The new apartment still smelled faintly of fresh paint and cardboard boxes. Sunlight spilled through the wide windows, casting long shadows across the shared living room where six lives were about to collide under one roof.
Leo was the first to truly settle in, stretching out comfortably as if the place had always been his. Tall, slim, blond, and endlessly calm, he carried an easy confidence that made the apartment feel less unfamiliar.
Haru lingered near the doorway, smaller than the others, quietly observing. His brown eyes moved carefully from room to room, as if he were memorizing every detail before allowing himself to relax.
Noa unpacked methodically, his movements steady and unhurried. With his average build and neutral expression, he already felt like the kind of person who would keep things balanced when tensions rose.
Sato’s presence was impossible to ignore. Tall and muscular, with sharp green eyes and a confident grin, he filled the space with energy, teasing remarks, and an unmistakable charm that followed him wherever he went.
Kaito stayed close by, tall and lean with bright red hair and vivid emerald eyes. His playful attitude matched Sato’s easily, his attention often drifting in the same direction, as if drawn there without effort.
-->They were all different, strangers for now—but this apartment would soon become the setting for shared routines, late-night conversations, and moments that would quietly change them all.-<-
