“Jeff! What the fuck, bro?” Garrett shouted to a man who came and stole my bag.
The man was face tatted and he turned around stopping his way out of the store. He looked older, and he was extremely pale. He saw Garrett and he smiled getting back to us.
“Man, What are you doing here?” He said with a raspy and calmed voice.
“Um, you just took my girlfriend’s bag.” Garrett answer pointing at the bag that was hanging from his hand and Brendan cough. I turned to see Brendan and he looked nervous. Jeff laughed and gave it back to me.
“I’m sorry.” He apologized and I smiled turning to see Garrett nervously. He held my hand and continued talking.
“Oh love, He is Jeff. I met him when I got in jail, He helped me a lot.” Garrett introduced me to him and I nodded.
“So, You are the girl?” Jeff asked and before any of us could answer someone shouted.
“Y/n!” We all turned around and I moved to see who was, even when I recognized the voice already.
Sam raised his hand and told something to Stass who was with him. Then they held each other’s hand and walked our way. I let go of Garrett’s hand and walked to meet them in the middle of the store. They both hugged me.
“Hey, Is everything fine?” Stass asked before Sammy said something.
“This will sound weird, but I thought you’ll be worse.” Sammy answered and Stass nodded.
“Well, first that Nate dropped that video with that girl. And then, what he is doing with her.” Stass stayed serious. “You are beautiful, Y/N. Don’t let that girl make you feel less. I always would choose you no matter what, ok?” She hugged me and Sammy smiled.
“The video?” I asked confused. “Thanks for the compliment, but I have no-”
“Nate got you in a trap. You don’t need to feel bad, like Stass says. Nate one day says he loves you, and the other he is presenting that thing like his girlfriend. I told him I was mad with him, but he was too high in that moment.” Sam interrupted and I felt more nervous and confused even.
“Oh, true.” I murmured and looked down.
“Wait, Stass, Can I talk to you before you go?” She nodded and she took me away from all of them. Once we weren’t too close of them, I asked. “What the hell happened with Nate?”
She looked at me confused and her look turned to be serious.
“What?” She asked, but she had an idea what I meant. “You had no idea about the Nate thing?”
“I went to Atlanta with Brendan, and when I came back, you told me this. What happened?”
“He dropped the OTP video. And let’s just say he was with a girl on camera. Then he came home and introduced her like they’ve been dating for months. She says she lives in Los Angeles, and they say they met there.” Stass said and I felt weird. What happened with him?
“Did he mention something about me?” I asked and tried to hide how I truly felt.
“To me nothing, but I heard he told Sam that he didn’t like to have a relationship in Omaha and he thought that if he asked you to move with him to LA, you’d say no and that all his job was there.” She said and I knew she was hiding more, but she tried to make it less painful.
“So, he ended everything like this?” I asked and she nodded slowly.
“Hey, you are worth of something better and I’m sure you’ll find someone who loves you. You are beautiful, I told you.” She said and hugged me. “Sam thought at first he was your boyfriend and that’s why you were holding hands. ” She continued pointing Garrett.
“Come on, he keeps glancing at you and I saw the way you looked at each other when we went to snowboarding.” She continued and I laughed. “Y/n, I didn’t see you blushing before!”
“Shut up, don’t talk about it.” I answer playfully and she hugged me again.
“I want to see you happy. Now, let’s go for Sam and you introduce me your boy properly.” She smiled and we went back with Sam who looked carefully the Christmas sweaters.
“You are alone?” Sammy asked once he saw us.
“No, she is here with the guy of the other day.” Stass smiled and I giggle.
“Come, I’ll introduce you.” I said and they followed me.
We arrived and Garrett was still talking to Jeff. Caitlin and Brendan were hugging while he murmured her something and she laughed.
“Guys.” I announced and they all saw me. Brendan turned to see me raising his eyebrows and pointing to Sam and Stass.
“Who are your friends?” Caitlin asked and I nodded.
“Yes, um, Sam and his girlfriend Stassie.” I introduced them and they smiled. “Nate’s friends.” I ended and Brendan made an ‘understanding smirk’ -like he said- looking at me. “And he is my brother Brendan, his girlfriend Caitlin and-” I stopped and turned to see Garrett.
I remembered Nate and what he said to Sam. Was I really another girl with the one he could play with?
“He is Garrett, my boyfriend. And Jeff, a friend of the family.” I ended and Sam smiled nodding.
Garrett smiled too and grabbed my hand. Stass looked lovely to Sam and they said goodbye hugging me again.
