Ever since we met, Ravn and I have had an interesting friendship. Some even thought we were dating at one point, and I can see how they came to that conclusion based on how we acted towards each other. We both agreed though we didn't want anything serious and we were just having fun, no labels.

He would invite me to come hangout in the dorms from time to time, spending time with all of them is the most fun, they always make me laugh and smile. As I got to know them all one started to catch my eye in particular, Keonhee. I couldn't explain what it was about him that attracted me to him, maybe it was everything.

All I know is every time I see him smile it can turn even my worst days completely around. I kept the way I felt to myself and as far as I knew no one else could tell how I was feeling, or so I thought.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ravn, sitting leisurely across the room, smiling while watching every one talk and laugh, starts to pick up on some subtle behavior changes between you and keonhee. The way the two of them always sit together now, coincidentally a few time sure but now it's almost every time, and it's done discreetly too. They've never sat down together, it's always been one approaching and joining the other.

They're both really bright and smiley people, but the way her face lights up when he smiles at her, it's like nothing I've ever seen before, it makes me smile just seeing it. Every one's normally pretty absorbed in conversation to see it, but when you step back and look at the bigger picture it's really easy to see.

I'm almost positive he feels the way about her too, the way he smiles back, the way he purposely sits alone during meals when he knows she's going to be here, and his personal favorite singing for the group, but ironically he only does it when she's here. She and I never agreed to be exclusive, we both agreed it was only for fun and the day would come where we'd have to stop.

I just never thought I'd see that day coming a mile away while she seems completely oblivious. The evening came to a close and everyone had retired to their rooms except me, her and keonhee, which made a new first. Keonhee is always the first to go to bed, now he's the last to leave. They're both terrible at being subtle and completely oblivious of each others actions, it makes me chuckle to myself which catches both of their attention in the dim silence.

"What's so funny ravn?" she prodded at him playfully. "Oh nothing, just the deafening silence in here..." he responded sarcastically. Standing up and moving next to her, he lowers his head and whispers in her ear "Are you ready to go to bed now sweetheart?" She looked up at him slightly confused at first before realizing how late it was. "Oh my goodness yes, I'm so sorry, y'all have to be up early and I'm keeping you up" she kept repeating apologetically.

"It's okay!" Keonhee said with a  bright smile "I normally don't go to bed until late anyways" he says, earning a knowing glare from Ravn. He looks at him knowing he done slipped up and Ravn wasn't going to let it go without them talking about it.

He walked her to his bedroom where she gets ready to sleep. With a kiss on the cheek he lets her know that he needs to discuss some work things with Keonhee and that he would return later, to go ahead and sleep, and she did exactly that.

It didn't take her long to fall asleep, as Ravn was leaving the room he heard her talking in her sleep, which was nothing new, but then he heard her mutter Keonhee's name. His heart just about melted and only made him more sure of what he was doing.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Walking back into the living room, Keonhee was there waiting. As he approached Keonhee went to stand up and Ravn motioned for him to keep sitting, this wasn't a serious matter or a big deal, only that her happiness has always come first for him, seeing an opportunity to make her happy he was going to take it. Sitting next to him casually, relaxing into the chair Ravn looks over at Keonhee, who looks nervous, and says to him "If you're worried about getting rejected, I don't think you have anything to worry about."

Keonhee looks at Ravn, jaw on the floor, utterly shocked and confused by what he said. "I don't understand what you're talking about" Keonhee says completely flustered. Ravn puts his hand on Keonhee's shoulder and smiles big "Keonhee I can tell that you like her, a lot. Even if you don't see it, I can, and she likes you too." He looks at Ravn completely astounded and asks "How do you know? did she tell you?"

"No...but I figured it out the same way I figured you out." He answered. Keonhee pouts and says "I don't know if I believe you." The wheels in Ravn's head start turning as he starts scheming a way to get them to both admit their feelings for each other. "I can prove it if you give me some time, and trust in me. Come to my bedroom tomorrow afternoon and I'll prove how I know she likes you." Giving Ravn a glare of hesitation he nods his head and wishes Ravn a good night.
