fussing over scottie after each game was second nature, and as oliver brought an ice pack over to join his boyfriend on the couch, concern furrowed in his brow. "you scared me," he admitted, holding the ice to scottie's bruised jaw. the worry in his eyes melted into adoration, his thumb brushing over scottie's lower lip. "sometimes i wish...i wish i could drag you off of the ice myself," freckled cheeks broke into a soft grin, "but you're so brave. and so impossibly handsome."

       ''  you've  got  to  stop  this  ,  mimi.  i'm  serious.  ''  but  nothing  about  the  way  his  face  looks  matches  the  warning  in  his  voice.  a  smile  keeps  tugging  at  the  corners  of  his  mouth  ,  impossible  to  hold  back  ,  his  body  practically  giving  him  away  as  he  reads  her  every  movement  ,  every  predictable  shift  of  her  posture.  even  from  the  sidelines  ,  with  his  mind  still  half-occupied  by  muscle  memory  and  timing  determined  to  finish  his  routine  ,  jai  can  feel  her  gaze  lingering  …  burning  on  him.  ''  like  ,  seriously.  mimi  —  hey  …  ''

       he  finally  cracks  ,  laughter  slipping  out  as  he  reaches  for  her.  every  muscle  in  his  body  protests  ,  sore  and  heavy  from  a  routine  he  finished  barely  ten  minutes  ago.  sweat  still  clings  to  his  skin  ,  damp  at  his  hairline  and  chest  ,  and  up  close  he  knows  he  must  look  like  a  complete  mess.  still  ,  this  is  a  conversation  he  can't  keep  avoid  any  longer.

       ''  mimi  ,  ''  he  says  more  gently  now  ,  holding  his  hand  out  to  her  ,  ''  we've  tried  this  before  …  ''

"everyone already thinks we’re dating, so why don’t we give it a try?" luca reasons with a noncommittal shrug. "and like i said, it doesn't even have to be real, just real enough."

"stop  squirming,  i'm  trying  to  help."  yisoo  scolds,  her  frown  contrasting  with  the  gentle  touch  of  her  fingers  as  she  tends  to  the  wound.  it  is  just  one  of  many  that  she  will  have  to  address  tonight.  although  she’s  not  forced  into  this  role,  she  feels  a  deep  sense  of  obligation  to  care  for  them  nonetheless.  it  is  a  mistake  to  let  her  life  entwine  so  closely  with  theirs,  considering  how  vastly  different  their  lives  are.  however,  fate  has  a  way  of  bringing  unexpected  souls  together  and  leaving  its  indelible  mark.  "do  you  know  how  much  money  you  must’ve  saved  on  medical  bills  by  seeing  me?"  she  quips,  attempting  to  lighten  the  mood  while  moving  on  to  another  injury  just  below  their  jawline.  "i  should  make  you  treat  me  to  my  favourite  barbecue  place  more  often."

"are you sure you’re okay with me going out with someone else?" ivy asks slowly. in truth, she didn't really want to go out with peter, but this seemed like ivy's only option to gauge the other's reaction.
