Word count: 1.8K
Song: NEFFEX - Badass

Taeyong chugged the drink in his hand and leaned back. The music in the club was at full blast and he could feel the vibrations going through his body. With the mix of alcohol that provided warmth, it wasn't an unpleasant feeling at all. He needed to unwind that night and currently, that was going just as it should.

Good drinks, great music, and even better company. The company being nonother then his lovely girlfriend Iseul.

With a small smirk gracing his lips he turned towards her. Iseul was wearing a tight leather outfit, her top part barely covering any skin. Taeyong had to admit she looked especially badass that night. Her long black hair ironed, purple lenses accompanied by sharp winged eyeliner and dark lipstick turned Taeyong on in all the right ways she wanted.
It was obvious she was seducing him at that moment, she was grinning at him, showing off her pearl white teeth and giving him the look that was basically undressing him right then and there. She leaned in closer, her hand wandering down his thigh.

"Baby, you're being bad again," he told her in a teasing manner, not really minding her actions.

Her hand wandered further, and she playfully licked his earlobe. "When have I ever been a good girl?" she whispered into his ear. Taehyung chuckled at that. "Oh, you could have been a good girl."

She bit his ear once and then pulled away, "Yeah, but I chose the real world instead."

Taeyong smiled at that and tried to kiss her. But, being the minx she was, Iseul turned her head in the last second and Taeyong ended up kissing her cheek. 

"You've always been a savage," he commented and grabbed to bottle to pour himself another cup while she beamed at his words.

"You love it anyways," she shrugged and rested her head on his shoulder, innocently blinking at him.

"You know I've become a fan, girl," he took another sip of his drink. In one swift movement, Iseul climbed on his lap and crashed her lips onto his. Taeyong replied to the kiss with no hesitation and they made out until the taste of vodka on his tongue was gone. "I know you like it," she breathed out once they pulled away and she caught her breath. Taeyong pulled her into a hug and they rested for a few minutes like that, just enjoying the peace and quiet. Well, it was far from quiet, the club was one of the loudest places you could stumble upon but that's what they liked and what calmed them down. All the noises were comforting and distracting and kept them grounded in reality. Dead quiet would mean something went very wrong.

Taeyong fondly observed Iseul as she rested her head on his thigh and absentmindedly scrolled through Instagram on her phone. They were both spread out with no care like they owned the place — because they actually did.

"Hey, look!"

Iseul suddenly shoved her phone into his face. It was just her lock screen, with the picture of them kissing. "Uhm, what exactly am I looking at?" he questioned her carefully. "The time, obviously," she rolled her eyes. Taeyong checked the time. It read 00:00.

"Oh wow, it's already midnight."

"A new day," Iseul nodded.

"I'm guessing you have just the best idea how to start it then?"

She smirked at his question. "Ah, you know me so well."

"So?" he inquired. 

"Head out on the road?"

"Let's go!" he agreed right away. "Where to?"

"I don't really care, let's just do whatever we want."

"Imma take you everywhere and back, baby," he promised and gave her another quick but sweet kiss.

"Great, just wait for me to go freshen up for a second then, babe." 

"Sure, I'll wait near the bar," he told her and she quickly pecked him and then was already halfway to the bathroom.

Taeyong decided to check which one of his members was at the bar that evening and see if everything was going smoothly. Being the leader of the mafia was an all-time job after all.

"Hey, Yangyang."

The younger gave a small bow and smiled at him, "Hi, boss."

"Everything going smoothly?"

"For now. I've seen some suspicious people but they haven't done anything yet so they might not be looking for trouble."

Taeyong tightly pressed his lips once he heard that. His eyes scanned the club trying to figure out who those people Yangyang was talking about were. Yangyang had great intuition and Taeyong trusted him to notice suspicious people despite the younger maybe not knowing all their rivals, enemies or possible threats.

But it didn't take him long 'till he found just who Yangyang was referring to. Glass shattered in one part of the club, near the toilets.

Taeyong's head spun in that direction. He heard a familiar scream.

"Iseul!"

He ran through the crowd until he reached the scene. He easily detected two men who were causing the scene. And judging by the rest of the situation they were also assaulting his girlfriend.

One of them was tightly gripping her upper arm while she tried to squirm out of his grasp, and the other was starring at the broken bottle of champagne on the ground.

"Let me go you pathetic piece of shit!" Iseul yelled at the one holding her.

"Bitch, who are you talking to like that? I gave you a compliment, you should appreciate it."

"I do not care, let go of me!"

Taeyong stepped up and put his hand on the guy's shoulder. "Let her go," he said quietly, voice dangerously low. He tightened his grip but the man still didn't let go of Iseul. Taeyong saw him open his mouth like he was going to say something, probably some sarky remark or something. But Taeyong didn't give two shits about what the dude was gonna say. Before the guy could say whatever idiot thing he was going to say, Taeyong punched him square in the face.

The men fell on the floor with a loud thud that was even louder with the music paused and the whole club watching the scene unfold in silence.

The man on the floor groaned and Iseul smirked at the sight of his teary eyes. "Serves you right!" She kicked him in the stomach causing more painful yelps from the man.

"Shit man!" The dude's friend finally got involved. "Who the fuck do you think you are? Control your bitch of a girlfriend maybe, don't let her dress like such a hoe!"

Taeyong was not at all amused by the other dude. The man was clearly trying to be imitating. He was taller and buffer then Taeyong but he was stupid to underestimate Taeyong.

"The fuck did you just say?"

"Seriously, why are you even with this bitch boy?" The man spoke to Iseul again. "You need a real man, not this twink." Iseul stared at him with her face frozen. She was utterly disgusted but she wanted to see just how far this idiot would go. Her eyes were shooting daggers at him but the man was either too stupid to understand or just way too egotistic.

"I am fucking with the man."

The man arrogantly smirked, "Well, with that body you could be fucking this man," he pointed at himself.

Iseul turned away, gagging. "Ew no, no way, fuck yourself!"

"Yeah that would be enough of that," Taeyong came in between the two of them, hiding Iseul's figure behind his body. "You should walk away while you can."

"Oh, and if I don't'?" the man taunted.

Taeyong titled his head, a deadly spark in his eyes. "Look around," he simply said.

The man's eyes twitched and he hesitated for a second before obeying and looking around the club.

Taeyong grinned widely while Iseul sneaked her arms around his waist and rested her chin on his shoulder and they watched the man go pale. At least seven guns were pointed at him from all sides. He visibly gulped while scanning the upper floor and seeing even more guns in his direction. "I'm guessing you don't know yet despite the fact that you harassed my girlfriend so I'll kindly introduce myself. I'm Lee Taeyong, the owner of this very club."

The man's gaze instantly snapped back at him. "Y-you— NCT—"

"Ah, so you know that. Yes, I'm the leader of NCT, and you just blatantly disrespected me and insulted my girlfriend. I trust that you won't repeat that." The man stayed speechless as Taeyong looked behind him and motioned to some of his men. "Guys, please teach them a lesson. Be sure they don't forget it. I have a date I must go on."

"Yes, boss."

Taeyong turned around and pulled Iseul in a side hug. "Let's go, love," he smiled at her and she pecked the corner of his mouth.

The music started again as they walked out, not once glancing at the two men that were being dragged away.

The wind blew through Iseul's hair and she threw her hands in the air enjoying the ride form the shotgun.

"Woooooo!" she shouted ecstatically and Taeyong stepped on the gas and speed up.

Some time later they finally stopped next to some cliff with a great view of the night sky and the city in the distance. The couple got comfortable in the back seat.

Taeyong caressed her face. "You're so fucking beautiful."

She chuckled, "You're not so bad yourself."

It was quiet for some time, the two just basking in each other's touch and company.

"Do you still like all of this? The rush of this life, the terrible people, the violence—"

"Taeyong," she stopped him. "I never had a doubt. And I never will. I don't care what other people say or think, I love you and I love all of this. And the fact that I do like it might mean I got issues or something but I don't really care. We're living our life right." She kissed him passionately. Her hands reached under his shirt and he moaned loudly. "Fuuuck, baby, I just got this car," he whimpered. She started moving her hips against him. "'Bout time we mark it as ours, don't ya think?" she grinned at him. He sighed, "How can I ever argue with that?" And so he crashed his lips against hers and pulled her body closer to his.

They both felt amazing at that moment. They really had a perfect life, they were really alive, they were in control of their lives.

Later, while the hot sun shined trough their window and Iseul was fixing her crop top, Taeyong grabbed his leather jacket from the front seat and took a small box out of its pocket.

"Iseul," he started.

"Hm?" She turned towards him.

"I know you love to travel all around. And I love traveling with you. So, I hope you say yes to always going to new places and staying by my side."

Iseul's eyes watered as he presented the red velvet box and opened it, revealing the biggest diamond ring she has ever seen. 

"Taeyong!" she cried out. "I could never leave you!"

"Is that a yes?"

"Of course that's a yes, now put the ring on me," she shoved her palm into his chest and he obeyed, laughing at her antics.

"You're stuck with me now," he told her after he put the ring on her finger, "you can never look back or go back."

"I won't ever need to, as long as you don't slow down."

"We'll never slow down, we're living life like a badass."
