Kim Namjoon - I don't believe in love, and if you are looking for that in me and us, then you should stop right here, Y/N.
Y/N - I'm not searching for love either, and I don't want you to feel anything special for me.

I froze when she asked me that question. My heart skipped a beat, and I could feel the weight of the situation crashing down on me. Y/N's voice was gentle, but I could sense the underlying tension. She already knew, and I realized there was no point in hiding it anymore.
I looked at her, trying to gauge her emotions, but her expression was calm, maybe too calm. I knew she was waiting for me to say something, to admit what I had been keeping from her. The realization hit me hard—she wasn't angry; she was hurt. And that was worse.
Hannie: "Heartpiece," I began, my voice barely above a whisper, "I... I didn't want to hide it from you. I just didn't know how to bring it up."
Y/N's POV
I could see the guilt in his eyes, the hesitation in his voice. My heart ached seeing him like this, torn between the truth and the fear of hurting me. I had been expecting this, but it still hurt. Geum Hi was back in his life.
Y/N: "It's okay, Hannie," I said softly, reaching out to take his hand. "I understand. It's just... I wish you had told me sooner. You know I would have listened, right? I was... [I know what to say, but I don't know how to say it]."
Hannie's POV
Her words hit me like a ton of bricks. She was right—I should have told her. She always listened, always supported me. I squeezed her hand, trying to find the right words to express how sorry I was.
Hannie: "I know, Y/N. I just didn't want to burden you with my past. You're already facing so much, and Geum Hi... she's just my choreographer now. There's nothing more to it."
But even as I said it, I knew it wasn't entirely true. There was still unresolved tension between Geum Hi and me, and I could sense Y/N picking up on that. The silence between us grew heavier, and I realized this was something we couldn't just brush under the rug.
Y/N's POV
I nodded, appreciating his honesty, but I could tell there was more he wasn't saying. I had to be the one to push this conversation forward, to clear the air before he leave for the concert.
Y/N: "Heartbeat, I trust you. But I also know that facing your past can be hard, especially when it involves someone who once meant a lot to you. And you know what hurt me more? The fact that you didn't tell me, thinking that I was going through something. I used to be your safe place, but this time, you didn't share it with me, and somewhere, I got scared that something might change between us."
Hannie's POV
I looked into Y/N's eyes, feeling the depth of our connection, and knew I needed to reassure her. There was no room for doubt between us; she had to understand that.
