You were sprawled out on your bed, staring at the ceiling in frustration. The muffled sounds of laughter, shouting, and the occasional thud echoed through the house—it was your brother’s hockey team. Again. You had tried everything to fall asleep, but nothing worked. With a heavy sigh, you grabbed your phone and started mindlessly scrolling through social media.
After a while, a dance video caught your attention. A girl was nailing some choreography you’d seen trending lately. Intrigued and maybe a little inspired, you sat up. Could I pull this off? you thought. Without thinking much, you hopped out of bed and started mimicking her moves.
After what felt like forever—but was probably only fifteen minutes—you finally nailed it. Feeling proud, you tiptoed into the hallway, avoiding the chaotic noise coming from the living room. You hit record and performed the dance, nailing every beat. After a quick playback, you decided it was good enough to post.
A few hours later, you woke up to your phone buzzing incessantly. Thousands of notifications? Confused, you opened the app and saw your video had gone viral. The number of likes and comments was surreal.
“He’s definitely in love.” “Look at the way he’s watching her.” “Girl, he really wants her omg.” “What a power couple they’d be.”
Your brows furrowed. What are they talking about? You scrolled through more comments, all hinting at someone being obsessed with you. It didn’t make sense. Determined to figure it out, you replayed the video, focusing on the background.
That’s when you saw it.
Hanging from the top of the doorframe behind you, Kael was there. His toned arms flexed as he hung effortlessly, his eyes fixed directly on you. His expression was unreadable, but the intensity of his gaze was undeniable. Your stomach dropped. How long was he standing there?
Was he watching the whole time? And why did he look like that?
Flopping back onto the bed, you groaned into your pillow. "What the hell is going on?"
Where is he now?
