you and him started to become close friends but once you realized your crush on him you distanced yourself

you hated these sappy emotions, you were tough, not a lover. even so, he made your heart skip beats

he knocked on your dorm, ready to confront you on how you’ve been ignoring him

you answered

hey!

he smiled lightly

is everything uh- like okay with us? you’ve been sort of ignoring me, you know?

he tried to sound positive instead of how he actually felt, which was confusion
