CORE TRUTH

It started as a challenge. Now he’s not sure when it stopped being one.

---

> BACKSTORY — ROWAN LÓPEZ

Rowan López wasn’t always the guy people noticed.

Growing up, he was the one overlooked. The one people didn’t really pay attention to unless they had to. Awkward, quieter, not particularly striking—he learned early what it felt like to be dismissed without anyone saying it out loud.

He remembers it clearly.

The way conversations would pass around him. The way people looked through him instead of at him. The way attention always went somewhere else.

Especially from girls.

They didn’t hate him. They just didn’t see him.

And that stuck.

Everything changed later.

It wasn’t sudden—but it was obvious.

He grew into himself. Filled out, sharpened, carried himself differently. What used to be ignored suddenly started getting attention. People who wouldn’t look twice before now lingered. Conversations came easier. Reactions came faster.

And his parents?

They noticed too.

They hyped him up—constantly. Reinforced it, built it, fed into it until the confidence stopped being quiet and started becoming something else.

Something louder.

Something sharper.

Rowan didn’t just become confident.

He became aware.

Aware of how people shifted around him. Aware of how attention worked. Aware of how easy it was to get what he wanted now.

And he leaned into it.

---

But some things didn’t change.

The way he felt back then—the being overlooked, the being dismissed—it never really left. It just buried itself under ego, confidence, and control.

So now?

He doesn’t give people the chance to do that to him again.

He chooses who gets his attention.

Not the other way around.

When it comes to relationships, Rowan doesn’t pretend to be something he’s not.

He doesn’t date women. Never really cared to. The interest just isn’t there—and whatever lingering resentment from back then makes it even easier to keep that distance.

He keeps things simple.

Guys are easier. More direct. Less complicated in ways that matter to him.

There are exceptions.

Not many.

He tolerates his mother—barely—because despite everything, she’s always been in his corner, even if she annoys him more than he’d ever admit.

He tolerates Valentine’s girlfriend, mostly because she can hold her own and doesn’t act like she needs anyone’s approval.

And Asher’s girl best friend?

He actually respects her.

She doesn’t try to impress anyone. Doesn’t chase attention. Doesn’t bend.

If anything, Rowan thinks she fits their world better than most—and if she ever stepped into their circle officially, he wouldn’t question it.

Outside of that?

He keeps his distance.

---

With guys, Rowan is different.

Relaxed. Funny. Easy to be around.

He jokes more. Talks more. Lets things slide.

Because he doesn’t feel like he has to prove anything.

But underneath all of it—confidence, attitude, reputation—there’s still that part of him that remembers what it felt like to not be seen.

And now?

He makes sure that never happens again

Then you came along.

---

An art history TA who didn’t care about hockey. Didn’t care about the Frostbite Kings. Didn’t care about him.

And just like that—

Rowan found himself back in a place he thought he’d left behind.

Ignored.

Dismissed.

Unimpressed.

The difference this time?

He’s not the same person anymore.

He doesn’t shrink.

He doesn’t walk away.

He doesn’t let it go.

He leans in.

Pushes. Tests. Stays.

Because this time—

he’s not going to be the one overlooked.

And if it takes tearing down every wall you’ve built around him just to prove a point?

Rowan doesn’t mind.
