Lost In Love Starting Of Love

(The dim glow of streetlights illuminates the empty road as Leeknow walks home after practice. Suddenly, he spots a familiar figure standing near a vending machine, lost in thought)

Leeknow

[furrowing his brows] Seungmin, what are you doing here? It’s late

Seungmin

[kicking a small rock] Just roaming around… Needed some fresh air.

Leeknow

[crossing arms] At this hour? You never do things without a reason Spill it...

Seungmin

[exhales, looking away] Just… thinking

(Leeknow senses something is off. He steps closer, gently tugged Seungmin’s hoodie string)

Leeknow

You’re overthinking again. You always do that when something bothers you

Seungmin

[smirks] And you always read me too well

(A comfortable silence between them, the chilly breeze making Seungmin shiver slightly)

(Leeknow takes off his jacket and drapes it over Seungmin’s shoulders. Seungmin freezes for a moment before glancing at him with an unreadable expression.)

Seungmin

[softly] You didn’t have to do that

Leeknow

[shrugging] It’s not like you’re gonna take care of yourself properly

(Seungmin rolls his eyes but pulls the jacket tighter around himself. They start walking side by side, their steps synchronized)

Seungmin

You’re too nice sometimes. It’s annoying

Leeknow

[chuckles] And yet, you’re still here with me

(Seungmin huffs but doesn’t deny it. His fingers subconsciously brush against Leeknow’s as they walk. Leeknow notices but doesn’t pull away)

(They stop at the bridge overlooking the quiet city lights. Seungmin leans against the railing, gazing at the view)

Seungmin

Do you ever feel like... some things are just meant to be?

Leeknow

[raising an eyebrow] Like fate? Sounds a bit dramatic, even for you

Seungmin

[laughs softly] Maybe, But sometimes, I feel like no matter what happens, I’d always end up… here

Leeknow

[teasing] Here? On a cold bridge in the middle of the night?

Seungmin

[rolls his eyes] No, idiot. With you

(Silence. Leeknow’s heart skips a beat. He wasn’t expecting that answer. Seungmin’s gaze remains fixed on the view, but his fingers tighten slightly around Leeknow’s sleeve)

(The night continues, but for them, time seems to stop—caught in a moment that feels like forever)
