The burn of chlorine filled Seungcheol’s senses as the world around him vanished. He opened his eyes in a new world, neon blue and devoid of air, and his first thought was Jeonghan. Could he swim? How deep was the pool? Where was he?

 

He reached out and found fabric and as he grabbed at it and pulled Jeonghan close to him he found his feet could reach the bottom. His toes scrambled for grip on the smooth tiles and his next thought was how glad he was he’d left his Magnums near the front door.

 

As he pulled Jeonghan into the safety of his arms their heads broke the surface of the water. The relief of air filled Seungcheol’s nose and mouth and he gasped for breath. “Are you okay?” He asked the man in his arms and Jeonghan nodded. Seungcheol stared at Jeonghan’s face, his parted lips shining in the dim light, his big eyes staring at him under a mop of wet hair. “I’m sorry Cheollie.... I guess I just fell....” 

 

Seungcheol couldn’t take his eyes off Jeonghan’s perfect pink lips as he spoke and the rush of adrenaline combined with the alcohol in his system made thoughts rush through his brain. He felt confused, excited and suddenly overwhelmed as he felt it in his stomach. That spark, fire, chemistry. Whatever it was called didn’t matter. Jeonghan’s words filled his ears as he remembered what he’d asked him earlier that day.

 

“What’s it like to want someone so bad that you just can’t wait to get your hands all over them?”

 

With Jeonghan’s thin frame held gently in his strong arms Seungcheol finally understood. “I know now... what it feels like....” he said softly as he stared into Jeonghan’s eyes. The music and voices faded into the background as they stood in the chest deep water by the edge of the pool. Every single instinct Seungcheol had told him to lean in and take Jeonghan’s lips

Chapter 62: Interesting how that whole "relationship exposure" seemed to have blown over a bit after just declining to comment on it.

Haha, Jeonghan being an accidental matchmaker. Guess Seungkwan is gonna love yoga! Seokmin can't hold a note (in this universe) so he got into sports, that's a funny thought. Very cute drabble. ^^

Chapter 61: A sweet end with a sweet new kitten. Jeongcheol's love is lovely. ♡ Good to see Jisoo has new priorities and a life of his own beyond Jeonghan now, too. I really enjoyed reading.

Chapter 60: All's well that ends well. They're all safe and secure and surrounded by good people who they adore and appreciate.

Chapter 59: As reckless as it may have been, if Seungcheol had stayed out, it may not have ended so easily. Commanding someone unhinged to surrender is a long-shot. He may have hurt Hannie and/or himself instead, knowing he was cornered. Cheol sneaking in bypassed that chance, thankfully, so nothing worse could happen.

Now, aside from the media, they can get some peace. Being publicly outed and their relationship exposed seems like nothing they can't handle now.

Chapter 58: Damn, he almost escaped. Being tased a second time and falling down the stairs though, . He could be seriously hurt. Definitely need some outside intervention now. Hopefully they take Hansol by surprise though, so he can't hold Jeonghan as a hostage.

Chapter 57: Oh, he's that kind of crazy. The type where you almost feel sorry for him. He really lives in a delusional world where he'll get his way after all this and live happily ever after with Seungkwan somehow. When in reality, best case scenario is he'll be kept in a mental institution somewhere.

Jeonghan certainly isn't the damsel in distress, he's smart and crafty too. Even while slightly injured. Maybe he will get himself out of this situation before anyone else can save him.

Chapter 56: Yeah, that definitely wasn't the time and place for a Jisoo/Mingyu moment. They were so damn room-illiterate it's shocking.

But what matters is that Seungcheol is pissed off and determined, so there's no doubting he will do what he said and bring Hannie home.

Chapter 55: The only thing worse than a psycho stalker creep that makes threats is a clever psycho stalker creep who follows through on threats. It's a relief if there wasn't actually a bomb and he really meant it when he said he wouldn't hurt Jeonghan. Though tasing someone certainly seems to go against that. But he really went to the lengths of basically domestic terrorism and kidnapping to support his idol. Ffs.

Chapter 54: So it's the (relative) calm before the storm. As ed up as it is to have your personal life exposed like that, not completely on your own terms, guess there's something in the idea that genuine fans will stick around and he'd lose the toxic ones. Ironically, maybe gain a bit more freedom than other idols. Being unashamed of being in a relationship, and with a man at that. (Thankfully/sadly, because it's fiction, we can believe it will be more accepted.)

Just. Hopefully once that creep sees he has no power, he will give up. Not escalate to something more dangerous.

Chapter 53: "Junhui, who was really feeling himself dressed in Jeonghan's Gucci," hahaha, Junnie making the best of the situation.

Speaking of, looks like Mingyu and Jisoo know how to do that too! Didn't take them long lol. Just a little wine for bravery maybe.
