***

I've always accepted the fact that I'm meant to marry Choi Yeonjun. Our parents have decided this since we were born. This arranged marriage is the only way to end the rivalry between both of our parents' companies. I have no problem marrying Yeonjun, however. I mean, I spent a lot of time with him and I actually really like him. He's so sweet and kind to me and I have to admit, he looks fine. I even like his family too so I don't mind being related to them one day. And I especially, unexpectedly became best friends with his younger brother, Soobin.

But maybe I shouldn't have.

Maybe it would stop this whole new problem from happening.

I've graduated college recently so it means Yeonjun could propose to me any time now. I decided to go to his house to spend time with him. But no one was home except Soobin, which I didn't mind because I felt like hanging out anyway. We were watching Marvel movies because he's been trying to get me into them so we went on a marathon.

"Pay attention to this part, it's important." He pointed at the screen as I nodded, paying attention.

"Quick question; Loki is his brother, right?" My back sank into the couch.

"Yeah, you're finally getting it!" He excitedly clapped his hands like a cute seal. "I'm so proud!"

I laughed and softly screamed a "Yes!"

I realized we already watched 10 movies and Yeonjun wasn't home yet. I texted him to check where he was only to find out he's not coming back until tomorrow. I sighed as I closed my phone and told Soobin my situation.
"Looks like I'm stuck watching Marvel movies with you."

Soobin made an offended, dramatic gasp and faked sobbed, "Wow, I thought we were best friends."

"No, don't cry!" I wrapped my arms around him, side-hugging him, and placed my head on his shoulder. "We are! You know I love you!"

Still fake crying, Soobin continued to tease me, "No, you don't! You're lying!" His head rested on top of mine.

I hit his chest and huffed, "Shut up and accept my love."

We both laughed and when I pulled back, I looked up to see him. He was smiling down at me, his eyes were shining.
What's happening...? And did he always look so handsome?

"Y/n..." Still smiling, Soobin's eyebrow raised. "You okay?"

I placed my hand on my chest, feeling my heartbeat, as I shook my head. "Yeah- No. I don't know what's going on." I felt like my heart skipped a beat. Then I felt a sudden sensation in my stomach. Butterflies? As I considered all of my symptoms, it slowly hit me. "Soobin... I think I'm in love."

"With Yeonjun?"

"No..." I grabbed his hand and placed it on my chest so he could feel my heart rate, "I think with you.

His eyes went wide as his jaw dropped, "You... Are you serious?"

"I'm sorry!" I gently pushed him away and embraced myself, looking at the opposite direction, "I should've stayed quiet, it's just that I only realized this right now and I always tell you everything first. I'm sorry, please don't tell anyone. We can pretend this never-"

The next thing I knew, Soobin's lips were already locked into mine. His big, soft hands were cupping my face. My eyes went wide for a second and instantly closed tightly after. Then I moved my body forward to close the gap between us, my hands stroking his back.

I broke the kiss for a second to gasp, "Wait, Soobin, we can't..."

"I'm sorry..." His eyes were glued to my lips as he frowned.

Ironically, despite my statement, I kissed him again. Holding him closer for as long as I can. I was completely intoxicated by the taste of him.

When we pulled away, my eyes started to fill up with tears. Soobin softly gasped to see my expression.

"I wasn't that bad, was I?"He softly chuckled as he wiped my tears with his thumb.

"No, you were amazing. I love you so much." I shook my head, reassuring him.

"I love you too."

"It's just... I can't be with you. I mean, you may be a Choi but you're not the eldest."

"I know..." He sighed and pressed his forehead against mine, "Sadly, I still want you."

"Me too, Soobin, but I have to listen to my parents." I gave him a peck in the lips, "Please, listen to yours."

He stared at me as a tear ran down his cheeks. Then Soobin wrapped his arms around me, his fingers running through my hair. "I wish things were different." He started to sob and this time it wasn't fake.
