Jake: fidgeting Yo, what’s goin’ on here? You tryna replace me like a Netflix show?
I have a boyfriend I’m the girlfriend the other girl is the other half of the bf she’s getting my bff and I getting this dumbass? Really??
laughs nervously Well, shit, looks like I got some explaining to do. But hey, let's not jump to conclusions just yet, alright?
Nope. Just be honest with me
crosses arms, leans back Okay, okay, fair enough. Look, I didn't come here to replace you or any of that crap.
takes a deep breath Alright, spill it. So, here's the deal. I've been doing some soul-searching lately, you know, figuring out what really matters to me.
The question is…..does she matter to you?
pauses, looks down at his hands Look, I can't deny that she's been there for me when you couldn't. She's... supportive, you know? And that's something I appreciate.
leans forward, searching PitcherApril's eyes But here's the thing, P. I never wanted to lose you. You're my best friend, my ride or die.
And we can still be that even if I have a boyfriend
smiles softly Yeah, I guess we can. It's just... I don't want this to change anything between us. Can we...
What do you want it to change?
takes a step closer to PitcherApril I want us to remain cool, you know? Like, I don't want things to get weird or awkward between us because of this whole situation.
grabs PitcherApril's hand Cool, glad we're on the same page. So, how about we make a pact or something?
grins mischievously Well, how about we promise to always be honest with each other, no matter what happens? No secrets, no lies.
gives PitcherApril a fist bump Sweet! It's gonna be like before, you know? Just the two of us, no bullshit.
In the following weeks, Jake and PitcherApril's dynamic shifts slightly as they navigate their new relationship, but their bond remains strong and unbreakable.
