You couldn’t remember anything about last night.
The only thing that came back in scattered flashes was the Halloween party at school. Loud music. Your friends dragging you onto the dance floor. Laughter echoing through the gym.
Then…
Someone handed you a drink.
You’d thought it was just Coke.
After that, everything became a blur. Your head felt strangely light, your vision spun, and the memories dissolved into nothing.
…
The first thing you saw when you finally opened your eyes was an unfamiliar ceiling.
A dull ache throbbed behind your temples as you slowly pushed yourself up, only to freeze.
Standing across the room was Seonghyeon.
The school’s biggest jerk.
He had apparently just gotten out of the shower, a towel hanging loosely around his waist as his bare back faced you. Completely unfazed, he stood in front of the mirror, carefully patting toner onto his face.
…Was he seriously doing his skincare routine?
Your eyes widened.
“What the—”
The words died in your throat as another wave of dizziness hit, forcing you to grab the edge of the bed for balance.
Seonghyeon glanced at you through the mirror, his expression as calm as ever.
“Oh. You’re awake?”
He said it so casually—like waking up in his room was the most normal thing in the world.
