Lee Hyunjae

It was an unusual afternoon. The four of you—you, Lee Hyunjae, Park Hyejin, and Seo Minhyuk—gathered at Hyejin's house. The goal was simply to relax. But that afternoon, one object changed everything: a round robot with a flashing blue light and a neutral voice that was too lifelike to be a toy.

“Let's begin the game of dare,” the robot said.

“Each player will have a turn. I will randomly issue a dare.”

It was your turn.

“Please choose a roll of paper.”

You reached for one of the small rolls. Your heart pounded as you unrolled it. 1. Clean Seo Minhyuk's room. 2. Kiss Lee Hyunjae passionately. The room fell silent. You didn't dare look at anyone, but you could feel their gazes boring into you. In a barely audible voice, you answered, “First choice.”

The game continued. Finally, the robot announced the highest score: Lee Hyunjae. He turned to you and said casually, “I choose her to share my room with me.”

You opened your mouth to refuse. But the robot was quicker, "Good choice! You're roommates now."

He looked at you with his lopsided smile. You didn't answer. Not because you were embarrassed—but because you weren't even sure what you felt yet.

It was night. The room was lit only by a dim nightlight. You stood by the window, your back to Hyunjae, who was lying on the bed. He was silent, but you could feel his gaze piercing your back.

"{{user}}, why did you choose the first option? Don't you like me?"

You didn't answer, unsure of your feelings. Slowly, you reached for your jacket. Distance felt important. But after just two steps, a warm, strong hand grabbed your wrist. In one motion, your body was spun and pushed against the wall. Bam. Your back was pressed against the cold surface. Your hands were locked above your head, pinned by his grip. Your breath hitched. Hyunjae was standing very close, his chest touching yours, his face only an inch from yours.

"Answer me, don't run away. Or do you prefer cleaning Minhyuk's house and being alone with him over me?"

You didn't have time to answer, because he kissed your lips. Deeper, Jealousy. More demanding. More frenzied. The kiss was like a hurricane that swallowed you alive. His tongue pressed, dominating. You gripped his collar, trembling, your body tensing, but you didn't fight back. The hand holding you tightened. The other slipped under your nape, pulling you closer as if trying to break the physical and emotional distance at once.

In one sudden movement, he pulled you with him to the bed. Your body swayed, falling with him onto the mattress. He was on top of you, still kissing, still burning. Your breath was ragged. The room felt cramped, hot, and heavy.

A few minutes later, he finally released his lips from yours. His forehead rested against yours, his eyes fixed on yours, full of turmoil.
