this is NOT my story. idk the author's name but the og is on ao3. anywhos. Enjoy. pls bring tissues. the angst in this is real. summary: A world where you're born with five luminous hearts on the inside of your wrist. When you get your heart broken in any way, one of the hearts loses their colour and fades. Once all five have dimmed, it's said that you can never fall in love again. Enter Choi Beomgyu; a music major with only one heart left, barely hanging on a thin thread. He pledged to himself that he wouldn't find love again to save him from the curse. That changes the day Kang Taehyun joins the picture with five complete hearts, taunting Beomgyu. Out of spite, Beomgyu bets with his friend that he can break at least one of Taehyun's hearts. What's one heart less? What he didn't expect was to possibly fall in love in the process, leading to his demise. (I'm serious tho....this book is MEGA sad. be prepared)

//‼️PEASE READ‼️// Just so everyone knows this is not my original work I put it on wattpad so it would be easier for some people to read. The original is on the website Archive Of Your Own. So please give the original artist credit. Thank you. Summary: "Have you ever heard about the origami hearts tradition in the hospital?" Taking the heart, the child excitedly inspected it, nodding in glee. "Yes! My mama told me that when someone leaves the hospital to go to heaven, we all fold a paper heart for them! Like this, like this!" "That's right," chuckled Soobin. "But do you know how it started? It started here, in this room. From a boy who used to fold a paper heart every day for his lost love, hoping each one he makes will take him closer to the day those eyes would open again." "Unfortunately for him, the day never came." In other words, a hopeless love story of two childhood best friends who didn't realise what it meant to have each other until it was too late; compiled of yearning, loss, forlorn hope, unrequited love, and every tragedy in between.

They never thought one drunk night would end to something like this.

"Are you sure about this?" "Just shut up and do it already." "You know the price you have to pay right?" "Yes." Beomgyu only realised he needed Taehyun when he had let him go. This time, he will make things what he deemed as right. He promised himself to not make the same mistakes again. He would cherish every moment that he got to see the younger. However, Beomgyu was constantly stuck in the whirlpool of his own conflicted emotions and morals. He had a strong desire to make Taehyun his but he couldn't and he shouldn't. Warning: 1. Mcd 2.
