playlist

put a little love on me ;; niall horan

"Are your tears falling down when the lights are low?" because lyle is a bit of a crybaby and ash just wants to be there when he is

are you sure? ;; loote

"This might hurt, this might hurt
'Cause we're so high off the ground
So drive slow when I'm sitting shotgun
Dive slow into new things"
because this relationship is the opposite of a slowburn.

beauty and the beast ;; the rose

"Our love story
That could never come true
Like Beauty and the Beast" because roxant literally spends half the story in denial even though they're engaged and it wasn't even an arranged marriage??

rocket science ;; vaultboy

"If you've been hatin', hesitatin'
This is something different
Baby, it isn't rocket science
Why are we complicatin' it?"
because they (moreso ga-in) treat relationship like its not complicated, because they just love each other and that's all that matters. also, they're both (mostly hyeon-oh tbh) kinda dumb in the "idiots in love" way

talk me down ;; troye sivan

"I wanna hold hands with you
But that's all I wanna do right now
And I wanna get close to you
'Cause your hands and lips still know their way around
And I know I like to draw the line when it starts to get too real
But the less time that I spend with you, the less you need to heal"
because this song is so them-coded (esp. ch98). it took so long for them to go "fck the curse. I want you" but the slow burn is paying off so much

could I be somebody ;; rei brown

"'Cause I don't think that I could take the crush, oh
If only I could reach you, we could touch"
because they really took so long to get together. and i kinda get why all the reviews say that the whole "but he's straight!!" trope is over-used, but also, fear is just valid?? anyways, this song doesn't fit them perfectly (the smut isn't that sensual) but they do do it a lot... and the chemistry!!

can i call you tonight? ;; dayglow

"Could you tell me what's real?
I hear your voice on the phone
Now I'm no longer alone
Just how I feel
Could you tell me what's real anymore?"
because the way gyuyeong keeps everything together until he hears yeonu's voice, and it just all breaks

if you want to ;; beabadoobee

"Cause if you want, you could stay with me in my bed
If you want to, only if you want to
If you want, you can go ahead and fix my head
If you want to, only if you want to"
because they keep asking that their love isn't too much of a burden for the other to bear

gabriel ;; keshi

"When it's my time to go
Know that I'll miss you so
Before I leave
I'll see Gabriel"
because they got too attached and can't leave each other's worlds anymore

crazier things ;; chelsea cutler (ft. noah kahan)

"Oh, I'll spend my whole life
Hoping your heart is free, heart is free
I've been trying not to think of this as something tragic
'Cause our two paths might cross again, crazier things have happened"
because i only read s1 and xiaomi keeps going in between accepting that he'll only have that one night with jiang xi, and hoping for a lifetime
