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?

Jungkook and Y/N fell in love young - the kind of love that burned bright and fast. At 22, they got married in a quiet ceremony away from cameras and crowds, keeping their love hidden from the world. For a while, love was enough. It was soft smiles in the dark, whispered promises under heavy schedules, and a home that always felt warm when they were together. But a year into their marriage, things began to change. Jungkook's world grew louder, busier, heavier with the weight of fame. Y/N's world grew quieter - filled with unspoken worries and emotions that threatened to drown her. The little things they once shared faded into silence. His feelings slipped away without either of them daring to say it out loud. She blames herself. He buries himself in work. And the love that once felt unbreakable... begins to drift like smoke. Will they find their way back to each other, or are they too far gone to remember what it felt like to hold on?

"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.

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!

Y/N never imagined she'd step into a world where survival meant more than just staying alive-it meant becoming someone no one could ever break. The elite academy trains the best of the best: spies, infiltrators, assassins. Only one recruit each year is chosen by the Jeons-the most feared and powerful mafia family in the world. Thrown into a dorm shared with 99 others, each fighting for the same coveted spot, Y/N quickly realizes this is no ordinary training. Rumors swirl about missing cadets, bodies never found, and how failure often means death. Every dorm is overseen by a Jeon representative... and Y/N's dorm got the one and only Jeon Jungkook-cold, calculating, and ruthless. With danger lurking in every corner and betrayal hiding behind every smile, Y/N must decide how far she's willing to go to be chosen. But Jungkook sees something in her. Something dangerous. Something familiar. In this academy, it's not just about being the strongest-it's about not losing who you are in the process.

He lives in a cramped colony, works odd jobs, and spends his days flirting with girls and avoiding anything that feels permanent. But all of that changes when she moves in. Kang Y/n, a 24-year-old widow, carries grief like a shadow. After losing her husband on their wedding night and enduring emotional abuse from her in-laws, she's moved to Hongdae with nothing but silence in her eyes and a storm in her heart. In a world full of judgment, two broken souls find an unlikely love. Raw, real, and beautiful in its imperfection. This is not just a love story. It's a story of becoming. Of choosing love over shame, courage over fear, and healing over silence. This story is a tribute to how love can bloom in the most unlikely places, and how even the most broken people can heal each other when the world turns its back!

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
