nine seconds [J9 | COMPLETED]

It was a room crowded with students bumping each others' shoulders. I was stuck on the middle and struck by his smile.

I was dumb, I guess. For I accidentally swallowed my own saliva causing my throat hurt.

If you haven't seen an angel in person, you have to see him.

Everyone suddenly stopped and our eyes met sending shivers down my spine.

There he goes again, the smile. His lips curving up to the heavens and his cloud-coloured teeth peeping. I can't help but to smile back at him.

Eventually, after a year we met again and today we are both college students.

His name is Nine.

He is my best friend.

And I think that one summer night, last year, I fell in love with him.
