A Light Across the Horizon

Summary:

Jacob has never really felt as though he belonged. For the past few years since he graduated high school and moved to Korea, he had been living with his brother trying to figure out what he wants out of life. He dabbled in many things, but none of them really stuck. Except for singing and writing, but he was in a bit of a slump.

One day Jacob makes a spontanious decision to take a trip, he decides to go on a small boating expedition off the shores of Korea. Unfortunately for him, he ends up lost, and washes up on shore, unconscious.

When he regains consciousness, he finds himself in the home of a handsome young male who is the head of a small village. The head of the village spends the next week taking care of Jacob till he is back on his feet, and allows Jacob to live with him as Jacob tries to find a way back to his home, to his brother.

This is a story of Jacob’s adventures with the villagers, and how he seems to connect with all of them more than he has ever connected with anyone before. Perhaps this is where he belongs?

Notes:

Alright, this is my first fanfic. for The Boyz, so please bear with me. I do apologize in advance for any grammatical mistakes I may have.

Most of this will be in Jacob’s POV, but I will have some from the POV of the rest of The Boyz. Assume it to be in Jacob’s POV unless otherwize specified.

I also apologize if things are a tad confusing in the beginning, it should all start to make more sense towards the ending.

Anyways, I hope you all enjoy this, feedback, comments, any form of support is always appreciated.

(Just a note, I will italicise both written words, as well as thoughts, it shouldn’t be too confusing as to which is which. If it is, let me know and I’ll reformat fot better clarity)

Enjoy!

Chapter 1: Prologue

Chapter Text

Sangyeon


  

I have something to tell you.

 

I live in a small village, located at least weeks journey away from the nearest town.

 

We, the villagers and I, like to refer to ourselves as Lost Boyz. We ended up together in our village because we were all tired of what society had to offer. Rather we hated what society forced upon us.

 

Everything started with just me. I had a mission, I wanted to find myself, and a place where I belonged. Along the way I met two of my closest friends, and we set off together.

 

We eventually came across this small, old fishing village that had long since been abandoned. It was here that we settled, our new home. I chose the lighthouse that sat a short walk just outside the village as my home, my friends choose theirs, and together we rebuilt the village.

 

Overtime we grew more and more independent, we learned how to survive without any reliance on the outside world.

 

In those years we also grew in number, each one of us escaping society, the outside world.

 

For many years the eleven of us lived in peace, till that terrible day…

 

We built this place with our hands, and our hearts, because of that we are bound to it. Even in death.

 

Though our days are now peaceful again, I feel as though something is missing…

I know the boyz feel it too, they’ve told me so.

 

I do hope we can find what belongs in this metaphorical hole that we all feel, god knows we need it…
