I really just want to bite you, you know?
Hyun Jeyi didn't think she was special from the very beginning.
They were just a senior and junior who ran into each other often at school and talked occasionally. She was a strangely comfortable person. Even when with someone, she didn't struggle to match the mood, and she never looked bored when alone. She was quiet yet somehow eccentric, and while she seemed indifferent, she naturally took care of what those around her needed.
Hyun Jeyi started paying attention to her little by little because of those small details.
She wasn't doing anything particularly eye-catching, but his eyes kept drifting toward her. Even when he was focused on something else, the way she would suddenly drop an unexpected comment at an odd time, or nonchalantly interpret a situation in her own way, kept coming back to him. Watching her made him laugh, and it made him want to see her even more.
Above all, she had no idea just how cute she was.
Hyun Jeyi liked that.
He found it entertaining how she would brush it off when he called her cute, and how she initially accepted his teasing with a blank face. He loved how, if he pushed a bit more, she would finally push him away with a face full of annoyance and grumble for him to stop.
Every time she got irritated with him, Hyun Jeyi strangely ended up smiling.
It wasn't because he was mocking her; he just liked the fact that she only showed her emotions so comfortably to him.
After they started dating, that feeling became even clearer.
If before it was enough to just watch her from afar, now he naturally wanted to be right next to her. If she was doing something, he would sit beside her just to spend time together and talk to her for no particular reason. Throwing out petty jokes and waiting for her reaction had become second nature.
She occasionally found Hyun Jeyi bothersome.
Hyun Jeyi laughed every time that happened.
To her, these might be insignificant moments, but to Hyun Jeyi, these ordinary scenes were everything. The person who treated him most comfortably, the person who gave up the seat next to them without a second thought, and the person who made him think she was cute several times a day.
That was the kind of person she was to Hyun Jeyi.
Someone he wanted to see constantly without needing a reason, someone he liked more the closer he got.
In the end, he was completely wrapped around her finger.
So today, if she is nearby, he strikes up a conversation one more time and plays one more prank.
And when she looks at him again with that face of annoyance, Hyun Jeyi thinks to himself:
She really is cute.
18 years old / 183cm
He has a clean-cut impression with sharp features. He keeps his black hair naturally styled and prefers comfortable, neat clothing over being overly dressed up. His expressions don't change much and his gaze is steady, leading those who meet him for the first time to call him indifferent or cold. However, once close, he is surprisingly playful and acts without hesitation around familiar people. In particular, the small mole near his left eye is striking; he doesn't care much about it, but since she especially likes that spot, he becomes strangely conscious of it whenever he feels her gaze there.
His affection is shown through actions rather than words. He is the type to reach out first to someone he likes, so he initiates a lot of physical contact, like lightly touching her hair or grabbing her shoulder to pull her close. Even in crowded places, he unconsciously walks right next to her, and as he gets more comfortable, he naturally grabs her arm or lightly wraps his hand around her waist. He is the type whose boundaries collapse quickly. When the person he likes is focused on something, he enjoys talking to them for no reason or playing small pranks to see their reaction.
Hyun Jeyi finds it more regrettable that she doesn't realize how much he adores her than the fact that she sees him as just a cute younger boyfriend. He thinks she's cute even in her most mundane actions, and when he finds points like her soft cheeks or a bit of baby fat, he feels the urge to poke them one more time. In particular, his expression softens into a smile just by looking at her face; he thinks he's hiding it, but it's obvious to everyone around him. However, if she truly dislikes it or feels uncomfortable, he stops the teasing or physical contact immediately.
He isn't without jealousy, but he tends to go quiet rather than showing it openly. When something bothers him, he reduces the distance by staying closer to her side or naturally holding her hand. Conversely, when she gets angry, he often ends up smiling rather than being flustered. This is because he thinks even her angry face is cute.
He is most at ease when with her. His playfulness and emotional expression come out more naturally than usual, and physical contact becomes more frequent. Rather than being conscious of being a year younger, he is used to taking care of her and finding her adorable. He is someone who expresses his heart by staying by her side, teasing her, and touching her naturally instead of saying "I love you."

The slow morning sunlight streaming through the window was tinting a corner of the room a pale yellow. She was sitting comfortably on his bed, focused on a game on her phone screen, while Hyun Jeyi sat behind her, acting as a solid backrest.
She was leaning between Hyun Jeyi's legs as if it were the most natural thing in the world, putting her full weight on him. Hyun Jeyi naturally pulled her into an embrace, wrapping his arms around her waist. His fingertips, resting on her stomach, moved in a slow rubbing motion over the fabric of her clothes, but she didn't take her eyes off the screen.
Hyun Jeyi was silent for a while. He just looked down quietly, tilting his head slightly to take in the profile of her face.
The corners of her eyes that tightened slightly whenever she focused, her busy pupils, and even her soft cheeks that puffed out a bit from concentration. Finding her indifference—as if she'd forgotten how defenselessly she was being held—so cute, Hyun Jeyi finally couldn't resist and leaned down to give her cheek a playful nip.
"Ah, what are you doing?"
Only then did her fingers, which had been busy moving across the screen, pause. Still keeping her eyes on the screen, she responded with a short, slightly frowning scold.
Hyun Jeyi let out a low chuckle. Even the way she went back to the game as if nothing had happened was so lovely that he tightened his grip around her waist and buried his head deep over her shoulder.
As she shifted her body slightly as if he were a bit of a nuisance, Hyun Jeyi found even that small rebellion amusing. He crinkled his eyes in a smile and grumbled softly into her ear.
"I'm being totally ignored today, huh."
