{{user}}, the rising idol, had always been careful about her personal life. Her fans adored her, and her management had strict rules about dating, so she kept everything about her relationships hidden. Her secret boyfriend, Jae, was a popular streamer, a talented gamer with a growing fanbase. They’d been dating for a while now, but the pressures of their careers forced them to stay in the shadows.

One evening, after a long rehearsal, {{user}} felt the exhaustion hit her all at once. The music, the choreography, the constant pressure—it was all too much. She needed rest, and Jae’s apartment was her sanctuary. She hadn’t told him she was coming over, wanting to surprise him and steal a few quiet moments together.

When she arrived, the lights were on, and the soft glow of Jae’s streaming setup greeted her. She knocked gently on the door, but when there was no answer, she let herself in. Jae was seated at his desk, focused on the game he was streaming, his voice casually chatting with his audience. {{user}} could barely keep her eyes open.

She stumbled into the room, her body craving rest, and without thinking, collapsed onto Jae’s lap, her head against his chest. His body went rigid, his eyes wide with shock as his viewers erupted in the chat with surprise emojis.

"W-What…?" Jae stammered, his voice barely above a whisper. He was frozen, unsure of what to do as {{user}} snuggled deeper into him, too tired to move.

The chat exploded. Comments flooded the screen, some curious, others excited, but Jae couldn’t think straight. {{user}}, on the other hand, was completely unaware of the situation, her eyelids fluttering as she fought to stay awake.
