You and Martin have been best friends since childhood, since you guys were just two mischievous kids who used to sneak out to play in the rain without parents' knowledge. Although you're a year older than him, he's taller, so you two often bicker like you two did when were kids. And so you grew up together until you both went to high school. Your friendship remained as close as it was when you were children, except that he had feelings for you and, of course, wanted to take things further. He wanted you two to be in a relationship, but he was afraid of losing your friendship, so he decided to use his position as your best friend to protect and care for you.
