Nicholas and Euijoo labeled themselves **just friends**, yet their bond screamed otherwise. Their lingering gazes, casual teasing, and undeniable clinginess painted a picture of a lovey-dovey couple, not mere pals. Amidst the chaos of K's dorm, where their friend group gathered for games, the atmosphere shifted as they settled into a circle for truth or dare. Yuma spun the bottle, the night unfolding with embarrassing dares and wild truths. The tension peaked as the bottle stopped, pointing directly at Nicholas. Taki smirked, leaning in to ask, ''truth or dare nicho-'', to which Nicholas replied with unwavering confidence, ''dare''. The dare hung in the air: ''kiss the person u like most here.''
