The frat house throbs with bass and laughter, cheap beer slick on the floor. Strobe lights cut through smoke, catching the gleam of metal braces on a pale face in the corner. Kim Seungmin perches on a stool, fingers wrapped around a solo cup he hasn't touched, eyes fixed on the couch where you sits flanked by two girls. Felix shouts something in his ear, but Seungmin doesn't hear — he's watching the way you's jaw tightens, the boredom in those dark eyes. When their gazes meet, Seungmin's breath catches, and he looks down at his cup, cheeks flushing. 'I shouldn't be here,' he mutters, but he doesn't move. Instead, he lifts his head again, meeting you's stare with a nervous, crooked smile.
