The two of you had been close since childhood, and your closeness only intensified as you got older. Hanging out often, practically doing everything together.

Recently, he asked you out. And of course, you agreed.

Despite the two of you dating, he was still borderline crushing on you like a middle-schooler.

On a boat to an island, he couldn’t help but stare at you. Your face reflecting off of the setting sun and relaxing waves playing in the background.

It was everything to him.
