[hey yall i tried to do something with kai's pov. hope it'll be interesting]
Scene: Kai’s Room – The Night After
The glow from his laptop screen lit up half his face.
His fingers hovered above the keyboard, unmoving.
He hadn’t typed a word.
Not since he got home.
Not since she said, “Don’t kiss me.”
That phrase had been looping in his head like a cursed melody—soft, teasing, and completely damning.
Kai leaned back in his chair, exhaled slowly, and ran a hand through his hair.
“Don’t kiss me.”
It wasn’t rejection.
It was permission.
For all the yearning in between.
And f*ck… he was burning in it.
He finally clicked open a new track—raw file. Just empty silence.
He plugged in his MIDI keyboard. Let his hands fall onto the keys.
But they didn’t play a melody.
They played her.
A low, echoing thump—like heartbeat against ribcage.
Then a flickering high note, barely there—like the glint in her eyes when she smirked at him.
And then silence.
Because how do you write about someone who made you feel everything without touching you once?
He sat there, motionless, jaw clenched.
She hadn’t messaged him.
Not even a text. Not even a "made it home too."
And still…
“You’re gonna ruin me.”
He’d said it like a joke.
But God—it was already happening.
He leaned forward, hands pressing into his desk, forehead resting on his arm.
And then his phone buzzed.
Moon 🥁
you still up?
He didn’t even have to think.
Kai 🎧
always
you okay?
No reply.
Two minutes.
Four.
Then—
Moon 🥁
i can’t sleep
the quiet’s too loud
He smiled.
Kai 🎧
want me to send you something?
Moon 🥁
only if it’s not finished
i like the messy stuff
the stuff no one else gets to hear
And that.
That right there?
Was how she slipped deeper under his skin.
He dragged the half-finished beat into a folder, exported it, and sent it.
No polish. No effects. Just raw.
Just her.
Kai 🎧
it’s called “moon draft 1”
it’s not much
just… you
Moon 🥁
i’m listening.
He stared at the message.
At the little "typing..." bubble that flickered… and disappeared.
She was quiet after that.
But he knew she heard it.
He could feel it.
And somewhere across town, maybe with that hoodie still on, Moon was lying in bed—letting a song that sounded like her undo her slowly.
[well that was fun 😼]
