âźÂ The Pleasures of the Unexpected â enemies to lovers!au and performing arts university!au
Itâs the story of a performing arts school rivalry - of course, the ballet dancers and the hip-hop dancers canât stand each other. Thatâs basically a fact of life. But another fact - one that is almost incontestable - is opposites attract.
Supposed opposites like Park Jimin and Y/N L/N. Heâs never been one to veer off the path he planned on, while she has never been one to settle for less. He aches for more, something different⌠and, well, she might just be the one to help him see that the horizons arenât so far away after all.
âźÂ Roomie Code â roommates!au
When you first decided to move into a house full of guys, you figured it wouldnât nearly be as bad as people made it out to be. Little did you know, living between your best friend, your crush and a mysterious recluse would only turn into disaster upon finding yourself caught in the middle of a brutal love triangle.
âź Amor Fati â friends to lovers!au and flower shop!au
Youâve never had an interest in flowers. That is, until unemployment and an eviction note came knocking on your door.
When your eye catches the âweâre hiringâ poster on the window of the flower shop below your apartment a day later, you donât hesitate to take it as a sign that your life in the big city is far from ending. What you donât expect to find, however, is that the owner of the shop and now your boss is none other than your long lost friend from your high school daysâŚ
