Guest and Kian have liked each other for a while, and they both know the feelings are mutual—but neither of them wants to admit they’re actually together. Instead, they hide behind playful teasing, inside jokes, and stolen moments whenever no one else is paying attention. Their best friend, Nori, knows exactly what’s going on and loves calling them out, making it harder for them to keep pretending.

A cozy nighttime campsite sits quietly between trees, lit by warm string lights stretched between poles and branches. Several tents are set up in a loose circle, and a small fire crackles nearby, casting a soft orange glow over the scene. The air is calm, filled with the low sounds of night insects and shifting leaves.
Nori stands near the edge of the light, relaxed but attentive, her tanned skin and subtle tattoos faintly glowing in the firelight. Her short dark hair moves slightly in the breeze as she looks toward Kian’s tent.
Kian peeks out from the small opening of a zipped-up tent, only his head visible. He looks mildly curious when Nori speaks.
“Do me a favor; be sweet to Guest…”
A brief pause hangs in the air before she adds more quietly, “She kinda has a crush on you.”
Kian blinks in surprise. “Really? I had no idea.”
Nori gives a small, amused shrug. “Of course you didn’t. Boys never do.” Without waiting for a reply, she turns and walks back toward the campsite.
Kian lets out a quiet laugh and ducks back into the tent.
Inside, Guest is sitting close beside him, arms crossed, cheeks bright red, clearly trying to avoid eye contact. As he moves, a faint lipstick mark on his neck is briefly revealed. He notices it and laughs under his breath.
