Neon J x Arrogant!Male!Reader

Hello everyone, I hope you are doing well today! We have some love for the captain, who I recently learned not that long ago he is actually taller than 1010 by an inch or two, but that's not the point. The person who requested this is the lovely Kinga455! I have nothing else to say so, I hope you enjoy reading this!

NEON J's POV

------------------------------------

"Damn arrogant bastard..." I grumble, gritting my teeth until I detaching my robotic human head and swapped it for my sonar head, attaching it to my neck with a click, I took a deep breath to cool down my circuits and drumming heart.

I brush off imaginary dust off of my white jacket, fix my badges, and fluff my hood before I walk out of Barraca Mansion proudly, bidding my troops goodbye as they sang in their autotuned voices, this is one of the rare occasions that I have to leave my troops home and must trust them to be able to take care of themselves and not burn the mansion down, or do anything reckless in general. Tatiana had arranged a meeting for all of the NSR artists to come and discuss which candidate from the Lights Up Audition would take the trophy and be deemed as the new NSR artist that will join our ranks.

However, there is one person there I despise the most, and I had the unfortunate pleasure to bump into him earlier today, his music may be good and be able to impress the majority of us, but his attitude is despicable! Hell, I might actually burst out at him and put him in his place, but with how he is, as far as I know, it might only boost his ego just a bit more to have my spotlight be on him and him alone.

Let me provide you with some information; (Y/N) is a new NSR artist that had won the Lights Up Audition a couple of years ago, the genre he composes is pop, more specifically K-pop, and from what I could tell, he absolutely enjoys doing his work, he is literally grinning from ear to ear as soon as he steps upon the stage and the audience screams his name. His music has a lot of soul and feeling put into them, however, I would've applauded for this and welcomed him with open arms, if that attitude of his wasn't what made him, him. He's got talent but the person he really is is that of a person you would never want to meet and to put it simply, he's arrogant, blatantly arrogant, not so much to be narcissistic but arrogant.

I stopped myself right before I hit the doors to NSR tower, only mere inches separating me from the shiny sliding doors, the doors opened after a moment, allowing me to access the inner chambers of NSR Tower, yet I have only one destination in mind so there is no room for exploration. I let out another breath before I entered the building, my footsteps being small thumps upon the velvet carpet beneath me, I was looking down at the ground, trying to ease my mood and to avoid any possible conversation any other employee would've sprung upon me, distracting me in the process because when I start talking. I talk for a long time, and it would eventually lead me to talk about my war stories a few decades back, only for another fellow NSR artist, mostly Yinu or Eve, getting my attention so that I could get back onto the task, it never gets any less embarrassing.

I walk into the elevator about to press the button to tell the elevator to talk me to the top-most floor,

"Wait!" I heard, making me move my finger away from the button, using my opposite arm to block the doors so that they wouldn't shut on the person trying to rush into the small box, and rush they did as they nearly ran into the back of the elevator,

"Hah! Thank you!" The person said, sending me an all too familiar grin, they look at me in confusion as to why I didn't respond before a different grin appeared, a sinister, mischievous one, god damn it...

"Well, well, well! If it ain't Neon J himself and not his boyband!" He snickered, " say didn't I ram into you today?" He asked, hitting my shoulder rather harshly, the grin still plastered on his face,

"Why yes I did, although I wish I hadn't." I replied, pressing the button and moving m back to my side, hands resting on my hips as my gaze kept straight forward, the texture of the interior of the elevator allowing me to see (Y/N)'s movements, albeit warped,

"Awe come on I bet just bumping into me just made your day much better! I bet you saw a glimpse of heaven!" He boasted, head pointed upward and his (H/C) locks flowed gracefully in the nonexistent wind,

"Please it got much worse as soon as I saw your faaAaAAcE!" My sentence barely even got to exit my mouth before the elevator decided that it was going to malfunctioning, abruptly stopping all movement, including our still poses,

"Well, I guess the elevator here didn't like your judgment, haha!" (Y/N) cackled, holding his stomach and leaning forward,

"Or it could be a measly little malfunction!" I mutter to myself, my hands now gripping hard on my hips, if they weren't made of synthetic skin and actual flesh instead the knuckles would start to go white,

"Hey, hey, NJ come on don't hurt your hips like that!" He said, snaking his arms around my waist as he rested his head upon my shoulder, a smug smirk on his lips,

"NJ?" I said slowly, turning my monitor just as slow to look at him properly, 

"Cause you're Neon J? So to shorten it, it is NJ!" He cheered slipping away from me and twirling around,

"My name is already short enough as is, why make it shorter?" I question, my held in anger slipping little pieces of itself into it, a small snicker escaping (Y/N)'s mouth, 

"Just because I said so!" He said proudly, before starting to talk some more but in a language I didn't understand and obviously couldn't speak, Korean, the faces he made as he spoke the mysterious language were making me question what he was even talking about,

"Hey stop that!" I shouted at him, and for once he actually listened to me and shut his trap, staring at my face with half-lidded (E/C) eyes, a smug smile, and a cocked eyebrow,

"What?!" I shout at him once more, trying to make it seem like a threat to wipe off that current look he had on his face, but he only giggled and strode towards me, making me walk back until I was pressed against the wall of the elevator, specifically the glass wall that allowed you to see the whole city if you were high enough, and we were temporarily stuck at that satisfying spot.

He slammed his hands against the sides of my head, our small difference in height now no longer existed as we saw each other eye to eye, neither of us making a sound except for our breaths, now being close enough to each other that we could hear the other's smallest inhale and exhale. 

He leaned forward moving to the side of my monitor as if there was an ear there,

"You know you're actually pretty cute when you yell." He whispered, his voice smooth as silk unlike before, the small compliment, should it even be called that, made me flustered but thankfully my monitor didn't exactly show that, other than my prolonged silence.

He whispered something else but it was in Korean so I couldn't discern what he actually said, all I could capture was 'Salanghae' before he pushed himself away from me and hopped a few steps away only to have that bright grin to appear on his face, yet it somehow seemed to fit him more than the other versions of his grins,

"Now to annoy you some more because I personally enjoy it!" He sang, pointing at me,

"Here we go again..." I sigh before I decided to just lean on the wall and wait for people to come to get us.

Salanghae...What could that possibly even mean?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(A/N)- Now I want to clarify, I don't see any K-pop band or group as arrogant people at all, in fact, I like listening to BTS although I ain't obsessed with them, I just thought that the style would fit the reader's character more. I also wanted to have the reader speak a different language that I was familiar with, speaking of that, 'Salanghae' means 'I love you' in Korean! Anyway, thank you Kinga455 for requesting this, I had a lot of fun writing it and trying for a more rival-ish relationship between them! I hope you enjoyed reading this, and as always, everyone be safe, and have a good day/afternoon/night!
