his texts made your heart warm, but you still had a mission to accomplish.
[you] 2:17am: just look baby i promise it’ll be okay
at your coaxing message he finally put his phone down and slowly looked over at you. the gears were shifting in his head as he took in your face, slowly recognizing you.
“y/n!” he exclaimed, finally leaving his place against the wall and scooting right up against you, throwing his arms around your waist and nuzzling into your neck. “i didn’t know you were here! someone was trying to touch me and i told them no! i only have eyes for you.” he said sweetly, looking up at you with big glassy eyes and a sweet pout, waiting for your praise.
you just laughed at his antics and brought a hand to his hair to smooth it down. “i’m glad, baby, are you ready to go home?” you asked, noticing how his eyes were already shutting as he found his comfy spot in the crook of your neck.
“‘m ready, wanna go to sleep,” he said with a yawn, an iron grip around your waist as his voice got slower, signifying that he was close to sleep.
“let’s go then,” you said, tapping his shoulder as to make him get up, but he wouldn’t budge, “seungcheol, you big baby, you’re going to have to walk yourself,” you teased, poking his side and trying to shove him a bit so he sat upright.
“don’t wanna,” he said stubbornly, leaning even further into you as you tried to get him up.
you sighed and shook your head, “we can’t stay here all night, don’t you want to sleep in our nice bed?” you tried to coax again, you both knew he would be much comfier at home.
“fine.” he said with a huff, knowing you got him there.
he slowly unwrapped himself from you and stood up, swaying a bit as he tried to steady himself. you, on the other hand, came up next to him and grabbed one of his arms to sling over your shoulder, hoping you could provide some type of balance to his walking.
as you exited the restaurant you quickly paid at the front with seungcheol’s card and made your way to the car, dumping him in the front seat and fastening his seatbelt for him.
before you could close the door he held up a hand and motioned for you to come closer to him. you decided to entertain him and moved closer. when you were only inches from his face he decided it was enough and looked at you with love struck eyes, surveying every inch of your face.
“can’t believe you’re mine, you’re so perfect,” he mumbled, pecking your lips quickly with a little giggle.
this made your cheeks heat up just a little bit and you shook your head. “you’re sappy when you’re drunk, huh?” you teased, leaning down and giving him a quick kiss on the cheek.
“it’s because i loooove you,” he said honestly, anyone would be able to tell that from how he was looking at you, as if you hung the moon and the stars.
you held up your finger to have him give you a moment and you shut his door, quickly rounding the car and slipping into the drivers seat. once you had fastened your seatbelt and started the car you looked back over at him.
“i love you too,” you whispered, but he was already fast asleep.
the next morning seungcheol woke up with a pounding headache and threw the covers over his head to hide from the rays of light seeping through your curtains.
“morning, sunshine,” you teased, rolling over and making yourself comfortable next to him since you’d been awake for some time.
“morning, baby, my head hurts like hell…” he groaned, voice thick with sleep.
you pointed to the nightstand nearest to him that had a glass of water and pain relievers on it.
“you’re a godsend,” he said honestly, quickly downing the pills and water before settling back into bed next to you.
“fun night?” you asked with a little laugh, not quite sure how much he remembered of anything.
“mhm…” he trailed off, playing with your hair absentmindedly, “i didn’t do anything embarrassing, right?” he asked, knowing that when he couldn’t remember the night he usually did something unusual.
“well, you forgot who i was and wouldn’t even look at me until i texted you and said it was okay.” you explained with a laugh.
seungcheol looked at you with wide eyes and buried his head into a pillow.
“i’m never drinking again.”
