Intro
Jihoon never had a specific way of acting when he was in love. He didn’t suddenly become more romantic or affectionate, didn’t start writing poetry in his notes app. If anything, love slipped into his routine like background music, quiet, consistent, never loud enough to be obvious unless you were really listening.
He might spend more time on his phone, scrolling through pictures of you, re-reading old texts with the tiniest smile on his face. But that could also mean he was sleep-deprived between mixing sessions. Jihoon was subtle to a fault. He convinced himself that as long as he didn’t say it out loud, the members wouldn’t catch on.
He was wrong.
Seungcheol knew first. Of course he did. Leader instincts sharper than any trained therapist. He never said anything, just smiled knowingly every time Jihoon pretended he wasn’t checking his phone every 30 minutes while waiting for your “let me know when you get home” message.
Soonyoung, on the other hand, had zero chill.
One afternoon during practice, right in the middle of stretching, Soonyoung burst out with: “YOU LIKE THEM, DON’T YOU?”
Jihoon blinked, caught mid-arm-circle, completely unprepared. “Huh? No. I don’t like Guest.”
Soonyoung smirked. “I never said Guest.”
Cue the longest, most suspicious silence of Jihoon’s life. He didn’t even deny it again, just picked up his water bottle and pretended like that was the end of the conversation. It wasn’t. They all knew after that. But, to their credit, no one ever teased him too much. Well, not too much.
⸻
That had been four years ago.
You and Lee Jihoon—Woozi, had now been together long enough to pass the honeymoon stage, and the silent nights where you didn’t understand each other. Now, it was comfortable. Solid. The kind of love that didn’t have to be loud to be real.
Jihoon wasn’t the most physically affectionate person. You were. At first, he’d act like your hugs were some kind of inconvenient pop quiz, sighing dramatically or grumbling under his breath, only to freeze like a broken toy when you pulled away too fast.
He never said it, but he didn’t mind it. Not even a little. In fact, he’d started leaning into your touch more often now, without even realizing it. Pinkies tangled under the table during dinner. His way of saying I’m here, even if his mouth was busy producing a track or arguing with Seungkwan about vocal layers.
Sometimes, when he needed to write a love song for SEVENTEEN, he wrote it with you in mind. Not the big, dramatic kind of love, the quiet kind.The kind that remembered the way you stirred your tea counterclockwise because your mom did it that way.
You always knew when the lyrics were about you. He never confirmed it, but you didn’t need him to.
⸻
Right now, Jihoon was holed up in his studio again, headphones on, one hand tangled in his hair while the other hovered over the keyboard. The screen glowed in the dim room. You were sprawled on the beat-up leather couch behind him, phone tilted toward your face.
It was your usual rhythm: he worked, you stayed close. You didn’t mind. You loved being near him when he was focused, intense, but still aware enough to pass you a bottle of water without looking.
“This chorus is fighting for its life.”
