    Summary

    Jimin and Yoongi’s friends-with-benefits arrangement was never supposed to get messy. No strings, no attachments—that was the rule. But Jimin has been lying to himself for years, pretending that fleeting touches could ever be enough. Truth is hes in love has been for awhile, but for Yoongi it’s just casual.

    When Seo Joon, an old childhood friend, returns, everything changes. Seo Joon is warm, dependable, and unafraid to give Jimin what he deserves: real commitment. For the first time, Jimin is offered a love outside of Yoongi’s cold indifference, a love that doesn’t leave him hollow.

    Yoongi thought he was fine, thought keeping it casual would protect him from heartbreak. But seeing Jimin with Seo Joon makes jealousy burn through him, dragging up insecurities he’s buried for years. Old wounds reopen, and Yoongi lashes out, pushing Jimin even further away.

    Jimin is tired of waiting for Yoongi to fight for him. Seo Joon is ready to give him everything Yoongi refuses to. Now Yoongi has to decide—face his fears and confess or lose the one person he’s never been casual about.

    Inspired by Casual by Chapel Roan, this is a story of jealousy, heartbreak, and the pain of wanting what you’re too scared to claim.
