It's a party, and two people are in a conversation across the room. They keep sneaking glances at each other, making intense eye contact, but when their friends approach, they pretend to be totally uninterested.
This scenario is all about the awkward tension that arises when both parties are clearly attracted to each other but choose to act oblivious.
Imagine the inner dialogue: 'We're just friends,' they insist, while their hearts are screaming, 'Text me already!' It's almost like they're in a rom-com, but with worse timing.
