⸠characters drinking, alone or with each otherÂ
PAST RELATIONSHIP. When Kay and Jakob were close friends.
Half lidded eyes try to scan Jakobâs face with nothing but trust and solace. You know that thing about chick flicks where the boy breaks up with his girl for some apparent reason? Kay thinks heâs the protagonist, for once. But having Jakob beside him, and knowing that they have an unbreakable bond between them (he knows heâll never be alone) makes his situation less pitiful, but still unbearable.Â
âLife is so annoying⌠and the fact that sheâ she makes it less than a a rubbish that life actually isâŚâ he pauses, drinks, and he starts missing his girl. Â
Jakob smiles, that set of features that Kay has already memorized. The burden of guilt that swells in Kayâs chest cools a little.Â
âBut you have me, captainâÂ
Despite his reply, Kay would be lying if he says that he isnât touched. For all that is worth, his heart beats a few seconds, and when he tries to suppress a smile, he fails.Â
âWhatever, but thanks for being here, Schneeâ Kay whispers, it comes off a little weak, but he knows that Jakob can hear it just fine.Â
âDonât thank me, I only came for the drinksâ
Kay swears and laughs, Jakob laughs too, there has been a built mutual understanding between them. Heâs just happy to have Jakob beside him. Â Â
