"Sky was everything Nani wasn't-charming, loud, and adored by everyone. Nani had spent most of his university life alone, watching people come and go, never truly belonging. But when fate pulls him into Sky's world-a world of laughter, friendships, and chaotic energy-he finds himself experiencing something new: belonging. And then, something even scarier: love. He never meant to fall. He never meant to care this much. But when Sky starts dating someone else, Nani realizes the hardest thing about love isn't falling-it's staying silent when it's already too late." --- This is my first time writing a story, and English is not my first language, so I apologize in advance for any grammar or spelling mistakes.

Kim Mingyu's life is built around love, loss, and responsibility. At just 26, he's a single father to his four-year-old son, Hansol, after losing his wife during childbirth. Between his demanding job as an architect and raising a child on his own, Mingyu barely has time to breathe, let alone take care of himself. But he keeps going-for Hansol, for the memory of the woman he loved, and for the quiet promise he made the day she passed: "I'll give him everything." When work becomes too much and his parents begin pressing him about moving on, Mingyu knows something has to change. At the recommendation of his best friend, Seungcheol, he hires Jeon Wonwoo, a soft-spoken barista with a gentle smile and calm eyes, to help look after Hansol. Wonwoo expects nothing more than a simple babysitting job. But what he finds instead is a small family still grieving, still healing, and still learning how to love again. Hansol latches onto Wonwoo almost immediately-calling him "Mumma Woo" and drawing crayon pictures of the three of them like it's always been that way. Wonwoo doesn't want to get attached, but the warmth of the home, the sound of Hansol's laughter, and the quiet way Mingyu smiles when no one's looking make it impossible not to. Everything becomes more complicated when Mingyu, out of desperation, tells his visiting parents that he has a new lover-hoping to stop their constant pressure to move on. But now they want to meet the supposed boyfriend, and with no one else to turn to, Mingyu asks Wonwoo to help him one last time: "Just pretend... just for a week." Wonwoo agrees, for Hansol's sake. For Mingyu's sake. Maybe even for his own. But fake smiles start to feel real. Late-night conversations blur the line between pretending and longing. And the way Mingyu looks at Wonwoo when Hansol falls asleep in his arms makes it harder and harder to remember what they're not.

Wrote this book in honor of my 2 favorite ships from bts and svt, taekook and minwon. --- There were two kinds of legends at Hwanil University. The kind who got perfect grades, led student clubs, and made professors smile-and the kind who looked like they'd stepped out of a drama, dazzling everyone with a single glance in the hallway. Jeon Wonwoo was both. A second-year student majoring in literature and a prominent member of the student council, Wonwoo kept to himself, glasses low on his nose, eyes forever lost in books. He spoke softly, smiled rarely, and blushed easily-especially when praised. Despite his quiet nature, his name passed through lips all over campus, always paired with phrases like "so pretty," "so smart," or "so mysterious." And then there was Kim Taehyung, a third-year art student and the proud leader of the university's drama club. He was loud where Wonwoo was silent, sunshine where Wonwoo was moonlight. With his signature boxy grin and bright-patterned scarves, Taehyung lit up every room he walked into-and left hearts in disarray behind him. Neither expected their lives to change with the arrival of two first-years. Mingyu and Jungkook met in high school-bonding over football, snacks, and a shared talent for making girls squeal and boys grumble. The duo had one simple goal: dominate the university football team and live their best lives. Two younger brothers. Two older brothers. One campus full of chaos, crushes, and competition. And neither Mingyu nor Jungkook had any idea that the person they were falling for... was the other's older brother

**WATTYS 2025 HONOURABLE MENTION** Cas and Vish are best friends whose feelings run deep. Whilst Cas is clever, sporty, and on the brink of a bright future at university, Vish has no such prospects.

When villagers begin to disappear and Vish becomes increasingly secretive and distant, Cas is convinced that Charlie intends to claim Vish, body and soul. Lies, heartbreak and obsession push their friendship to breaking point, but nothing will stop Cas from protecting Vish from Charlie's onslaught, not even a fight to the death. --- This book started life as an ONC 2025 prompt: 105.
