𝐒𝐨𝐨𝐧 Denise Vleur Tuazon has always been at the top. From his first year to fourth year in junior high, he is known for one thing-consistency. High honors, perfect recitations, and a reputation built on discipline, intelligence, and quiet control. He doesn't compete to prove himself; he simply stays ahead. But everything changes when he enters STEM 11 - Roosevelt, a new environment filled with unfamiliar faces and people who don't yet know how sharp he really is. There, he meets Oscar Wilde Seferico. Their first encounter is immediate friction-a hallway collision where Oscar walks away without an apology, leaving Denise offended in a way he can't quite explain. That small moment turns into something bigger when Oscar unexpectedly becomes class president, while Denise is assigned as vice president. Forced into constant proximity through class responsibilities, the two are pushed into an uneasy partnership at the center of STEM 11 - Roosevelt's leadership. Denise, structured and unyielding, is constantly challenged by Oscar's calm unpredictability and effortless confidence. Oscar, on the other hand, seems unimpressed by Denise's intelligence and authority-at least at first. But as days pass, distance starts to shrink. Through shared tasks, quiet moments, and unexpected interactions, Oscar slowly begins to see beyond Denise's sharp edges. What once felt like arrogance turns into something more grounded, more human. His indifference softens-not all at once, but gradually-shaped by moments where Denise isn't just the "perfect top student," but someone real, stubborn, and quietly compelling. Denise, in return, finds himself constantly noticing Oscar in ways he never intended to. What starts as irritation turns into awareness... and something far more complicated than competition.

In his 21 years of living, Enzo has mastered one thing; gaslighting himself into believing he only loves women. He's not gay - at least, that's what he keeps telling himself. He goes to bars, accepts every party invite, flirts with women, maybe even take them home - proof, or so he thinks, that he's straight. He's not homophobic, not at all. He just hates the way people whisper rumors about him having flings with men. But the more he forces the lie, the shakier it gets. Then one night at a party, he meets Kiyo-a man too gorgeous to ignore, as if he'd fallen straight from the sky. With a face like an angel and eyes that pull him in like a magnet, Kiyo is everything Enzo swore he wasn't drawn to. And yet, he can't look away. Now, Enzo is caught between denial and desire. Will he keep lying to himself? Or will he finally give in to the pull of the one person he swears he shouldn't want?
