    Summary

    After years of living quietly between melodies and medication, Seok Matthew doesn’t expect change to arrive in the shape of an old friend.

    Park Gunwook—once the boy who followed him around their old neighborhood—returns with an offer that blurs the line between care and something deeper. What begins as a simple promise of help soon turns into shared spaces, steady heartbeats, and a closeness that lingers long after the silence fades.

    In the stillness of morning coffee and the faint mix of clary sage and home, Matthew begins to wonder—when did it start feeling like this?

    Summary

    Park Gunwook knew three definite truths in his life;
    1. Gunwook was always going to be assumed to be older than he was until ages start not mattering anymore, he was always going to be bigger than his peers, scarier than his peers, stronger than his peers.
    2. Seok Matthew was always there ready to play as soon as he woke up from his hibernation since he was 5 years old and Matthew was 8.
    3. Park Gunwook is terribly, unfortunately, heart shatteringly, deeply in love with his childhood best friend Seok Matthew.

    Summary

    They’ve done this before. When Matthew wakes up off-kilter and too big for her body, when the crushing distance between her and the members yawns wider and wider, Gunwook finds her and holds her together.


    Or: Matthew falls prey to her instincts. Gunwook helps.

    Summary

    It only took two accidents, and one smug underclassman to ruin Matthew’s life. (not literally don't worry)

    Now Gunwook is “training” him for love, which suspiciously involves a lot of leaning, touching, and Matthew forgetting how to breathe.

    Matthew wanted Gunwook's best friend. But, he’s starting to want something else entirely.

    or, enemies > friends(?) > lovers

    Summary

    They both turn away from each other, and no more words are spoken as the sun creeps steadily over the horizon line. The sky fades slowly from a riot of color into whirls of pastel and the breeze turns warmer as Kai breathes salt into her lungs. She doesn’t think she’s felt this peaceful in ages, and when she finally puts brush to canvas her fingers move far more steadily than usual.

    Taehyun’s presence at her side is grounding, even though they are content to exist in their own bubbles. Every time Kai glances over at Taehyun her eyes are fixed firmly on the sunrise, a slight peaceful upturn to her lips. There is a part of Kai that aches to abandon her painting of the sunrise and paint Taehyun instead, to paint the soft slope of her features in the rosy sunlight, silhouetted against the lighthouse in the background. It’s almost like seeing double – the lighthouse standing firm in the background with Taehyun, its loyal keeper, in front of it. They reflect each other in some sort of inexplicable way, and Kai remembers what Taehyun had said about viewing the lighthouse as an extension of herself. She sees it here, in the soft and magical light of the morning, and she longs to capture it on canvas.
