Mystic Messenger Short Stories

Zen

You sat down onto the floor and started clipping your toe nails. Zen was walking back and forth in front of you, trying to memorize his lines for a musical that was coming up. He didn't notice you yet.

You started clipping away, but your hair kept falling in front of your face, making it hard to see. (Rip if u have short hair sorry😔) You put it back, and continued.

"Oh! MC! I didn't even see you come into the room," Zen's surprised eyes made you giggle at how handsome he was.

"Omg. Can I clip your nails for you? Please?" I crinkled your face, and vigorously shook your head.

"Ewww why would you want to clip my toenails? They're gross."

"I just want to...please?" Zen clasped his hands together and gave you a look that he knew you couldn't resist. It looked like the 🥺 emoji lol.

You sighed and let out a fine as it was obvious that he would've done it anyway if you continued to say no.

You handed him the clipper and sat back, watching him take the foot you were on and started clipping away.

"Do you even know the shape that I like?"

"Yep! Roundish like your fingernails. Unless you want them to be spiky?" He looked up at you with a smirk.

"No!! I don't trust you anymore! Let me do it!" You reaches for the clipper, but Zen pulled them away. In your sitting position, it would be impossible to get them back on your own.

"You don't trust me?🥺 Alright fineee, don't worry, MC. I'll make sure to clip them well for you~" He started clipping again. You pouted, still skeptical, but let him finish.

"Ta da! Didn't I do a good job?" Zen scooted away a little bit to let you have a better look. You inspected them very closely, and sat back with a satisfied smile.

"They're actually not that bad. Good job, Zenny," you sat up and ruffled his hair, then turned around to go put the clipper away.

"Wait, shouldn't I get a reward for my work?" Zen stood up with you and pouted, making his lips more prominent to give you a hint. You didn't give in.

"Didn't I already give you a reward?"

"What?? When?"

"I told you a good job and ruffled your hair!" You smiled innocently. But Zen of course, didn't share the smile with you.

"Fine then. I guess it was my fault for poor communication. I'll get it myself."

"Wha-" you turned around when you didn't hear anything, only to be pushed up against Zen with his arm around your waist. He quickly leaned in to press his lips on yours.

His lips were wet, but comforting. He tried to slip his tongue in when you pushed him away frantically.

"Wait no! I just ate some spicy noodles!" You frowned, feeling slightly embarrassed that Zen was almost going to kiss you with bad breath.

"So? I can't have noodles right now for my upcoming role, so at least I'll get to taste some from you," Zen reaches out to pull you into his arms again, but you shook your head profusely.

"Still no. I'm too embarrassed. Besides, Yoosung said he was coming over soon anyway. I'm going to go shower." You swiftly walked away into the bathroom, but Zen followed you.

"How about we shower together then?" He wiggled his eyebrows.

"You know what? How about no." You grabbed some new clothes and turned on the shower.

You grabbed your toothbrush and started brushing your teeth as you waited for the water to get hot. Little pieces of your baby hair was sticking out, dangerously getting close to the toothpaste foam that was on your toothbrush.

Annoyed, you used your free hand to hold the baby hairs out of the way.

"Here, let me hold your hair for you," Zen smoothly moved your hand away and replaced it with his own. You felt immense heat coming from his body that was pressed up against your side.

Is this what it's going to feel like if he holds my hair up for me when I get morning sickness when I'm pregnant?

Finished, you washed your mouth off and replied a thanks to Zen.

"I still don't see why I can't shower with you. It's not like there's anything I haven't seen before," Zen crosses his arms and leaned on the bathroom counter.

You tried to hide the small blush that was creeping up onto your cheeks as you got undressed.

"I already told you. Yoosung is getting here soon, and he might arrive while I'm still in the shower, so you'll need to be the one who opens the door for him," you got into the shower, feeling the burning hot water jump onto your skin. The right temperature for you.

"Fineee. I'll let you get away with it this time. I'm going to go and wait in the living room then," you mumbled an okay and saw his figure through the translucent glass leave the room.

After you finished the shower, you stepped out and reached for your towel that was nearby. Out of the corner of your eye, you saw that when Zen left, he forgot to close the door.

Is this guy serious.

You quickly dressed into the new clothes and put your hair up in the towel and left to go find Zen.

Like he said before, he was chilling in the living room. Yoosung wasn't here yet.

"Really Zen? You forgot to close the bathroom door," you stood in front of him and tried to muster up a stern look.

"So? What's wrong with that if we live together as a couple?" Zen's gaze didn't change.

"But what if Yoosung was here and went into the bathroom without knowing I was in there?"

"But he didn't."

"But he could've!"

"But that didn't happen. Don't you like the thrill of something that might happen?" Zen gave your an innocent smile that reflected the one you gave him earlier.

"Fine then," you pulled out your phone and logged onto the messenger, "then what if I just take a picture of myself in my underwear right now and send it to a random person in the messenger directly?"

You started to unbutton your shirt to expose your bra underneath, ready to snap a picture.

"What? Are you crazy?!" Zen stood up and tried to button up your shirt. You stepped back to not let him have access.

"BuT dOnT yOu LiKe tHe tHRiLL?? Maybe the picture will end up getting sent to you, or maybe it'll get sent to Yoosung! You didn't seem to mind the chance of Yoosung seeing me exposed earlier!" You closed your eyes and pressed and random contact on your phone.

"Oh look! I picked Jumin! I guess he'll be the lucky one tonight!" You opened the camera feature and tried to get a good angle.

"No!!!! You can't!!! Especially to the trust fund kid!" Zen smacked your phone out of your hands and tackled you onto the couch. He started to roughly button up your shirt again.

"This body is for me and me only."
