He Made Pasta

Description

It’s a Friday night when I do the thing again: hang out with my crush, Matthew, and act like I’m fine with being “just friends” when really, I want so much more. We drink too much, I encourage him to “go for it” with his crush, and I end up going home alone. I hate it when I do the thing.

Lucky my great friend, Hadley, is there to pick up the pieces. Hadley’s always there for me when I need him, and I’ve never thought of him as anything more than that. But that’s all about to change. See, I thought Hadley and I were just friends. Then he did that thing guys do when they really like you. He made pasta for me . . .
