                                      — ˗ˋ ୨୧ ˊ˗ —

he smiled at him. namjoon smiled at him.

god, he was just falling even harder.

"what is he doing to me," seokjin thought. he knew he shouldn't be in love with a man. he was told that's not right his whole life.

but he also couldn't stop smiling every time he just thought of namjoon.

was there anyone that could help him? did he need help? this couldn't be normal.

so therefore, he decided to call his friend jimin.

                                      — ˗ˋ ୨୧ ˊ˗ —

"hyung?"

"hello jimin,"

"ahh!"

they hadn't talked in a while. seokjin realised first now how much he had missed jimin's voice.

"i need your help," seokjin said, "i think i'm in love,"

"WHAT!" jimin yelled over the phone, while jin quickly turned his volume down.

"jimin stop screaming!" he whispered loudly.

"aww you're in love, jin!" he could hear that jimin was smiling. "why do you need help?"

"it's a boy,"

jimin went quiet.

awkward.

"you're in love with a boy?"

"listen jimin, i don't want to be in love with a boy. that's why i need your help!"

"oh, maybe then you can try... distracting yourself, maybe?"

seokjin knew there was no way he could distract himself from namjoon. namjoon was all he thought about. every hour, every minute, every second. all the time.

"how do i distract myself?"

"hmm..." jimin thought about it for a while. "is there a girl you could see yourself dating? a girl you could possibly fall in love with?"

seokjin had never thought about that. he could make himself love a girl, then he would forget about his feelings for namjoon.

but he was definitely not going to stop visiting the library. he wasn't going to stop seing namjoon. they could be friends.

                                     — ˗ˋ ୨୧ ˊ˗ —

seokjin was at the library again. today he was planning on talking to namjoon.

but in a friend way.

god, it hurt him so bad to only think of namjoon as a "friend". he knew he still had romantic feelings for him, and it was probably bad to go see him again.

but he couldn't stop himself. he was addicted to namjoon.

he walked inside the library, and this time he walked up to namjoon.

"hello," seokjin said.

"hi," he responded quietly.

he could see namjoon's face go red when he sat down next to him.

"what are you reading?" jin asked

namjoon handed him his book, not making eye contact.

seokjin looked at the book. "eleanor & park" it said. jin knew that book, of course. he was a sucker for enemies to lovers books.

"oh, i know this book!" seokjin said. "it's one of my favorites,"

namjoon looked down at him for the first time today. and then he smiled. namjoon was definitely taller than him, even when they were sitting down. that was unusual for seokjin, since he's pretty tall himself.

"what's your name?" namjoon asked.

"seokjin,"

"seokjin..."

namjoon looked back down.

"that's a pretty name,"

this was really messing with seokjin. "we're only friends," he kept reminding himself in his head. "only friends,"

"i'm namjoon,"

"i know,"

"oh?"

"you're here often. i've heard the librarian talk about you,"

namjoon giggled. and that was the first time seokjin heard him laugh. he saw his eyes light up and his smile gave him dimples.

those dimples made seokjin go insane. it was definitely namjoon's best facial feature.

"yeah, i'm always here. i've seen you around here a lot too,"

"oh really?"

"yeah, i mean it's pretty hard to not see you. you're very good looking, you know," namjoon giggled again.

seokjin smiled and hid his face in his hands.

"you're funny,"
