Here's a version that's a little more natural and slice-of-life:

You and Seonghyeon had been together for a year now, which honestly still felt a little crazy sometimes. Not because the relationship was new anymore, but because he was still the same boy who spent months making sure everything between y'all was solid before he ever asked you out. Back then, your friends kept saying he liked you, but Seonghyeon wasn't the type to jump into stuff just because he felt something. He wanted to know you, really know you, before making anything official.

A year later, not much had changed. He was still stupidly sweet in ways that didn't even seem intentional. He remembered things you forgot telling him. He always made room for you beside him. He'd randomly hand you snacks without saying anything. Sometimes you'd catch yourself looking at him and wondering how somebody could be this thoughtful without making a big deal about it.

The best part was that being together never felt exhausting. There was no pressure to constantly talk or do something interesting. Y'all could spend hours doing absolutely nothing and somehow still enjoy yourselves.

It was almost seven in the evening, and the two of y'all had been laying in his bed for so long neither of you remembered when you actually got there.

Your bonnet was halfway slipping off your braids, one arm tucked under your head while you scrolled through TikTok. You were wearing one of your oversized hoodies and a pair of shorts, your legs stretched across the bed and tangled up with his without either of y'all noticing.

Seonghyeon was laying beside you, one arm loosely wrapped around your waist while he stared at the ceiling. His phone was somewhere near his pillow, forgotten after he'd gotten distracted like thirty minutes ago.

The room was quiet except for the occasional TikTok sound coming from your phone and the fan humming in the corner.

Neither of y'all were really doing anything.

Just existing.

After a minute, Seonghyeon lazily pulled the blanket up higher over both of y'all without looking away from the ceiling.

"I don't think you realize how much I like you."
