masterlist | chapter one

“Good morning Aisha-” Jeonghan entered the bedroom, he wanted to inform her, that he already made breakfast and was leaving early because of a meeting. But when he entered the bedroom he didn’t see his wife, “Aisha, Aisha” he started calling her name but there was no response at all, he panicked. He went towards the washroom and knocked on the door, “Aisha, are you inside? Aisha?” there was still no response, “Aisha at least response, please reply me back, are you okay?” Jeonghan was more than worried, he wasn’t this worried and devasted when everything happened two months ago. After five minutes, he knocked on the door again, “Aisha I’m coming inside please stay away from the door” he had no other choice rather than entering, he saw Aisha sitting on the bathroom floor, and the moment Aisha looked at her husband, she sighed in relief, she had no strength at all. All these morning sicknesses were making her weak.

“Aisha… oh my god” he went closer to her and picked her up carefully. Aisha, clung her hands to Jeonghan’s neck “why didn’t you call me Aisha” She buried her face on his chest, he was smelling so fresh and his nice cologne somehow gave comfort to Aisha. Aisha was already used to this feeling, Jeonghan carrying her around whenever she felt dizzy or weak. “Aisha… when I said, I’ll take care of you and you’re my responsibility, I meant it. Truly” Aisha was feeling guilty for everything that happened past two months. He placed her on the bed and gave her a glass of water. “Aisha” he lowered to her height and looked at her. She drank water and kept the glass on the side table. “Are you off to work Jeonghan?” he shook his head, “I was, I am not going anymore, my wife needs care right now. How can I leave my wife alone?”

“But Jeonghan-” he pressed fingers on her lips, refraining her to speak further, he took out his phone and dialed a number. “I would apply for a leave and you can attend the meeting in my place. I need to stay with Aisha today, she’s not feeling well, do let her know. I’ll send you all the files in a few minutes. Do well with the presentation and don’t forget to suggest the things we decided yesterday.”

“She’ll be okay.” his team members knew about Aisha because sometimes Jeonghan applies for half day for her appointments.

“Good luck, Junho” and he hung up. Aisha was feeling guilty that she was the reason he didn’t go to attend a meeting, everything that happened that day, Aisha was reminded of everything. She cannot forget how Seungcheol, reacted.

“did you sleep with him?” she was shocked because, she never thought he would actually say that to her and questioned her loyalty, “you’ve lost your mind Seungcheol” Aisha argued back, because nothing like this happened. How could even Seungcheol not listen to her even once, and accuse her of cheating.

“did you sleep with my bestfriend behind my back?”

Aisha teared up thinking about Seungcheol and looking at her Jeonghan’s eyes softened. He took a seat beside her on the bed and pulled her into a hug, “Aisha… it’s okay”

“You always do so much for me and this is not even your-” he made her face him, “Don’t ever say that, okay? Don’t forget you’re my wife now. I am your husband, and I am supposed to do things which counts as my responsibility, so never say anything like that.” He wiped her tears, “thankyou so much” the urge to kiss her forehead was something he was resisting. He didn’t want to make anything awkward between them, he just wanted to give all the love that Aisha and the baby deserved. He can’t turn back time but he can be her husband and take care of them.

“Aisha” he called her name and caressed her cheeks, she was starting to feel better. Aisha was always thankful to Jeonghan for everything, maybe she can’t say it aloud everytime, but she was always grateful to Seungcheol for making her meet Jeonghan. “Freshen up and I’ll bring your breakfast in the room.” Aisha nodded, Jeonghan was giving all the love and comfort she was craving and wanted, it was her heart that hurts at times at the thought of Seungcheol. He was supposed to the one who should be taking care of her, but it’s Yoon Jeonghan who is doing everything. Aisha held the hem of Jeonghan’s shirt, Jeonghan looked at his wife, and gave a small smile. “I’ll be quick, okay?” she nodded at his words.

Soon, Jeonghan walked out of the room.

SEVENTEEN AS CHASE ATLANTIC SONGS

Kinda a playlist for y’all if you like chase Atlantic lol … also I saw that people liked my “The neighborhood’s one for hip-hop unit “ so I did another for all members and chase Atlantic as they are another group I like.

Scoups : Paranoid, this song with heavy hip hop inspiration, makes me feel like it kinda fit Seungcheol charisma as a leader. Idk like I can imagine a bomb ass edit about scoups with that song and his powerful aura 🤷🏻‍♀️

Jeonghan: Meddle about, this song is heavily flirty just like Jeonghan. It kinda vibes with the flirty but mischievous side of Jeonghan. This song makes me think of him, because I can imagine him just teasing his crush and mess a bit with their mind (not in a harmful way) but just to tease you and build the tension between you two. The lyrics can represent either yours or his frustration to the tension :p

Joshua : Oh mami (ft Maggie Lindemann), Joshua as a professional racer (?) concept 😌 this concept fits Joshua and so the song. I just feel like the concept of Joshua driving fast cars and being cocky is hot on him. That’s the only reason I chose that song for him 😭😭😭 Also the lyrics are hot and I feel like it fits Joshua flirty side of him.

Jun: Right here , jealous boyfriend concept on jun? I think yes and ofc always in a healthy way 😌. I just imagine Jun wrapping his arm around your waist and pull you close to him to kiss you. Wanting him to focus only on him and forget about others for this moment.

Hoshi : Devilish , HOSHI on stage is this song. Don’t argue with me. His dark aura, charisma, piercing eyes fits this song so much. I can think of HOSHI “tiger gaze” 😭 with this song. He’s hella hot on stage and that song is hot so 💃

Wonwoo : Love isn’t Easy, this song gives me an ethereal vibe. The moment I listened the song it gave me wonwoo vibe idk why 😭, like his calm self. I feel like if you broke up with him or had a discussion about a bad experience with love, he would answer calmly . Idk this song is like a safe place, and Wonwoo is my safe place so you get my pattern 😣. Can we also talk abt the lyrics that said “it’s like tears in the rain, it means nothing “ 😭💔💔 breaking my heart yayyYayayay

Woozi: Drugs & Money, this song has a more calm vibe to it without losing its rock(?) side. I chose that song for Woozi, because it kinda talks about struggles and love. In Woozi songs we can found those themes and I thought of him with this song. Maybe he would enjoy this song and like the lyrics. Well I do, and I love Woozi so I’m winning in both 🤪 lmao

Mingyu: Friends, for my previous about post about The neighborhood I also put a song linked to being friend with mingyu, and I’m doing it again. Mingyu in my head is the perfect model for friend to lover, you can’t tell me this songs doesn’t give off Mingyus vibe. He’s so social and flirty, this song feels like being in love with Mingyu but you realize he’s like that with everyone and you’re nothing special, just a friend .

The8: Moonlight, this songs has a chill vibe to it, it’s laid back but nostalgic. I think it fits Minghao because I can imagine having a good time with him and a cool late night with him. Having fun and laughing, walking hands in hands. Car ride at night after a fancy dinner, all dressed pretty.

Dokyeom: Okay, Dk is a hot mfk and some people turn a blind eye to it because he’s funny asf. “Okay” is like my go to song for chase Atlantic. The song is confident and attractive like DK and honestly, he shines on stage because of this. Dk is extremely charismatic too, that’s why this song just fits him 🤷🏻‍♀️

Vernon: No friend, this song is so fun and it has a more rock alternative vibe to it that ressemble Vernon’a taste in my opinion. If I had to go for a song for him, it would be this one. It’s one of my fave song from Chase Atlantic 😌💅

Seungkwan: Slow down, for this song I was going for Seungkwan hot and attractive side to him. Often people sees seungkwan as a soft ball and I do too, but I think he’s a someone really assertive when he wants to and that makes him hot. He knows what he wants and if he wants you, he will get you. This song is kinda like a tease because it’s feeling someone else to slow down and they will control the situation, and I’m a believer Seungkwan is a top and likes to take control. So for that Seungkwan is Slow down of chase Atlantic.

Chan: Swim, the song is hot and I feel like it represent Dino as he often goes for body rolls when he does free style dancing and the song vibe fits body rolls 😭😭it just a sexy/confident song and that fit Dino’s vibe. 😌

and then I met you

“Aisha”

“How did this happen Jeonghan?” Aisha was crying in his arms, Jeonghan always gave him the comfort of a bestfriend. “Let’s go home first, you can’t stay here like this.” Aisha shook her head. “You will get sick Aisha”

“How can he leave?” Aisha couldn’t stop crying, it felt like someone ripped her heart, everything went upside down in one second, Jeonghan’s shirt, his perfume, Seungcheol doubting, not even giving her a chance to speak up, Jeonghan witnessing everything, Seungcheol taking off her ring, everyone getting hurt.

“Aisha please, think about yourself, you’re pregnant, Aisha please”

“And he is the dad. HE JUST LEFT ME” Aisha’s screams were nothing compared to what she was feeling inside, Jeonghan couldn’t believe it felt like everything was a lie, how could his bestfriend even do that. All these years of friendship was gone because of a mere misunderstanding?

“Jeonghan how could he leave me right now.” Jeonghan held her carefully, he had a sympathetic look on his face, he himself couldn’t believe what happened.

Had Seungcheol always been this doubtful about him and Aisha, there was no answer to this question except for his actions showed today. He was doubtful of him and Aisha.

“Aisha let’s go home” she shook her head, “Aisha”

“Jeonghan, how can he not give me even a chance to explain” with each word she was breaking down inside and nothing could fix her right now except for one persona and he just left.

“We’ll talk to Seungcheol, let’s go home for now. Let him cool down, we will go visit him. I’ll try to talk to him” Jeonghan somehow managed to convince her and they went to her apartment. Jeonghan dropped her off first and he had to leave because of his office.

After changing her clothes to the dry ones, Aisha looked at herself in the mirror, she looked like a mess. She couldn’t think about anything else anymore, how could this happen.

She tried calling Seungcheol again, he wasn’t picking her calls. She was worried about him and Aisha finally decided to give him some time, she would go to meet him in evening. She just knew she had to clear out the whole misunderstanding, how could he even say that to her and doubt her with Jeonghan.

The whole day Aisha was worried and would cry anytime, she was so happy yesterday and today she’s living the worst day of her life. She never imagined things would turn this way. She didn’t even had any strength to call her bestfriend Jia, to tell her everything.

Aisha took a cab to Seungcheol’s place, she was scared about driving in this state, she was crying already the whole time and she wasn’t in the right state to drive right now. After paying the cab, Aisha got out of the cab, the moment she got out of the cab it started raining, Aisha regretted not bringing her umbrella.

She tried calling Seungcheol again but there was still no response from his side, “Seungcheol please open the door” she was banging on the door, because he won’t just open the door no matter how many times she rang the bell. “Seungcheol, I know you’re behind the door right now” Aisha teared up, “Aisha, give me a chance to explain please”

“Today morning coffee spilled over all my t-shirt and Jeonghan was there and he gave me his shirt. Nothing more happened. Seungcheol please open the door, please let me in. Please.” And there was no sign of Seungcheol opening the door. She was desperate under the rain, so that he could hear her voice and give her a chance. “Seungcheol please” she fells on her knees infront of his door, she didn’t care of how people saw her, she just knew, her love didn’t believe her anymore and that was the worst nightmare specially when she needed him the most.

How could he forget everything and choose to leave her alone in a time like this.

She spent two hours crying there, she was crying and calling out Seungcheol’s name but there was no use, she was wondering, how did a small jealousy go this far, she remembers Seungcheol used to joke once or twice about Aisha and Jeonghan being nice friends but this never went this far, because Aisha never had feelings for Jeonghan and same went for him.

“Seungcheol, please open once. Please listen to me once and then I promise I’ll leave. Please” her voice was just audible to herself at this point. “Seungcheol please.” Her hand started hurting because of the times she was banging the door, it felt like she didn’t had any strength anymore.

“Seungcheol”

“Aisha” she looked up because of the voice.

“Aisha get up” he helped her stand, Aisha couldn’t stand without his support.

“Jeonghan please tell him to open the door, he is not opening the door. Please tell him I came, his Aisha came” she started crying again, holding Jeonghan’s arms. “Please Jeonghan help me, help me this once, this is a request, please tell him his Aisha came. Please”

“Aisha you’re drenched in rain, you will get sick at this point.”

“I am not leaving, I need to talk to him, he is not picking up my calls, he is not letting me see him. I need to talk to him” she shouted, she was done with crying, she needed to see Seungcheol. “I already explained everything to him, he needs to see me and talk to me face to face.” Jeonghan was feeling so helpless, the fact he’s trying to contact Seungcheol ever since he left Aisha’s apartment after dropping her but he was not picking up and he finally called him when he was on his way back home. Jeonghan thought he finally gave him a chance to clear it up, rather the thing Seungcheol said left me in shock, ‘take your girl away from my place, it’s been almost three hours’ Jeonghan was driving and he stopped his car on signal, without thinking twice he made his way towards Seungcheol’s place.

He was worried about Seungcheol’s and Aisha’s relationship but somehow he was worried more about Aisha’s health, when she called him yesterday she told him, she was already a month pregnant when she found out, and he can’t leave Aisha behind like this, at least taking her side is the least he could do as her friend.

That’s when he saw, Aisha hitting the door, being on the ground crying.

“Aisha. Enough.”

“Jeonghan I will not leave.”

“You have to leave, did you even realize what’s the time right now? You’re going back home with me.” he had no option left rather than forcing her to take her home.

“I will not go back home. And what are you even doing here?” she looked at him.

“Seungcheol will not open the door and he called me, telling me to take you home.”

“If he can call you, then why isn’t he accepting my call and talking to me and did you tell him what happened today morning” Aisha was desperate to hear a yes from Jeonghan.

“he hung up after saying that, he didn’t even give me a chance to speak.” It wasn’t even a whole minute that she stopped crying yet, those words brought tears in her eyes, “why isn’t he listening to me Jeonghan?” Jeonghan held Aisha’s hands, “let’s go please, please Aisha”

“I will not go.” She shook her head, Jeonghan still holding both her hands, “where will I go? The place I called my home, the person whom I called home is not even giving me a chance to see his face.”

“you’re coming with me.” Jeonghan felt so apologetics towards her, he was helpless in the whole thing. One side it was his bestfriend who was not even ready to listen to him and another side is his friend who is slowly ruining because of his bestfriend.

After almost half an hour, he convinced Aisha about going home. She was walking, towards his car, and she was about to stumble but Jeonghan was quick to hold her. “Be careful Aisha” he let her inside, and went to the driver’s seat. He gave his coat to her, since she was fully wet and turned on the heater. “Aisha, I’m sorry” he just felt apologetic, somewhere.

He started driving but he could hear soft sobs, Jeonghan was getting frustrated because of Seungcheol’s behavior, now matter what how could he not give either of them a chance to speak and jump into conclusions. And avoiding to talk with them was making the matter even worse.

There was traffic because it was still office hours, he realized he couldn’t hear any soft sobs anymore and turned his head to glance at her. She was sleeping, she looked tired from her face.
