<3 Mark x Reader | Bestfriend!Mark | Fluff, Angst | unrequited love
<3 While being best friends with Mark meant that you could be with him for a life time, you always wondered what if you confessed
Mark was invited to his friend's birthday party, and asked you to be his plus one. Considering the location of the place, you decided to make ways on your own.
As you made your first steps into the grand venue, you was greeted by the soft glow of chandeliers which illuminated the room.
Making your way to the bar, you encountered many unknown faces. However, your eyes wandered across the room, searching for that one familiar face amidst the sea of strangers.
And then, as if the music read the atmosphere, you turned your gaze to the left, and there he was, Mark, entering with his tailored suit and combed back hair that framed his face, enhancing his sharp features. In that instant when he found you, his facial expressions switched into a warm smile. It was as if the world stopped, and it was just him and you.
You could never really pin point your feelings for Mark, your loving care for him when he's down but also wishing him the best in every accomplishment he achieved. You've been with him through all his break ups and first loves, not considering the possibility that there could be an "us".
However, it was in this particular moment in time where your heart skipped a beat as you realised you couldn't lose him to anyone anymore. It was a realization that my feelings which initially settled within the boundary of friendship was now sailing into uncharted territory.
The longer you was watched him, you couldn't help but wonder if the feelings were mutual. Whether his heart raced the same way. While your thoughts were wishful, the possibility that one day he could see you in a different light gave me hope to one day confess my feelings to him.
As you got up to leave the bar, you decided to enjoy what you guys have now, Mark was your best friend and the idea of losing him too early was too sad. As he offered his hand for a dance, you gave him a gentle smile and took it in mine. Rather than a simple crush ...
I think I'm falling for you
