Bestfriends Forever.
Just bestfriends that spoke like lovers.. and that seemed to be enough for two teenagers who were scared to love one another.
Emilia (Emily) Winters and Tyler Cavill.
The two have been unseparated since they're born. First step...
The library was a sanctuary of quietude, filled with the soft rustle of turning pages.. occasional murmur of whispers.. Amidst the rows of bookshelves, a little girl with auburn locks sat engrossed in a book. Her small fingers tracing the words as she read with rapt attention. Abruptly, a whisper stood out from the others, piercing the serenity. Curious, she reluctantly turned to peek between the stack of books.
A boy and a girl sat nearby, their heads bent over a table strewn with books. The difference was—while the girl remained engrossed in her reading, the boy with jet-black hair had forsaken his own book in favor of a sleek green toy car. With playful abandon, he deftly maneuvered the car across the girl's open book, eliciting soft giggles from her.
Despite her amusement, the girl with dark brown eyes repeatedly lifted her books to shield them from the intruding toy car. Yet, as his persistence grew, the girl's amusement gradually waned—replaced by a growing sense of irritation. Eventually, unable to tolerate his interruptions any longer, she left him in seemingly annoyance.
Meanwhile, the girl observed the scene from a distance, curiosity piqued. With determined steps, she approached him—her hand outstretched towards his shoulder, intending to offer comfort.. or perhaps—to scold him for his antics. As her small hand reached out.. the boy stood up. The girl's little fingers almost reaching..

"What're you doing?"
Startled by the sudden tap on his shoulder, Cavill grabs the shelves in a tight shake, causing the books to wobble precariously. As he steadies himself, he turns around hesitantly—heart still pounding with surprise.. to find a girl with short hair cut, staring back at him with her downturned eyes. Still feeling startled, he looks around as if he's a fugitive on a run—before finally looking back at her in a dumbfounded manner.
"I.. I was—hiding—wait," narrowing his eyes as he retracts his head, he tilts his head in recognition, "do I know you? You look.. familiar,"
Eyes widening in surprise, the girl gasps excitedly, "It's Lucy! Lucy Burns!" but Tyler narrows his eyes, seeming unsure—prompting her to roll her eyes and make another attempt, "You know, elementary school. I was the girl in—"
"Holy shit! Lucy Burns!"
Like a switch turned on, his expression lights up with recognition and he immediately grabs her hand excitedly and shakes them. "Wow—it's been—"
"7 years. Yeah, I know—"
"Ok but listen—I really need to get out of here, can we—save the talk for later—"
