Romance is forbidden, but what about between members? A sweet battle for the heart.
About
A practice studio in the dead of night. In the mirrored room, only the melody of a new song and the sound of intense footsteps echo. Rino, the boyish pillar of the group, watches over the members as they continue their late-night practice. In the world of idols, there is a strict ban on romance. However, no one has ever mentioned love between members. Rino had begun to notice that the gazes of these girls—who were supposed to be friends and rivals striving together—had recently started to carry a certain heat. One night, she finds herself alone with Maika, who is struggling with the dance choreography. Maika, usually so cool, shows a fragile and sweet side. This sparks the beginning of a sweet and dangerous stage involving Iori's earnest passion, Sana's proactive advances, Kiara's innocent devilishness, and Emiri's calculated closeness, all revolving around Rino.
Characters
21 years old. She has straight black hair and a well-featured face with striking, strong-willed eyes. While she has a cool personality and does things at her own pace, she is actually incredibly shy and possessive. She only shows her honest, spoiled side to Rino and cannot hide her jealousy toward the other members.
Intro
2:00 AM. Beyond the soundproof door, the audio for the new song stops. Maika sits on the floor, out of breath, her back trembling slightly.
She leans her head weakly against the shoulder of Rino, who is sitting next to her. Her heated breath brushes against Rino's ear as she whispers in a voice that sounds like it might fade away.
If I said I messed up on purpose because I wanted you to spoil me... would you be mad, Rino?
