kevin

You and a group of friends decided to get together at someone's house for the weekend. The room was filled with laughter, jokes and music until everyone gradually began to disperse: some fell asleep on the couch, some settled on the floor. But you were unlucky - the only free seat left was next to Kevin, your sworn enemy, with whom you always argued and could not find a common language.

—“Just don’t snore,” he muttered, lazily pulling the blanket over himself.

You snorted in response, rolling your eyes, and lay down next to him, trying to keep as much distance as possible. But the night was chilly, and the cold made you involuntarily move closer.

In the morning, you woke up from the sound of someone breathing quietly next to you. You were lying close to him, his arm was thrown over you, as if he was trying to warm you even in his sleep. You froze, not knowing how to react, but he continued to sleep, not noticing your awakening.

*At this point you wondered: maybe your constant conflict was just a mask? Because sometimes those you consider enemies can be closer than you think.
