i'm actually so distraught by the whole seunghan situation. can't decide whether i should be angry or like sobbing my eyes out. the poor boy just wanted to follow his dreams, but the ot6ers bullied him out of his group. the same group that wanted him back so badly and consider him family. the same group that was overjoyed that he was coming back, only to have their hopes crushed while on a plane flying back home. like come onnn. im gonna cry the videos and pictures of him seeing the funeral wreaths are so devastating, and it breaks my heart. im so sorry, seunghan, that you have to go through this. please, you are so loved by real briize. riize will always be 7 no matter what 😭🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck

this was so cute 😭💗

ꕥ lucky fan; — heeseung one shot, wc: 2.0k, genre: fluff

heeseung’s older brother didn’t expect to make a close friend when you transferred to korea university, but your arrival in his class changed that. you were bright, easy to talk to, and had an infectious enthusiasm that made even the dullest lectures more interesting. as you got to know each other, he learned about your life, your interests, and, amusingly, your deep admiration for enhypen—specifically, his younger brother, heeseung.

when you confided in him that watching the first two episodes of i-land had made you cry—something that had never happened with an idol before—he couldn’t help but chuckle. it was endearing, but he kept the information to himself, never teasing you about it, just quietly noting it.

one day, heeseung mentioned to his brother that he had some free time and suggested they hang out. an idea formed in his mind, a way to bring a little joy to your life. he invited you to hang out, like many times before, but didn’t tell you that heeseung would be joining. it would be a fun surprise.

when you arrived at the restaurant, your upperclassman guided you to a private room, which made you pause for a moment. “is there a special occasion or something? this setup feels a bit fancy,” you joked.

he smiled, shaking his head. “nah, nothing like that. i guess my brother’s a bit on the shier side.”

you nodded, accepting his explanation, and settled in. the two of you ordered, and your upperclassman was slightly surprised when you managed to pick out dishes he knew heeseung would love. you even insisted on ordering ramen, which made him smile to himself, knowing how much his brother appreciated it.

as you chatted, the door slid open, and you glanced up, your heart nearly stopping when you saw heeseung standing there. for a moment, you thought he must have gotten the wrong room, but then he greeted your upperclassman happily and took a seat. the shock was evident on your face, and you quickly looked away, cheeks burning with embarrassment.

heeseung seemed just as surprised to see you. “i didn’t know you invited someone else,” he said, glancing between you and his brother.

your upperclassman grinned, sensing the tension and introducing you two. “heeseung, this is y/n. she’s a huge fan.”

you felt your face flush with embarrassment, and you managed a shy smile. “it’s really nice to meet you,” you said, your voice a little shaky.

heeseung smiled, his lips curving into a grin. “thanks for your support.”

as the food arrived, you stayed quiet, letting the brothers catch up. heeseung’s older brother noticed this and decided to pull you into the conversation, mentioning that you and heeseung were the same age.

“really?” heeseung asked, looking at you with interest. “we should drop the formalities then. it’s more comfortable that way.”

you stammered, “you don’t have to—i mean, it’s okay.”

he chuckled, shaking his head. “no, really, i’d prefer it. any friend of my brother’s is a friend of mine.”

your upperclassman added, “you know, y/n is studying neuroscience. she’s pretty amazing.”

you blushed at the compliment and waved it off. “i’m just trying to keep up with my classes, honestly.”

heeseung’s eyes lit up with interest. “neuroscience? that sounds intense. what got you into that field?”

as you explained your fascination with the brain and how it worked, sharing a little about your studies and research, heeseung listened intently, his gaze focused on you. it was clear that he was genuinely interested in what you had to say.

“that’s really cool,” heeseung said, nodding thoughtfully. “i’ve always thought about how much mental strength it takes to perform on stage and how the brain plays a role in that. it must be amazing to learn about it in depth.”

you smiled, surprised by his insight. “it is. i’ve actually thought about how the brain processes music and performance, too. it’s fascinating how much is involved.”

your upperclassman chimed in, teasing, “maybe you two should team up and do some research together.”

you laughed, feeling more at ease now. “i’m sure heeseung has enough on his plate without me adding to it.”

heeseung chuckled, shaking his head. “actually, i think it would be fun to learn more about what you do. maybe i can pick your brain sometime.”

“anytime,” you replied, grinning. “though i’m sure you have more interesting things to focus on.”

heeseung leaned in slightly, his eyes warm and inviting. “trust me, this is interesting. besides, i could use a break from the usual routine.”

your upperclassman nodded in agreement, adding, “i’ve heard that sometimes a change of pace is the best way to refresh your mind.”

heeseung smiled. “exactly. and who knows? maybe learning about neuroscience could help me with my music.”

“now that’s something i’d love to see,” you said, your voice filled with genuine enthusiasm. “heeseung’s neuroscience-influenced album.”

the three of you laughed, the conversation flowing easily now. the initial awkwardness had melted away, replaced by a comfortable camaraderie. you found yourself sharing more stories, and even though you tried to stay composed, the warmth in heeseung’s gaze made it hard not to feel a little flustered.

“i’ve got to say,” heeseung said, his tone turning more playful, “you’ve got great taste in food. everything you ordered is exactly what i would’ve picked.”

you laughed, relieved that he liked the selections. “really? i was just going with what i know is good.”

your upperclassman raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing on his lips. “she’s got a knack for that. you should trust her next time you’re out.”

heeseung grinned. “i think i will.”

as the meal continued, your upperclassman decided to push things a little further and ordered some soju to help everyone relax. you hesitated at first, but heeseung smiled at you, encouraging you to join them.

“come on, just one shot,” heeseung urged, his tone light. “it’ll help you relax.”

reluctantly, you agreed, sending a playful glare at your upperclassman, who seemed very pleased with himself. after a few shots, the atmosphere lightened even more, and you found yourself more comfortable, laughing and joking with the two brothers.

“that reminds me,” your upperclassman said with a mischievous grin, “did you know y/n cried for you during i-land? she told me it was the first time she’d ever cried over an idol.”

you kicked him under the table, feeling your cheeks burn with embarrassment. “you didn’t have to say that,” you muttered, trying to hide your face.

heeseung’s eyes softened, clearly touched by the confession. before he could respond, you, tipsy from the soju, began praising him earnestly, talking about how much his hard work and talent meant to you. heeseung listened, his smile growing warmer with each word.

“i remember watching you struggle, and it made me realize how much you care about what you do,” you rambled, your words coming out more freely now. “it wasn’t just about winning—it was about doing your best, and that really inspired me.”

heeseung looked down, a bit shy but clearly moved by your words. “thank you. that means a lot.”

feeling bolder, he reached over and gently squeezed your hand, sending your heart racing. you blushed deeply, though the alcohol’s flush helped hide it.

sensing that the evening was going well, your upperclassman excused himself to the restroom, leaving you alone with heeseung. the idol turned his full attention to you, asking more about your life and studies.

as you explained your major in neuroscience, heeseung listened intently, his deer-like eyes fixed on you. his genuine interest made you feel special, and you couldn’t stop yourself from blurting out, “your eyes are really beautiful.”

this time, it was heeseung’s turn to blush. “thank you,” he murmured, looking a bit shy. “you’re… really pretty too.”

at that moment, his brother returned, quickly noticing the new closeness between you two. with a mischievous glint in his eye, he suggested going to a coin karaoke place, and heeseung eagerly agreed.

though you hesitated, wanting to give the brothers time to themselves, heeseung grabbed your hand, looking at you with round, pleading eyes. “please come with us,” he asked softly.

unable to resist, you nodded, and the three of you headed to the karaoke. you watched in awe as heeseung sang, his voice even more beautiful live. after a few songs, he handed you the mic, insisting you sing. you tried to resist, claiming you weren’t any good, but he persisted.

finally, you relented, choosing adele’s “all i ask,” your go-to karaoke song. as you sang, heeseung found himself mesmerized, his thoughts drifting to how lucky his brother was to spend time with you. the way your voice carried the emotion of the song captured his attention entirely, and he found himself leaning in closer as you sang the final notes.

when you finished, heeseung was the first to clap, his cheers the loudest in the room. “that was amazing,” he said, his voice filled with genuine admiration. “you’re really talented.”

your cheeks flushed from the praise, and you tried to hand the mic back to him, but he shook his head, a playful smile on his lips.

at that moment, his brother, with a mischievous grin, suggested, “how about a duet?” he glanced between you and heeseung before adding, “i’ll give you two some time. i need to make a phone call.” he winked and quickly exited the room, leaving you both in a mix of excitement and nerves.

heeseung looked at you, a smile tugging at his lips. “so, duet?”

you hesitated, feeling a bit shy, but the hopeful look in heeseung’s eyes made it impossible to refuse. “alright,” you agreed, “let’s do it.”

the two of you settled on “die with a smile” by lady gaga and bruno mars. as the opening notes played, the room felt charged with an unspoken energy. you exchanged a glance with heeseung, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and began to sing.

as you traded lines, the chemistry between you was undeniable. your voices blended together harmoniously, creating a beautiful mix of tones that filled the room. the connection between you grew with each verse, the intensity of the song amplifying the emotions in the air.

when it came time to sing the chorus together, you couldn’t help but glance at heeseung, your eyes meeting his. the way he looked at you—like you were the only person in the room—sent a thrill down your spine. there was something in his gaze that made your heart skip a beat, something deeper than simple admiration.

heeseung’s voice wrapped around yours like a warm embrace, and you felt the intensity of the moment build as you reached the climax of the song. when you hit the high note, heeseung smiled, his eyes never leaving yours, and you found yourself smiling back, completely lost in the moment.

as the song ended, you both held the final note a little longer, the room filled with the powerful harmony of your voices. the music faded, and there was a brief moment of silence, the air still buzzing with the energy you’d created. then heeseung broke into applause, his grin wide and genuine.

“you’re incredible,” heeseung said, his voice low and sincere. “that was… wow.”

your heart raced at his words, and you couldn’t help but laugh, feeling a little shy under his intense gaze. “you’re not so bad yourself.”

just then, his brother reentered the room, making a show of catching you two in close proximity. flustered, you both jumped back, waving your hands in denial.

heeseung’s brother only smiled smugly. “no judgment if you two like each other.”

the comment made you both shy, but the night continued with a warm, comfortable atmosphere. when it was time to leave, heeseung’s brother ordered a taxi for you. before you got in, you thanked them for inviting you and told heeseung you’d always support him.

on your way home, you relished the memories you’d made when your phone buzzed with a text from an unknown number. it was heeseung.

i got your number from my brother. i hope that’s okay?

you smiled widely and quickly replied that it was fine. heeseung responded, saying how much he enjoyed your company and that he’d like to see you again whenever he could. your heart fluttered as you agreed, already looking forward to the next time you’d see him.

disclaimer: this, in no way, reflects the idol. this is purely fiction. a/n: i watched heeseung's en-log with his brother and thought about how wild it would be to find out your friend's brother is your bias... ✧ comments are appreciated! ✧
