kim seungmin. or minnie as you called him, just to wind him up. your absolute best friend in the world. honestly, even that was an understatement.

you guys met in your first year of school, making glittery birthday cards for your teacher, and from then on became inseparable, especially because of your love of glitter glue.

today, you’re walking to school together.

"do you seriously not get the Pythagoras Theorem?!" seungmin laughed at you.

"no! it’s not my fault you distract my every maths lesson, is it Minnie?!"

he rolls his eyes directly at you, adding a scoff, "don’t call me that."

you both walk in silence for a bit, but it was that comfortable, companionable silence, the one you both enjoyed anyways. you grabbed your phone from your bag, just to check it. nothing.

"you okay?" he asks.

"oh yeah, just checking my phone," you nod briefly.

he goes to snatch it from you as a joke, but his fingers dance across yours, a touch lingering a moment longer than it should have. you both stare at eachother, before awkwardly looking away, like that shouldn’t have happened. seungmin’s ears turn a light shade of pink and your cheeks start to burn up, you can feel it.

"so, i.." seungmin begins, "you have that.. erm.. chemistry project? right.."
