what's up danger
Description
It begins typically enough - girl meets boy, boy is a ridiculously handsome, angst-ridden, morally grey, powerful gang member with too many enemies and a million ghosts, girl knows it's wrong, but she can't stay away from him, boy will do anything to keep her safe, they fall into love, truly, madly, deeply, but it's dangerous. There will be complications. It will end in tragedy.
It begins typically enough, the downfall of her best friend. But, Shin Sunhee can only stand by and watch as her best friend succumbs to the love of a dangerous man, one trope at a time, because she is only the best friend, the companion meant to watch from afar. Still, the least she can do is make sure her best friend's life doesn't end in tragedy. The least she can do is try and stop this gang, this stupid boy, from ruining her best friend's life.

Seulgi blinks up at them from under Sunhee’s embrace when they remain rooted to their spots, unmoving, watchful, and she whispers, voice hoarse, unsteady, "You guys promised me you'd leave us alone after I helped him. We forget you, you forget us."
It's quiet, very very quiet, and Sunhee's stomach churns. She thinks these men look like they have a history of breaking promises.
The shortest of the men tilts his head, just a bit, before he finally speaks, "You're right. A promise is a promise."
There is emptiness there, in the hollowness of his tone. She doesn't trust it. Not one bit.
(She wonders how many promises live on in the emptiness of his honey voice, how many sweet, sickly, empty promises.)
Yet, Seulgi nods, relief settling over her features as she slumps in Sunhee's arms.
Foreword
Hello! I'm back with a new fic because obviously I hate finishing old fics and like starting new ones TT And this time it's another mafia fic! It's a little different this time - the premise is to focus more on the best friend of the Girl Who Falls in Love With a Mafia Member who is hyperaware how bad the situation is and tries to stop it, because it can only end badly, right? The alternative title for this (I have it saved as in my folders) is Mafia Au but Subverted so!
Hopefully I can keep a schedule for this and to mix it up, this will have not only Exo members, but a few other groups (namely Astro) because if no one else wants to feed Aroha-L Nation then I'll do it myself!!!!!!!!! Also, I'm trying to spice it up for myself lol.
title: what's up danger
pairings: seulgi/kai, baekhyun/oc (shin sunhee), possible love triangle between baek and another person and oc? I shall update you on that because I want to give a Real love triangle a shot rather than an ot3
genre: angst, fluff, mafia au, tragic ending? maybe depends on my mood, this will be short, but longer than a oneshot
warnings: not going to be connected at all to my other mafia fics, warnings for usual mafia fic stuff like blood, violence, drug use, drinking, etc, i found the first chapter in my drafts from looooooong ago so the beginning might be strangely written, since it was written a few years ago
title track: title from the song what's up danger - blackway ft black caviar
+ youth, daughter
+ born to die, lana del rey
