Summary
Seonghwa has been in love with Hongjoong since they were in high school. But before he got the chance to confess his deep rooted feelings for his best friend, he discovers that Hongjoong has spontaneously moved away without as much as a good bye.
Eight years with no word or sign from the boy that disappeared like a ghost, they're reunited at college when Hongjoong starts attending the same university as Seonghwa. He's momentarily filled with rage, unable to escape his past that he fought so hard to move on from when Hongjoong begins sharing the same friend group as him.
Now he's stuck seeing his face everyday in places he never thought was possible. He wants to confront him and demand an explanation; but the answers he seek will remain locked away in the darkest corners of Hongjoong's mind no matter how many times they end up in the same bed.
Those old feelings that Seonghwa thought were long gone have resurfaced and now he can't escape. If the only way he can get close enough to understanding Hongjoong meant giving up his body, then he was willing to do something so detrimental to his sanity; even if it ended up driving a knife straight through his lungs.

Summary
Park Seonghwa is a paramedic in the less privileged part of the city. He takes his job very seriously, and he spends most of his time alone. When an ambulance call leads him to a wounded gang leader, he treats the man with kindness and gentle hands despite his reputation. Against his better judgment, he finds himself continually entangled with the gang, and its leader most of all.
Park Seonghwa has always lived by the book. It’s the only way to stay alive.
Kim Hongjoong is the leader of the most notorious gang in the area. He shares his true name with no one, and he never allows others to touch him unless he intends to kill them anyway. The inner circle of his gang is the only exception. But when a certain paramedic takes care of him, Hongjoong chooses to break all of his own rules just to know him.
Kim Hongjoong has always been ruthless. It’s the only way to stay alive.

Summary
Jihoon definitely looks like one of those artsy, exhaustively cultured types; prim and pretty and hella pretentious, who’s only resigned himself to a retail job cause selling his art prints on TikTok shop didn’t pan out, and the bank of Mom and Dad wasn’t willing to bank roll his granola lifestyle anymore.
Seungcheol knows the type well, sees about a dozen of them roll through the store every year.
He’s ready to bet good money Jihoon’s going to call in sick at least twice before end of the month, throw a fit when his application for time-off over the Christmas period gets rejected (but then take the time-off anyway), and then resign dramatically after his first bad performance review, refuse to work his notice period, only to storm back in a month later, furious that they’re not willing to provide him with a glowing reference.
At least, that’s what the last three guys who worked the customer service desk did. But hey—maybe this time it will be different.

Summary
In steps what must be the teacher’s assistant, Euijoo. Nicholas looks at him, looks away, and then immediately looks back, this time with intent. Euijoo’s taller than Nicholas would have expected, and moves with the grace of a puppy that has grown into his limbs overnight and still can’t quite decide on where to put all of them, bumping into the lectern as he walks towards the professor. His hair is styled into a quite frankly atrocious bowl cut, and tapioca pearl eyes peer into the class from behind rectangular, thick-rimmed glasses, giving him the air of a vaguely confused goldfish. Most of the lines of his body are hidden below the chunkiest sweater vest despite the already pleasant weather, and to top it off, he is wearing chinos.
Nicholas doesn’t think he’s ever wanted anyone more.
or: Perpetually tired fashion design student Nicholas does not think there is anything worse than the Statistics class he is forced to attend if he wants to graduate. In walks Byun Euijoo, the teacher’s assistant, who is nerdy, awkward, and quite possibly the man of Nicholas’ dreams.

Summary
Harua looks at Nicholas, then grins, his head tilting to the side. He even flutters his eyelashes a little bit, going for his most innocent look. “Wouldn’t you say it kind of looks like Euijoo-hyung?”
“Oh, um, what?” stutters Nicholas, intelligent. He goes beet red between one second and the next.
or: Unbeknownst to either Euijoo or Nicholas, the maknaes have made a bet.

Summary
”Hyung,” Hongjoong mumbles into his comforter. He's probably getting drool all over it. Seonghwa hums in response, prompting Hongjoong to continue. "You'd make someone really happy, y'know? If you were in one of those silly rom-coms you like to watch, you would be the hot one who helps the disaster guy get his life back together."
"You're saying that I'm the hot one?" Seonghwa clarifies. Hongjoong almost wants to say no, because right now, there's a sliver of moonlight shining across Seonghwa's face and he doesn't look hot—he looks beautiful. The pale light brings out the silvery colour Seonghwa had dyed his hair last month and it contrasts so beautifully against his tanned skin.
"Yeah," Hongjoong says around a lump in his throat. He doesn't mean to blurt out his next words. "And I'm the disaster."
Hongjoong has always been afraid of flying too close to the sun.
But the stars don’t burn him in the same way.

Summary
Daeyoung doesn’t really remember how it all started—his sleep-deprived brain is too foggy for that. He just knows his old roommate sucked, and Riku doesn’t. Riku is nice, affectionate, and somehow always there—letting him nap on their couch, covering him with a blanket, pressing soft kisses to his forehead when he's asleep.
Even though, Daeyoung would prefer if those happened while he’s awake, too. And, maybe not only on his forehead. Wait, what? Yeah—He definitely needs more sleep.Bookmarked by mothtael

Summary
Suddenly he feels 14 all over again. Laying back first on a concrete floor instead of a mat. His heart is thumping wildly through his chest like someone is beating against a drum set with intention to destroy it completely. Funnily enough all he thinks in that moment is about all the times he fought in the underground and how they were easier than this. A cut to the side, a broken nose, a sprained wrist. Those were all better than this.
Only because back then, he had nothing to lose.

Summary
“Come on,” Hongjoong mumbled, forehead still pressed on his desk as tried to gain an ounce of courage. “It’s just Park Seonghwa.”
He straightened up in his chair, breathing in and chest puffing out with fake confidence
It’s just Park Seonghwa, the cute guy you’ve had a crush on since first year of college but never had the guts to ask out or address more than four words in a row, and who’s now going to see you in all your unwashed emo hermit splendor.
By the time Hongjoong had finished his mental lament, he was yet again bent over his desk, forehead back to its uncomfortable spot. He groaned.
Or,
5 times Hongjoong tried to ask his crush Seonghwa to the Enchantment Under the Sea dance, and 1 time it… worked?- Language:

Summary
Soonyoung remembers meeting Jihoon. He could sing, he could dance, he was one of the most impressive trainees already with the company, and he was Gifted—something that was practically unheard of among people who were under eighteen. Gifts would never be commonplace, but so many years after The Awakening there were more and more people being born without them, to the point that one day the number of un-Gifted individuals would vastly outnumber those with powers, Soonyoung had read.
But Lee Jihoon, with his small stature and beautiful, girlish face, was Gifted. He was a truth-teller—someone to whom you could never lie. So when Soonyoung falls to his knees in the middle of ‘THE IDEAL CUT – FINAL SCENE’ IN SEOUL, arm burning on account of old, familiar injuries and brain screaming under the assault of completely new ailments, Jihoon is the one who Soonyoung reaches for right before he blacks out.

There’s no excuse he can give them that will make them understand, not unless he admits this whole relationship is a sham.
