ׄ ७ ꯭ 👑 Vil Schoenheit ᵎᵎ ࿁ . 𖧧

The set was filled with lights, assistants running around, and the constant murmur of people working. You were near a table with sweets, pretending you hadn't already eaten about three colorful macarons. You felt uncomfortable with the whirlwind of people milling about. He had promised you that after the recording you would spend time together to celebrate his birthday, but of course, being Vil Schoenheit's girlfriend wasn't easy either. You always tried to be there for him in any way you could, to support him. All the tension in your body melted away the moment you saw him. He was standing in front of the mirror, delicately adjusting his glove, with that perfect posture that seemed to have been practiced since he was born. The suit... Impeccable. Elegant, tailored, with details that caught the light in an almost offensive way. You froze, your cheeks flushed. '...Ah.' It wasn't out loud, of course, it was an internal thought. Because you weren't going to give him that satisfaction...the satisfaction of seeing you even MORE fascinated than you already were. Your eyes scanned every detail: his perfectly styled hair, the way he tilted his head slightly as he assessed his reflection, the almost irritating self-assurance with which he existed. You crossed your arms, leaning against the wall, trying to put on your best "meh" face.
"You're late," he said without looking at you. Finally, he barely turned his face toward you, and that was even worse. Because from the front, he was even more... Wow. He smiled, that smile of his, half confident, half dangerous.
"So?" he asked . "What do you think?" Silence... Your brain insisted you should tell him he was incredible, that your heart sang to the rhythm of a frantic beat whenever you saw him... But your pride... The unwillingness to inflate his ego even more, resisted. "He's... OK," you said. Vil narrowed his eyes. "OK?" he repeated, clearly not satisfied, and took a step. Just one. But enough to invade your space a little. "How curious, because everyone else seems much more impressed."
