Thank you all so much for giving my story so much love! I started this fanfic with just a dream in my heart, and now seeing it reach 15k views feels surreal. Every read, every comment, and every little bit of support means the world to me. 

To SEVENTEEN and all the Carats who inspired this journey—thank you for being my light.
Let’s continue this story together till the very last page.

Say the name… SEVENTEEN! 

— With love,

Disclaimer: This is a work of fanfiction inspired by the K-pop group SEVENTEEN. The real names and personalities of SEVENTEEN members are used fictionally with the utmost respect and love. This story is purely fictional and is not meant to represent the real individuals. I do not own SEVENTEEN or their likeness. No profit is being made from this story.



Two ordinary girls. One extraordinary group.
A shared dream that brings them to SEVENTEEN’s world—where friendship blossoms, love quietly takes root, and the line between idol and heart becomes beautifully blurred.

Nian and Xuanye never imagined they’d end up living under the same roof as the 13 boys who changed their lives through music. What begins as awe and awkward encounters soon turns into laughter, late-night talks, and memories stitched with music, vulnerability, and love.

But the world of idols isn’t easy—and falling in love with one might just be the hardest lesson of all.

A fanfic filled with slow-burn romance, emotional bonds, healing moments, and the power of believing in yourself when your heart whispers, “This is real.”

To Seventeen,With All My Heart

As Nian chuckled in disbelief, still blushing from her call with DK, she set her phone down and stood from her bed. Walking out, she found Xuanye crouched on the floor, cleaning the mess she had caused earlier.

Nian crossed her arms. "Huh~ so now you're cleaning the mess?"

Xuanye froze, then gave a sheepish smile. "Haa… that? I was just, uh, exercising. One wrong move and—" she trailed off, grinning awkwardly.

Nian raised an eyebrow. "Exercising or chatting with your crush?" she teased.

Xuanye immediately stood and grabbed Nian's arm. "You know my situation, so stop teasing!" she said, tugging her. "It's late. Come on, let's eat."

While waiting in line, Yichen entered and scanned the tables. Spotting Nian, he walked over and tapped her shoulder.

Nian turned, startled. "Yichen? What are you doing here?"

"I just finished my project work. Thought I'd grab dinner," he replied with a bright smile.

Nian gave a polite nod and turned back, slightly uncomfortable under his gaze.

Xuanye noticed and smoothly stepped in. "Yichen, you finished your project already? That fast?" she asked, rapid-fire. "How was it? Did you gain any peace from it?"

Yichen, flustered by the sudden onslaught of questions, simply replied, "I… finished." Then he awkwardly stood in line.

Nian watched, amused. During dinner, the canteen buzzed with chatter, but one bite of the food and Nian grimaced.

Xuanye took a bite, chewed slowly, then sighed. "Nian, I think we should've rented a room at SEVENTEEN's dorm. I miss Scoups' cooking…"

Nian placed her chopsticks down dramatically. "Yes, Xuanye. The food here got worse in just one month…"

They sighed and finished eating reluctantly.

Nian checked her phone. A new notification popped up:

"You've been added to: A Vibe Mates"

She blinked. "Xuanye," she said, tapping her leg, "do you know a group called A Vibe Mates?"

Xuanye, half-asleep, opened one eye and looked like she just achieved enlightenment. "Ah… that's the group Seventeen created. Minghao said the members missed us."

As if on cue, a notification popped up.

Vernon: Haa~ Finally SEVENTEEN has created a group chat.

Woozi: Yah~ We better message in this group regularly.

Joshua: 😊 Guys, I've written so many new acrostic poems. I'll share them when you're free.

Boo: 😤 Joshua, this group wasn't created for poetry. It's mainly for DK and Minghao.

Dino: 👍 Boo, are you silly? If DK and Minghao talk here, won't it feel like we're spying on their love life?

Hoshi: 🐯 From now on, we're like tiger claws! Let's message actively!

DK: 💗 Love you guys~ (video message with a wink)

Nian stared at the screen, stunned.

Xuanye peeked at her. "Why do you look so shocked?"

"Did they all become babies or something?" Nian replied, scrolling in disbelief.

Xuanye raised a brow. "Why, what happened?"

Nian showed her the messages. As Xuanye read them, she burst into laughter.

"They're literally in the same house, and they're chatting like it's a long-distance relationship," Nian said, dumbfounded.

Xuanye giggled. "Look what Minghao sent me privately."

She covered her face in shy laughter.

Nian read the message and sulked. "Look at your future boyfriend being affectionate in public…"

Xuanye snorted. "Oh please. Look what DK sent you—a full video message! If that's not boyfriend behavior, what is?"

Both girls stared at their phones, cheeks glowing red, grinning like schoolgirls.

And just like that, even from miles away, the chaos and affection of SEVENTEEN continued to follow them—one message at a time.
