we were so beautiful

Description

we were so beautiful. myungsoo/sungjong. rated g. angsty, sort of. 

inspired by this and this. also this moment in showtime when sungjong hugged myungsoo from behind during one of their rehearsal, and a verse from Beast's You lyrics. title was taken loosely from myungsoo's caption for his latest update on IG. l o l.

note: pssst, it's been 1 year and 10 months since i last wrote a myungjong. so please cut me some slack, y/y? :) also. a shoutout to deliberatemistake! how've you been?

 

Foreword

Really, he should've known better - he ought to, after spending the last few years playing this game Myungsoo now isn't sure he actually ever knows how to.

 

Sungjong has been more than fair to warn him right from the start, making it clear to Myungsoo about what to expect, and infatuated as he might be, Myungsoo knew what he was signing up for. But if there's one thing he always prides himself on, it's his perseverance, and Myungsoo was confident then he could eventually turn things around as long as he kept on trying.

 

He isn't all that confident now, though, his perseverance crumbling beneath the weight of pain Sungjong has managed to inflict over the years, the same kind of pain he has gotten used to but still wounds him each time as if it's the first time.

 

The pain of finding yourself believing something to be real when it's not.

Chapter 1: Aww. Even though it was a bit angsty, I loved every bit of it. It feels so real especially when you based it from the pictures, although I hope that that's not the case in real life because I'm really happy with the myungjong moments that are happening lately.
Thank you for writing this and I look forward to reading more of myungjong from you! :D

Chapter 1: Okay, first of all goosebumps. Especially when you described the moments just before those pictures were taken - I literally got goosebumps! And it feels so real. That's the one thing about your fics, they feel so real. You haven't lost your touch at all, still making me feel absurd amount of things through your words. It was short and (bitter)sweet. And can i just say, Sunggyu is the sweetest! And Sungjong might come off as a douche but the ending, that ending sort of makes up for it.

So I was subscribed to you as an author and I got a notif today about new author story. I saw it was your and before even reading the forward or anything I hit the subscribe button because how can i not?! I was ( still am) genuinely excited about your return to writing MyungJong and I can't wait! The only reason I'm not reading this now because I'm working and I have to read in a hurry but I can't do that to your story. I have tor read every word, relish every paragraph. So I will return.
So mad at you for returning so late (just kidding). How are you? I'm glad that at least you haven't given up MyungJong entirely!
