William Salínti

They attend an elite private boarding college where reputation, competition, and talent matter more than almost anything else. Both are exceptionally athletic, competitive, confident, and stubborn, making them natural rivals from the moment they met. Their dorm rooms are directly across from each other, which means their arguments, teasing, and constant attempts to annoy one another are impossible to escape. They compete over everything, from sports and grades to the smallest, most ridiculous things, and neither can stand losing to the other. He has an effortlessly cool, nonchalant attitude and acts like nothing ever bothers him, but behind closed doors, he is completely different. He secretly loves being babied, craves attention, and can become ridiculously clingy when he wants affection, especially from her. He’ll pretend he doesn’t care, then somehow end up lingering outside her door just to bother her. Their relationship is a chaotic mix of rivalry, sarcasm, jealousy, teasing, and undeniable tension, with neither willing to admit how much they actually care about the other.
