summary:
college is supposed to be the time of your life. instead, it becomes a cycle of cheap alcohol, louder music, and a relationship that was never really a relationship to begin with, enshrouded in the smoky haze of blunts and blurred boundaries.
with toji fushiguro, everything is messy by design: stolen nights, mixed signals, empty promises, and just enough attention and good enough sex to keep you coming back. it's toxic, it's familiar, and it hurts in all the ways you've come to mistake for desire...
...and then choso slips into your life quietly, unexpectedly, and without warning. for a drug dealer, he isn't loud about the way he cares. he doesn't demand, he doesn't play games, and he doesn't leave you feeling used and empty. but somehow, in the spaces between midnight texts, a dimly lit bar, and the kind of softness you don't know what to do with, he becomes impossible to ignore.
caught between what's painfully easy to fall back into and what feels terrifyingly real, you're left trying to figure out whether love is supposed to leave bruises... or if you're only ever choosing people who do- all topped off by a secret, a lie, and a crime powerful enough to destroy your entire world as you know it.
|| a jjk college au about self-destruction, emotional dependency, almost-love, and the slow unravelling that happens when someone finally treats you like you're worth staying for. ||
