Of Coffee Addicts And Tea

Description

College AU with a lot of angsty brief mentions of onesided XiuHan, and eventual fluffy yet slightly angsty XiuLay.

Also an AU where Xiumin is addicted to cappuccino (and Luhan) and meets Yixing who opens up a whole new world to him.

[Part 1 of College Beverage!AU]

Foreword

My first time ever writing XiuLay sigh I hope I did the ship justice because I love XiuLay a lot (and Taoris without a doubt).

Warning: Mopey and sad Xiumin in this story. But on the brighter side... There's weird Lay who does things without permission and comforts him (actually almost fluffy if you squint really hard)

This story was inspired by a post on Tumblr with a collection of Yixing drinking Starbucks, milk tea, green tea and a whole other load of sweet drinks. No offense intended to Starbucks, I love their drinks. :)

I would appreciate comments telling me if I'm supposed to censor vulgarities or italicize them or marking my story as 'M' or something. Any advice on how AFF works would be great because this website is really confusing and there isn't like an instruction manual or something, and I even read the terms and conditions because I just up a lot.

I also will upload this story on AO3 because yolo.

Enjoy! :D

Chapter 1: Tbh I was expecting smth at the end like "Minseok, I can't leave you because... I... I'm your protection fairy" okay lol I mean Yixing being always around trying to protect him and giving him love reminds me of a fairy (idk tbh, im weird, im sorry)

And Luhan should fcking fight me! (ノಠ ∩ಠ)ノ彡( o°o) how could he said that about my baby min???

I really like the story and just like Minseok said, it was bittersweet

Thank you so muuuuch for writing this! :3
"The difference between Luhan and Yixing’s hug is blatantly obvious, and he feels like he’s going to melt into Yixing’s protecting arms." That made my heart ache, I cant do this anymore

Chapter 1: i personally think fancy words arent so much needed provided the author knows how to put words together and bring some kind of emotions. and you've done that c:
i really love the style of your writing, it's not complicated and the tone is comfortable to read with

so everyone is aware of minseok's feelings towards luhan, it's cute how yixing creepily enters minseok's life with bad life choices (bad taste in coffee-according to minseok) forces his way into his personal space, he's there with hugs and comfort words, he's there with teas and coffees prepared to calm minseok, he's there to grab every opportunity for indirect kisses shared with minseok CCCC:¦
i think luhan's words were harsh, so his friendship with minseok was not as sincere(?) as i thought, it seems like he was taking advantage of minseok and making fun of him at the same time- i haven't really encountered jerk!han in fics haha xD- i find it sad that as a friend he didnt even try to idk solve the issues you know sort feelings out, letting minseok know he doesnt see him that way and it's better for the latter to move on and maybe then their friendship could be renewed well not exactly but they might form a stronger bond

thank you for the feeeels! xiulay is adorable <3

(ps i hope you find a yixing♡ ¦:3)

Chapter 1: This is too short I'm crying ;;;;; but awww all the notes and indirect kiss scenes sobs
I kind of really hate how Lu Han keeps hanging around Minseok but then talks badly about him behind his back. I hope when Minseok finally finally falls in love with Yixing, Lu Han will be so stupefied and shocked because i bet he hadn't seen that coming at all.
