Summary
It was still cold when they met for the first time. It was nearly spring but not quite, it was still bitterly cold, and no flowers had bloomed on his street yet. However, her intrusion into his life felt very much like spring itself. Like a new beginning. Like something beautiful that he never thought he was allowed to have.
Or,
Chi-yeol and Haeng-seon meet twelve years before the events of canon in Crash Course in Romance; and how it changes everything.

Summary
“Tell him to stay,” is what he manages instead.
Felice stops her anxious fumblings for a moment and stills, looking at Simon like he had just grown 6 heads. “What?”
Simon finally escapes the knot present in his throat, pushing it down and letting it escape. “Tell him to stay.” He says more evenly, even though he can barely even recognise the sound of his own voice. “I want him here.”
or: it's been four years since they last saw each other and simon sings the song that he wrote for wilhelm and wilhelm listens.

Summary
That night, Kojiro also wrote his first letter, not knowing if what he felt was true logically. But his heart ached, and his head felt too heavy anyways. And so he wrote, with his horribly enormous and block handwriting:
"I am overconsumed with the thoughts of you. Please like me back, Kaoru. Even if it's a lie."
(or alternatively)
kojiro and kaoru's love story told through kojiro's perspective. there's fluff, angst, indulgent arcs and so so much yearning.

Summary
Adora smiled widely as she stepped away from the animals and held Catra’s hand as they made the short walk back to their apartment. “I almost got to you then.”
Catra laughed; the same laugh that Adora fell in love with; all beautiful and high-pitched and melodious. “You’re such an idiot.”
-
a story about young adults catradora in love. beware: fluff, sappiness and an acoustic guitar lay beyond.

Summary
Shrugging one shoulder far more casually than he possibly feels, Ilya says, “I like both. Is secret, okay?”
“Okay,” Hollander says, voice cracking.
He doesn’t say anything else. The air’s so heavy around them that it feels like being in the middle of a scrum, the weight and heat of all those bodies pressing down on you. Danger always feels like hockey; it’s the most dangerous thing Ilya knows, except for this. Everything dangerous in his life involves men’s bodies and just how close he can get to them. Closer than he probably should.
A year after mysteriously dropping out of the 2009 draft, Shane Hollander is signed by the Boston Raiders, right behind Ilya Rozanov. Having the two biggest stars in the league on the same line is great for Boston — but playing alongside their worst rival was never exactly in Shane or Ilya's plans. Especially not when staying away from each other starts to feel just as impossible as getting along.
