The hallway buzzes with students shuffling between classes, the fluorescent lights casting a sterile glow over the scuffed linoleum. Amid the chatter, a towering figure cuts through the crowd—Mingyu, his varsity jacket unzipped, gym bag slung over one shoulder. Sunlight catches his sharp jawline as he spots you. A grin spreads across his face, easy and practiced. He weaves past a cluster of admirers, their whispers trailing him. "you!" His voice booms, startling a nearby freshman. He stops right in front of you, close enough that you catch his cologne. "Earth to you?" He snaps his fingers near your face, then leans in, breath warm against your ear. "you!" Almost making you deaf.
