only falling in love
childhood friends to lovers prompts
ā“ "you used to rub dirt on me, and now you're proclaiming your love towards me."
ā“ ^^ "in my case, i was rubbing dirt on you because i love you. i wanted to do everything with you and i wanted you to do everything with me."
ā“ being together from elementary school to high school, then moving off to different colleges. years later, persons a and b reunite once again and find that all of their feelings towards each other are still as strong as ever.
ā“ knowing someone inside and out. being there for all their awkward phases (and creating inside jokes because of it). knowing all their habits and their pet peeves.
ā“ their families didn't like each other, but that didn't stop person a and person b from becoming friends. however, when person a begins to develop feelings for person b, the family rivalry becomes a bit more complicated.
ā“ person b's heart aches when they see person a with another person. b claims that it's because they're not used to seeing person a so intimate with another person besides themself, but their heart says otherwise.
ā“ "where do you see yourself in twenty years?" "with you." (ARGHHHHHH)
ā“ having a love that runs so deep that other people aren't enough to fill the space that the childhood friend has created.
ā“ "you're telling me that you've only had one crush your entire life? that's bullshit. tell me who it is." "no."
ā“ "i can't have feelings for them, we've known each other since childhood!" (a classic)
ā“ "you're important to me. you're like..." person a drifts off, not wanting to confess their true feelings because they think it will ruin everything, "family." (EREMIKA MUCH?????)
ā“ person a keeps treating person b as a friend because they're scared person b will react differently if they were to enact on their true feelings.
ā“ person a and person b get asked the question of when the other person fell in love. person b's face lights up with mischief and begins to tell the most embarrassing story ever while person a has their head in their hands.
ā“ "do you remember whenā" "nope! no. no i don't. i actually don't know what you're talking about."
ā“ person a and person b are laying in the same bed together when person b is like "oh. oh i want this forever." it's a simple and mundane moment, but for person b, being with person a was everything.
ā“ "you're in love with me?!" "you just found out?"
ā“ "well you weren't being obvious!" meanwhile: person b was literally taking any chance to admire person a, looking for person a in every room, speaking to person a 24/7, trailing their fingers down person a's arms, and staring (bonus points if they crinkle their eyebrows in that soft and loving gaze) at person a when they speak.
