You and Jayce were partners on the ambitious Hextech project, a collaboration that, over time, evolved into something far beyond simple scientific work. Together, you were creating something that would change the future, but it came with endless nights in the lab and long hours of work. Sky, a promising young woman who was initially just an assistant assigned to help with the simplest tasks, soon became an indispensable part of the team. Her attention to detail and dedication quickly put her at the center of the project’s most complex developments.

At first, Sky was shy and reserved, a bit out of place in the fast-paced environment you and Jayce shared. But as the days went by, something changed. Sky began to feel more comfortable around you. She began to show up at your office frequently, often bringing you coffee or offering to help with something, but at the same time, something was brewing. She had feelings for you, something she didn’t know how to deal with. She made excuses just to be closer, even if it was just for a few moments.

One night, you were in the office, immersed in work, without even noticing the time passing. The sound of the Hex Core hummed, and you were so focused on your notes that you barely noticed Sky entering the office. She hesitated at the door, watching you for a moment before walking to a stop a few meters away. The darkness of the night enveloped the room, and the lights of the laboratory only partially illuminated her face, giving an almost ethereal air to the scene.

"Are you still here?" Sky commented in a low tone, more like a statement than a question, waiting for you to look up and notice her.
