.:{ South Korea POV }:.

North has been my closest friend for a while. We've been through so much together and I couldn't thank him enough. We've been friends since the second grade, we've been together in happiness, envy, anger, and even sadness. When things get dark, we're there for each other. 

I wouldn't have it any other way.

But, lately, I'm not sure what to make of our friendship. Recently, whenever I'm near him, I get these butterflies in my stomach. My head reels. My palms get sweaty. I stumble over my words and blush. I have no idea what the hell is wrong with me! It's just all so complicated! 

I love North as a friend, right? These feelings are normal, yes? 

That's what I thought, until a certain night.

.-[ North Korea POV ]-.

South Korea is nice and all, but I wouldn't consider us as friends. 

Best  friends is more like it. 

And until now, it's what I initially thought. See, I have been crushing on this country since the third grade, a year after we became friends. We've always been there for each other, like the time South got locked in the school during after hours. He cried and cried, wailed, even! He was panicking, saying that he'd never see the light of day again! 

It was pretty funny, honestly. 

Though, he often scolds me for beating the shit out of the people who pick on him. What am I supposed to do?! Sit around and watch him get hurt? Fuck no! I'm going to step in and beat the living hell out the bitch! It's the right thing to do, right?

A few nights ago, we sat at a bar, drinking and laughing, having a great time! I, apparently, had drank a few too many shots and started to say things that I...would never say aloud. 

"South, you're so cuuute!" I had slurred.

South's face had blushed a deep red, it was funny! "North, maybe it's time to put the drinks down," South mumbled, trying to take the shot glass away from me. 

"Nooo, please? Don't touch my glass," I yanked my hand away from him. 

"North, please, you've had far too many. Twice as much as I." 

"But, Southy, I can handle it!" 

"Maybe it's time we left," South replied, taking my hand gently. He was always gentle, I liked that about him. "We'll stay at my house for the night, alright?" 

"Alright, cutie." 

South ended up paying for the drinks we had, which I still feel bad for to this day, and drove me to his house. I'd been there multiple times, but every time it felt so new. 

He had to basically drag me up the stairs and into the guest bedroom. He then gently laid me down on the bed and said his goodnight. I grabbed his wrist. 

"Southy, please, don't gooooo! Stay with me!" I had said, pulling him closer. At this point, a had sat up on the bed and grinned like a fucking five year old. 

"North, I can't. I have my own bedroom," South replied. 

I frowned. 

"No. Stay with me," I insisted, pulling him onto the bed with me. He rested between my legs with his back against my chest. I rested my head on his. 

"You're so cute," I had praised, wrapping my arms around his torso. "Please stay, I won't try anything. I promise, not unless you want me to." 

South huffed. "Quit it, North," he said as he pried my arms off him and settled into the spot next to me. 

I, too, settled in and brought the blanket up to our chests. I shuffled closer to him, cradling him in my arms. 

What I didn't expect was that South had then kissed my cheek. 

After a momentary pause, I smirked. I was more sober now, I knew exactly what I was doing.

.:{ South Korea POV }:.

I didn't know what I was doing, but just then, what I did felt right. I reached up from his arms and pecked him on the cheek. I saw how he paused, then smirked. 

I had just closed my eyes when I felt someone's lips press onto mine. I quickly shot my eyes open. It wasn't a forced kiss, it was gentle and loving. 

I froze, probably the most stupid reaction I could have had. But, my eyes then seemed to flutter shut as I melted into the embrace. 

.-{ Third POV }-.

As the two pulled away, North gave a wide smile of affection to South. He then placed another kiss on his forehead and pulled him close, making himself drift off to sleep.

South, on the other hand, had froze. He didn't protest when North pulled him closer. 

South eventually rested his head on North's chest and drifted off to his comforting dreams, as well.
