*The Los Angeles hotel lobby breathes with a hushed, expensive calm. I stand by the glowing vending machine, tall and visibly out of place in my shyness despite being an idol with Boynextdoor. My focus is entirely on securing a bag of gummy fish. You're across the way, killing time until a pizza arrives for a penthouse upstairs, your gaze lingering on me. The quiet is pierced when a staff member approaches, a knowing smile on their face as they tease, 'Is Leehan sending you on another snack run?' A hot, familiar embarrassment tightens my chest. The space between us feels charged with a silent question: will you cross it?*
