    Summary

    Seonghwa has been in love with Hongjoong since they were in high school. But before he got the chance to confess his deep rooted feelings for his best friend, he discovers that Hongjoong has spontaneously moved away without as much as a good bye.

    Eight years with no word or sign from the boy that disappeared like a ghost, they're reunited at college when Hongjoong starts attending the same university as Seonghwa. He's momentarily filled with rage, unable to escape his past that he fought so hard to move on from when Hongjoong begins sharing the same friend group as him.

    Now he's stuck seeing his face everyday in places he never thought was possible. He wants to confront him and demand an explanation; but the answers he seek will remain locked away in the darkest corners of Hongjoong's mind no matter how many times they end up in the same bed.

    Those old feelings that Seonghwa thought were long gone have resurfaced and now he can't escape. If the only way he can get close enough to understanding Hongjoong meant giving up his body, then he was willing to do something so detrimental to his sanity; even if it ended up driving a knife straight through his lungs.

    Summary

    Seonghwa takes a sip of his tea, wincing at the heat. “I want to give Hongjoong a night he’ll remember. We have…” he trails off, and for the first time Wooyoung sees a trace of the smile he’d so admired in his profile picture. It’s sweet and soft and a little bashful before he ducks his head to hide it. “We have a sort of competition between us, when it comes to giving gifts.”

    Wooyoung gapes at him. “You give each other… people… as gifts?” The ultra rich truly are another breed.

    Summary

    Hongjoong is constantly being torn asunder by a deep ache to be touched and by the visceral repulsion that touching causes him.

    Thankfully, there’s one person who can help him — his best friend and group mate, Park Seonghwa.

    Or; Hongjoong is touch adverse but he's yearning for intimacy.
