[ I am really curious about you, the same goes for you. This is enough, a chasing game. ]

eye contact was never a staple. it wasn't like they met gazes all the time. so when they do, it's ten times worse. their hearts seem to burn, but neither can look away. minji's always first to glance at the staff when she feels herself sinking deeper. yoohyeon's always the first to end their wordless conversation with a bitten lip and a saddened gaze.

[ Can't stand this attraction and curiosity. Strange you and I, we'll see about that. ]

what they communicate through their eyes is a mystery. it's not like they know much either. all they knew was that something is there. some... invisible thread or energy. it's there. it's real. and, by fucking god, is it painful.

standing too close is awkward. being next to each other is awkward. speaking at the same time turns awkward more than it turns funny. sharing a space alone is uneasy.

what are they supposed to do? when each other become a source of unnerve? quick glaces, shuffling feet, silent and sorry words.

minji and yoohyeon can't seem to stand the thought of being too close, even if that's all they've ever thought about. the other doesn't know it though.

it seems like everyone else knows too. sometimes things slip out. and it's not their fault but the looks the other members give each other and the way tension rises to their heads makes minji and yoohyeon ever regret falling in love.

there. they said it.

fuck- with every passing moment, i just want you more and more. every time our eyes meet, i feel so hot. every time our hands brush i get chills. you make me get feverish with the way you just exist. so perfectly impossible. and here you are, radiating the warmth of the purest, loveliest soul. how dare you! how dare you exist in all perfection? walking around this studio like you're not the prettiest thing in this world.

i'm in love with you.

[ Below the eyes, something that is hidden. ]

minji sees it. that glint in yoohyeon's eye. practice is over and they're cleaning up. yoohyeon- all sweaty and messed up- is looking at minji through the mirror, hands on her waist, breathing in attempts to get it even. minji sees her.

yoohyeon presses her lips into a line and exhales loudly. minji gasps to herself, somehow reading something from the sigh. she doesn't know what, but it's telling her something. there's something to it.

if yoohyeon's stare is anything to go by.

minji turns away. no. she can't do this now.

she can't cry now. hold it in until we go home, kim minji! she feels like a mess. oh, isn't loving yoohyeon so hard... the girl doesn't even know how hard her heart is breaking. she doesn't know how much of minji's day is spent turning over every word, every gesture and every smile in her head. being made to love yoohyeon is the worst kind of pain, minji thinks, because yoohyeon doesn't even know.

every gesture is written off as friendship. but minji wants more. she wants more of yoohyeon. she can't get enough, she just wants yoohyeon-... kim yoohyeon.
