A LINGxORM AU
Orm Kornnaphat fell first.
Back in The Secret of Us days, every glance, every scripted kiss, every playful touch behind the scenes carved itself into her heart. Ling Ling Kwong was gentle, warm, endlessly sweet - fixing her hair before takes, holding her hand in interviews, calling her น้อง (Nong) with a smile that Orm wanted to believe meant more. Fans screamed that they were real, and for Orm, it was too easy to drown in the fantasy.
Years later, in Only You, nothing has changed - at least, not for her. Ling still dotes on her, on-cam and off-cam, with the same effortless affection. The fandom loves them, their chemistry is undeniable, and Orm's feelings have only grown sharper, deeper, impossible to contain.
But Ling's heart has never been hers to hold. Behind the scenes, hidden from cameras and fans, Ling keeps a secret Orm isn't supposed to know.
For Orm, every touch is salvation and every smile is torment. For Ling, it's innocent closeness, sisterly warmth, nothing more. And when the truth finally comes out, Orm is left with nothing but memories - memories that once felt like love, now poisoned with reality.
A story of devotion unspoken, kindness mistaken, and heartbreak too heavy to name.
Because sometimes, what feels the most real is only an illusion.

Lingling Kwong has always preferred the company of clay over people. As a reclusive pottery maker, she finds comfort in the quiet solitude of her studio, shaping imperfect yet soulful creations with her hands.
Then Orm Kornnaphat walks in-poised, elegant, and entirely out of place. She requests a set of tea cups, "simple, but with character," and keeps finding excuses to return, drawn to Lingling's world in ways she doesn't fully understand.
What begins as a business transaction slowly turns into something deeper, unspoken but undeniable. But both women carry pasts they don't talk about-Orm, bound by family expectations and obligations she can't escape, and Lingling, haunted by a life she once abandoned.
As tensions rise and their connection is tested, they must decide: will they remain shaped by the past, or will they risk everything for something beautifully imperfect-something real?
A slow-burn sapphic romance about love, art, and the quiet spaces in between
