AN: Chapter 1
Hi everyone! So this is my first Yona of the Dawn fanfic! I'm so excited because I love the manga/show and have been wanting to do a short story or one shot for quite some time now. I finally came up with something so hopefully I can do it justice.
Just a few things I wanted to say here before you all start reading:
Please excuse any mistakes I may have missed—I literally wrote this whole thing in a day, so my eyes are always skipping over things because I've been staring at the screen for too long lol
This is an AU, modern time
The other characters included in this story are: Shin-ha, Kija, Jae-ha. (not sure if I'm going to include Zeno or Yoon just yet… maybe in later chapters…?)
Yona and Soo-Won are NOT cousins in this story! ( VERY IMPORTANT) for what I have planned for this story, they are not related.
"Dragons" don't have powers
There WILL BE SMUT! Later chapters, sorry, but forewarning everyone now just so you're not surprised later
Some violence and other possible sexual things….
This is my very first Yona fic so please keep in mind, I try to keep the characters somewhat in character, but I like to also sometimes put my own twist on them so please don't tell me they aren't supposed to act that way or they have to be a certain way… remember is AU. :)
I don't own anything!
So that's about it, I hope you all will enjoy the story and continue to read it as I post up the chapters. I'm currently working on 3 ½ other stories, all Fairy Tail fics, so if you are a Fairy Tail fan, mainly Gajevy or LoLu, please go check out my other works! On that same note, since I'm working on so many other stories, I don't always have time to work on ones I say I'm going to get done. I would like to be able to post up one chapter a week for a story, but sometimes, with my job, it's hard to do. But we'll see! I've been in a funk lately and I think this is exactly what I need. Sorta. Lol anyways! Enough gabbing from me! Enjoy the story!
Long crimson hair swayed lightly in the springs breeze as violet eyes looked at the new college the young girl was about to start. Yona grinned from ear to ear as she jumped up and down excitedly like a small child in a candy store. "I can't believe I'm really here! Oh I just can't wait to see Soo-Won and the others!" She said as she started for the stairs in front of the large academy. Her feet stopped in place on one of the steps as her father spoke to the excited girl.
"Yona, dear, you do know I'm not paying for you to come here just to see your friends, right?" He said as he slowly made his way up to the same set of stairs Yona had stopped on. The crimson haired girl frowned as her lips pressed together in a pout. A hand came up to her red hair and began to twirl a small amount around her fingers.
"Father… you know the main reason why I wanted to come here was because of Soo-Won! I can't help that I'm so excited to see him and be here!" She protested as her father passed her on the stairs. Yona noticed his silence as he passed her, his eyes closed softly as his hands rested gently behind his back. She never understood why he was always such a quiet man. Her whole life, she had known her father to have a bubbly, quiet, and kind personality. She had never known another man to have such a calming personality like her fathers. Well, Soo-Won had come pretty close to what her father was like.
She had never seen him upset and he had always been so kind to her with his bubbly self ever since they were kids. He was just a year older than her and was attending Ik-Soo Academy. He often spoke of this college was constantly urging Yona to join the school once she graduated. The academy was well known, and full of very prosperous students who only were accepted because of either their parent's fortune or their outstanding intelligence. Lucky for Yona, she had both. It was easy for her to get into this college thanks to her father's wealth and her academic achievements from her high school.
The young girl ran up the stairs to catch up with her father. "Father… can I go take a look around the campus while you set everything up with my advisor?" She asked sweetly, giving her father a sweet and innocent smile.
The short, dark haired man let out a sigh as he looked at his own daughter. She was so used to getting her way all the time. 'I suppose it's my fault. Having your mother die at such a young age and spoiling you rotten you're entire life has made you into what you have become... still… she is a good girl. She's just very good at getting what she wants… especially when she pulls that smile on me.' Her father let out a soft sigh as he smiled. "Yes, just make sure you aren't long dear. We still need to—"
The dark haired man watched crimson hair spin quickly in the opposite direction as the girl ran off, waving her hand as she spoke quickly. "Just text me when you need me! I promise I won't be long! I want to go see Soo-Won!"
Her father sighed once more as he shook his head. "That young girl better get her act together… I won't always be around forever and she should really be doing this with me so she knows what to do for her next semester." The short man turned and started back in the direction of the large building up ahead. "I know I'm not going to want to travel all the way down to the academy just to set up her classes for her."
Violet eyes were wide as Yona looked around the campus for the first time. She knew it was big, but she didn't realize just how big it really was. All she had known was that it had buildings for every major they offered, and only one for general classes that were sometimes required by the students to take. Yona admired the old buildings and the green scenery around her. She could smell the sweet aroma of the spring trees planted around her that have been stationary for many years now. Baked apples. That's the scent they were giving off. She closed her eyes as she walked through the small park-like area in the middle of the whole campus. They wanted to make a decent sized space for students to go to during most seasons throughout the year. The dean of the college thought it would be a good idea to put in a park-like area to give the illusion that students weren't actually at school when they needed someplace to go to destress and unwind.
The tall, and leafy trees planted all around were lively with caroling birds hiding in their mint-green leaves, with promise of new life beginning to hatch in their nests. The trees provided an abundance of shade, but also allowed the sun to peak through their leaves as the wind swayed them back and forth gently. Scattered all around were sectional benches for all to sit upon along with tall light posts strategically placed throughout the area.
Yona couldn't believe how beautiful this place was already. 'This is just a small fraction of the school! I can't wait to go check out more of this place!' The young girl turned as she walked backwards, her violet eyes staring up at the green leaves above her, completely oblivious of her surroundings as she distracted herself. Her backward steps suddenly stopped as she bumped into something. "Oof!" She could hear a short groan from a man behind her as she quickly turned on her heels.
The man was bent over as he picked up his books he had dropped when Yona had bumped into him. As he rose, the young girl looked him over carefully. He was tall, like the trees around her, with messy black hair on top of his head. His bangs hung below his sharp blue eyes, even after he stood up completely straight. She noticed he had a well-built frame as he wore a fitting dark purple shirt and a light royal blue hoodie. His loose fitting pants were black, matching his dark and heavy looking boots on his feet. As the crimson haired girl was staring at the tall man from head to toe, she hardly noticed him speaking to her until he snapped his fingers in front of her face.
"Hey!" The tall man said sternly as he snapped his fingers again.
Yona shook her head slightly as she looked up into the sharp blue eyes staring down at her with annoyance. She smiled as she rubbed the back of her head in embarrassment "Oh! I guess I wasn't—"
Before the girl could finish her sentence, the man spoke quickly as he walked past her. "You should really pay attention to where you're going next time. And saying you're sorry wouldn't kill ya either."
Yona scoffed as she made a fist with her hand. "Seriously?! You didn't even let me finish! Rude jerk!" The young girl shut her eyes tightly as she stuck out her tongue towards the man walking away from her, unaffected by her remark.
"Hey Yona, I see you finally made it here." A soft voice said. Yona gasped as a soft blush came over her cheeks. She knew the man whom the voice belonged to. She turned to the side with eyes open wide and a smile across her lips as she looked upon the tall man making his way up to her. A sweet smile graced his feminine face as his bright sea green eyes showered her with all of the man's attention. Yona's cheeks flushed further as she noticed his dark blonde hair had grown last she had seen him, making him look even more attractive in her eyes. His bangs, which had also grown in length, were parted in half, gracing each side of his face. He looked much cleaner and sharper than the man who rudely spoke to her moments ago. He was wearing a simple white t-shirt with a light purple vest and light blue jeans with tan sandals. His hand was holding onto a single strap on his backpack as he waved his other hand at the girl.
She giggled as she closed the distance between them. "Soo-Won." She said softly.
The tall man smiled as he spoke. "So have you set up all your classes yet and found your dorm room?"
Yona moved her hands to her back, interlocking her fingers together as Soo-Won gestured her to follow him down the path he was taking to his next class. "No, my father is taking care of all of that for me now. I wanted to take a look at the campus on my own…" Red cheeks began to match the girls crimson hair as she looked down at her feet as she walked. "I was hoping to run into you…"
Soo-Won let out a small laugh. "Well that's the fastest way to get yourself lost around here, Yona! You should have texted Kija or Jae-ha. I do believe they are free during this time. And I'm sure they would have loved to show you around too!" He said heartedly.
Yona's blush disappeared at Soo-Won's obliviousness. 'But I wanted you to show me around! I know I could have contacted the others, but in truth…' Violet eyes glanced over at the tall man as he continued to speak. 'I just wanted to spend some time alone with you Soo-Won….'
As the dark blonde haired man pointed out the different buildings to Yona as they walked, he was unaware that the girl wasn't listening to a word he was saying. Violet eyes were glued to the man's face the entire time he spoke, admiring how handsome he was and how much he had matured. They had known each other since they were kids and always spoke about going to the same schools as one another. Yona was the more determined one about going to the same educational school as her friend, thus why she had worked so hard to keep her grades up to attend Ik-Soo Academy in case something had happened to her father's immense wealth.
The crimson haired girl unknowingly let out a soft sigh as she watched Soo-Won. The taller man heard this and stopped speaking to glance over at Yona. A soft blush crossed over his cheeks as he saw her silently admiring him. He looked away quickly and smiled, hoping she didn't happen to see his slight blush. "Yona, have you even heard one word of what I was just saying? Or have you just been staring at me this whole time we've been walking?"
Yona forced her glued eyes away from Soo-Won after he spoke. "I-I was listening! Can't a girl look at you while you speak?! My father taught me it was important to be looking at the person speaking to you so you can retain what they are talking about."
Soo-Won laughed lightly as his free hand moved to the back of his head as he closed his eyes lightly. "Well… as true as that is… I still don't think you were listening to a word I was saying. There's a difference in appearance when someone is listening versus one who is just daydreaming."
Yona's cheeks turned a dark shade of red as she hung her head as they walked. "I'm sorry…." She suddenly gasped as she felt a warm hand on her head, rubbing her crimson hair lightly.
"I'll forgive you this time." Soo-Won said warmly. The young girl couldn't help but smile at his warm sounding words.
'Soo-Won… even if you don't realize how I feel about you just yet, you always seem to know how to read me.' The crimson haired girl thought as they came to a stop. She looked up at her friend as he looked ahead to a nearby building.
"Well, I've gotta get to my next class. Will you text me later when you get your dorm room number? I'll get the guys together and we'll celebrate your first night here. Sound good?" He said with a smile and soft sea green eyes.
Yona's expression brightened as she quickly nodded her head. "Yeah! That sounds great!"
"Great." Soo-Won started as he heading to the building he needed to go to. "I'll see you later then!"
Yona watched the dark blonde haired man disappear into the building before letting out a soft sigh. Her hand went over her heart that was practically beating out of her own chest. 'I feel like it's about to burst out of my chest this time…' Yona giggled as she thought about how good Soo-Won looked once more. Both of her hands reached up to her blushing cheeks. 'Soo-Won….' A sudden tone went off in her pocket, snapping the girl out of her own mind. She reached down and pulled out her phone, seeing that her father had just sent her a message stating her classes were all set up and that he would meet her at her dorm room. "Wow that was fast! Guess I'll just go over to the dorms now!"
Soo-Won entered the large classroom and glanced around, his sea green eyes in search of another dear friend who he was going to school with. A wide smile graced his lips as he excitedly called out from the entrance of the room. "Hak! There you are!"
Sharp blue eyes stayed on the inked pages of his book as Hak responded to Soo-Won. "Yo. Took you long enough to get here."
Soo-Won rushed to sit next to his dark haired friend. He laughed off Hak's words. "Yeah… sorry about that. I was walking to class when I bumped into another friend of mine from way back."
Without looking up from his book, Hak spoke with a slightly interested tone. "Huh… that's funny… because some random red haired girl bumped into me while I was heading to this class."
The dark blonde haired man stared at Hak for a long moment. "Do you mean Yona?"
"Oh, so that's her name, huh?" Hak said as he turned the page.
"Well I don't know for sure…" Soo-Won put a finger to his chin as he looked up to the ceiling to think. "How many other girls have red hair that go to this school?"
Hak sighed. "Just tell me what she was wearing and I'll tell you if it was the same girl or not."
Soo-Won closed his eyes happily. "Ok! Well, she's a cute, short girl with long, wavy, crimson red hair and beautiful violet eyes. She was wearing a light pink shirt that covered her shoulders, but was low cut in the middle and the fabric looked quite frilly at the ends to me. She was also wearing light blue jeans to match!"
Hak closed his book as he spoke, his arms moving back over his head as he stretched them out, his body sore from sitting in the same position for some time now. "Yeah that sounds like the rude girl that bumped into me without saying sorry or nothing."
Sea green eyes went wide as they looked back down at Hak as the stretched. "What?! Yona, rude? No… that's impossible." A soft smile graced his lips as he propped an elbow onto the table, resting his chin lightly in the palm of his hand. "She's the sweetest girl in the world… even if she does come off a bit spoiled at times."
Blue eyes focused on the man sitting next to him. "Sweet you say? Sounds like you've got a bit of a crush on her to me."
Soo-Won quickly waved his hands in front of his body. "No! I swear! It's not what you think!" He drew his hands back and poked his index fingers together. "It's just that… I've known her just about as long as I've known you… so of course I'm going to speak highly of her… I can't help myself…."
Hak half smiled at his friend beside him. "Yeah I know. I'm only teasing. You'll have to properly introduce us sometime."
Soo-Won smiled as he closed his eyes happily. "Of course! I'd love to! Oh actually!" Sea green eyes opened back up as Soo-Won held up a finger. "I'm supposed to get Kija and Jae-ha together and head over to her dorm room to help welcome her to the academy tonight! She hasn't told me which room she is getting yet, but I'm sure you can come along with us once I find out!"
'Man… I was kinda joking when I told him he'll have to introduce us sometime… and it's not like I can even lie to him, he knows I'm off from work today….' Hak tried to hide his lack of enthusiasm the best he could as he responded. "Yeah… sounds… like fun…."
Yona and her father stepped into what the academy called the dorm rooms. Their eyes went wide as they realized it was like a small apartment. The young girl quickly ran inside further to check out the spacious living area. The small hallway from the entrance led to an open living room, small dining area and table, with an open kitchen. Across the way were three doors, two of which were closed, the last led to the bathroom. There were two large windows on the wall where the living room was, overlooking the outdoor pool and gardening areas provided on campus.
The crimson haired girl was in shock of how much the college provided the dorm rooms with. "Wow… they really go all out, don't they father?"
The short man looked around with his eyebrows raised. "Seeing how much we're paying to let you go here… it's no surprise they supplied you with so much." He too was looking around the whole apartment like space, baffled by how much was already in there. The crimson haired girl ran to one of the closed doors at the opposite end from where they were standing. Her hand reached for the doorknob and attempted to turn it.
She crossed her eyebrows slightly. "That's weird… this door won't open. Father? They didn't say anything about our rooms needing locks on the bedroom doors, did they? I thought I requested a room by myself."
Her father rubbed his chin lightly. "They did assure me that you were the only one going to be in this room and they did give me a key for your bedroom… I guess they are doing this so that way if you do get a roommate, you can lock your room when you're not here." The short man smiled at his daughter. "I'm sure it's just another security measure. Here, try the key on the door." He handed her the key and watched her try to unlock the door with no luck. "Hmm… I wonder if they gave you the wrong key… I'll go have a chat with the person who gave me that."
Yona took the key back and attempted to use it on the other door a few feet away from the one she was at. To her surprise, the key turned and unlocked the second door. She gasped excitedly as she turned the knob. "Father! This key was for this door! They are probably just saving that room for a potential roommate like you said!" Yona stepped inside her empty room and let her jaw fall open. It too was spacious and already came with a bed and desk. They looked plain compared to everything that was outside of the room she had just entered into, but again, she wasn't about to complain because this was more than she had been expecting.
Her father made his way over to her and looked over the room with her. "This room doesn't look too bad either. Even has its own little balcony it seems." He turned to face his daughter as he smiled. "Are you happy with it all?"
Yona smiled sweetly at her father. "Yes! It's all perfect!"
"Good! Then I shall tell the movers to start bringing in all of your boxes. Luckily you're only on the second floor and this building has an elevator." The dark haired man said cheerfully."
Yona smiled as her father left the room. She let out a light sigh as she looked around once more. 'A spacious place to live, taking classes with Soo-Won…' The crimson haired girl walked over to her twin sized bed, throwing herself down onto the bare sheets after she turned around on her heels. 'Everything is going to be perfect. I just know it.'
Soo-Won checked his phone as they left their last class for the night. "Hmm… that's weird… Yona still hasn't told me which dorm she's in yet."
Hak rubbed the inside of his ear with his pinky finger as they walked out of the room. "Huh. Maybe she just passed out from all the work she had to do getting her room set up the way she likes."
"No, she would have at least told me she was going to bed. Maybe I should give her a call…" Soo-Won said with slight worry in his tone.
"Well, I know I've got some more boxes to unpack in my room. I haven't had much time this week thanks to my job and school. It's nice finally being in a dorm room without another person living with you." Hak said with a smile. "Finally will get some peace and quiet."
Soo-Won started to head in another direction from Hak as he brought his phone up to his ear. "I'll let you know if we're doing anything tonight Hak!" He called out as he hastily walked away.
"Yeah…" Hak let out a breath as he started to speak to himself. "Whatever man… really just wanted to unwind tonight." A large hand came up to the back of his neck, rubbing it roughly. "Works been killing me and on top of that, my instructors have graciously piled my assignments so high, it'll take me forever to get them done…." Hak closed his eyes for a second as he adjusted his books under his arm. "Just my luck I guess. Get all the instructors this semester who love watching their students suffer the first week of college."
Yona put her hands to her hips as she looked around the new living space after setting everything up the way she wanted her room to look. She smiled, pleased at herself for all the hard work she had put in for the past few hours. "Now that that's all done, I can send Soo-Won a text!" The crimson haired girl pulled out her phone and noticed she had a missed call from Soo-Won. She started typing away letting him know what room she was staying in and that she was sorry she missed his call. She was playing music softly from her iPod that she connected to the small stereo the college had provided. She bobbed her head softly to the music as she smiled, biting her bottom lip slightly as she hit the send button. She giggled as she turned on her heels.
She let out a gasp as her violet eyes went wide, matching the sharp blue ones staring back at her from the front door that Hak had just opened. The two quickly pointed a finger at each other from where they stood as they spoke in unison. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!"
Hak entered with his brows crossed furiously, slamming the door behind him as he marched right up to the red haired girl who held her arm out to stop the tall man from coming any closer to her. "What am I doing here?! This is my dorm room! How the hell did you get in here?!"
Yona's cheeks flushed as she stared back in confusion. "What do you mean this is your dorm room?! They gave me a key for this room! And so I'm setting up my room!"
Hak groaned as he brought a hand up to his face, gripping his hair tightly. "You've got to be kidding me… I specifically asked them to not give me a roommate…" Blue eyes glanced through dark bangs coldly. "And hell knows I certainly don't want some rude girl as a roommate…."
Yona scoffed at his words. "Well if anyone should leave, it's you! I've already unpacked all of my things and they gave me a key my bedroom, so don't you think for one minute your rude ass is going to stay here with me!"
Hak smirked as he held up his two keys to the girls face. "Hate to break it to ya, but I was here first. I got here early this week and set up this whole dorm room. Everything you see here is mine. And there isn't any possible way I'm going to share with you!" The dark haired man walked past Yona as he pulled out his phone to call someone to fix this situation they were now in. Before he could reach his room and dial a number, Soo-Won was calling him. He groaned once more as he answered it. "Not now Soo-Won, I've got—"
"Hak! Yona just texted me!" The dark blonde haired man said excitedly over the phone. Hak turned to face Yona as he glared at her coldly. "I'm heading to her room now! I'll text you the info!"
Hak sighed. "Don't bother… I just found out where she's at."
