Twice one-shots

in between (2yeon)

Nayeon and Jeongyeon sat side by side on a bench in the park, their laughter echoing through the air. They had been inseparable since their first year of high school, their friendship built on a foundation of shared experiences, inside jokes, and unwavering support.

As they talked and laughed, passersby often mistook them for a couple, their easy rapport and affectionate gestures fueling the misunderstanding. But Nayeon and Jeongyeon never paid much attention to the whispers and assumptions. They knew the truth of their relationship-best friends, partners in crime, soulmates in every sense of the word.

But lately, something had shifted. Nayeon found herself lingering on Jeongyeon's words, her laughter ringing like music in her ears. And Jeongyeon couldn't help but notice the way Nayeon's smile brightened her darkest days, her presence a constant source of comfort and joy.One evening, as they walked home from a movie, Nayeon hesitated, her heart pounding in her chest. "Jeongyeon, can I ask you something?"

Jeongyeon turned to her, a small smile playing on her lips. "Of course, Nayeon. What's on your mind?"

Nayeon took a deep breath, her hands trembling slightly. "Do you ever wonder... if maybe there's something more between us?

"

Jeongyeon's eyebrows furrowed in confusion. "What do you mean?"

Nayeon bit her lip, her gaze flickering away. "I mean... we're always mistaken for a couple. And sometimes, I wonder if maybe there's a reason for that."

Jeongyeon's heart skipped a beat, her mind racing with possibilities. "Nayeon, are you saying... you have feelings for me?"Nayeon met her gaze, her eyes shining with vulnerability. "I think I might, Jeongyeon. I think I might love you."

Jeongyeon's breath caught in her throat, her mind whirling with disbelief and hope. "Nayeon, I... I think I might feel the same way."They stood there, bathed in the glow of the streetlights, their hearts laid bare for the other to see. And in that moment, everything changed.
Days turned into weeks, and Nayeon and Jeongyeon found themselves dancing on the delicate edge between friendship and something more. They shared lingering touches and stolen glances, their hearts racing with anticipation and uncertainty.

One evening, as they sat on Nayeon's balcony, watching the sunset paint the sky in hues of orange and pink, Jeongyeon took Nayeon's hand in hers, her voice barely above a whisper. "Nayeon, I think we need to talk about... us."

Nayeon turned to her, her heart pounding in her chest. "What about us, Jeongyeon?"Jeongyeon took a deep breath, her fingers tracing patterns on Nayeon's skin. "I think we've been tiptoeing around this for too long. We need to confront our feelings, whatever they may be."

Nayeon nodded, her eyes searching Jeongyeon's face for answers. "And what if... what if we discover that our feelings are stronger than just friendship?"

Jeongyeon's lips curved into a soft smile. "Then maybe... maybe we should explore those feelings together."

Their eyes met, the unspoken promise hanging in the air between them. And as the last rays of sunlight faded into the horizon, they leaned in, their lips meeting in a tender, tentative kiss. It was a moment of revelation, of acceptance, of love.
In the weeks that followed, Nayeon and Jeongyeon embarked on a journey of discovery, navigating the complexities of their newfound relationship with honesty and openness. They shared laughter and tears, joy and heartache, but through it all, their bond only grew stronger.And as they stood hand in hand, facing the world together, they knew that their love was not just a fleeting moment, but a forever kind of love-a love that had been there all along, waiting patiently to be discovered between best friends and lovers.
