It was just me.

No you.

No stars.

Just me.

Staring into nothingness.

Alone.

Something I had gotten used to.

"Beom" a familiar voice called.

"Beom!" It yelled this time.

It brought me back to reality.

I wasn't alone.

I was in the library.

With Taehyun.

Revising for geography.

"What?" I groaned.

"You keep spacing out. You're going to fail this test" Taehyun frowned.

I shrugged.

He frowned deeper.

"It's about Soobin, isn't it?" he asked.

I could hear his eye roll.

"He won't respond to my texts, and-and he keeps hanging out with Rosé instead of me" I began to rant.

"Maybe because she's his girlfriend".

"But I'm his best friend. That's way more important than a girlfriend" I stated childishly.

"Beom, we've got a month until school's over. After that, we'll all be going to different colleges. Just confess to him" Taehyun spoke softly.

Softer than usual.

But his words didn't work.

I was still unsure.

If I confessed to you.

I could lose you.

And I couldn't lose you.

Not when I knew how much you were hurting at home-

Taehyun rested his hand atop mine.

I furrowed my eyebrows slightly.

"Beom, I know you. You're intelligent, beautiful, caring, talented. What's there not to like about you? I'm sure Soobin would accept your feelings in a heartbeat, I've seen the way he looks at you".

I blushed.

"R-really?" I stuttered.

It was a rhetorical question.

But Tae still nodded his head.

It made my heart flutter.

Because maybe you could accept my feelings.

Maybe you did love me like I loved you.

Maybe you just didn't know it yet.

"But he's with Rosé" I frowned.

Taehyun scoffed.

๑ "So?". ๑
