NCT Oneshots and Imagines

DION. - Stress Reliever

An idol-stylist!au where Y/N is NCT 127's stylist and make up artist.

Taeyong's been put into a lot of stress lately. Pressure, fatigue, the constant nagging of their managers, even looking over his 9 members make him stressed. Y/N catches him take a weird glance at her every now and then recently, and by the looks of it, she thought that maybe having a time just for the two of them would help the poor leader.

DISCLAIMER.

Wrote this around Regular-Irregular era, so please expect the transition from being OT9 to OT10 present in this smut work. Thank you.

Fabric scraps scattered on the floor. Measuring tapes hanging on each of their managers and stylists' hands. Racks with different costumes and accessories lined up at the side of the room. The constant movements and chit-chats of their staffs. The room was a whole mess and everything makes Taeyong dizzy as fuck.

❝ Mark, how come you grew almost 3 inches tall? Geez, this will put us into a lot of work again! ❞

Taeyong overhears and glances at Mark. The lion's eyes were tired yet pleading, wanting to just run away, go back to his dorm room and sleep forever. ❝ It wasn't his fault he grew taller though, ❞ the leader thought. He gave Mark a sorry look, mumbling 'hwaiting' which made the younger smile a little.

❝ Jungwoo, next week you'll start learning the rest of the dances in Limitless, Touch, and the rest of Chain. Got that? ❞

He glances at Jungwoo nodding and smiling, but he knows for one that it was all just to hide his fatigue. He's been tired more than anyone else in the group since he had to learn all their dances before Regular. However, the cutie still stays positive and willing to learn. Sometimes Taeyong wished he was as enthusiastic as Jungwoo.

❝ TY, stay still! ❞

Y/N's voice puts him back to reality. He mumbled a sorry and straightened his back, Y/N measuring how long his wardrobe would be. ❝ It's a good thing you didn't grew tall or anything, TY. You'll get nagged again by the managers, ❞ Y/N whispered then she chuckled. She's obviously done with the noise of their staff and just wants to get this over with.

Unlike their other staffs, Y/N was nice and welcoming. She treated them like her friends, but always puts her job first before anything. Besides, if she gets too attached to them she might get fired.

❝ All done, TY. You did a great job. Thanks for the hard work! ❞ Y/N then leaned to Taeyong's ears and whispered. ❝ Although you might wanna check on Mark over there. He's dead-ass tired. ❞

❝ I will, Y/N-noona. Thanks. ❞ Taeyong gives Y/N a subtle wink, earning a scoff from the stylist. ❝ Yah Haechan-ssi, come here! ❞ Taeyong heard Y/N shout while he approached Mark who also just finished.

❝ Hyung, we still need to work on the steps we made after all of this, ❞ Mark said with dread in his eyes. Taeyong gave him a knowing look, sat down on the floor and leaned his back on the cold wall.

❝ I know Mark. But we could use some time to rest. I know we all need it, especially you and Jungwoo. ❞

❝ But hyung, will they let us? We have busy schedules. We almost don't have time for rest. ❞

Mark sits on the floor with him, looking at Taeyong who was also looking at him. Taeyong gave him an encouraging smile.

❝ Don't worry Mark, we'll think of something. We'll get some rest. Hwaiting. ❞
