Lonesome love (Deok su)

(requested)

Reader pronouns: they/them

Note: yes this is based off a mitski song, u got something to say about it?/j

When you left Deok su he was shocked,he thought everything was going good but it turned out you gotten tired of all the gambling and when you found out he was taking money from his gang it was the last straw for you. You had told him you were leaving when he got home and saw you with your stuff packed,your face didn't show any emotion as you pushed past him and out the door.

He told himself it didn't matter and he was over it,yet your face always managed to find its way back into his mind whether it was while he was trying to sleep or even hanging out with his gang. He thought he saw you at the store but when he looked back to make sure it was you,you had disappeared already.

When he found one of your shirts under his bed he couldn't help but take in your scent again,he looked down dejected as he rubbed the fabric between his fingers once more before shoving it away in his closet.

He didn't want to acknowledge the lack of intimacy that started to linger in him after you left,he remembered how you guys would dance when it was just the two of you,or how the food you made tasted like something a mother would make for their favorite child. He found himself going to your number,which surprisingly hasn't changed yet.

You agreed to see him again just this once,he was determined to make it clear he didn't love you anymore. The idea was thrown out the window when you approached him and said a simple 'hello' and talked to him,he knew he lost his mission to get over you and it frustrated him.

The two of you ended up staying the night with each other but when he had woken up it turned out you already left his house,not a trace of you was left behind except for the faint smell of your perfume/cologne. He was still unsatisfied, the familiar feeling of loneliness returned as he got up from bed.
