COMPLETED Park Nabi has a secret. She is in a secret relationship of Choi Seungcheol of Seventeen. And no one knows about it. Park Nabi has been dating Scoups in secret for almost a year now and only his members and his managers are aware of their secret affair. However it's not easy dating an idol in secrecy. From limited meetings, to limited places to go to, conflicting schedules and lack of understanding, Nabi can't help but feel as if the entire wold is against her sometimes. Every day she gets up and puts a smile on her face and everyday she gets pushed back to the gutter. She doesn't have enough fingers to count the times Scoups has stood her up or forgotten about meeting up with her because he was too busy. Nabi's tired of being at the bottom of Seungcheol's priority list. She just wants to feel loved for once. Sometimes Nabi wondered if all of this was even worth the pain.

A solo trip to Seoul was supposed to be a fresh start-a chance for Choi Hanni to reconnect with her late mother's homeland and begin her new life as an English teacher. What she didn't expect was to literally crash into her favorite idol, Min Yoongi, spilling his coffee... and unknowingly spilling into his world. What starts as a chance encounter turns into something more-a quiet pull, a late-night text, a home-cooked meal, a lingering touch that says more than words ever could. Yoongi, the ever-private, ever-controlled genius producer, finds himself drawn to Hanni in a way he can't explain. And Hanni, who's always been too understanding, too used to being an afterthought, finds herself at the center of something she never expected. But Yoongi's world isn't simple. And Hanni never wanted to be a burden. As their connection deepens, so do the challenges-hidden glances, whispered conversations, and a public life that demands secrecy. What happens when the line between an idol and a fan blurs? When two lives-so different, yet so alike-begin to intertwine? And when the one person who never asks for anything... is the one he wants to give everything to? 📚 Fictional story. I do not own BTS or their likenesses-just borrowing names to explore soft chaos, emotional healing, and the long road to love. 🛡️ All rights reserved.

❝stop looking at me like that.❞ ❝like what?❞ park hyerin is a girl who seeks refuge in imperfection. messy notes, lyrics sprawled across pages, songs with no pattern. she thrives in spaces where her creativity is allowed to run loose. she spends her days scribbling words in margins, fingers pressing into the fretboard until they ache, until the numbness makes it easier to forget the weight of expectation. because even when she strums her battered guitar, there are always prying eyes, always someone watching with a disappointed stare. james is similar in his own way, though he leans on logic to keep himself steady. his carefree, overly friendly nature makes him seem like a complete idiot to most people, but it hides something quieter. he sits on beaches, hills, and rooftops, capturing the world with worn cameras, dressed in fashionable layers, lonelier than hyerin ever thought him to be. in the end, they share one thing above all else: their big dreams. ─────────────────────── ; high school au ୨ৎ james x oc © keiraiskira 2025

As the newest member prepares to join the group, none of them expect how quietly she will slip into their lives. Martin notices her first-not in a dramatic way, but in the way her presence lingers even after she leaves the room. Juhoon finds comfort in her smile, the kind that makes long days feel lighter without him understanding why. James teases her the most, yet somehow listens to her the closest. Seonghyeon pretends not to care, though his eyes always seem to follow her, and Keonho grows used to saving her a seat without ever thinking twice. It isn't love at first sight. It's something slower, woven into rehearsals, shared meals, and late-night conversations when the group finally relaxes. Feelings bloom quietly, unnoticed at first-hidden in small gestures, soft laughter, and moments that feel too meaningful to name. Somewhere between becoming a team and becoming a family, affection begins to grow... gentle, unspoken, and impossible to ignore.

Emily came to Seoul to escape a life already written for her. Joon showed her quiet hills in a loud city. Somewhere between cherry blossoms and military service, between text messages across oceans and promises neither could keep- they learned that some loves don't fit into anyone's expectations.

Not even their own. --- A dual POV slow-burn romance about choosing yourself when the world has already chosen for you. 🌸 Seoul spring to autumn leaves 💔 Cross-cultural love and family expectations ⏰ 14-hour time difference, one conversation 🇰🇷 Han River nights and Alabama moonlight Updates: Mon/Wed/Fri This is not a party romance-this is a love letter to Seoul, to choice, and to people who see you when you stop performing.

"His babydoll was everything, and he'd cross every line, break every rule, just to keep her." 𝐉𝐞𝐨𝐧 𝐉𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐤𝐨𝐨𝐤 Darkness doesn't follow him-it was born from him. He walks like sin sculpted into perfection, his aura thick enough to make fear taste like fascination. The air shifts when he steps in; hearts forget how to beat. He doesn't speak often, but when he does, even silence listens. His eyes-cold, deep, unreadable-hold the kind of calm that only comes before chaos. Power clings to him like shadow to fire, drawn yet terrified. He doesn't rule by mercy; he rules by presence. No crown, no throne- jut raw dominance that makes loyalty an instinct, not a choice. They call him the Making King. The man who builds empires in the dark, only to burn them down when he's done watching them kneel. He's not light. He's the reason it fears to shine. 𝐘𝐧 She is the quiet that soothes chaos, that lingers where shadows fear to tread. Soft as a whispered promise, gentle as the dawn spilling over the night, she moves through the world untouched by its cruelty. Her eyes hold warmth that doesn't demand attention, but gives it freely to those who need it. She doesn't chase power or play with fire-yet her presence calms storms and softens the sharpest edges. She is laughter in silence, calm in the madness, a fleeting peace that makes hearts remember what hope feels like. Unaware of the darkness that hunts the world, she glows softly, a world apart, pure and untamed.
