( closed starter for @realhercs / benjamin & morgan. )
the dance had plagued benjamin with more questions than anything, the boy feeling as if he had left things in a weird place. he hadn’t stopped thinking about morgan since that day, no matter how many distractions he tried to occupy his mind with. yet he hadn’t really made an effort to do anything about the way he was feeling, something that was becoming more and more common for the boy. feeling as if he had to do something, he made an effort to ‘ coincidentally ’ run into the girl. even if it wasn’t as much of a coincidence as he tried to pass it off as. the moment he saw her, he drew closer to her in a casual manner. his heart was thudding against his chest and he had to remind himself to take a breath before speaking. he was supposed to come off as nonchalant but what actually happened was far from that. ❝ morgan… can we talk? ❞ the moment those words left his lips it felt like instant deja vu for him and not in a good way.
