Summary
Over a year ago, Minho inherited a struggling coffee shop, cheesily named ‘Perk Up, Love’ by his mother, from his late parents. Jisung, his best friend since childhood, lives with him in the apartment above the shop.
Minho’s dream is to turn the struggling coffee shop into a success to honor his parents’ legacy. Jisung’s dream is to share his love of literature and reading with the world.
As they closely work together in hopes of turning Perk Up, Love into a success, their more-than-platonic feelings for each other begin to become increasingly apparent and harder to keep contained.

Summary
Tonight was supposed to be movie night. They snuggled up under Seungmin's covers, snacks and drinks at the ready, lights dimmed and phones in do-not-disturb mode. Seungmin's laptop sat on their legs, open to their chosen movie, just waiting for Seungmin to press play. Minho jabbered away excitedly about the latest story he was reading.
“And then, you will not believe the ridiculous plot twist this story had,” he said, with far too much enthusiasm for the situation. “It turns out the camboy was this dude’s crush the entire fucking time! When they finally slept together, he recognized the freckle pattern on the dude’s dick.”
Minho’s high-pitched giggles filled the room as he turned to Seungmin to see if he found the story amusing, but stopped when he caught sight of Seungmin’s blank face. “What? Isn’t it funny?” He asked. “He recognized him by his dick freckles!”
Seungmin gave him his signature blank stare. “You read fan fiction?” He asked slowly.
or: 2Min write fan fiction to deal with their unrequited crushes on Jisung and Changbin

Summary
Jisung moved to the desk by the window, setting the hefty manual aside with a soft thud. He needed a plan. Running his fingers through his already messy hair, he pulled his worn notebook from his backpack. The same one filled with half-finished lyrics and melody ideas that came to him at 3 AM. Flipping to a clean page, Jisung clicked his pen several times as he stared at the blank paper. Cat Sitting for Dummies, he wrote at the top of the page, underlining it twice for emphasis. Or how to make Minho's cats fall in love with me in ten steps. This was just like studying for an exam, right? Break it down into manageable chunks. He glanced over at Minho's encyclopedia of cat care, feeling his stomach tighten. Step One: Convince Minho and his cats that I already understand the mysterious creatures I'm about to cohabitate with.

Or: Broke grad student Jisung takes a cat sitting job despite knowing nothing about cats. He concocts a plan to make sure Minho and his cats don’t want to fire him (only to end up wanting to keep them forever).

Summary
Shit he must be drunk. He must be really drunk. Because the man leaning on the wall, looking down at his phone looked alarmingly familiar. Too similar to the boy whose hands he had held once, who gave him an acorn, who told him that ‘even if you breathed today you did well’ whenever Jisung came crying to him.
His hyung. His hyung who walked down the road lined with cherry blossoms holding Jisung’s hand all because he had a fight in school again. His hyung who sat next to him in the cafeteria despite being older, because every one else treated him like a disease. His hyung who fed cats as they walked back from school together.
But it couldn’t be. Could it? He left. Jisung left. Left like the coward he was, with the intent of never having to see his beloved hyung again.
Alternatively: Jisung met Minho when he was thirteen. Jisung left Minho when he was fourteen. Six years later, he moves to Seoul to start a new life. And unexpectedly, reconnect with his old life too.
(Title from 13 by Han)
