closer than friends

requested by 091012.k

You and Amiri were the it couple before you even made it official—until he went ghost and surfaced on your best friend Bianca’s arm. Now, sitting in her living room while she plays hostess, the truth is coming out in the way he looks at you when her back is turned. He didn't leave because he stopped wanting you; he left because he thought you played him. But as the San Diego heat settles over the house and Bianca leaves the room, Amiri’s eyes tell a different story: he’s still yours, and he’s tired of playing pretend.
