It's my wedding weekend, and I've just been left at the altar. Or when Erin had showed back up in my life, six months ago, and me told it was time to marry, and start a family.īut, for the first time in my life, I'm facing something that's not at all easy. Or when I'd used the one thing that came easy to me, skiing, to get my college tuition paid for. Or when I'd needed a date to homecoming in 10th grade, and Erin told me she was it. Like when Julian Thick had offered me half his sandwich, back in grade school, after noticing I didn't have any food. Just not as happy as he could be with me. I know he'll be happy with Erin, just not. He's gone and gotten engaged to his high-school sweetheart - which means I have to grin and bear it, while pretending to be the happy, supportive best man, while he prepares to commit his life to a woman I can't even fault.

And that makes it difficult to convince him that the two of us are meant to be together.Īnd now, there's no point. The problem is that Parker Ellis has been straight since forever. It started out platonic, obviously, but then became.

I've been in love with my best friend since forever.
