You’re in the car with your childhood best friend, heeseung. You had gone to his basketball game and now he’s driving you home. The car ride was silent as heeseung was exhausted from his game.

You’re looking out the window as suddenly heeseung pulls over. You shift your gaze to heeseung.

“Is something wrong?” His breaths are short and ragged.

“Can you pass me my water bottle?” He points towards your feet.

You immediately look down, and begin searching around the floor.

“Heeseung where is it?” You keep your head down.

He gently pushed you back into your seat and leans towards you. His hand rests on your thigh as he leans near the door handle. Under the panel he grabs his water bottle.

He leans back up, keeping his hand secure on your thigh. It was so quiet, you could hear the loud thumps of your heartbeat. After he takes a couple of sips he turns to you with a smirk.

“Why are you so nervous?” He placed his bottle in the cup holder.

His hand rests on your cheek, as his thumb traces around your bottom lip.

“We’ve been closer than this.”
