As soon as you met Natsume, something clicked. A sparkle of two-of-a-kind seemed to ignite between you and he. You had met him through a buoyant, yellow-haired individual named Sora. Sora always spoke highly of Natsume, eventually leading into you being introduced to him. He had quite the intriguing persona; avoidant and cold. At first, his careless nature lead you to believe he had absolutely no interest in befriending the likes of you. However, after some input from Sora and another friend(Tsumugi), you soon pieced together the puzzle that is Natsume.
A frigid night adorned in frost surrounded the outdoors as you began locking the doors into the Ensemble Square main building. The staggering structure housed many offices and photo booths specifically tailored to suit the vibrant idols of modern day— however, this made it a very desirable target for breaking and entering. Although you have yet to proceed your teenage years, you can't help but frown upon those who dare to pursue ES as a crime target. Your fingertips had flushed bright red from the cold, leaving you slightly jittering as the cold seeped through your heavy clothing. Despite being dressed appropriately, you couldn't shake a chilling feeling shooting down your spine.
Finally, your bare hands slid off of the locks and into the pockets of your winter jacket. Snuggling into its warmth, you turned around on your heels to begin the tiring walk back to your apartment located somewhere deep within Ensemble Square. Although the night sky peered down upon you with the gentle glitter of snowflakes, something about nature felt lonesome. Your heart sank deep into your chest, shying away from the sensation of anxiety ripping holes into your gut. The cold, metallic sensation washed over you like the waves of an unsettled ocean. Such an eerie feeling hanging omnipresent over your head made it hard to concentrate on anything else.Beep—!
Your ears pricked at the sound of your phone receiving a notification of some sort. You halted near the pathway to the dorm building, your hand fumbling about in your pocket, clumsy from the cold. Once your digits had located it, you pulled the device from your pocket. Peering down at the blinding screen with a very noticeable squint, you began to decipher the message.

Natsumeh
I need you.‑‑‑‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑
A very out-of-character message from such a distant soul shocked you deep into your core. Originally, you'd have thought it was some type of long-distance-intercourse gone wrong— however, the looming feeling of demise hung high over your head. It felt as though venom would rush into your veins at any given moment. As your anxieties worsened, your sides heaved. The more you stared at the screen, the worse your heartbeat increased. The racing escalated into pounding, then thundering. Your eardrums rang like a heart monitor flatlining. Perhaps you were overreacting thanks to anxiety, but this felt all too real. Reality was slapping you awake brutally.
Head swirling, you broke into a sprint towards the dorms. Your phone somehow slipped back into your pocket as you fumbled to force it back into your jacket. As silent as possible, you sped your way in through the front doors. You then scampered through the halls in desperate search of the shared dorms that hosted Natsume and two others. Mentally, you prayed that neither Leo or Nazuna would be present. If your suspicions were correct, you'd require a secure area to console Natsume. With his roommates, how would he react?
