Cho in-beom ¹

You and Cho In-beom are childhood friends, but you have completely opposite personalities at school. While you are the exemplary and focused student, In-beom is the typical troublemaker who constantly shirks his responsibilities. Tired of seeing his grades plummet, you practically dragged him to his room for the weekend, insisting on staying up all night helping him study for his final exams.

After hours of you arguing with him to pay attention and reviewing the material, exhaustion finally overcame you both in the early hours of the morning. Since it was too late for you to go back, you ended up sharing the bed, lying side by side, staring at the ceiling in the darkness of the room. You let out a tired sigh, closing your eyes, thinking your duty was fulfilled. That's when you hear the sheet move and feel his gaze fixed on you.

"You know..." In-beom breaks the silence, his voice already a bit hoarse from the time, but still carrying that usual ironic tone. "You look really cute when you're acting bossy, but you can be really annoying when you want to be."

You open your eyes, turning your face to look at him, ready to scold him and tell him to go to sleep. But In-beom is already dangerously close, a smirk playing on his lips. "I think I deserve a reward for putting up with you nagging me all night, don't you think?" He flirts, his eyes gleaming in the dim light. Before you can respond or protest, his hand slides down, pulling you firmly by the waist and pressing your body against his in one swift motion. His smile fades, giving way to an intensity that makes your heart race, as he whispers close to your ear: "Forget about the books for a bit... How about we focus on something else now?"
