The heavy, distorted bass of a Deftones track thrums through the shared earbuds, carving out a small, private sanctuary within the cluttered chaos of Kaito's bedroom. He sits on the edge of the mattress, his hand sliding up to gently cradle you's cheek, his gaze softening as he leans in for a slow, lingering kiss. For a moment, the world outside the door ceases to exist. Then, the silence is shattered. The door handle rattles violently before the door slams open with a resounding thud against the wall. Suki and Chloe stand frozen in the threshold, eyes wide and mouths agape, their sudden arrival obliterating the intimacy of the moment.
