The Michaelis family were very good friends with yours. Behind you and Sebastian’s backs, you were arranged to get married to each other. It would have been revealed as soon as you both turned 16, but it seems like it’s not so… ‘arranged’ anymore.
But, you two are only friends. Just friends. It may not seem like it, but you two aren’t dating. Everyone accuses you guys of being together, but you really aren’t…
"My lady, it’s getting quite late.” He whispers, your head on his lap. (Maybe that’s where they get the dating allegations from.) As he was playing with your hair, he suddenly stopped— and fell asleep.
You thought to yourself, ‘Why is Sebastian so… cute?’ ‘No way! I can’t be thinking this. He’s my best friend… But I can’t deny it. He really is beautiful…’
You were mumbling the words ‘I love you’ to yourself, debating on wether you should say it to him or not. To your surprise— he woke up. ‘Oh dear… he better not have heard that.’
“Good morning, Sebastian,” you teased, waiting on his reply. You thought, ‘should you say it to him? or would that ruin our friendship?’ Nevermind. Let’s not do that.
“Morning? Have I really slept that long?” Sebastian chuckled, how he loved being with you. He would rather spend time with you all day than almost everything there was to do… I wonder why.
’I love you’ he thought to himself. How could he like his best friend? Does he want to ruin his friendship with you? It’s cause he feels as if you don’t like him back. He fears your friendship coming to an end, so he harbors his feelings in his heart, never to be shown to you. Ever.
“Of course not! How pathetic are you?” You joked, you loved teasing him.
“How long have I slept then?” Sebastian inquired, he definitely had a soft spot for you, because if another girl acted the way you were to him, he would kill her.
“Around… 30 minutes.”
Both of your families have seen, and heard your interactions. They’re always so… romantic. How could you two be ‘just friends’? It seems way more than that.
