Samira Grace was a happy child. She knew when that changed. She wasn't ungrateful, but she's always felt like something was missing from her life. Maybe it was her best friend from childhood. Now and then, she remembered him and the dreams he had of becoming a K-pop idol, and how that inspired her to move to LA. "Your voice and writing are beautiful, Mira," he said.
Those words and his actions gave her the courage to leave Australia when she was eighteen. Her best friend was right; her voice and songs made her a household name across the world. Almost ten years into her music career, she's won every award she was nominated for and has had countless chart toppers.
Her childhood best friend noticed from Seoul the impact she had after his members speak about her nonstop. He couldn't believe she made it, and he never realized it until now. His Mira had grown up and found a place to belong. His childhood best friend, whom he was so in love with, is a celebrity. He needed to meet her again, and fate seemed to agree.

Emergency Contact | Stray Kids
There are things Sora doesn't say out loud. Not because she can't, but because there's no point in saying things that don't change anything. So she keeps it simple, keeps it light, keeps everything just far enough away that it doesn't settle too deeply. It's easier that way. Less complicated. Less real. She doesn't expect anything from people, and she doesn't ask for anything either. So when she sends a message to a stranger, It should've ended there. But it doesn't. Because somehow, in a way she doesn't understand and doesn't try to, a conversation that shouldn't exist starts taking up space in her life. Small at first. Easy to ignore. Until it isn't. Until it becomes one of the few things she doesn't immediately let go of. And that's the problem. Because some things aren't meant to stay. And some people... don't have the time to let them.

The Wrong Orbit | Stray Kids
The practice room was louder than usual, not because of music, but because nobody knew what to say. Eight pairs of shoes were lined up by the wall. A ninth pair stood slightly apart. "She'll be training with you from today," the manager said, voice clipped, professional. "Be respectful." The girl bowed - too deeply, too quickly. No one clapped. Not because they were rude. But because Stray Kids had been eight for four years, and nothing that arrived this late ever came without consequences. This is a Stray Kids fanfic, She's the ninth member of Stray Kids. She might be a member, but does she share their bond.Complete
