Summary
“What were you looking at?” Jeongin asks.
Chan’s face does a thing; his nose scrunches a little and his eyebrows knit together, like he’s thinking really hard. Like he’s not sure what Jeongin’s talking about. Maybe he isn’t.
“I don’t know, what was I looking at?”
It’s not the what of it, it’s the how of it that Jeongin knows. He knows it inside out, knows the pain of it. Taking a deep breath, he gets out of his shoes too. Steps further inside and stretches his arms over his head. “I don’t know, it just… looked like an intense look.”
or, Jeongin and Chan are both in love with Felix. It brings them closer together.

“People say some of the spirits of those who died here are still stuck here.”
“Oh, god…” Hyunjin whines, and Seungmin can’t stop grinning.

Summary
“We need to fucking go. Right now.”
Hyunjin’s first instinct kicks in before he has a chance to think. “Right, so now you have time for me? You fucking ghosted me, just disappeared last night!”
“Oh, sorry, next time I’m getting beat up I’ll make sure to reschedule because I have a date,” Seungmin scoffs, grabbing Hyunjin’s arm and pulling him up from his seat.
or, Seungmin pisses off his nemesis, so he has to run away. Hyunjin tags along, because he'll always follow Seungmin around. The problem? Seungmin is leaving for good, and Hyunjin isn't supposed to leave with him, because he isn't supposed to be in love. It's just a fling after all.

This isn’t new. This isn’t unheard of. This is normal, this is temporary, and it isn’t unlike them.
Falling asleep in an empty bed without a good night text, however, is unlike them.

Summary
“What else can we supposedly do?”
Minho draws in an inhale. Leans against the table between him and the other two. “We can indulge them.”
“Indulge?” Changbin blinks.
“Make a statement where we say you two are actually dating.”
Changbin snorts. That’s simply ridiculous. He holds back the urge to burst out laughing. “Why would we do that?”
It’s Felix, not Minho who speaks up next. He huffs a laugh. A soft one. There’s an amused smile on his face when Changbin meets his eyes. “Because it’s smart. That would make both of us look good. Shut down the groupie rumors. And it’s good PR. For you, your band, and for me.”
or, after guarding his peace for years, Changbin has to step out of his comfort zone and pretend to date a vlogger to deal with a scandal. In the process, he struggles with daily life, learns a thing or two about a British scifi TV show, and tries to keep his distance—to no avail.

Summary
Pretending that your best friend is your alpha to get rid of those who bother you at work is a good idea, isn't it?
At that moment, Hyunjin thinks so.

Summary
It starts like this: a look exchanged in a bar he went to alone. Trying to forget something, trying to remember something else. A wry smile, a hand on the small of his back.
“Can I buy you a drink?”
When has Jisung ever said no to that?
A quick drive back to campus–oh, he’s a student here, too. Maybe they have classes together. Maybe that’s why he looked familiar. Or maybe everyone looks familiar after a couple cocktails.
His roommate isn’t home. They can be loud and they are.
“This stays between us, okay? I’m just…experimenting.”
Jisung has been someone’s secret before. He doesn’t know if it’s good or bad this time, but it’s something. And this guy isn’t being cruel. He knows cruel and he knows kind and the smile he’s given after he agrees to secrecy is not bad.
Maybe that’s the booze talking, but he’d much rather the booze control the conversation than for it to be left up to him. Pretty boys have a way of making Jisung stupid.
・・・
OR: what do you get when you mix college students, unrequited love, and secrets that were never meant to come to light? A big fucking mess, that’s what.

Summary
Hyunjin locks eyes with the younger, the corner of his lip lifting into something like a smirk. “I would rock your shit, Kim Seungmin.”
“Oh yeah? Prove it.”
He gently taps the side of Seungmin’s head. “Just use your imagination.”
“That’s definitely something a benchwarmer would say.”
(aka, hyunjin moves to seoul, reconnects with his childhood best friend, joins the baseball team, beefs with jisung, finds a family, and falls in love. all in that order.)

Summary
“You’re really into this stuff, huh?” Seungmin says, sounding far too entertained.
Hyunjin scoffs, flipping his hair dramatically. “Well, yeah. Space is fucking awesome. And honestly? It’s kinda fucked up how little people know about it. Like, you ever think about how the Moon is literally drifting away from Earth every year? Every year, man.” He widens his eyes. “At some point, it’s just gonna fuck off into the void.”
Seungmin hums thoughtfully, swirling his drink. “That’s terrifying.”
“Right? Like, what if one day we just look up and—bam! No more Moon. That’s some existential horror shit.”
or: hyunjin, an artist with an obsessive love for space, spends an entire night mansplaining rockets to a guy at a bar—only to later discover said guy is literally an aerospace engineer

Summary
“You think it’s a memory?” Minho asks softly.
“Yeah,” Jisung breathes. “I think it might be… my past life. I know it sounds crazy, but I can’t shake the feeling. It’s like… it’s like my brain is trying to tell me something. Like it’s showing me who I used to be.”
He braces himself for the teasing. For Minho to laugh or roll his eyes or call him dramatic. But none of that happens. Instead, Minho shifts slightly, propping himself up on one elbow so he can look down at Jisung properly.
“It doesn’t sound crazy,” Minho says simply.
Jisung blinks up at him. “It doesn’t?”
jisung starts having dreams about his past life, and minho—his perfect boyfriend—is in them too... but unfortunately not the kind of person jisung would have wished him to be.
