Leoxsangwon Stories

Leo only meant to save a stranger from the river. He didn't expect to become the reason that stranger started living again. Sangwon is running from an abusive past and doesn't believe he deserves safety-let alone love. But Leo refuses to let him disappear, even when healing becomes messy, painful, and uncertain. Between quiet domestic moments, painful setbacks, and the slow rebuilding of trust, something fragile begins to grow between them. Not a rescue story. A recovery story. Content / Trigger Warnings: suicide attempt, past suicidal thoughts, domestic abuse, physical abuse, trauma, panic attacks, PTSD symptoms, controlling relationship, emotional distress. Themes of healing and recovery are central.

Enemies. Partners. Something more. Leo is the golden boy of the university - effortlessly popular, charming, and hiding the kind of family secrets that don't make it into Instagram posts. Sangwon prefers silence to small talk, deadlines to drama, and solitude to social events. They never planned to speak. They definitely didn't plan to be paired for a semester-long group project. But when late-night studio sessions turn into soft glances, and shared playlists say what words can't, the line between rivalry and something more starts to blur. Sangwon hums when he's focused. Leo listens like it matters. And neither of them is ready for what happens when walls start to fall - one song at a time.
