"If all of us can be happy and experience this much love, why would we not choose polyamory? Why limit myself to only giving and receiving love from one person when I know I'm capable of more?"
Poly fanfic 👀
Several chapters are written and being e...
"You guys called for me?" Daisy confirmed, heading down the stairs to the large practice room where her 'Flicker' team members, minus K, were gathered. They nodded, Sunghoon patting the seat beside him. "It's about K oppa, isn't it?"
"Yes," Heeseung confirmed. "We want to talk to him about his leadership, but we aren't sure how..."
"We thought that since you've discussed things like this with him before, you could help us," Jungwon finished.
She nodded in understanding, sighing slightly as she shifted to stretch her legs. "What exactly do you guys want to tell him? What is the point you want to get across?" There was a moment of silence as they tried to formulate their thoughts.
"I want him to know that we still like him as a hyung," Heeseung started. "And that we aren't trying to like—gang up on him." Daisy hummed, turning to Jungwon. As the youngest of the group, she wanted to make sure his voice was heard as well. He shifted uncomfortably in his seat on the floor.
"It feels like we can't talk to him about our ideas, and it makes everything uncomfortable."
Jake nodded in agreement, Sunghoon running a hand through his hair with a small sigh. "I can't help but worry that this will only cause more problems." Daisy pursed her lips.
"Depending on how we go about it, it could," she confessed. "Even if our intentions are good, it can be very hurtful and sensitive to criticize a person's leadership." Heeseung got a pained look across his face, knowing first-hand exactly what she meant.
"When I was the leader for the first test, I wish you guys had talked to me about what you wanted differently. I want to give hyung the conversation I didn't have."
Daisy lightly squeezed the older boy's shoulder. It may have been a while ago, but she could tell it still stung a lot. "This is a talk that needs to happen," she finalized. "But I don't want to be leading it too much. Aside from wanting you to get used to these confrontations, I don't want K oppa to feel like I have a personal issue with him, and if I'm the one mainly talking it may come across that way."
They nodded in understanding.

"Do you think that was okay?" Daisy quietly asked Jake from her place with her head in his lap. They'd discovered that this was one of their favorite ways to cuddle, and were often found in this position throughout the day. Jake hesitated before nodding slightly.
"It's like you said, it was a conversation that needed to happen." "But we made him cry."
Jake pet her hair gently. "You're not at fault," he reminded. "No one is. People just get emotional sometimes. That doesn't mean you did anything wrong." She sighed, running a hand through her bangs. He noticed her excessive amount of stress at the moment, and made her lay in the bed.
"Do you want Jay or Sunghoon?" he gently asked, thinking that they were able to soothe her anxieties easier than he was. After all, she'd known them a lot longer.
Daisy furrowed her brows, lips pouting out as she immediately sat back up. "Jake...I have a question for you." The boy stilled, unsure of what was happening. "Are you my boyfriend?"
"Yes! Of course I am...right?" "Then, why do you act like you're still someone who just joined a relationship instead of someone's who's part of it?"
She analyzed his changing expressions and uncertain body language, and intertwined their hands. "That may have come off harsher than I intended it too, I'm sorry." Jake shook his head, assuring her it was fine, but she could tell he was now quite distressed. "Look at me," she gently directed, cupping his cheeks.
"I'm not sure how to phrase this...but sometimes I feel like you think you're just borrowing me to give back to Jay and Sunghoon. Jake, I'm your girlfriend too. You are just as important to me and to our relationship. If you feel like I need something, it doesn't have to come from them."
Her hands trailed to his torso, resting over his heart. "Every part of you is for me." She placed his hand over her own heart. "And every part of me is for you. You're not lesser because we've been together for a smaller amount of time."
His eyes wandered over their intertwined bodies for quite some time. "It scares me," he mumbled.
"What?"
"How much I want you." She flushed, questioning the context of his words briefly before deciding to go with the cleaner version. "I think in the back of my head, I've just been waiting for you to decide you don't actually want all of us," he continued, eyes dropping away from her intent gaze.
"Don't. Don't wait for that." She tilted his chin toward her, leaning in so their lips were only millimeters a part. "I want you, Jake."

"Holy shit," Sunghoon swore as Daisy entered the room with her outfit for "Flicker" on.

"I like it too," Daisy chuckled, wondering what Jay would think based on the way Sunghoon and Jake were basically undressing her with their eyes. Respectfully. "Shall we run it once more before we go up?"
K nodded, getting into position. Daisy felt someone watching her and realized it was both Heeseung and Sunoo, though Sunoo seemed more like he was hyping her up whereas Heeseung was quite clearly flustered. She shook her head with a small snort before going into performance mode.

"Come here," Jay directed as she entered the kitchen post-performance. She raised an eyebrow defiantly.
"Why?"
The look in his eyes changed from authoritative to pleading, and she couldn't help but cackle as she recognized the reason. "Alright. What about you g—"
"Already there," Sunghoon called from the hallway. Daisy hesitatingly glanced over at Jake. His cheeks were flushed, but his eyes were less embarrassed and more...intense.
"Are you gonna join us?" she asked, her hands grabbing his belt loops. Jake shook his head, leaning in next to her ear.
"When I see you come undone for the first time...I want it for me and me alone."

Author's Note:
I apologize for the fact that this chapter took SO long, I don't know why but I was just dreading it and struggling to write this for the longest time and I'm still not totally happy with it. That's part of why it's so short, but I hope the bit of spiciness at the end made up for it ;)
