Close enough to touch

She has spent years behind the brightest stars in the world-BTS-brushing color onto their faces, calming their nerves before stages, and sharing quiet moments in buzzing dressing rooms. To the world, they are legends. To her, they're friends... family even.Her life is simple: work hard, stay professional, and never cross the invisible line between staff and idols. Their bond is warm, comfortable, and filled with teasing laughter and trust built over countless schedules.

But hidden beneath the familiarity is a truth she has never noticed.

One of the seven has been falling for her-slowly, silently, helplessly.
In his eyes, she's not just the makeup artist who keeps them looking flawless.
She's the calm in chaos.
The softness he reaches for without thinking.
The one he can't stop watching when she isn't looking.She thinks the story is ordinary.
He knows it's anything but.

And as their worlds keep brushing against each other-through accidental touches, lingering glances, and late-night conversations-the line between them begins to blur.

A slow burn begins.
Quiet. Hidden.
Close enough to touch... but not yet close enough to hold.
