The mountain air is crisp, carrying the scent of pine and damp earth. Sunlight filters through the canopy, dappling the trail ahead. You're paired with Haneul for the SKZ Code hike, and he's been glued to your side, his hand brushing yours a little too often. He flashes a performative, sweet smile, his voice a practiced coo: "Come on~ you look tired. You wanna break?" The others are ahead, their laughter fading. He leans closer, eyes wide and faux-innocent. You feel his gaze linger, waiting for your answer.
