Best Friend's Love [G!P] ✔️

First and Last

It's 3 am here...

Since I came to the city, to seek a better opportunity in life, I only had one best friend and her name was Hwang Yeji.

I was always a shy person, I didn't like to talk much, I was never good at making friends or starting a new conversation, but when I saw her for the first time, her cat eyes and her outgoing way of being, changed my life and my way of seeing the world.

She was always smiling, cheering me up with her good humor and making me feel cheerful, even on my gray days. We had been working together at the same coffee shop and over time, I began to feel things for her that I had never felt in my life.

Like the butterflies I felt in my stomach every time she came up behind me and whispered a something that people order in my ear, or the tickling in my chest, when she put her arm around my shoulders, as we walked on the way to the bus station.

I know it may all sound very cliché, but I couldn't even describe what I felt any other way. And that's when I realized that I had fallen in love with my best friend.

But, I had to at least have the confidence to tell her. I had been trying to do it for weeks, I didn't want our friendship to be ruined, I didn't want to lose her friendship and I was very afraid of doing it.

Until one day, I gathered enough courage...

"Hey, Ryuddaeng!"

I heard her cheerful voice and immediately smiled, as I washed my hands in the kitchen sink. I blushed and closed my eyes when I felt one of her sweet kisses on my cheek, the same way she greeted me every morning.

"Hey, Yeddeong." I don't even remember why we had chosen those nicknames, but I always thought it was cute that we could call each other that way.

"I have something to tell you. We'll talk during the break, okay?"

She told me and I nodded as I watched her take her apron and put her brown hair up in a messy ponytail, while she let her pink locks fall to the side of her face.

"I have something to tell you too."

Yeji winked at me, before leaving the kitchen and I smiled, feeling like my cheeks were really hot, as I continued with my work.

With every minute that passed, I felt more nervous and anxious about my confession, I didn't know how she was going to take it, I was overthinking about her possible reactions and my heart was beating faster each time.

When it was finally time for lunch, I took my backpack where I kept my small taper of food and she took hers.

"After You." Yeji said funny, bowing and I rolled my eyes, leaving as she held the door to the back entrance of the cafeteria.

Which led to an alley where there were small stairs, which was our secret place to eat.

"Ryujin, don't tell me that was all you brought to eat?" I heard her say once I took out my taper and looked at her, her cat-like look, intently in my eyes.

With a simple gesture and my heart was thundering like crazy in my chest.

"Yeah, what's wrong with it?" I told her and before I could continue, she immediately took food out of her lid to put it in mine. "Hey-"

"You're too thin, you have to eat a lot more than that." Yeji said and I smiled. 

After that, without saying anything else, we both began to eat in a comfortable silence, while the moment I was waiting for, got closer and closer.

My hands were literally sweaty as I put the taper back in my backpack and Yeji gave me a small tissue to wipe my mouth.

It's okay, Ryujin. You got it, you can do it, it's now or never.
