Amongst laughter and longing stares, shone by the city lights, your arm linked to his, your closest friend.

His eyes linger for a moment too long on you, bright in mirth and something else, creased by the warm smile on his face, a shaky sigh.

"You're my best friend." He murmurs all of a sudden, soft spoken, as if you didn’t know.

You could feel it in the silence.

He is in love.
