Do yall think that someday down the road that, as it happens in the books apparently, when Garrett and Logan’s kids fall in love and start dating that those two start to wonder? Would they take all those feelings out of the tiny box it had been shoved into?
Would they wonder if that could’ve been them if they had given it a chance? If they put their hearts on the line instead of keeping it close to their chests?
Would Garrett think that maybe he wasn’t imagining the look in Logan’s eyes all those times when he thought Garrett couldn’t see him?
And would Logan think that maybe if he put himself first and said what he wanted that Garrett maybe would’ve said yes?
Would they think that maybe they had almost made it, made it past best friends, the person the other relied on the most, who was their other half and become all of that but also being the person they fell asleep next to each night and they would wake with the next morning? The person they would swear to love through sickness and in health, till death to they part?
Do you think wonder that maybe the wouldn’t be texting each other “dude” or “bro” but “baby” and “gorgeous”. Do you think they look at their wives and throw box and all its feelings away into the attic? Do you think they go to sleep next to women they’re not sure they loved in anyway past platonic and try their damned hardest not to imagine what their life could’ve looked like?
Do you think they see each other at their kids wedding and smile and joke like they aren’t seeing ghosts of what would’ve, could’ve , and should’ve been?
