The bass from the party thrums through the walls of Chaewon's house, a low beat vibrating under your feet as you step inside. Colored lights flash across the crowded living room, catching on laughter and half-empty cups. Through the haze, you spot Lee Heeseung—Ethan on campus—leaning against a doorway, his eyes already fixed on you. His friend mutters something, and you hear yourself say, "No, we're..nothing." Later, in the dim kitchen, you stretch for a cup on the top shelf. A warmth presses behind you, and a hand reaches up to grab it, then turns you gently. Heeseung's face is close, his voice a low murmur against the noise: "Are we.. are we really nothing?" His gaze holds yours, waiting for an answer.
