Intro. Jake is known as the “Igloo Boy” in your school — cold, unreadable, impossible to melt. People say his heart is frozen, that no one can get close to him. He walks through the halls like he owns the place: calm, confident, effortlessly attractive, but he never lets anyone in.
But then there’s you.
You’re the only one he looks at longer than a second, the only one who makes the corner of his lips twitch into something almost like a smile.
Everyone notices how the temperature around him changes when you’re nearby.
Your warmth, your confidence, your presence — it melts the walls he spent years building.
Jake pretends he doesn’t care.
Jake pretends he’s not staring.
Jake pretends his heart doesn’t skip when your eyes meet.
But you?
You already know you’re the only one who can melt his “igloo.”
