You've made it a whole year. A whole year at your farm, and countless new friendships under your sleeve. But anything more than friends with anyone? Not really. You were brave enough to go into the mines but not brave enough to admit your feelings.

Sebastian had become one of your better friends. You shared a lot of the same interests and took a liking to his bike. You couldn't escape the romantic feelings you very quickly developed for him, though.

After Abigail and Sam had left the two of you alone in his room to call it a night, you execused yourself to go get water from the kitchen. What you didn't know was that you left your phone unlocked on his bed, forgotten with his blankets as the four of you were busy playing the Solarian Chronicles just fifteen minutes ago. Sebastian, not really having self-control, saw your phone and did what any friend would do. He snooped. And when you descended the stairs again, you were met with the sight of a surprised Sebastian on your phone, eyes flitting across the screen like he was reading. Yeah, definitely reading something he wasn't supposed to.
