He is everything Beomgyu isn't asking for, and yet he finds himself drawn to him. Will he be able to let go of the past and take a chance on whatever is budding between them?

Between the lines /SOOGYU/
When Soobin transfers to an elite arts school in Seoul, all he wants is to blend in and make it through the year without drawing attention. Quiet, thoughtful, and carrying the weight of a past he won't speak of, Soobin is fine being invisible. Beomgyu, on the other hand, is the kind of boy everyone notices. Loud, charming, unapologetically himself - and the star of the school's music program. But behind his confident smile lies a mess of expectations, pressure, and a fear of never being enough. Their worlds collide when they're paired for a songwriting project neither of them wants. At first, they clash. Soobin thinks Beomgyu is reckless. Beomgyu thinks Soobin is cold. But as they spend late nights in the studio, arguing over lyrics and slowly letting their walls down, a tentative friendship forms - the kind that makes both of them feel seen for the first time in a long time. But feelings are complicated, timing is cruel, and when Beomgyu's ex - and biggest rival - returns to school, secrets unravel, jealousy ignites, and a choice must be made: confront the truth between them or risk losing it all. Because sometimes love isn't in the songs you write - it's in the silences, the glances, the things left unsaid.Complete
Black Shadow | Yeonbin
The torrential downpour pounds relentlessly against the worn pavement, as if the heavens - if there is one, unleashes their wrath upon the deserted city. The dark alleys are now nothing more than murky rivers, flowing with the incessant rainfall. "You know what you have to do," Yeonjun says from somewhere behind him and Soobin sighs heavily, shakily. Does he really? His trembling fingers poise on the trigger, the weight of the decision now unbearable. He can't do this, it's not who he is. The distorted shape of the man disintegrates into mere shadows and half truths, as the line between good and evil blur into an indistinguishable gray. Time slows, stretching each second to an agonizing eternity. And without a second thought, Soobin pulls the trigger.Complete

CINDERELLA || TK
Not the story with a glass shoe and a prince charming. This one has guns, bruised knuckles, and a mafia prince who doesn't believe in happy endings. Jungkook isn't waiting for rescue - he's just trying to survive. Trapped in a house full of monsters and silence, he's learned that kindness can be fatal and love isn't always gentle. Then there's Kim Taehyung - golden boy of the university, heir to the kind of empire Jungkook wants nothing to do with. Cold, confident, untouchable. The type who gets everything he wants. Except him. "Skipping class again?" Taehyung's voice was smooth, low - the kind that slipped under the skin instead of just being heard. "Didn't feel like it." Footsteps. Slow. Closer. "You never feel like it." Jungkook's reflection met Taehyung's in the glass - two silhouettes, one calm, one trembling with something he couldn't name. "What do you want, Taehyung?" Taehyung stopped just behind him. "You." The word hung there - not romantic, not tender. It was a challenge, a confession, a dare. Taehyung smiled first, slow and dangerous. "You really don't know what you do to people, do you?"Complete

Library || Soogyu
Two broken souls. One shared book. A silent story written between the lines. Soobin has lost too many people to fate. One by one, life has taken away those he loved most, leaving him stranded in his own silence. With every loss, the world grew colder. Now, even continuing his studies feels like a burden. He fears letting anyone in. Because what if they leave too? Beomgyu knows the ache of abandonment all too well. He has mastered the art of pushing people away. Years of betrayal and pain have taught him that trusting others only leads to heartbreak. He hides behind sarcasm and solitude, even from his own family. But beneath his guarded exterior lies a heart that aches to be held, to be understood. Beneath the armor lies a boy quietly aching-for connection, for someone who sees him. They meet in the most unexpected way. Not face to face, but through ink and paper. They meet without really meeting. Hidden notes left inside a forgotten book in the library become their safe place. Their thoughts spill like confessions, their fears echo back in replies. They become each other's secret diaries. Strangers who understand each other better than anyone else ever has. The library becomes their sanctuary. A quiet corner of the world where pain is poured out and understood. A home neither of them asked for. But one they now can't live without. But the heart doesn't stay hidden forever. Beomgyu longs to see the boy behind the letters. To know if the connection he feels is real. If the person on the other side of the page could be the one to finally stay. Will Soobin let him in? Will Beomgyu risk getting hurt again? Can two people so afraid of love find it in each other? In a world where everyone leaves, can two lonely souls find their way to each other? Or will their fears write the ending before their story even begins? "Library" is a slow-burn tale of healing, soft love, friendship, the quiet magic of being seen, in and finding home in the quietest places.Complete
