In the chaotic, fast-paced world of university life, Rin has perfected the art of being invisible. Navigating campus in absolute silence, she relies on her iPad, quick sketches, and her fiercely protective best friend, Hana, to get through the day. Rin doesn't mind the quiet life she's built in the back rows of lecture halls; it's safe, predictable, and keeps the world from looking too closely.
Then there's Nishimura Riki.
As the university's star dancer, Ni-ki is a literal storm on the dance floor and trouble in the corridors. With a sharp edge, an untouchable bad-boy reputation, and a trail of eyes following his every move, he is everything Rin tries to avoid. He lives in a world of thumping bass, flashing studio lights, and constant noise. They belong in entirely different universes, until a chaotic twist in campus scheduling forces them into the same orbit.
While the rest of the world is too loud to notice the subtle ways Rin expresses herself, Ni-ki starts paying attention. Intrigued by the quiet girl who refuses to give him the time of day, he begins to notice the slight tilt of her head, the sharp glare in her eyes, and the way she uses her art to speak volumes. Slowly, the guarded bad boy drops his shield. He doesn't want her to change her quiet world to fit his loud one; he wants to learn the unique rhythm of her silence.
When the pressures of campus life and overwhelming crowds threaten to break Rin's carefully constructed peace, Ni-ki steps in, proving that under the tough exterior lies a devotion that is fiercely protective, entirely consuming, and strictly reserved for her.
"I got you, love bug. I promise you I'm not letting go."
