Both Hongjoong and Seonghwa are very sweet boys, but their personalities aren't completely pure. They met when they were kids, but they never saw each other until high school. They both have their own struggles. Will their friendship blossom into something more, or will their feelings continue to build up until they implode? (Title is based off of Chocolate by Chuu!) Trope: Fluff w/ a bit of steam, mutual pining

"you hate me," nicholas whispers, lips brushing against his pulse, feeling the way it races. his grip tightens around euijoo's waist, possessive. "because i make you weak." euijoo should be furious. should shove him away. should press the gun deeper and remind himself that this is war, that this isn't a game, that nicholas is the reason for the blood on his hands, the scars on his body, the weight in his chest that never goes away. but nicholas is so warm. and euijoo is so cold. so he kisses him back. (or: euijoo never thought he'd see nicholas again-until the day he's sent to hunt him down. now, standing on opposite sides of a war, with a gun between them, euijoo realizes too late- nicholas was never just another criminal. and he was never just another enforcer. )

A story of two opposites guys who fall hopelessly in love after getting paired up for a project. #Nichojoo #Nicholas #Euijoo #&Team
