Taehyung is completely devastated upon hearing that Jungkook is getting married in a month. He has always loved the boy but he could never admit his feelings, in fear that this would ruin their friendship or even cause the younger to hate him. However, he is finding it impossible to cope with the fact that Jungkook will belong to someone else soon. He can't even imagine living without Jungkook. He had many opportunities in the past to tell the boy about his feelings but was always too scared. Will Taehyung be able to overcome those fears? Will he be able to correct all his past mistakes? Will he be able to tell Jungkook everything before it's too late? Find out in Reset. Don't worry, the plot is not this basic. More surprises await once you start reading! ;) ⚠️WARNING⚠️ One word to describe this story is frustrating. There are times when you'd want to yell at the characters to communicate and others where you'll be infuriated by their oblivion & poor decision making. But if you like slow-burn and angst with random fluff, then this book is for you!

Counts Total words: 120,757 Average words per chapter: 1,589 Amount of chapters: 76 ~~~ Y/N is a girl from America who recently moved to South Korea. She's just getting settled in when she meets an interesting salesman. He tells her that she can play games for money. Making a little money won't hurt... or will it? She'll find out when she decides to join the games. She may also find more than wealth and death in the walls. Maybe she'll find love. This story is a slowburn that includes some enemies to lovers themes/undertones. The reader is female! ~~~ NOTES/ANNOUNCEMENTS/WARNINGS: When Y/N is in the games, I basically follow everything in Squid Game Season One, but I changed a few quotes and events to better suit this book and the inclusion of Y/N. The only trait I have assigned to Y/N is her player number: 055. You can imagine something else though! It won't be very important later on. Some possible triggers including: recurring PTSD, grief, mental breakdowns, drinking, hangovers, very brief sexual assault, detailed sexual assault, etc. More time-specific warnings will be present with the start of each chapter. No warnings = nothing I think will be particularly bad. There's strong language and constant mentions of death as almost this entire story is hosted in a facility that runs death games.
