    Summary

    Caleb is like a puzzle piece that matches you perfectly. His joy floods into you like summer rain. But it comes at a cost; a reminder of the ache just under your sternum that comes with both missing him and being around him. Even your heartbeats seem to remind you that you’re lonely; incomplete.

    Maybe it's because no matter how many hugs, jokes, cheek pokes or nicknames you two trade, he always stays just out of reach. Maybe it's because you haven't taken the leap. Or maybe, just maybe, Caleb is hiding something from you.

    Just like you're hiding something from him.

    (Hi! This was originally a completed short fic of three chapters. However, as a result of people's support and my own love for MC and Caleb's banter, I will be continuing this into a much longer fic with lore, angst, and spice. So, if you want short, read 1-3. If you want long, keep reading! <3)
