I haven't been very active with my grandma away. I go on a run every night but other than that, I don't know what to do anymore.

I lost inspiration for art and photography. I only try to keep my momentum flowing for my parents.

I've been texting Kai daily. He usually asks me how I'm doing and trys to get me to talk to him about my past.

I was planning to leave on a run earlier than I usually do which is around seven at night. I changed into a green t-shirt and black gym shorts. I tied my hair into a ponytail and grabbed my phone. I slid it into a sleeve on my arm and hooked up my earbuds to the sleeve. I pocketed my keys with the phone and rushed out of my room.

I knocked gently on Mrs. T's door to tell her I was leaving. She was like a guardian.

"I'm leaving for a run. I have my phone." I yelled through the door.

"Okay dear. Have fun and be careful." she shouted back.

I jogged down the stairs and ran out the door of the complex. I started out on the street infront of the park.

I plugged my earbuds into my ears and looked both ways before crossing into the street.

I got a text alert on my phone so I pulled into the park to check it.

K: Hey, you busy?

On a run. Why?

K: Wanted to know if you wanted to meet up.

Sure. Where at?

K: Up to you.

My place in ten?

K: Be over soon.

I ended the conversation and jogged back to my apartment. I put my key in the door and raced upstairs.

"I'm home Mrs. T. One of my friends is coming over." I called.

"Have fun. In here if you need me."

I opened my door and ran to my closet. I changed into light blue skinny jeans and a red t-shirt. I let my hair down and checked myself in the mirror.

Why I need to impress Kai is a mystery.

I reapplied my mascara and eyeliner before hearing the buzzer in my sound system ring.

"It's Kai." The buzzer rang.

I pressed the intercom and spoke through to the front enterance.

"Come in."

I cleaned up my desk and shoved my sketchbooks to the side and prepared for Kai. I opened my balcony doors for the breeze to seep into the room.

My door opened to reveal a spikey haired guy in a red sweatshirt.

"Hey Kai."

"Hey (Y/N)."

"How are you?"

"Good. Are you okay?" I asked.

"I'm fine. But are you okay? Because last time I heard from you, you didn't sound so well."

"Uh-well I guess I'm okay."

"Hey what's this?" Kai questioned.

He was looking at my sketchbooks on the edge of my desk.

"Nothing!"

I ran and tried to put away the sketchbooks.

Kai put his hand on my shoulder and turned me to face him.

"Hey hey hey. Calm down. What's wrong?"

"Kai-- well- my parents were both in the art industry, and I was the studio artist. But- when my grandmother left, I lost my inspiration." I said sadly.

Kai took the sketchbooks out of my hands and flipped through the pages. Every single one was filled. No space left empty.

"These are amazing." he said in aw.

A blush creeped on my cheeks.

Snap out of it (Y/N)! He'll never like you!

Kai's cheeks turned red the minute he saw mine.

I turned away.

"So, how is everyone?" I asked.

"Jay is, well, annoying. But other than that, they all say hi."

"Oh, tell them I said hi too."

"Will do my little picasso."

I chuckled. Something I haven't done in a long time.

"Hey, if you're ever sad, you know I'll be there. What are best friends for?"

I sighed.

"You're right. Thanks."

"No problem."

No one's POV

All Kai could think about was (Y/N). Even when he left. He liked her as more than a friend. But he knew that she could never consider him anything else. Especially when what she needed was a friend.

But what both kids didn't know was that they both liked each other. But they didn't think the same about each other.

Kai just wanted to be there for (Y/N), be a friend when she's hurt. And (Y/N) wants to be someone special to Kai.

Will both friends share their feelings?
