Seonghwa and I are best friends. We have most classes together, and are always together after school. Teachers say we're attached at the hip. But neither of us minded. We could never get tired of each other. Thats how close we were.
Today I was wearing an oversized hoodie and some ripped black jeans. Seonghwa was wearing a striped sweater, chains, boots and jeans. He looked really good. But that was a normal thing.
Seonghwa was one of the quiet, yet well known kids. Almost everyone knew him, or at least his name, which left me in the dust. Seonghwa always tried making me feel better about myself, which worked sometimes. It was basically hit or miss.
---after school---
Seonghwa and I were laying in a dead silence on his bed. His parents werent home and both of us were tired from the school day. "Hey Seonghwa?" I finally burst the silence in the room. "Yea YN?" Seonghwa replies. "Could I take a shower?" I ask. "Yea sure, you know where your things are." Seonghwa smiles. I had things such as extra hoodies, a toothbrush and even my own towel in Seonghwas bathroom.
I walk into the bathroom and strip, turning on the lukewarm water. Slowly I step in and let the beads of water fall onto me. I just stand and eventually peel off some bandaids that fell off.
"YN?" Seonghwa opens the bathroom door. I jerk and turn off the water, then grab a towel. "Sorry, did I take too long?" I ask. "Longer then you usually do. Are you alright?" Seonghwa questions further. He walks more in.
"I'm fine." I state. Seonghwa slides the door back. "YN, your arms." He says. I look down and see blood from the ones where the bandaid fell off. Seonghwa grabs my wrists and pulls me out of the warm space of the shower.
"When did this start?" Seonghwa asks. Shyly I look down. "2 years ago." I whisper. Seonghwa has pain in his eyes. "YN, I love you. Remember that. I'll be here with you while you get better." Seonghwa tells me. Tears start rolling down my face. Seonghwa pulls me into a hug and my head rests on his chest. "I love you. So much. Even more then a friend." Seonghwa whispers into my hair. "I love you too. As more then a friend." I whisper back. Seonghwa pulls back and smiles at me. He gives be a slight peck on the forehead.
