I love you, I do. But, in reality, I know that we shouldnt be.I purposefully choose to stay away, because I know you deserve better. I see it. I know it. Theres someone that fills that void that I know I cannot fill. They think Im foolish, for throwing away the chance to get closer to you. What they dont know is that I realized that were fully capable of hurting the ones we love. So, I prefer to stay where I am and not pursue wishful thinking.  They dont know it...but this... This is reality. (Note: Reader-insert but in first person. It was just easier that way) Inspired by & Dedicated to –tofutaeBecause without you expressing the love in your heartThis wouldn’t be.<3 Foreword"You love him, dont you?" Kibum whispered as I pretended to not acknowledge him. He nudged me and I looked at him from the corner of my eye and instead of asking one more time, he stated it as if it were a matter of fact."You love him.""And what if I do?" I asked quietly, and I knew what he was going to say in response. So I continued before the words couldcome out of his mouth. "Im not about to let a dream bring me down. Besides..." I looked over at him to find him smiling and laughing with Taemin. "Besides...Im happy where I stand in his life. I know he deserves better. He deserves to be happy." "Tch. And you think you cant make hyung happy?" "I know that I can hurt him."
