Crystal

Jesus. You’re taking Nevada’s advice, aren’t you? Fuck buddies won’t work, mark my words, bud

Me

It’s not about the sex, she’s fucking amazing, Crys, I can’t even describe it

Crystal

Aww, Bronco’s in lovvvvve

Me

I’m not in love. I’m not even sure if I’m capable of love, but this is a different feeling

Crystal

Does your heart quicken whenever she walks into a room?

Me

Yeah…

Crystal

Do you think about her all day every day? And when you’re away from her, you’re counting down the minutes when you’ll see her again?

Me

Maybe

Crystal

When she’s in your arms, you feel a contentment that you can’t describe?

Me

Okay, fuck off now

Crystal

LOL you’re in love

Me

FFS, don’t tell her that, she’ll run a mile

Crystal

I’m insulted. I pinkie promised, didn’t I?

I run a hand through my hair, my heart thrumming in my chest at her suggestion. I’ve felt differently about Amber for a while now, if I’m being honest with myself. While a feral, possessive part of me wants to take her and make her mine, the best friend inside me is saying she’s not ready for that.

Me

I don’t know what it is, but let me figure it out without you interfering, got me?

Crystal
