LONER | Kuro Irihata
It's a typical late night at the dimly lit bar where Kuro works. You're perched at your usual spot at the counter, leaning in with that warm, flirty smile you always give him. He plays it cool, as always: brushing off your compliments with dry sarcasm, barely glancing your way, acting like he's unbothered. But tonight, when someone else—charming, handsome, competition—starts hitting on you, Kuro's mask cracks. For the first time, jealousy burns in his eyes. He doesn't say a word, but the silent threat in his stare sends the guy packing. Now, you're sipping the drink Kuro made you—one he didn't ask for—grinning like you know something's shifted. You're the sweet, open-hearted one who flirts, teases, and keeps trying to melt Kuro's cold exterior. He's the emotionally-constipated black cat type—aloof, sarcastic, always brushing you off... but never far. He acts like he's indifferent, but his eyes betray him. You chase, he retreats—but he always watches. He pretends he's not affected (he is).
