Summary
You know what they say: “never waste a Friday night on a first date”. And Matthew should have heeded Grammy Award winner Chappell Roan’s words of wisdom. Instead, ironically, there he is — wearing the best jeans in his wardrobe and having put actual effort into styling his hair and making sure his skin looks nice. It’s a Friday, and Matthew’s date is sitting opposite him at a table barely large enough for both their drinks to fit on top, and he’s smiling seraphically, while he’s not saying anything.
Anything at all.——⭑⋆⋆⋆⭑——
or: Matthew is on a terrible, terrible date.
The salvation he wishes for comes in the shape of his ex-best-friend, Kim Taerae, with whom he hasn't talked in six months after Taerae claimed they shouldn't be friends anymore.or: Matthew and Taerae have a past as best friends, their friends group is in shambles after their fight, there are lingering feelings on either side and no one has any patience left.

Summary
This thing inside Jo—it’s not the innocent kind of affection people joke about. It’s not innocent at all. It’s feral. It’s patient. It wants to crawl into Yuma’s ribs and live there.
But what is he supposed to say? That he feels sick with it? That Yuma’s smile sometimes makes him want to cry? That he’s built an entire religion out of restraint and it’s still not enough?

Summary
The night they met wasn’t anything extraordinary, at first. Just another evening at the bar for Taerae, waiting for the vibe to be right before going up to do karaoke. Then, the disturbance to his routine; a drink or two, some flattery, a charming smile. He had no clue it was about to be a curse, a blessing, and a prelude to, well, everything.
