Chapter Text
Renjun had been waiting for … no had been anticipating her package all week, she’d placed the order as soon as pay day hit and had been refreshing the tracking page ever since.
Look, she’d just been really excited to get her new toy, the clit kisser she’d heard about on her favourite sex confessions podcast, the host raged about it the whole episode and like… she had to try it out for herself, as a little experiment, of course.
So it was a bit of an understatement to say she was quite disappointed when it looked like the sex shop had given her the wrong item.. a collar? Don’t get her wrong, it’s cute but it’s definitely not what she ordered and not something she’d wear herself, more like something she’d… want the other person to wear.
“What the fuck, they didn’t even bother putting my name on the label?” So much for being a high end sex toy shop.
Then there was a knock on the door “Great, what now?” Renjun thinks aloud to herself. She puts the collar back in the box and gets up to open the door.
It’s her neighbour- Lee Jeno, she doesn’t know him well (but very secretly thinks he’s very cute). Jeno’s friends with Renjuns roommates Haechan, Mark & Ten so he’s probably looking for one of them, she thinks.
“Morning, Hey…” Jeno says, sounding rushed and almost nervous? “I’m not sure if you guys got anything but I think my package was put in your mail box instead of ours”
“Hm? I went down earlier and didn’t see anything, only my stuff, do you know what the box looks like?” Renjun replies
“It’s just plain, I think i forgot to add my name on the order, It’s supposed to have a pink-“
“Injunnie I got your package~” A familiar voice, coated in menacing sickly sweetness interrupts “Didn’t I tell you to stop online shopping so much, I saw you come in with the same box 20 minutes ago” Haechan. “Oh hey Morning Jeno” He shoves a box with a distinct pink star into Renjuns hands as he slides past the two, into the apartment, whistling into the distance.
“Pink star! That’s my box!” Jeno exclaims as he tries to pry the box out of the elders hands.
“Wait no this is mine it says my name on it here see” Renjun says as she points to the postage label and simultaneously brings the box closer to her chest.
She looks up and sees Jenos face has gone completely red. Shit. A thousand thoughts are racing through her mind and now her face is red.
“Well, um I need to go I have an um.. appointment, yeah..Bye” Renjun scrambles as he slams the front door shut.
Fuck… the collar, that was Jeno’s? And now he knows Renjun ordered a sex toy. Also ‘I have an appointment’ ??? Yeah sure that didn’t sound weird at all after she ran away with her sex box.
Renjun hurries into her room before anyone else wants to confess they’ve ordered from the same site.
🐶🐾
Renjun’s staring down at both boxes on her bed. Great, now what is she supposed to say to Jeno? ‘Hey I accidentally opened your sex package and saw you have a sex collar that says ‘puppy’ on it, thought it would be best to return it to you’ No way. She should just never show her face again. She should just stay in her apartment and rot in there!
Renjun considered putting the damn thing back in the box and leaving it outside Jeno’s door but that could go wrong in so many ways:
1. What if someone (worst case: Haechan) catches her and asks whats going on (Renjun is TERRIBLE at keeping secrets, especially when shes being pushed to tell the truth.)
2. What if one of Jeno’s roommates finds it and opens it instead, poor, sweet (& now submissive?) Jeno. She couldn’t let him go through the humiliation of trying to explain to his bros why he got a human sized dog collar. Non of them even have a dog!
Just as Renjun’s deliberating how she should just run away and simply go off grid there’s a knock on her door; she jumps as she hears the sound and quickly slaps both boxes off the bed.
“Renjuuunnnnn” Oh thank god, it’s just Ten. That’s good, she can trust Ten with this. Haechan would simply rat her out to get a giggle out of it. Mark would do that stupid blushing-stutter-choking up thing he does when he’s reminded Renjun Is A Girl. Ten is the only safe option.
“What was that sound? Are you rearranging your room again??” Ten yells from behind the door.
“Keep it down and come in” Renjun whispers as she pulls the latter into her room, locking the door.
Ten looks down at the two boxes thrown on the floor of Renjuns room “Didn’t we tell you to lay off the online shopping?” Ten whispers back “And why are we whispering?”
“They’re not mine!” Renjun says louder “Well one of them is… the other one is sort of.. Jeno’s?”
“Oh it’s not a big deal, front desk always get our packages mixed up with theirs. They’re coming over in 20 anyway you can give it to him then”
“Wait, they’re coming over? Why?”
“Mark invited them over, something about a game and drinks and blah blah stupid straight men stuff. But they’re ordering the food so I guess I’m in, and you are too I’m not sitting through all that alone”
“Okay well I can’t give the package to Jeno and I can’t leave my room since I am now actively avoiding him because of the stupid package”
“What? Just give it to him”
“I can’t, I already opened it and it’s a….”
“It’s a…?”
“It’s a sex toy” Renjun Mumbles
“Huh? I didn’t hear you”
“It’s a SEX TOY!”
🐶🐾
Following Ten’s mental break on Renjuns behalf they both came up with a plan. Not a great plan, but it’s a plan.
‘The plan’ you may ask?- While everyone’s watching the game Ten takes the keys from Doyoungs (Jeno’s roommate) pocket, hands it to Renjun, and Renjun sneaks into their apartment and safely places the box in Jeno’s room. The plan is foolproof.
Except for the fact that Doyoung stays back at their apartment due to food poisoning.
“Yeah he’s not feeling too good, just laying on the couch spilling his guts up and feeling sorry for himself” Jaemin (Jeno’s other roommate) relays.
“Well someone should check on him, I can go” Ten says, taking any chance to spend alone time with his crush, even if it means nursing him back to good health.
“No way, he told us to ‘get the hell out of here’ and he definitely wouldn’t want to see you while he’s in that state” Jaemin reacts, quickly moving to block the front door to save some of his roommates dignity.
Okay… mission abort, Renjun thinks. Well, what now? No way they can finesse the keys out of Jaemins pockets, he’s way too quick witted for that. Doyoung was easy, all Ten had to do was flirt and touch his way in until the latter was stuttering mess and Bam. We would’ve had the keys. And Jeno? Yeah there’s no way is Renjun getting that close to him after all that’s conspired the past few hours.
🐶🐾
So now the game has started. In addition, Renjun has somehow used up all of her luck for the day (not that she thinks she had any to begin with); Currently finding herself seated on one of their two couches, next to a Jeno who can barely look in her direction, let alone make eye contact with her.
All she can think to do at this point is drink her embarrassment away and build up some courage to act normal so nobody else notices how awkward they’re both being. Well, nobody else apart from Ten who’s giving her a very sympathetic look- seated in the armchair across the coffee table.
This is not how she was anticipating her Friday night would pan out. Renjun had it all planned out- a quiet night alone with a bubble bath, candles, the new chapters of her current favourite manhwa and then her new toy.
But nope. She’s currently on her second cranberry vodka, and god who made this thing? Clearly someones trying to give everyone in the loft alcohol poisoning so they can join Doyoung in his sorrows. But you know what? Right now Renjun needs this. Not the alcohol poisoning, of course, but the intoxication? Yes.
One more vodka cranberry later and a game of ‘who’s most likely to’ during half time and Yep. Renjun is now seeing everything in slow motion. Also, what the heck was she even embarrassed about earlier? She can just give the box to Jeno and get this whole ordeal over and done with! This is Definitely not the alcohol speaking.
“I’m gonna get some water” Jeno says which snaps Renjun out of her train of thought.
“Me too need water” she mumbles nearly a whole minute later wobbling up to get on her two feet.
“Injunnieee get me some water tooooo pleaseeee” she hears Haechan slur from the couch.
“Mhmm” Renjun responds waving her hand as her feet patter into the kitchen.
🐶🐾
Renjun quickly downs her glass of water in the kitchen as she realises she needs to act quick, before Jeno goes back to the living room.
“-J-Jeno wait” she urges.
Renjun looks down to see that she’s grabbed his arm and the younger looks real confused.
“You.. uh you okay?” He asks softly.
“Please come to my room, I mean.. It’s not weird, um, kinda? I need to show you something, It’s important” What the fuck? Renjun thinks as soon as that word vomit left her mouth.
“Um o-okay.. I mean, wont the guys see? and ask what it’s about?” Jeno asks his drunk flush suddenly looking even deeper.
“They’re already sucked into the second half of that stupid game, a house fire wouldn’t distract them.”
🐶🐾
Just as expected nobody noticed the two crossing the main room to get to Renjuns. Well, everyone apart from Ten.
Renjun shuts her door and locks it (for safety reasons, obviously).
“So uh, what’s this about?” Jeno asks quietly as if he isn’t seeing that box with the pink star from this morning flashing into the forefront of his mind.
“Sit.” is all Renjun says pointing to her bed.
Jeno sits.
Renjun silently reaches under her bed to retrieve one of the boxes with the pink star; checking inside before she picks it up, she wouldn’t want to give Jeno the wrong box and make the situation infinitely worse.
“Okay, um.. this is yours. I kinda sort of thought it was mine this morning because I ordered from the same place and I kinda soft of opened it.. sorry” Renjun confesses, trying real hard to maintain eye contact. Look, they’re both adults here and Renjun should be confident in her sexuality, nearly everyone has sex okay! This shouldn’t be as embarrassing as she was making it out to be 2 hours ago. So she decided she’s using her last drop of intoxicated confidence right now.
She hands the open box to Jeno whos still sitting on the bed looking like… he just saw a ghost?
“Wait” Renjun says hurriedly taking the box back “Unless.. unless this isn’t yours and I completely misunderstood you this morning? You know what I’m drunk, maybe I made that up in my head, um please ignore everything that just happened” she pleads, the whole pep talk she just had in her head going completely out the window.
Jeno silently takes the box back into his hands, then taking the collar out & getting a good look at it. “No you were right, this is mine” he finally responds, looking up at Renjun.
“Oh, it’s for you? Oh or for the person you’re seeing?” Fuck, Renjun why would you ask that? She thinks to herself “Wait, sorry that’s actually non of my business, If it makes you feel better or makes this any less awkward here look-” Renjun quickly crawls down to get the other box from under her bed “-look this is what I got!” she says holding her new toy out as she gets up. The damn thing still sealed in it’s packaging with ‘CLIT KISSER!” slapped on the front of the box in hot pink.
Jeno’s eyes widen & he tries to look anywhere that’s not the girl in front of him. “Renjun it’s fine, it’s for me and I’m not- I’m not seeing anyone I kinda just got it for myself on a whim” Jeno says, redder than ever and the sex toy Renjun’s sticking in his face is probably not helping.
Renjun finally puts her hand down. “Well I think it suits you, puppy? Did you get that customised? It’s cute.” She has no idea where this last burst of confidence is coming from but shes got nothing to loose at this point, right?
“Really? You don’t think I’m some weird pervert now?” Jeno looks up. God, he does look really cute right now, just like a puppy, Renjun thinks.
“No I do, but I’m also a weird pervert so it’s okay” Renjun teases, finally getting a smile out of the other. God, if Renjun said her heart didn’t beat a little faster every time she saw that eye smile she’d really be lying.
“Can I ask you something”
“Look”
They both say at the same time
“You go first, please” Jeno pleads, eyes slightly widening
“I’ve got a bit of experience with this so.. what I’m trying to say is if you need someone to help you with this I’m here”
“You mean if I need to ask you for advice?”
“That too but more like.. if you need a dom? If that’s even what you’re looking for.. Unless you’re not interested, no hard feeli-“
“No I would love that!” Jeno interrupts before Renjun can finish. And, that might just be the quickest she’s ever heard him talk? “I mean, yeah that would be nice”
“That’s great, that’s good” Renjun says as she smiles to herself “Just um, give me your number, we can talk details and everything later, you know, when we’re not drunk” Renjun babbles as she retrieves her phone off the night stand and hands it over.
🐶🐾
“What the fuck were you two doing in there?” Is what Renjun and Jeno hear as they both leave her room. Haechan looking at them both with slight disgust in his face.
“Shoes. Front desk accidentally gave me Jenos sneakers” Renjun responds pointing to the shoe box in Jenos hands. And don’t think she didn’t catch Ten trying to keep a straight face. Honestly, she doesn’t blame him, the whole day has been utterly ridiculous.
But now Renjun is closer to living the fantasy she may or may not have been thinking about nearly every night since she met Jeno, with a toy or her own hand keeping her company. So perhaps the absurdity of the past few hours have very well been worth it.
