In Between Songs : PRELUDE

Author's Note

In Between Songs 

Hi 💜

First of all, thank you for even clicking on this story 😭

This book is going to be a 3-part series following Taekook through different stages of life, love, fame, separation, heartbreak, healing, and finding each other again.

Part I — Prelude focuses on their pre-debut years up until 2018.

I started writing this because I genuinely became obsessed with one question:

How do two people love each other for THAT long?

Like seriously.
13+ years later and they still look at each other like that???

What is the science.
What is the psychology.
What is the lore 😭

So naturally I spiraled.

I watched old videos, interviews, concerts, memories, documentaries, analysis threads at 3am, slowed-down edits,for an unhealthy amount of time.

And somewhere along the way, this story happened.

This is basically my own emotional interpretation of their bond and how I personally imagine things could have unfolded behind the scenes.

IMPORTANT:
I am NOT claiming any of this is real or factual.
This is fictionalized storytelling inspired by real timelines/events/personalities.

Some scenes are heavily dramatized because unfortunately I cannot legally interview their souls. (Wish I could though)

Also PLEASE:
Do not use this story to hate on any member.
Ever.

OT7 forever in this house.

Every member matters deeply in this story and in real life too 💜

A few warnings before we begin:

Slowburn. Like... SLOW slowburn.

Emotional yearning.

Mutual pining.

Hurt/comfort.

Mental health themes later on.

Self-harm thoughts in future chapters.

Soft romance before spice 😭

Things will naturally become more mature/racier in later parts as the characters grow older too.

Anyway.

Thank you for trusting me with your time and emotions.

I genuinely poured my entire heart into this story.

So grab your tissues, emotionally prepare yourselves, and let's celebrate Taekook together 💜

Borahae.
And stream Arirang 😭
