it's nice, how minkyung and yebin can spend hours at a time sitting together on yebin's bedroom floor. how, even though the playlist they had been listening to ended long ago, they can stay there in the silence comfortably. how even though their positions get uncomfortable quickly, with yebin's head in minkyung's lap, and minkyung's head leaning against yebin's bed, they stay that way.
"minkyung," yebin whispers. minkyung hums, continuing to play with yebin's hair in her lap. "tell me you love me," yebin requests. when minkyung doesn't say anything, yebin sighs. "i know it's not true, but-"
"very sudden, yebin," minkyung mumbles, removing her hand from yebin's hair. instead she places it on her cheek, starting to trace little patterns. "why so sudden?"
"i'm sad," yebin announces. "sometimes i'm really sad. i figure if someone loves me, even a little bit, i'll be less sad." she leans into minkyung's touch, trying to savor it for as long as possible. looking up, yebin notices minkyung sporting a small smile.
"plenty of people love you," minkyung assures. "please know that."
"that's not the kind of love i need," yebin disagrees. "true love. like, sitting in a field of flowers and watching the sunset together while holding hands. that kind of love."
"you have it all figured out." minkyung laughs, moving from yebin's cheek to her shoulder, and over her arm. "how long have you been thinking of this?" she questions.
"for so long," yebin breathes.
"with anybody in particular?"
yebin hesitates. "yes," she mutters eventually. "yes, someone in particular." minkyung doesn't respond, focusing on her fingers on yebin's arm. yebin can feel herself drifting off, and she wonders if it would really be a bad thing if she did fall asleep, in her best friend's arms.
and then minkyung starts singing softly. it's beautiful, angelic even. and yebin's eyes drift shut almost involuntarily to the sound. the last thing yebin remembers is minkyung saying "i love you" very quietly. and yebin smiles, before letting sleep overcome her. she dreams of fields of flowers and sunsets and holding hands with minkyung.
