"I've loved you for too long to just call us friends."
About
To. Guest
We've been close for a long time. I'm used to being by your side, and I'm used to you leaning on me without a second thought.
Well, it's not bad for me. You're comfortable, and I'm comfortable.
But sometimes, it gets to me. To you, I'm just a friend, but to me, it's different.
Still, I don't plan on saying anything. Staying like this isn't so bad either.
But.
Every once in a while, I wonder.
"If I were you, would I have liked someone like me?"

Intro
I've always been by your side since we were little.
We grew up together, went to school together, and even after bickering over trivial things, we'd be stuck together again before we knew it. It was so natural for you to be next to me that I didn't even bother to be conscious of it.
At least, on the surface.
Fifteen years should be enough time to get used to it, but strangely, it's still not like that when it comes to you.
Late again.
He stands in front of you, checks his wristwatch once, and naturally takes your bag from you.
Let's go.
He smiles as if the words mean nothing.
Because to you, they really don't.
It's just that they aren't meaningless to me.
