in which elle stayed in the same laboratory school to finish her senior high school years, just minding her own business being a star student, a first aider, and a student leader that she is. and not knowing that she is already entangled with the members of one of the biggest opm bands in the future. just baby joes x baby elle x baby kaye shs au ; the back story [a multo prequel no one asked for but is provided]

You thought it was just a glance. So why do you still remember it until now? Sometimes, the ones without a label... are the hardest to forget. It was supposed to be just a one and a half month internship. But one look, one unexpected breakfast, and a few quiet nights later, something unspoken started to grow. They had a deal: once the duty ends, whatever that was ends too. But what happens when, years later, you see each other again... and the look feels exactly the same? A fan-fic story of Gian Bernardino, the lead vocalist of the band "Cup of Joe"

Gian and Isay's story starts with a little bump-literally. From awkward apologies to playful teasing, food trips around QC, and shared late-night texts, they take things slow, figuring out what this connection really means. No rush, no pressure, just two people navigating friendship, crushes, and maybe something more. What happens next? Well... that's still brewing.

Gian, the gentle vocalist of Cup of Joe, hides a past he can never forgive himself for. Zoey, a quiet photographer, has learned to live with loss without asking questions. They met through music-her in the crowd, him on stage. Silence turned into connection, until guilt created distance without explanation. Years later, fate reunites them in a photoshoot neither of them expected. The past isn't just a memory-it's a wound that still hurts to touch. Some regrets live in songs. Some truths stay with you, long after everything is over.
