Male Nico; Face: Warm, expressive features. Defined jawline, soft but confident smile, and a naturally flirty look. Has a small bandage on his cheek in the exact spot as the avatar — from practice, not a fight (at least that’s what he says). Eyes: Dark brown, bright, and full of energy. He looks like he’s always in the middle of a joke or about to start one. Hair: Short curly hair, tight coils, shaped up clean. The type he brushes with his hands when he’s nervous. Build: Lean athletic build — toned arms, slim waist, runner’s legs. He clearly plays sports and takes it seriously. Style: Designer jerseys or streetwear tees (like Balenciaga, Nike Tech, etc.) Cross/chain necklaces he never takes off Light distressed jeans Clean sneakers (he is weirdly protective over them) Piercings: Diamond stud earrings in both ears. Voice: Smooth, playful, medium-deep, sounds like he could talk his way out of detention and into trouble. Charismatic as hell. He’s friendly with everyone, teachers love him, and half the school has a crush on him. Loyal. Treats Eli like she’s his entire world. Very protective, not possessive. Competitive. When it comes to football? He’s a dog. Fast, relentless, and obsessed with winning. Playful. Constant teasing, playful smirks, tapping Eli’s chin, poking Dre during practice, etc. Confident but grounded. He’s good-looking and he knows it, but he’s not a jerk about it. Emotionally mature (for a teenage boy). Communicates well, cares deeply, and apologizes when he messes up. Good friend. Dre and Nico argue, roast each other, talk trash all the time — but on the field or in real life, they’re basically brothers.

High school.
It wasn’t always like this.
When they were four years old, Dre had walked right up to him on the first day of preschool with the biggest smile imaginable.
“My name’s Dre!”
Then he’d hugged him.
Little Kav had immediately shoved him away.
“I don’t like hugs.”
“…Oh.”
“And you’re annoying.”
He’d even stuck his tongue out.
Most kids would’ve cried.
Dre had laughed.
“You’re funny.”
“…”
From that day on…
Dre followed him everywhere.
⸻
Elementary school became years of the same routine.
Dre asking to play.
Kav pretending he didn’t want to.
Dre sitting next to him anyway.
Kav secretly waiting for him every morning.
Then middle school happened.
Football.
Popularity.
New friends.
Dre became the kid everyone wanted around.
He still waved to Kav in the halls…
But there were fewer lunches together.
Less talking.
Less of…
them.
It was sometime during eighth grade that Kav realized something terrifying.
He missed him.
Not because they were childhood friends.
Because…
He liked him.
A lot.
Which was incredibly unfortunate.
“So…” Eli whispered now, leaning against the refreshment table.
“You’ve stared at Dre for… twenty minutes.”
“I have not.”
“You literally sighed.”
“I breathed.”
“You sighed romantically.”
“I’m gonna punch you.”
“Dre!”
One of the football players jogged over.
“Dude!”
Dre looked over.
“Can someone help me with this?”
His tie hung completely undone around his neck.
“I have no clue what I’m doing.”
The football players all shrugged.
“I can’t tie one.”
“Me neither.”
“Damn.”
Before Kav could stop himself…
“I know how.”
Everyone looked over.
“…Come here.”
They ended up tucked into a quiet corner away from the dance floor.
Kav stood directly in front of Dre.
“So useless,” he muttered, grabbing both ends of the tie.
“How do you not know this?”
“No one’s ever showed me.”
“…Seriously?”
“Mhm.”
Kav rolled his eyes.
“Hopeless.”
Even while insulting him…
His fingers were gentle.
He looped the fabric.
Pulled it through.
Adjusted the collar.
Dre stayed unusually quiet.
Mostly because…
Kav was close.
Really close.
He could smell his cologne.
See the tiny freckle near his jaw.
Watch the concentration on Kav’s face as he worked.
“…Almost done,” Kav mumbled.
His eyelashes were stupidly long.
His lips—
Kav gave the tie one last firm tug.
“There.”
He patted the knot flat.
“Learn how to tie it yourself.”
“I’m not doing this shit again.”
“…”
“…”
Neither of them moved.
Dre looked down at him.
Kav finally noticed how close they were.
“…What?”
Dre’s eyes flickered to Kav’s lips before meeting his eyes again.
He leaned in…
Just a little.
Kav froze.
His brain completely shut off.
Wait.
Is he…?
No way.
He’s actually—
“DRE!”
The moment shattered.
“Dude, come take pictures with us!”
Another football player waved him over from across the gym.
Dre blinked.
“…Coming.”
He looked back at Kav one last time.
Gave the smallest nod.
Then walked away.
Leaving Kav standing there.
Completely broken.
