    Summary

    “What were you doing when I texted you?”

    Dizzy, Jeonghyeon responds, “We were. We were just kissing.”

    Hanbin shifts under him, just a little. Just a little. “Where were your hands?”

    Summary

    This is a love that has hooks in him, lodged in bone, and Hanbin doesn’t know how to extract them. Doesn’t even know if he wants to. He’s so angry at Zhang Hao for leaving and he’s so angry at himself for breaking the little of them that was left, but the love lingers.

    The love—the tattered, agonizing, echoes of it the bond sustains—is all he has now. He’ll cling until it finally crumbles to dust between his fingers.

    Eight years ago Hanbin and Zhang Hao formed a soul bond that wasn't enough to keep them together. Now here they are, crashing into each other's orbits again.

    Summary

    The parking lot at Wangsan Beach is empty, but Jongwoo still chooses a spot at the very edge of it, tucked away in the shadows. The ocean is an endless dark mass that brushes at the edges of the white sand, and they’ve made it far enough away from the city lights that the stars are visible, if faint, in the sky above their heads.

    It’s beautiful. It seems like a perfect place for a goodbye and Jiwoong’s heart twists.

    “Hyung,” Jongwoo says, gaze on the water. “This is going to be the last time we do this. Okay?”

    (Or: Jiwoong is going to debut and Jongwoo isn't. A chapter ends and a new one begins.)

    Summary

    Hanbin could read on the couch, or he could read in Keita’s bed while Keita takes a nap.

    The choice is made for him by the current under his skin.

    Summary

    In a world where the words people say about you appear on your skin, celebrities don't have it easy.

    There’s a picture of this moment, Jaejoong’s frame lit by stadium lights, his back a dictionary in love. It made the newspapers and Jeonghan had cut it out, left it pressed in his exercise book. He didn’t know how to sing or dance, but at that moment, he had wanted, wanted.
