My ht?

As her words sink in, h the fantasies I’ve had about Hannah these past fewhonest, most of theuy and she’s hot And she’s also around all the ties for my spank bank But aside from a few naked fantasies, I usually picture PG scenarios Like I’ll see her and Garrett snuggling on the couch and wish I was in his place

But…aeneral?

"Look, I like you, Logan I really do You’re funny and sweet, and you’re a sarcastic jackass, which is a quality I happen to love in a guy But you don’t…" She looks uncouess that’s the best way to put it No, not even that" Her voice takes on a faraway note "When I’m with Garrett, my whole world comes alive I’m so full of emotion I feel liketo sound like an exaggeration or maybe kind of obsessive, but soen" She gazes into ulp

"Ao to bed and the first one you think about when you wake up?"

I don’t answer

"Am I?" she pushes

Does he honestly believe I’d ever, everthat tells me the state of our friendship is evenhard, I shuffle over to him "Listen…I’m sorry I’ve been such a dick lately I was…distracted"
