Between familiar lines

Gyuvin and Ricky have been best friends since they were sixteen, close, comfortable, and inseparable in all the ways that matter. Now in college, their routine is steady and familiar, until a new student enters their class and quietly disrupts the balance. Small moments start to feel different: a seat change, a flash of jealousy, conversations that linger a second too long. Neither of them names it, and neither wants things to change, but something has already shifted. This is a story about growing up together, staying close, and the feelings that surface long before anyone is ready to face them.
