late night sleepovers in each other's rooms, hands lingering too long during rehearsals, sharing clothes, quiet touches, inside jokes - it's always been just them.
at least, that's what heeseung and jake tell themselves.
but after a frightening moment on stage and an injury that left emotions running dangerously high, the line between friendship and something else started to blur in ways neither of them knows how to ignore anymore.
suddenly every glance feels too loaded, every touch lingers too long, and the affection they've always shared begins to feel painfully different.
caught between years of familiarity and feelings they were never supposed to notice, heeseung and jake find themselves asking the same terrifying question.
if it feels this natural, was it ever casual to begin with?
