Y/N’s Apartment
Y/N’s POV
Same walk. Same apartment.
Nothing felt the same.
My world shifted and I didn’t know what to make of it.
I walked over to the kitchen intending to get something to drink, instead I dropped my keys down and rubbed the back of my neck.
Not yet…
I let out a deep sigh.
“You’re back early.” Emi said, sitting on the couch with a book.
“Yeah..sorry, didn’t mean to interrupt.”
I stayed in the kitchen just looking at the counter top.
I heard her put her book down and walk towards me.
“You want to talk about it?”
“No, it’s really nothing…it’s ok.”
She studied me quietly.
“It’s just…something happened.”
She took a seat at the island stool.
“I went to Mina’s place again.”
I met her eyes, she wasn’t surprised.
“I brought snacks.”
“We were playing games.”
“Just talking like normal.”
Silence.
“Things got…weird.”
“Weird?”
“Yeah, not bad. I don’t think it was bad.”
“Go on.”
“We got close.”
Her eyebrows shifted up slightly.
“I think…no, I know we were about to kiss.”
“About to?”
“She stopped…right before it happened.”
Her expression softened her head tilting slightly.
“Did she say anything to you afterwards?”
“She said, ‘Not yet’”
“…of course she did.” she said softly to herself more than me.
She let out a soft sigh.
“What did you think about that?”
“I think maybe she didn’t want to rush it.”
She looked at me and I knew that look.
I braced.
“You’re assuming that stopping means she didn’t want it.”
I looked at her confused.
“Well yeah? I mean she stopped.”
“Y/N, have you considered that she stopped for you…not herself?”
I blinked once, then twice.
“What? Why would she be stopping for me?”
“You didn’t know what you were doing.”
I opened my mouth but nothing came out right away.
“I—knew what I was doing…”
