Short filmTranscript
00:00My boyfriend's esports team won the national championship.
00:03The lounge was still roaring when I pushed open the door.
00:06And my boyfriend was kissing another girl.
00:10Her lipstick was smeared across his mouth.
00:13Truth or dare, bro actually did it!
00:15Again!
00:16Someone was filming on a phone.
00:18Someone else poured more champagne into plastic cups.
00:21I stood there, holding the jacket I'd made for him.
00:25Hand-stitched MVP patch.
00:27Three weeks of work.
00:29Fingers with burn injuries.
00:32Mason!
00:33Your girlfriend's here.
00:37Relax, Olivia.
00:39It's just a game.
00:40Dude, Olivia saw you kiss Hayley.
00:43She wouldn't care.
00:44Olivia's not going anywhere.
00:46Exactly!
00:47She's obsessed with you!
00:48We were only playing truth or dare.
00:51If something was happening between us, it already would have happened.
00:54I'd heard that line before.
00:55Every time I asked why Hayley was always in his hotel room, why she called him after every match, why
01:02her texts mattered more than mine.
01:05I smiled back at her as I set the handmade jacket on the nearest table.
01:10Congratulations.
01:14Mason!
01:16You two deserve each other.
01:26Apologize to her!
01:28We're done.
01:30For one second, Hayley's mask slipped.
01:32Mason, it's okay.
01:33Just ask Olivia to calm down.
01:35I don't want drama.
01:39Fine.
01:40But don't come crying back when you realize you screwed up.
01:43Ah!
01:45Take your crap!
01:46The jacket I made for him.
01:48He threw it at me like garbage.
01:50Inside the room, I could still hear them laughing.
01:53How long until she comes back?
01:55Two weeks.
01:56Nah.
01:57One week tops.
01:57She'll come begging.
02:00You planning to stand here all night?
02:01It was Leo.
02:03Mason's former teammate.
02:04His biggest rival now, after the transfer last split.
02:09What's going on out here?
02:11I'm confessing to her.
02:15Is this some kind of joke?
02:18I was getting you out of an awkward situation.
02:21You're welcome.
02:22During my entire relationship with Mason, Leo had never liked me.
02:26At least, that's what I thought.
02:28Every time Mason wrapped an arm around me, Leo's expression would darken.
02:33Every time I showed up at their matches, he'd barely look at me.
02:36I always assumed he thought I wasn't good enough.
02:47Where'd she go?
02:49And what the hell is this about you confessing, Leo?
02:52I'd never heard Mason sound like that before.
02:55Tense.
02:55Almost angry.
02:56Because he didn't need to.
02:57I was always the one apologizing to him.
03:01So that's it, Olivia.
03:03You already had another guy lined up?
03:05Yeah!
03:06I like Leo.
03:07He's better than you at everything.
03:08I hung up before he could hear my voice crack.
03:11Then I remembered Leo was still standing there.
03:15You like me?
03:16I'm better than him at everything?
03:19Better how, exactly?
03:22You answered my phone?
03:24I was better at everything just because of that.
03:27I'm hungry.
03:28Starving.
03:29He let me change the subject.
03:31We ended up at a diner near the arena.
03:33I just drank.
03:34One glass, then another.
03:36By the third...
03:36Drowning your feelings.
03:37Tonight feels fake.
03:38Like a dream.
03:40It'd be a waste not to drink.
03:41I poured myself another glass.
03:43His eyes stayed on me all the time.
03:45But he didn't stop me.
03:47Later that night, we stumbled out onto the street.
03:55Across the street, a couple walked hand-in-hand toward a hotel.
03:59I watched them disappear into the lobby, then turned to look up at Leo.
04:09What?
04:13I'm not that kind of guy.
04:14But you like me.
04:16Weren't you literally about to confess?
04:20You serious right now?
04:21Maybe it was the alcohol.
04:22Maybe it was the humiliation from earlier still burning through me.
04:26All I could think was that he was asking too many questions.
04:29You're so annoying.
04:31You are a grown man, you know that.
04:34If I go upstairs with you, are you going to wake up tomorrow and pretend none of it happened?
04:37Yes.
04:39You smell nice?
04:44The hotel room door shut behind us.
04:46My back hit the wall gently.
04:48Leo stepped in close.
04:50One arm braced beside my head.
04:52You sure about this?
04:53His voice sounded rougher now.
04:55The dim light cut sharp shadows across his face.
04:58He was holding himself back by force.
05:00Instead of answering, I grabbed his collar and kissed him.
05:04That was all it took.
05:13Leo, slow down.
05:15I wasn't even sure if I meant it.
05:17Because the next second, I was pulling him closer again.
05:20He let out a low laugh against my neck, like he already knew I was gone.
05:25The rest of the night dissolved into scattered pieces.
05:28By the end, I was too exhausted to even keep my eyes open.
05:32Half asleep, I felt him pull me closer.
05:37Don't even think about running.
05:39Alcohol gave people courage.
05:42Unfortunately, it also disappeared by morning.
05:45The second I opened my eyes, last night crashed back into me all at once.
05:50My only thought was, run.
05:52Carefully, I slipped out from under the sheets.
05:55Leo was still asleep beside me.
05:58I stared for a second too long.
06:00Annoyingly attractive.
06:02By the time I reached my apartment building, my headache was unbearable.
06:07Then I stopped walking.
06:08Mason was standing outside my door.
06:10And Haley was beside him, holding onto his arm.
06:16You're finally back.
06:21Let go.
06:23I waited for you all night.
06:26You owe me an explanation.
06:28I almost laughed.
06:30An explanation?
06:31After kissing another girl in front of an entire team?
06:34Don't tell me you actually hooked up with Leo!
06:36The scene of last night flickered across my mind, lasting less than a second.
06:41But Mason noticed.
06:42So it's true.
06:44You'll sleep with any guy who gives you attention now?
06:48You think Leo actually likes you?
06:50He's using you!
06:53We broke up.
06:55So get that through your head.
07:02Mason, just let her go inside.
07:04She looks exhausted.
07:06The implication hit exactly how she intended.
07:09I thought he might actually hit me.
07:11Instead, he suddenly grabbed Haley and pulled her into his arms.
07:14Then he kissed her.
07:16Hard.
07:16Possessive.
07:17But the entire time, his eyes stayed locked on mine.
07:20You're going to regret this.
07:22I slipped into my apartment and slammed the door shut behind me.
07:25Then I locked it.
07:28I'd barely plugged my phone in before it started vibrating non-stop.
07:32Missed calls from Mason.
07:33More missed calls from Leo.
07:35Another message popped up.
07:37And before I could even process that one, slowly, a horrifying realization settled over me.
07:43I'd slept with someone terrifyingly persistent.
07:47Later that afternoon, I finally forced myself out to grab food.
07:52And Leo was standing outside my apartment.
07:56Done hiding?
07:59How did you even know I left?
08:02You've ignored 12 calls.
08:05I figured eventually you'd need food to survive.
08:10You don't have to take responsibility.
08:13Seriously, it's fine.
08:15I barely even remember what happened.
08:17I won't tell anyone.
08:18His laugh made me even more nervous.
08:21There was a dark bruise right below his neck.
08:24Don't remember?
08:26I nearly choked.
08:28Because suddenly I did remember.
08:30I wanted to throw myself off the building.
08:33Need me to help refresh your memory?
08:35Because the hotel definitely has security footage.
08:37No.
08:40I remember.
08:41You don't have to take responsibility for me.
08:43But I want you to.
08:45You left before I even woke up.
08:46What was I supposed to think?
08:48A one night stand?
08:51I was drunk last night.
08:53You're the one who said we should try.
08:55I thought you meant it.
08:56He wasn't angry in the way Mason got angry.
08:59Mason got loud.
09:00Cruel.
09:01Leo just looked disappointed.
09:03Like I'd genuinely hurt him.
09:05And somehow that felt worse.
09:07Leo looked away first.
09:08Forget it.
09:12I got the wrong idea.
09:14I wanted to stop him.
09:16But didn't know how.
09:18After that night, Leo and I slipped into something almost worse than conflict.
09:23We acted like nothing had happened.
09:25But Mason was different now.
09:27He didn't ignore me anymore.
09:29He circled.
09:30At a sponsor event, I felt him before I saw him.
09:37Heard you got dropped.
09:39The crowd around us was too loud.
09:41Too polished.
09:42Too fake.
09:44I already regretted coming.
09:47If your manager didn't drag you here, you'd probably be running back to Leo by now.
09:54Who I'm with isn't your problem anymore.
09:58It was a game.
10:00One kiss.
10:01You really blew everything up over that?
10:04Yeah.
10:06One night.
10:08One sleep.
10:10Did you really need to blow everything up?
10:17You slept with him?
10:23How could you just...
10:24Anyone would do, huh?
10:25Hayley appeared like she always did.
10:28Perfect timing.
10:30Mason.
10:31The team director needs you.
10:36Mason.
10:42Hayley didn't follow him right away.
10:46He's pretty great, isn't he?
10:50Good enough that you'd try to get him back?
10:52She sounded ridiculous, chasing a man who didn't even look at her unless he had to.
10:58If you're so confident, make him stay away from me.
11:03We both knew she couldn't.
11:05Mason didn't listen to anyone.
11:07A figure moved at the end of the hallway.
11:10Before I could focus, Hayley suddenly stumbled into me.
11:15Oh, sorry.
11:18There's a change of clothes upstairs.
11:20Please follow me.
11:21Something about it felt too convenient.
11:24But I followed anyway.
11:26The second floor room was quiet.
11:29Almost too well prepared.
11:31I frowned, scanning the space.
11:33Then I heard a lock turning.
11:35Click.
11:35My body reacted before my head.
11:45Are you planning to hit me with that?
11:47I panicked.
11:48Self-defense reflex.
11:52You look beautiful tonight.
11:55The room suddenly felt way too small.
11:58And way too warm.
12:00I always look good.
12:02That's not new information.
12:05You looked best that night.
12:10Check your dress pocket first.
12:13Team insignia.
12:15Internal files.
12:17Scrim data.
12:18Strategy breakdowns.
12:20Mason's organization.
12:22Everything clicked into place at once.
12:24I walked down the stairs in the new dress.
12:26The second I stepped into the hall,
12:28I felt eyes turn toward me.
12:30Hayley noticed me instantly.
12:32But she smoothed it out into polite indifference,
12:34like she hadn't been waiting.
12:37Miss,
12:38can I buy you a drink?
12:45I said I'm buying you a drink.
12:49Don't make this difficult.
12:51Let go.
12:52Let go.
12:53Ah!
12:54It was just a drink.
12:56No need to escalate.
12:58It's never just a drink when you can't take no for an answer.
13:08Our org is partnered with yours.
13:10Do you want me to explain what happens when that gets reported?
13:15Sorry.
13:16Sorry.
13:20Leo adjusted his cuff like nothing had happened.
13:23Like he hadn't just erased a problem in public view.
13:26I stood there, watching him.
13:29Mason once said,
13:30He's not right for you.
13:30He's not right for you.
13:31But maybe that wasn't it.
13:33Maybe Leo wasn't not right.
13:36Maybe he was just someone who didn't know how to be soft.
13:40Hey.
13:40His voice pulled me back.
13:42He had already walked over without me noticing.
13:43What are you thinking about?
13:45Nothing.
13:48You're different.
13:49Before I could ask what he meant,
13:51he was already turning away again,
13:53melting back into the event
13:55like he hadn't just changed the air around.
13:57The rest of the night felt endless.
14:00Too many conversations.
14:01Too many forced smiles.
14:03I was about to leave when Haley approached.
14:05This time, not alone.
14:07Beside her stood a woman in a structured suit.
14:10The director of Mason's team.
14:13Good evening, director.
14:20Behind her, Haley stood perfectly still.
14:23But her smile gave her away.
14:25Let me be direct.
14:30I've been informed that you've shown interest
14:33in our team's internal data.
14:36The flash drive.
14:38It was a setup.
14:40These days, any pretty girl thinks
14:42she can sell team secrets to the highest bidder.
14:45Pretending it's about passion
14:46when it's really just about money.
14:48You're too sweet, Haley.
14:50That's why people take advantage of you.
14:52I didn't take the flash drive.
14:53Mrs. Anderson,
14:54I was spilled on with wine earlier.
14:56Someone planted it in my dress.
14:58Isn't that right, Haley?
14:59For a fraction of a second,
15:01the director's eyes flicked to Haley.
15:03She was sharp enough to understand
15:05what was happening.
15:06But she disliked internal scandal
15:08even more than she cared about the truth.
15:10So she made her decision without hesitation.
15:13Security!
15:15This woman stole confidential material
15:17from my organization.
15:18Instantly, every head turned toward me.
15:25Isn't that Mason's ex?
15:27Steal data?
15:28Seriously?
15:28How did someone like her even get in here?
15:30Hey, Mason!
15:31Aren't you going to handle your girl?
15:34Mason stood a few steps away.
15:35Then, slowly, he glanced at me.
15:38Beg me.
15:40Discern, run.
15:41And maybe I'll fix this.
15:45Olivia,
15:46even if you really wanted the data,
15:49you shouldn't have stolen it.
15:59I didn't steal anything.
16:02And I've already called the police.
16:04The room froze.
16:06Minutes later,
16:06police officers arrived.
16:08But the confidence didn't last long.
16:10The security team checked the monitors.
16:12Empty logs.
16:14Missing footage.
16:15Clean deletion.
16:16No evidence.
16:17A setup too perfect.
16:19Mason appeared beside me again,
16:21like he'd been waiting for the moment
16:23things got unstable.
16:24Beg me,
16:25and I'll make it disappear.
16:30The evidence isn't gone.
16:33I had my team recover the deleted server files.
16:36You can clearly see who took the flash drive.
16:39And who bribed venue staff to frame my girlfriend.
16:44Director Anderson.
16:47I'll leave the decision to you.
16:50Haley's face drained of color instantly.
16:53Her confidence collapsed in real time.
16:55The director's expression changed,
16:57just slightly.
16:58Recognition.
16:59Then irritation.
17:00Then certainty.
17:01Security moved toward Haley immediately.
17:03She stumbled back,
17:05panicking,
17:05and ran straight toward Mason.
17:07Mason, help me!
17:09It wasn't me!
17:12Mason looked at her.
17:14Then he pulled his arm away and turned his back.
17:18You need to come with us.
17:22Mason didn't say a word.
17:24Haley followed them toward the door,
17:25her whole body trembling.
17:27I didn't feel satisfied.
17:28I just felt tired.
17:31Even sad for her.
17:32All of this for a man
17:33who couldn't even spare her a glance.
17:35At the door, she suddenly stopped.
17:38You were in that room together for so long.
17:41Who knows what happened in there.
17:44How else would you know
17:46the flash drive was in her dress?
17:47The implication hit the room like a shockwave.
17:50You couldn't wait, could you?
17:52Do I really need to explain
17:53what happens between me and my boyfriend
17:54to all of you?
17:57Boyfriend?
17:58You owe me an explanation.
18:00You broke up.
18:02On your birthday.
18:03Remember?
18:04That landed.
18:05Mason looked like he wanted to explode.
18:08I don't need to explain anything to you.
18:10We're done.
18:11I've said it a hundred times.
18:15I don't know how far we walked
18:17before Leo stopped.
18:18I looked down.
18:19My hand was still holding his.
18:21Sorry.
18:26For earlier.
18:27I'm sorry you got dragged into this.
18:29That familiar expression returned.
18:32Half amused, half unreadable.
18:34Not your boyfriend anymore?
18:38I thought someone just introduced us as a couple.
18:44It's, it's warm out.
18:46The words came out before I could stop them.
18:49It was winter.
18:50Freezing.
18:52But that night was warm too.
18:53I don't remember your face being this red then.
18:56This building is really nice.
18:58Look at all these lights.
18:59The designer must have worked so hard.
19:02Leo let me escape the topic.
19:04But he didn't push it.
19:05I had just gotten home when the doorbell rang.
19:08I opened the door with a smile.
19:10It died on my face.
19:12Mason.
19:12Just tell me the truth and I'll believe you.
19:16Nothing happened between you two, right?
19:18If you want, we can pretend that this ever happened.
19:21Was I not clear enough tonight?
19:23Have a nice life with Haley.
19:25I watched him through the peephole for a minute.
19:28Then I turned and walked inside.
19:30A week passed.
19:32Then two.
19:33Then three.
19:34I didn't reach out to him.
19:35Another face kept appearing in my mind.
19:38The way Leo held my hand.
19:40The way he kissed me.
19:42I think I finally understood how I felt.
19:45After that night, Leo kept appearing wherever I was.
19:49Why are you everywhere?
19:51Work.
19:52My org is scrumming with yours.
19:54I came specifically to review the schedule.
19:58Funny coincidence.
19:59There was no way this was a coincidence.
20:02The scrim schedule had been set for weeks.
20:04I handed the folder back without a word.
20:07I've been chasing someone for a while now and she doesn't even realize I'm trying.
20:13Don't you feel bad for me?
20:14If this is about that night, you really don't have to.
20:16It's not about that night.
20:19I like you.
20:20I've liked you for a long time.
20:22What Leo said in the elevator stuck with me for days.
20:25But I still hesitated.
20:27At the hospital, I was holding my test results.
20:29When I looked up and saw Leo across the waiting room.
20:33He didn't see me.
20:34There was a girl with him.
20:35She was different from me.
20:37Bright.
20:38Cheerful.
20:39The kind of person who lit up a room.
20:41Then he glanced in my direction.
20:43His face went cold.
20:45Liar.
20:46Jerk.
20:47What liar?
20:48What jerk?
20:49What did you do to make her mad?
20:51She's clearly upset.
20:52Don't forgive him easily.
20:54He needs to work for it.
20:55I stood there, totally lost.
20:57Sis, my brother has liked you for so long.
20:59I can't believe I finally get to meet you.
21:03Why were you at the hospital?
21:04Are you okay?
21:05Why didn't you say something?
21:07Genology?
21:07You're not-
21:08He crouched down right there in the middle of the waiting room.
21:11And leaned toward my stomach.
21:13I'm not pregnant.
21:14In the car, he still looked disappointed.
21:17We'd just gotten out in Mason.
21:20You sleep with my girlfriend?
21:22We're broken up.
21:23How many times do I have to say it?
21:27It was my idea.
21:28I kissed him first.
21:30His face went through disbelief, hurt, rage.
21:34Olivia, please.
21:35Please don't do this.
21:38I already have a boyfriend.
21:42So does that mean you're finally acknowledging me?
21:45Because if you're only saying this because I got punched...
21:53Do you actually like me?
21:54I realized then how much uncertainty I'd put him through.
21:58I like you.
21:59I, Olivia, like you, Leo.
22:04Leo wanted to go after Mason.
22:06I held him back.
22:08There was no point in fighting.
22:09I called the police instead.
22:11They picked Mason up for harassment.
22:13He didn't come near me again.
22:15I heard later it was because of some sponsorship deal between our orgs.
22:19He'd been ordered to stay away or be benched for the season.
22:23Good riddance.
22:24Being with Leo was different.
22:25I never saw Mason or Haley again.
22:28I heard Haley had been traded to another team.
22:31She'd gone to Mason before the announcement, begging him to stop it.
22:34Not my problem.
22:35If it weren't for you, she'd still be with me.
22:37Mason had never loved anyone but himself.
22:40Leo was lying on my stomach.
22:42How about the beach for the honeymoon?
22:44The beach sounds perfect.
22:46Anywhere was perfect.
22:47As long as Leo was there.
