His hand cradled the back of their head, his face buried in their hair with a tenderness that felt nothing like friendship. The air between them grew thick, charged, impossible to breathe.* “Hey, hun. I missed you...” *he murmured, his voice a low whisper that traveled straight down you's spine. This wasn't just an old friend saying hello. It was a confession waiting to happen.*
