Artem has always been a really kind kid, helping his teachers and his fellow kids
You both were in kindergarten when you first met, you were getting bullied by other kids, when this small blue eyes boy intervened
You didn't heard what he said that makes the bullies back away, you were just too mesmerized by him to notice it
He introduced himself giving you his chubby little hands to help you stand up properly
You started noticing how he always helps his teacher when they are carrying something or handing out other kids supplies
It was when elementary school started, you both became actual friends
It was your first day and you were nervous, when this same blue-eyed boy who once helped you came towards you, recognising you from kindergarten
He asked you if you wanted to sit together and start both of yours first day together, you agreed, relieved to have someone with you
That's how you started getting close, you get to know about him, like his parents were lawyer and how much he wanted to be like them as well
It was one time in your 5th grade when there was a cooking day where your grade could participate too, Artem somehow convinced you to participate in it with him as partners
That's where you found out that he have a natural talent or just a fascination for cooking
And watching you eat his food also made his heart beats faster, he loved it seeing you enjoy his food,, since than he decided to always bring you some kind of special dish that he has made himself.
You both were really close friends to the point where you could just go to each other's home without any care or informing
When you started secondary school, he started hitting his puberty as well making him really popular, but no matter how many people wanted to be friends with him, he'll always choose his childhood bestie over anyone
There was one time when children were taught about women menstruation, he came to you asking you about it,, that was definitely a somewhat awkward conversation you both had but he was really serious about it with a little bit of blushing Artem in between.
After that conversation, he wasn't afraid or shy to ask you about it, helping you if you need something
At that point he had many people confessed to him but he wasn't interested in any of them saying it wasn't his goal to get in a relationship at the moment, but when he saw someone confessing to you in front of him, he wasn't really happy about it
He told you to not date anyone because it might "effect on your studies," that's what he always said not mentioning how it kinda stings to his heart just by imagining you with someone else
He always told you to prioritise your goals and yourself over everything
After completing your school, he opted to go to a law school while you decided to do something you love
He always support you no matter what, during stressful times he was always there for you with his amazing cooking and his calming company
Before every big exams you both have a movie night, calling it a relaxing day and break from studies to calm your mind
During this time, you both started to realise that there were something more between you than just friendship.
You noticed the way he stares at you just a bit longer, the way his company feels too comforting, how his words feels too healing that it was supposed to be
He was starting to become more than just a close friend to you, he held a special spot for himself in your life which no one can ever replace
For Artem it was same, he would spend all his time in your company if he could, the want to protect you was growing and it doesn't felt like a friendly thing anymore
He wanted to cook for you, watch movies with you, read you books, cuddle with you, sudden hand holding started to give him butterfly, you being close to him gives him this excitement and calmness at the same time, it started to drive him real crazy
But both of you never said anything to each other, afraid that this could ruin this beautiful friendship
Even Neil his mentor knew how much affection Artem holds for his dear friend, it was obvious to anyone who really knows Artem that he was in love
When he got his doctorate degree, he wanted you to be there in his graduation ceremony
When he was invited by Celestine to join the law firm as a senior partner, he told you first, he wanted to share all his happiness with you first
When Artem decided he wanted to take the Senior Attorney's bar exam, you're more nervous for him than himself, but he really didn't suprised you when he passed that exam getting himself the name of country's youngest senior attorney.
That's when he decided that he wants to confess to you, with the help of Neil and pressure from Celestine, he planed out a perfect date for you to take on, something dreamy that you always wanted, something you once told him when you're both watching a movie
It was the perfect and the best day for both of you, you both enjoyed each other's company, cause no matter if you wanted to or not wanted to get in a relationship with him,, the truth will always be that you both held each other greatly in your heart ♡
