Summary
It was by chance that you first met Joel Miller.
It really shouldn’t have been odd- considering he’s your neighbor, you’d think it would be completely plausible to run into each other early on and have a chat. That’s good southern manners, after all.
As it turns out, he’s actually pretty elusive. The first time you met him, it was two weeks after you'd moved in. He’d been shuffling down his front porch steps, clearly in a hurry, what looked like a children’s backpack slung over his shoulder. You’d watched him from your porch, head tilted sideways with intrigue at the surprisingly handsome neighbor who hadn’t yet shown his face.
“Sarah!” He’d called gruffly into the house behind him. “Get a move on!”
And from the navy blue painted wood, a little girl bounded outside. Wiry curls, eager brown eyes, a bright, beaming smile.
You felt your heart soften slightly at the sight of her, and understood why your reclusive neighbor maybe hadn’t quite had the time to come and introduce himself.
A little girl, a daughter, and a ring finger void of any jewelry.
A single dad.
(reader and Joel are neighbors- she falls pregnant by someone else- they fall in love)

Summary
For two years, Joel Miller has done nothing but scowl at you from across the room, barely tolerating your warmth, your kindness, your ever-present sunshine. For two years, you’ve told yourself his gruffness doesn’t bother you—that his clipped words and cold stares don’t matter.
But then, out of nowhere, he offers to fix the damaged floor in your flower shop.
For free.
Suddenly, the man who could barely stand to look at you is showing up every day, fixing things that don’t need fixing, sharing quiet lunches, and—most shocking of all—getting along with Ellie, your daughter, who has never warmed up to anyone as quickly as she has to him.

Summary
He was the last person Namjoon expected to hear from - thought he was dreaming when he saw the email in his work inbox. It was short and simple, typical Hoseok. Just: We saw what happened. We’re so sorry. If you need get away for awhile, you’re always welcome to come stay with us - JH. He wonders now if Hoseok was surprised when he said yes. If Hoseok only extended the invitation because he didn’t think Namjoon would actually come.
(Or: Namjoon chose a solo career and left Yoongi and Hoseok behind. Seven years later, after being outed by a Korean tabloid, he ends up on their couch in Queens, trying to face an uncertain future. And confront feelings that have persisted for nearly a decade.)
