pairing: jungkook x fmc genre : friends to lovers, fake dating.

Everyone thought Jungkook belonged to someone else. The rumors said he loved another girl. The silence between them only made it easier to believe. So Y/N did the only thing she knew how to do. She walked away. Years later, when their paths cross again, the distance between them is gone - but the feelings never were. Because Jungkook has always known one thing: "I was always yours. I was just waiting for you to claim me." Start: 3/3/2026 End:

What begins as a quiet, unexpected connection between Jeon Jungkook and Y/N-a guarded tattoo artist with a painful past-slowly unfolds into something fragile, intimate, and dangerously real. Through shared silences, small joys, and unspoken understanding, the two find comfort in each other in ways they never anticipated. But Jungkook's world is not one built for privacy or mistakes. As feelings deepen, the weight of fame, expectations, and scrutiny begin to close in. Concerned voices warn of consequences, boundaries blur, and Y/N is forced to confront a truth she's known all along: loving someone like Jungkook means loving from the shadows. This is a story about timing that's never kind, love that grows in stolen moments, and two broken people trying to protect one another-sometimes by letting go. A slow-burn romance steeped in angst, warmth, and quiet devastation, asking the question: How much of yourself are you willing to lose for the person you love?

It tenses under your touch, and for a moment you see a flicker of feeble helplessness in his orbs. But that melts as soon as he utters the next words. "You. You're the problem. I'm done with you. I always saw you as my best friend, you know." He tries to smile, but the rift of distrust masks it with a melancholy etched all over his face. "What are you saying, Kook. You're still my best-" He holds up his hand and urges you to stop. Thereby, detaching his arm completely from your touch. "I was. Now I feel it's better if we stay 𝙗𝙚𝙨𝙩 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙧𝙨." He turns around and grabs his jacket, leaving you with a decision he made alone for both of yourselves. ──── ୨୧ ──── 🦢 The book cover, cover art and banners are edited by me: @koobiesbunbun *This is a work of fiction. *All images belong to original owners, no copyright infringement intended.* 🦢 𝗗𝗼 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘇𝗲/𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲/𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘁.

When Jimin hits a crisis, he enlists the help of his older sister - you - and his best friend, Jungkook, to put the pieces back again. That proves to be difficult when 1) Jimin's a brat and a certified pain in the ass, and 2) Jungkook has grown and suddenly, you can't keep your eyes off him. - genre: slight angst, fluff, smut (18+) - jungkook x (f.) reader; brother's best friend au (ft. brother Jimin) - WARNINGS: foul language, feelings of insecurity, minor accident caused by inebriation, getting drunk, explicit sexual content (making out, oral m & f receiving, unprotected sex but be safe please!), JK has a hip tattoo and at some point has gray hair (18+) Note: This was a 2021 story that I revised in 2024!

You and Jungkook have been friends for a decade. And while he's the charming and dependable, often reserved boy-next-door, he's also just been a friend - a constant in your life, a part of a whole, and someone who's seen all the flawed and probably unattractive sides of you. A resumption of your friend group's out-of-town trips has caused you to spend more time with him. And somewhere in between the morning coffee in the forest, running around in the snow, and watching the sunset on a boat, he's become something more. And you're not quite sure how to deal with it. - genre: friends to lovers, vacation au; fluff, comfort, smut; inspired by Are You Sure?! - jungkook x (f.) reader; PE teacher!JK and researcher!OC; semi slow burn, romcom-ish vibe; Are You Sure JK - WARNINGS: foul/explicit language; alcohol consumption, mentions of cheating (JK's ex), minor injuries (18+) Listen to: Beautiful Soul by Jesse McCartney || Yes or No by Jungkook
