Painted Waves | HyunChan

Hyunjin was used to being admired, his talents and charm the subject of countless whispers. But his heart was not moved by the attention of others. It was fixated on one person-Chan, the swimmer who seemed untouchable in his perfection.

To the world, Chan was the epitome of confidence and strength. But Hyunjin saw something different-a quiet vulnerability that no one else noticed. He'd spent countless hours sketching and painting Chan from afar, capturing fleeting moments that no one else could. The way he laughed with his friends, the soft expression when his guard was down-these were the things Hyunjin treasured.

He kept his feelings hidden, his admiration a silent obsession, unsure of what it would become. But with every glance, every brushstroke, Hyunjin couldn't help but wonder how long he could stay in the shadows, quietly in love with someone who would never know.
