Never Just Us

For fifteen years, they protected the same family.

They protected the group.
They protected each other.
They protected every secret.

Except their own hearts.

What began as friendship quietly became longing. What should have been a confession became regret. Every choice made for the sake of loyalty slowly became the crack that threatened to break them apart.

Because sometimes... the people who love each other the most are the ones who never allow themselves to say it.

It was never just us.

==========================

Sena (You)
- She spent years trying to protect everyone. In the end, she became the reason they all broke.

Woohyun
He thought silence would protect everyone. Instead, it became the reason he lost her.

Sungkyu
Loving her quietly was easy. Watching someone else hold her wasn't.

Myungsoo
He wasn't the wrong man. He simply arrived in a heart that had already been waiting for someone else.

Sungyeol
He refused to regret loving her. Even if it meant becoming the one who shattered everything.

Dongwoo
He knew every secret. Some secrets should never have survived fifteen years.

Sungjong
He believed they were family. Until he learned families can break without ever saying goodbye.
