Sae-byeok x reader !!
tw/cw - none.
- kang sae byeok isn't one for words. she finds it hard to verbally express the way she feels, unbelievably difficult in her mind to forge the thoughts spiraling through her brain into comprehensible syllables. instead, she finds herself through actions, and much prefers this method when expressing how much she truly cares about you. leaning down to tie the laces that have fallen loose around your shoes. handing you a small snack when she knows you haven't eaten for several hours. she's gentle in the way she pulls on the end of your sweater to keep you from wandering off in an unknown direction, guiding you by linking your pinkies together to prevent getting lost. and at the notice of a small shiver that shakes your body, she's wrapping the jacket previously on her frame over your shoulders and going about your day without giving it a second thought.
- loves the cats that she finds strolling through the streets. you'd be on one of your routinely walks through the city when the girl pauses in her steps, staring at a small ball of fur hiding between the cracks of the alleyway. without a word shes crouching down and extending out her hand, and perhaps knowing of her kind nature the kitten trots forward and nudges its nose against her palm. it grazes along the skin and allows her to scratch between the space of its ears, and you smiled at the soft look that paints the image of sae-byeok's expression.
- was left shocked the first time you made her a home cooked meal. it had been but a simple surprise during one of your outings, gifting her a small box wrapped in cloth paired with your blindingly bright smile. at first she stared at you, wondering what was hidden in the object that she took from your grasp before brown eyes widened at the sight of steaming rice and cooked meat. her eyes would flicker between you and the box, trying to comprehend the sudden gift bestowed upon her. eventually she shook away the shock enough for her to gently pick up the chopsticks you had brought and take her first bite, swallowing down the warmth and emotion that tried to lodge itself within her throat. "it's really good. thank you." she'd say, before taking her time to savor the feeling of home that came with your food.
- kisses you like you're a flower she'd crush in the palm of her hand. sae-byeok's fingers trembled against the apple of your cheeks the first time you kissed, salty tears upon your lips and shaky breaths taken in through her nose. your own hands clutched tightly onto the fabric of her shirt, hoping it would stable your being from ascending due to the feelings that surged through your chest in that moment. the euphoria from the feel of her appendages press lightly against yours, the fear that she'd slip away the moment you breathed to catch your breath, the burn that scorched your skin with the press of her body tightly against your own. and yet the flushed cheeks and bruising of her lips after she pulled away, still ghosting along your face as she sucked air into her lungs had you throwing all rational away and diving in for more. disregarding the thorns and allowing her to nurture the petals.
- sae-byeok has trouble sleeping most nights, leaving her to stare at the ceiling in utter silence in hopes it would come to her eventually. it never did, but she found that admiring the peaceful state of your being helped lull the thoughts that kept her awake. one arm kept her propped up as she stared down at the form asleep in her bed, lips agape to let out soft snores and hair pillowed around your head. her fingers, rough and calloused push aside the loose strands from your face, gliding down to your arm and brushing the skin with the pad of her thumb. she stared, mesmerized by your being and feeling as if she didn't deserve such a happiness to swell inside her chest at the sight of you.
- listens quietly to your rambles. the relationship you shared with the girl went one of two ways. a comfortable silence that fills the atmosphere, leaning your head on her shoulder and staring at seemingly nothing or disrupted by your words speaking of whatever came to mind. the events of your evening, the worries that troubled your heart and the splurge of facts that came with the hobbies and interests you adored. sae-byeok would never interrupt the flow in which you speak, for she quite liked the sound of your voice and the smile that graced your lips when talking of something you loved.
- sae-byeok who wants to be a better person for you. she'd quit pick pocketing and remove herself from gang affairs, cleansing herself of the sins she committed. blood washes down the sink with the ticking clock that indicates the passing of time. she isn't ashamed to show the dark parts of herself, wanting you to know about each and every thing that makes up her being. and yet she wishes to better herself for she wants to give you the very best that you deserve.
- defends you until the edges of the earth. despite being a quiet soul, she does not fear confrontation when needed. securing the dreams you expressed to her and picking up the pieces of yourself that slip through your hands with each harsh blow of reality. you, with such a beautiful soul, merits the hopes in forms of twinkling hues and beams of sunshine, ones she wishes to keep held up to the sky.
- makes no protests as you tilt her chin up, bringing the damp cloth to smear the cut prominent on her face. hickory gazes into your own as you remain focused, careful as if she was made of the finest porcelain. worry clouds your vision at the questions that arise and form inside your head, mumbles leaving your lips in halfhearted words meant to be a scolding. however you cannot bring yourself to remain sad, not when she gazes at you as if you held the whole word. instead you'd place a pastel bandaid over the gauge and lean forward to allow your lips to linger along her skin.
- knows you're the one the moment you manage to bring out a smile on her brothers face. winter nips at your cheeks and bring color to the skin, and yet you and the young boy smile as you hand him his christmas gift, a small family photo framed in the prettiest of crafts made by your hands and a stuffed animal to accompany the present. he links his arms over your shoulders to express his thanks, you patting his back as you lock gazes with the girl a few feet away. you'd never erase the soft smile that brightened her features that cold winter night.
- lives for the stars that reflect in your gaze. she noticed it the first time you lay on the ground, side by side in the middle of nowhere. grass itched at her skin and heat blanketed the atmosphere despite the cooler temperatures, and yet she ignored it all to watch your attention directed towards the sky and the palm you held out as if gracing the stars. it was supposed to be simple star gazing, listening to your indications of the constellations that littered the sky. she couldn't help but think there were far more prettier things in life to admire.
- sae-byeok loves you in a way that's pure, a garden she grew just for you. there may be creases in the petals and weeds in the dirt, but she never fails to pull them from their roots and admire the flowers despite the peculiarities. she loves in a way that requires no words and no definitions, just the presence of her soul intertwined with your own.
